Talk:Purple Line (Namma Metro)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:


 * http://www.railway-technology.com/projects/bangalore_metro/
 * Triggered by  on the local blacklist

Edit War
Please stop edit warring over that content, and having your "discussion" in edit summaries. It is obvious you two disagree on that content. The correct response is not to keep reverting each other, but to have that discussion here. So please do that. Note that even if you do not breach 3RR, you can still be blocked for edit warring, and the page can be locked down until you come to a consensus with everyone else who watches this page. I'm sure nobody wants to have to escalate to that level, so how about a discussion? Crow  Caw 19:44, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi, Crow. I have asked the editor to engage in discussion, unfortunately they do not seem to be interested. In the 5 year history of this article, that editor's sole edits to this article are to undo my edits. Initially, it was claimed that content was removed due to WP:NOTNEWS. This is, frankly, a statement with no merit at all and I explained so in an edit summary. How can someone possibly claim that content sourced from a technical engineering report reads like a newspaper article? Even more baffling is the fact that my edits added the first non-newspaper source to this article. How is it possible that an article that was entirely sourced from newspapers doesnt fail WP:NOTNEWS, but the moment a project report is added, it apparently does? Perhaps, the editor realized that and then on their second revert, claimed the exact same content had to be removed because its an WP:ESSAY issue. As I said on the editor's talk page, he should first make up his own mind as to why exactly why he wants the content removed, and then we can discuss what needs to be done.


 * Also, and I genuinely dont want to say this, but I feel I have to. When most humans speak to me, the first thing they say is "hello", or "how do you do". That editor's first ever statement to me on wikipedia is to threaten a block, describe my edits as "crap", and inform me that "wikipedia is not the place for me". Apologies, but I do not wish to spend much time interacting with people like that. InfernalH (talk) 06:55, 22 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Did not see the comments here earlier- the information given is copious long, un encyclopedic and not aligned in any ways to articles on all other metro's. For example - details of other alignments considered- not relevant to a metro that has been rolled out, and details of what one yard used for repair was used for before it became a metro yard- how is that relevant to the metro ? The article needs to be tighter, and LeoFrank and I have both tried to do that however InfernalH just reverts and does not agree. Engine Gone Loco (talk) 07:55, 30 June 2015 (UTC)

For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions must be deleted.
