May I alert you to a discussion on merging Ondine (Sir Frederick Ashton ballet) into Ondine (Henze)! — Robert Greer ( talk) 18:40, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm not going to add any more to the template, originally I was only going to add the loop and Spilsby branch, but then thought adding the Cleethorpes and Skegness sections gave a better indication of how it fitted into the system without too much more work. Glad to see someone else adding railway stuff :) -- Bedders ( talk) 06:32, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
Hi,
I'd like to very gently challenge your route box for Shottle Railway Station. Although not passenger-carrying, the line between Idridgehay and Duffield is operational for vehicle testing. I would suggest that 'disused' isn't quite accurate.
If you were going to do any editing or merging of records associated with the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway (saw the SuggestBot entry), could I work with you on them? I'll put my hand up to being a director of the railway and am keen to make sure that the information concerned with the line is as accurate as possible.

Hi Scillystuff,
re. Cromford Wharf Shed on the HPR template, this is the name of the shed at today's High Peak Junction, and part of that complex. It is a bit confusing, as I have learned, but it's not on Cromford Wharf, so this, I think, should simply be "Cromford Wharf".
But talking of Cromford Wharf, this was largely isolated after the connection of HPR to the mainline, which is in the opposite direction!
Also, I've been checking up, and in Rimmer's definitive work, I really feel we should keep High Peak Junction as being the actual junction - since it's an historical template - not the name used today for Cromford Goods. (I might need to make this clearer on the HPJ page.)
Originally the line would simply have gone Sheep Pasture -> Cromford Wharf It then went Sheep Pasture -> Cromford Goods -> High Peak (actual) Junction
But we still need to show the original Cromford Wharf which was abandoned after mainline connection!
I can't use these template things, but to show it all I think it should go like this ...
Sheep Pasture incline
>>
Cromford Goods Yard (today known as High Peak Junction) showing siding off
>>
Cromford Wharf (original terminus) shown on a side branch off
>>
High Peak Junction (the actual junction - from where the Derwent Line goes off in both directions)
Does that seem to make sense? Is this possible to do it like this?
Cheers,

Hi. Thanks for the addition on the Old Ship. I saw the legend on the pub last night, but didn't photograph it or copy it down as I believed (wrongly) it was already on the page. Oops.-- Storye book ( talk) 11:31, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Hi,
The URL for this article needs changing to reflect Donington-on-Bain GNR station. As it is it conflicts with Donington LNW station in Shropshire, for which no article yet exists. The link in the List of Closed station from Donington points to this article while that from Donington-on-Bain shows no article existing, so that also needs changing. (PS Donington LNW station was spelled wrong in the closed stations list and I have now changed it to Donnington)
I'd make the change myself but I'm just starting out with wiki, I'm not sure how to do this yet and I don't want to muck up your article!! Do you simply need to cut and paste the whole article across to a new article linking from Donington-on-Bain and delete that for Donington?

From its own Wikipedia article:
'Although the Humber is an estuary from the point at which it is formed, many maps show it as the River Humber.'
It meets the definition of an Estuary as it is formed from several rivers (Ouse, Trent amongst others) and it has an open mouth into the North Sea, and I was always taught at school that it is wrong to call it a river even though it is thought that 'Humber' (or something similar) meant river.
Looking at Encyclopedia Britannica they have it called the River Humber but classed as an Estuary | Mirriam Webster seems to have it as an Estuary too, I admit that OS maps say river, I don't think in a technical sense it is, unless it's name is the River Humber but that's a misnomer and it is actually an estuary.

Thanks for your message on my talk page, I have now put the brakes on, but thanks for your concern. To be honest I hadn't realised quite how many edits I had made until Kleinzach pointed it out. But as I said on the article talk page, I'm going to make a concious effort to consolidate my contributions into fewer edits, and I WILL remember to start putting a description in the edit summary as well. At the moment I am in the process of creating new articles about Julia Farron and some of the other dancers who danced in the original production, and then I will link to them, but I will make sure to do them ALL at the same time.

No please do not de-merge. Read your own links please.
WP:Notability : The stations have not received any significant coverage in reliable sources indepedant of subject - if fact there is little information in sources directly related to the topic. To put it simply the article are very unlikely to progress beyond a stub at any point in the future.
Also Help:Merging first paragraph - reason for merge "minimal content that could be covered in or requires the context of a page on a broader topic." - this is an exact match for the situation.
Also Wikipedia:Merging#Rationale "Text – If a page is very short and is unlikely to be expanded within a reasonable amount of time, it often makes sense to merge it with a page on a broader topic"
Please don't waste my time with blanket statements such as "All stations are notable" and then link to pages ( WP:Notability and WP:MM) that shows that the articles needed merging anyway. Shortfatlad ( talk) 19:33, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
Also please see the essay Wikipedia:Notability (Railway lines and stations). Thanks. Shortfatlad ( talk) 19:37, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
The reason I keep telling you; you are wrong; is that someparts of what you are doing is wrong - for example you've made some short articles about railway stations, but no article about the line it's on or other related railway info.. If you think about it you are recreating a directory of railway stations such as Butt, R.V.J. (1995). The Directory of Railway Stations. .. but Wikipedia:Not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_directory - its good that we have all those station articles for future use but I think you need to discard any idea that a complete set of articles for each station is the best way to organise. Shortfatlad ( talk) 01:33, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
Also you talked about precedents for notability of geographic articles - there's some info here Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Precedents#Geography_and_astronomy and also Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Common_outcomes#Transportation. The essay Wikipedia:Inclusion is not an indicator of notability also clarifies a bit. Though I don't think any UK station would ever need total deletion as most would be relevant information within the scope of another article. So it's probably not important.
My opinion on the way wikiprojectUK railways should proceed is to follow the global wikipedia policy and guidelines rather than attempt to make any sort of special rules for railway articles. AND attempt to write good articles. However if you want to get proper clarification on policys the place to take it is Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy), if you want to make a new policy, such as establishing that all xxx are notable I think that is the same place to start. Shortfatlad ( talk) 03:28, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

