Proposed deletion of Hoot Toot & Whistle Railway


The article Hoot Toot & Whistle Railway has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * This is very unclear, to the point where it imparts no useful information. Is it about a railway or a locomotive? How can it have been withdrawn before it was built? If the article can be clarified and referenced so that it makes sense and demonstrates a notable subject then fine but as it stands this is unreferenced, unverifiable and unclear.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. DanielRigal (talk) 21:16, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
 * If you prepare articles in User:Cak22/sandbox, this will not happen. &mdash; RHaworth 08:18, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

February 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Norfolk and Western 611, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. The reverted edit can be found here. Thank you. Kwiki (talk) 00:55, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

N&amp;W J class(1941)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of N&amp;W J class(1941), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Norfolk and Western 611. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 00:56, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I have undone your copy-and-paste move and correctly moved your article to your desired title. Any edits you have done at the new location will need to be redone. Let me know if you have any more questions about this. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 18:27, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Thomas & Friends - Criticism
I have reverted your very extensive recent insertion on criticisms of Thomas & Friends. Although well written, none of this is sourced and an independent reader can only assume that it is your original research and/or not from a neutral point of view (i.e. - you might have an axe to grind. Please come back and work on your text by including newspaper/magazine article/book references that corroborate your statements. Thanks for helping to make Wikipedia better!

Chinese Government Railways Class KF
I'm not sure what you are doing, but generally it is a good idea to create articles before making redirects, and altering templates. I will revert your changes until the article exists.Oranjblud (talk) 18:47, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Midland Railway 2501 and 2511 Class locomotives
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Midland Railway 2511 Class a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Midland Railway 2501 and 2511 Class locomotives. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. -- Red rose64 (talk) 13:01, 9 August 2012 (UTC)


 * He tried to merge these. There is no good reason for them to be merged.  The articles now need to be WP:SPLIT! Tony May (talk) 19:47, 25 September 2017 (UTC)


 * I have undone your ill-advised edits. Please don't try to do anything like this again. Tony May (talk) 19:59, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Texas (locomotive), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Grant Park (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Proposed deletion of N&W J class (1879)


The article N&W J class (1879) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * No sources, and no content apart from infobox, for two years. Nothing encyclopedic about a lone infobox of unsourced information.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Pam D  23:28, 12 January 2013 (UTC)


 * OK, it's been de-PRODded quite reasonably. I've now created a lead sentence for it, and while I was there I added it to the dab pages at Class J and N&W Class J, and added a redirect from N&W J class to that dab page! Now please could you dig out your reference books and add a reference to the source from which you got the information for the infobox? Thanks.  Pam  D  09:37, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Survey Invite
I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they affect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take 5 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.

Survey Link: http://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_80J3UDCpLnKyWTH?Q_DL=3dz0m2ubQw1KSnb_80J3UDCpLnKyWTH_MLRP_41qIvziJmCCcKeV&Q_CHL=gl

I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.

Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs (talk) 19:57, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
