==Warranty article==

Hi Nelson, just wanted to let you know that I've moved your article into your [[Jargon_buster|userspace]] at [[User:NelsonTKanda/California_Lemon_Law:_How_I_won_my_warranty_arbitration_against_Toyota_despite_the_odds.]] since it doesn't fit as a regular wiki article for a number of reasons, the primary one being that it is discussing your personal experience, and is therefore [[Consumer_Rights_Wiki:Wiki_content_policies|original research]]. We're happy for you to keep it there and continue working on it and sharing it to people as a personal project, but it doesn't belong in the mainspace of the wiki. [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 11:06, 21 May 2026 (UTC)

:As an addendum:

:While your personal experience with the california lemon law probably won't fit the wiki, you might be interested in [[Projects:Laws]], which aims to get articles written about various pieces of consumer rights legislation. We don't currently have an article on the California Lemon Law, so that could be a very helpful addition!

:The [[Toyota]] article is also in need of a bit of a clean-up, if you're more interested in having a go there. [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 11:18, 21 May 2026 (UTC)

::Sure thing,

::Do you have any recommendations? I can start working on some stuff for Project:Laws as well.

::thanks,

:::As in for the Toyota article? i think the main thing there would be fleshing out the introduction a bit, and seeing if any of the listed incidents either have enough info for their own page, or need a bit more detail. also maybe worth looking into the 'crash protection' thing and seeing whethher it actually needs to be there. I would assume the reason that side of the car has more protection is taht it's the side closest to the centre of the road, and most likely to experience a head-on collision. Seems like a design thing in any case rather than a consumer rights thing, but it's worth looking into in case that isn't the case.

:::For project laws, the only rec I'd have is to check around the other pages about laws, and see how they're structured, what you like about them, etc. before going about making one - always helps to see what other pages are doing.
