Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 13:35, 23 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Yes. This is very good of you to point out to me. I should indeed have said where I had gotten it from. Thank you for the info and link. Mn06hithere227 (talk) 18:12, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

Fallacious NYT article
The "article" you cite was an opinion piece, and not a factual news article. There is a significant problem with it, since Prop 1A which authorized the system also specified a route. So, there WAS NO option of changing the route without authorizing legislation -- which the "article" never mentioned. The "offer" from the other rail company after Prop 1A was always fraudulent.

Also, the route into the CV from the south was always a MAJOR problem, and likely would have required a many miles-long tunnel if it didn't take the "detour" into high desert, and tunneling under the pass would have rivaled the long, expensive tunnels under the Swiss Alps. Thus, saying that there is a cheaper and easier solution is just not supported by the facts.

Also, citing the Moroccan HSR route/costs is completely irrelevant to CAHSR, and it leaves a false impression. It deserves NO PLACE in this article.

Lastly, if this is to be cited at all, it should go in History, since this is of only historical note. Robert92107 (talk) 02:32, 23 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your comment.
 * It's a great piece. Perhaps someone can summarize it better than myself. I do think it should be cited.

 * It was also written by someone who always was opposed to the project and has always said so in print; there is also some extensive discussion of this author in the article Talk page. As I pointed out above, there are major factual errors and omissions in it, so it is deliberately biased. If cited, it should only go in History, since it has nothing to do with the reality of the project. I would NOT by any means characterize it as "great"! Robert92107 (talk) 17:47, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you for pointing that this author has already been discussed on the talk page. I will not put anything by this author in the article in the future. Mn06hithere227 (talk) 02:08, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
