Re: Metrolink
Well, I can't say for certain what would be needed for an A-class rating, as I'm not particularly familiar with the criteria, but I will say that the article certainly looks better, reads better and is better referenced that before. That said, I disagree with putting some of the section order moves you made. As almost all of "Future expansion" is about new lines, it should come after the section on lines, or maybe become a subsection of it. The notable accidents section should be towards the end, as it is less relevant to the railroad than the various physical characteristics such as rolling stock, etc. (though when Metrolink does have an incident they are doozies.) Finally, I'd switch the infobox so the logo is above the locomotive picture. As the article is about the railroad, not the model of locomotive it uses, it's branding should come first. Overall, though, superb work. Where's a railroad barnstar when you need it?oknazevad (talk) 14:40, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

If he is failing to participate in discussions and is unilaterally reverting edits he could be blocked for making disruptive edits. I myself cannot make the block as I am an involved editor, but you can use the Administrator's noticeboard since this is becoming an incident where it needs administrator attention. Please point the admins to the discussion page to show the following:
 * The consensus was reached on the talk page
 * The user continues to revert, despite the fact that he was invited to the discussion and did not participate

Hi, sorry if I messed the csd templates up - I patrol pages manually so must have made a typo (Also why I'm slow putting the warnings on their user page). I also wasnt sure whether its normal to have 2 csd templates on the one page, but though it'd be better to leave them both to give admins more info if someone tries to recreate the page.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:12, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
