Favourite quotes
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. ... If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.
— Steve Jobs, Speech to Stanford grads in 2005

Things to do
These are not necessarily agreed to by other editors but they are things I want to discuss and/or implement depending on what other editors say.
- Merge Toyota Hilux Surf with Toyota 4Runner.
- Merge Toyota Celica XX and Toyota Supra with Toyota Celica.
- Merge Toyota Mark II, Toyota Cressida, Toyota Chaser and Toyota Cresta.
- Clean up Toyota Celica (many wrong facts and confusing wording).
- Clean up Toyota Carina (show how it shares the Celica and Corona platforms).
- Merge Toyota Corona T190, Toyota Corona EXiV with Toyota Corona.
- Document Toyota specials (eg police cars, ambulances) based on early chassis.
- Document reason for Corolla/Sprinter differences and merge the articles.
- Add US vehicles to worldwide Toyota timelines and then replace US only timeline in most Toyota articles.
- Clarify calendar year vs model year in Toyota articles.
- Add months to production start/end dates - also avoids confusion between calendar years and model years.
- Add months to engine application dates - also avoids confusion between calendar years and model years.
- Change Toyota GR engine to use calendar month/years instead US specific model years.
- Add 'Features at a glance' to every Toyota engine article. Need to figure out suitable format/template first.
- Gather every Toyota concept vehicle ever shown into common pages per decade. Eg Toyota concept vehicles, 2000-2009. Some entries might be just a
{{main}}
link to another article. - Disambiguate $ to
{{USD}}
. - Make templates for all currencies (or use
{{currency}}
). - All international Toyota articles to use
{{convert}}
for all units and to show SI units first. - Toyota i-unit and Toyota i-Swing
