British Rail Class X

Per consensus (or rather lack of consensus for anything else), all trains in use on the British network are called "British Rail Class X", eg the new Turbostars are BR Class 172. I accept BR doesn't exist anymore, but this is the way we classify them on Wikipedia. If you wish to argue this (really, please don't, it will go nowhere, very very slowly) take it up at WT:UKRAIL. -mattbuck (Talk) 02:24, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Logistics

Howdy. Thanks for spotting the copyright problem with the material at Logistics. After reviewing the book, which was self-published through Lulu on 4/11/2011, this appears to be an all too frequent occurrence of someone stealing from Wikipedia - the material in question certainly existed before "publication", and has organically grown on the page. It looks like you were in the process of making improvements and trying to source the material; great job - I'll try to help. There's also a template for reverse copyright vios; I'll try to find it and add it to the talk page. Kuru (talk) 13:15, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And "Age of Humans" is also an opinion because no lore in the game (Dark Souls) mentions Age of Humans. So in turn, I've removed all interpretation from that article. As for KUF2, all the information was referenced. --82.12.216.204 (talk) 13:04, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

NSB Di 6

As far as I am aware, everything in the GA review has been seen to. Could you please either elaborate any further issues or pass the article. Thanks, Arsenikk ^(talk) 10:11, 27 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have now found another person willing to take a second view of the article, but you have to say what it is you want a second opinion of on the review page. As I have stated before, if you feel the article meets the criteria, just go along and pass it. If you're wondering about the technicalities, I can explain it straight and simple, but I cannot pass it myself, as I am the nominator. If you feel the article is lacking something, please be specific about it. If you want a second opinion, please ask the other non-railfan editor who has volunteered. Arsenikk ^(talk) 23:05, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please pass the article now. Both you and the second opinion agree as to the article meeting the criteria. To pass the article:

Make a statement on the review page that you pass the article (Talk:NSB Di 6/GA1)
On the article's talk page (Talk:NSB Di 6) replace {{GA nominee}} with {{GA|~~~~~|topic=Transport|page=1}} (at the absolute top of the page)
Add the article to the appropriate list at Wikipedia:Good articles/Engineering and technology

Bots will do the remainder of the work. Thank you, Arsenikk ^(talk) 10:58, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Logistics

I agree with you about the deletion of the 1st, 2nd and 4th party logistics articles. But third-party logistics has had over 400 edits and lots of incoming links. If you really think it should be deleted, it needs an AfD. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:54, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

along with RHaworth, I thing many of your proposed deletions in the field are articles that could not stand by themselves, and are better deleted until someone really cares for write about them; but others have sone promise. This is a field where we have very little coverage -- and we do need to encourage work in it. You've done some good clean up -- now perhaps also some positive improvement?

Over categorisation Category:Logistics in the United Kingdom

Hi, I hope that this finds you well! I note that you have been adding your new category Category:Logistics in the United Kingdom to a lot of existing articles, especially those to do with the rail industry. I'd suggest that inline with WP:MOS you only add the category to articles where the rail yard is also a road transport point, and not ust a rail freight yard. The existing category Category:Rail yards in the United Kingdom covers all rail freight yard articles. The result of your current activity is gross over categorisation. I have hence: (1) added the category to Category:Rail yards in the United Kingdom; (2) removed the category where you added it to yards that are rail freight only.

Magna Park, Milton Keynes

Just for the record, I originally created the article as a redirect, but found that the geodata wasn't appearing in the title line. Putting some text there made it happen. Now that you've reverted, it's gone again. I agree completely that it doesn't deserve an article (other that it is one of a chain of Magna Parks) but as it puts quite a splodge on maps it ought to have a wikipedia tag. So do you know how else to assert the geodata in #redirect articles? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 17:04, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Google says that if it is in the top left hand corner, they will pick it up. But when you click on google's wikipedia tag, you get the lede - except redirects don't have one.

I don't like your kludge of sticking the geodata at the beginning of a section in the Wavendon article, I'm definitely undoing that. I'l reinstate the Magna Park article as a tight stub with a 'see Wavendon'. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 19:21, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Railway accidents in Vietnam / Rail transport in Vietnam

Thanks so much for your kind comments about Railway accidents in Vietnam and Rail transport in Vietnam! I've worked a lot on both articles and have been working on getting the former ready for GA status-- you can see my progress in that article's peer review. I've had to put my work on WP to the side for the past little while due to personal time commitments, but your note inspired me to put a little more effort in. I don't really know what's involved in GA nomination apart from addressing issues raised in peer review, but I'm willing to help put finishing touches on both articles if you think they'd be ready. I'll keep a watchful eye on them in the next couple of months. I did fix one little point on the "accidents" article relating to the Hai Van Pass, but apart from that, I'm not aware of anything missing in that article. The "rail transport" article, on the other hand, still has a couple of definite shortcomings, mainly surrounding the structure of Vietnam Railways (the company) and a few historical points. If you'd like to discuss these a little more, I'd welcome the opportunity, as I'm neither an expert on rail transport nor on the GA process.

Cheers and thank you once again! --dragfyre_ʞןɐʇc 05:52, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I should appeal because in reality it is me who is being harrassed by the arseholes at wikiproject aircraft, who are undoing all the perfectly reasonable work that I did on the categories. I guess that because they are clearly children or at least have the mentality of children I will just have to take the shit (as usual) because nobody else has enough self respect to tell them to fuck off. Please see Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2012_March_2#Category:Unmanned_aerial_vehicles_by_manufacturer and tell me that's a good faith category merge request.