What sharp eyes you have, tho yr edit summary was a bit confusing. It's strange to me that, although railway line templates sensibly do not allow for number of tracks, roads crossing them are shown as thick or thin.-- SilasW ( talk) 10:33, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your message. I don't move stuff often, but I did look for a move tab and did not find one. I did also move another article in the same series of edits, which was to move the article about River Calder, West Australia away from where it was, which was River Calder. Maybe you could look at it for me? It seems, by the way, that a lot of confusion is coming from the way British place names tend to use the reverse word order to "New World" rivers, so Americans or Australians searching for "Calder River" (not "River Calder") would have got the impression there was no article about any of the rivers of that name in Britain. So hopefully I have done more good than harm! :) Most of what I did in this series of edits was improving the disambiguation page and adding more wikilinks and redirects, but those two moves seemed necessary to get the job finished off.-- Andrew Lancaster ( talk) 09:31, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Common outcomes#Education states that verifiable high schools are generally kept and that primary schools that "don't source a clear claim to notability" are usually merged to either its school district in North America or to the appropriate lowest level locality - that would be a civil parish in the UK. -- Kudpung ( talk) 11:47, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
PTE's are and except between 1974-1986 have always been half of a binary organisation (WYPTE wasnt created till a few years after the others so it might have been very brief, in fact the change that created it may have also been what abolished the other authorities I dont know exactly). The Executive arm does the spending and day to day management, West Yorkshires, the WYPTE has always existed since the met county was created. However all PTE's work under an ITA made up of councillors from the member Boroughs (or in Strathyclydes case the Unitary Authorities) which sets policy, controls the budget and provides accountability. For more info see the Passenger Transport Executive page or http://www.wyita.gov.uk/about . The name change on the page refers the Passenger Transport Authority name changing to Integrated Transport Authority, its not refering to any name change in the Executive. However when you think of PTE/ITA's you must always think of them as binary organisations with the ITA forming the head and the PTE the body and working as one.

What sharp eyes you have, tho yr edit summary was a bit confusing. It's strange to me that, although railway line templates sensibly do not allow for number of tracks, roads crossing them are shown as thick or thin.-- SilasW ( talk) 10:33, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
Rasta Thomas will turn 30 years old on July 18, 2011, and I would LOVE for him to be the featured article of the day on that day. I'm calling foryou your help to join in on taking this article to greatness, and giving Rasta a little love.--Esprit15d • talk • contribs 20:45, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your message. I don't move stuff often, but I did look for a move tab and did not find one. I did also move another article in the same series of edits, which was to move the article about River Calder, West Australia away from where it was, which was River Calder. Maybe you could look at it for me? It seems, by the way, that a lot of confusion is coming from the way British place names tend to use the reverse word order to "New World" rivers, so Americans or Australians searching for "Calder River" (not "River Calder") would have got the impression there was no article about any of the rivers of that name in Britain. So hopefully I have done more good than harm! :) Most of what I did in this series of edits was improving the disambiguation page and adding more wikilinks and redirects, but those two moves seemed necessary to get the job finished off.-- Andrew Lancaster ( talk) 09:31, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

I cannot agree with text description of the location of Eccleshill railway station. Eccleshill does not have a 'High Street' or an 'Oddfellows Hall' whereas Idle does. The given coordinates of the former station where Summerbridge Crescent is now, are correct. Stuffed cat ( talk) 20:56, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Common outcomes#Education states that verifiable high schools are generally kept and that primary schools that "don't source a clear claim to notability" are usually merged to either its school district in North America or to the appropriate lowest level locality - that would be a civil parish in the UK. -- Kudpung ( talk) 11:47, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
PTE's are and except between 1974-1986 have always been half of a binary organisation (WYPTE wasnt created till a few years after the others so it might have been very brief, in fact the change that created it may have also been what abolished the other authorities I dont know exactly). The Executive arm does the spending and day to day management, West Yorkshires, the WYPTE has always existed since the met county was created. However all PTE's work under an ITA made up of councillors from the member Boroughs (or in Strathyclydes case the Unitary Authorities) which sets policy, controls the budget and provides accountability. For more info see the Passenger Transport Executive page or http://www.wyita.gov.uk/about . The name change on the page refers the Passenger Transport Authority name changing to Integrated Transport Authority, its not refering to any name change in the Executive. However when you think of PTE/ITA's you must always think of them as binary organisations with the ITA forming the head and the PTE the body and working as one.

I've noticed that you've redirected a link on the page concerning crossings of the Mon River. Despite the confusion on maps, the C. Vance DeiCas Bridge is not the same as the historic Charleroi-Monessen Bridge. It is actually this bland 1957s struture [1]. I've readded the link and the appropriate page.
