Railroad nicknames
Hi. Last year you left a comment on the talk page about removal of unref'd nicknames. Did you finish this? (There isn't an obvious link.) The page would seem an opportunity for placing potentially libellous names to companies, so it would be good if we can apply a firm removal policy on this page (it works on the UK Jargon page!)

 * I haven't had a chance to work on it. There is quite a lot of editing work that I've had to postpone for some time now as real life is intruding a bit more often than I'd like.  At this point, I'd say it's safe to remove anything that is unsourced like we did with the glossary lists some time ago.  Slambo (Speak)  14:57, 8 July 2009 (UTC)


 * OK, I'll stick it on my ToDo list, and in the meantime keep keeping an eye on it. Good luck with getting the Wikipedia-vs-life balance sorted (and once you do, tell me how -- I spend far too much time here!) -- EdJogg (talk) 21:09, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

I'd help if I thought the article should exist --NE2 21:48, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Dakota, Minnesota and Eastern Railroad GA Sweeps: On Hold
I have reviewed Dakota, Minnesota and Eastern Railroad for GA Sweeps to determine if it still qualifies as a Good Article. In reviewing the article I have found several issues, which I have detailed here. Since you are a main contributor of the article (determined based on this tool), I figured you would be interested in contributing to further improve the article. Please comment there to help the article maintain its GA status. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. --Happy editing!
