EMD BB40-2[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Plenty of photos and Youtubes about the EMD BB40-2, but no reliable secondary sources I could find. Fails WP:V. Since 2007. Rhadow (talk) 20:45, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect to EMD SD40-2. As a rebuild it should be covered there. Has the nominator tried to find Portuguese-language (i.e. Brazilian) sources? - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 23:08, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect is fine with me. I am happy to accept evidence in languages other than English. I reject the notion that an English language editor should have to do WP:BEFORE in random languages. Not in this case, but in another, I am told that it is obvious that references will be found in Sinhalese for articles unsupported for nine years. That's why I am sensitive.

- That's understandable, but the fact remains that if something is notable it's notable, regardless of the language that sources are in. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 23:59, 2 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect - I can't find any significant sources either - but in this case we only need one. It apparently does exist, based on these photos.[[1]] TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 21:55, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
