Stop it

You've gone on a mass redirecting spree, both unilaterally deleting practically every regional railway station and creating redirects where there should be redlinks. There is a long-standing consensus that these articles are notable, as there's abundant sources: hell, to show how arbitrary this was, a bunch of the articles you randomly decided to redirect were buildings on the Register of the National Estate. In any case, if you want to change that longstanding precedent, please go and actually get a consensus, instead of making a complete bloody mess. If you a pull a stunt like this again, you can expect to be blocked. Rebecca (talk) 01:13, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've just realised the sheer extent of the mess you've created - you've redirected every single railway-related redlink in the entire state, including entire suburban lines. This is an incredibly controversial thing to do without so much as a word beforehand, and it's going to take me the rest of the morning to clean up. As such, I've blocked you for 24 hours as a warning not to do something like this again. Rebecca (talk) 01:26, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If you look at what I have actually done you stupid bloody idiot you will realise that I have added rail station related info on the town or city pages on most of the stations I have redirected to. Go ahead and revert it you bloody self righteous idiot. I don't see any reason why rail station info can not be put on a town's page with a redirect to it. At least I am adding constructive info. Take a look at Bowning, New South Wales, Towrang, New South Wales‎, Breadalbane, New South Wales‎, Moree, New South Wales‎ etc etc. This is has been a NSW convention, what are you a bloody Victorian or something? I object to my sanctimonoius blocking and am going to take this further.Quaidy (talk) 10:27, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You made somewhere in the vicinity of a hundred redirects which you knew to both be controversial and against longstanding precedent, causing a huge mess took ages to clean up. If you want to get a consensus to not have articles on these topics, as we already have in other states, then get it. Trying to make an exception for NSW by force is just disrupting the project.

  • I redirected blank, let me repeat, blank, pages to other pages with info on them. Did I remove anyones work? No. I'm not saying that these stations should not have their own stand alone articles, it is just that there is not enough information on any of them that anyone but me has contributed to make a stand alone article worthwhile. Until such time arises, it seems much more logical to have a redirect to the town page with station information on that page. You have gone and blocked me for something that only you and I are disagreeing on, some admin you are. By the look of your talk page, you have a history of this. I'm thinking of leaving anyway becasue I don't appear to have a personality disorder large enough to put up with this sort of crap.Quaidy (talk) 11:04, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

This block is completely unjustified- I have added rail station related info in good faith to varoius NSW town pages and redirected uncreated rail station links to the town pages, because at this stage there doesn't seen to be enough info to create stand alone railway station pages for many minor railway stations in NSW, especially those that have been closed, and no-one else seems interested in creating any of these pages at this stage. This block seems a little vindictive from someone who has made no effort to contribute info to these topics.

Decline reason:
