 * Rail start

Same as Not immediately obvious why this is called 'Rail start' but is only for the National Rail, either. — Lfdder (talk) 10:00, 26 September 2013 (UTC) {|
 * Keep It's part of a series having a consistent style, see Template:Rail start. The style of this series is subtly different from that of, and mixing the two does not produce satisfactory results, particularly in the cell borders. -- Red rose64 (talk) 10:47, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * s-start/s-rail seems to satisfy everyone outside of the UK. Does "does not produce satisfactory results" mean "I don't like how it looks"? — Lfdder (talk) 10:49, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * For anyone wondering, here are the two, side by side. Let's play spot the difference.
 * Also, here it is with for Disused Railways; you get 'Preceding' and 'Following station' in the header again (which isn't really reason for forking s-rail, I think):

 * And, for anyone wondering, the only differences are that you get a slightly darker border below the header (could be changed in s-rail) and the font is slightly smaller (like with every other of these boxes). — Lfdder (talk) 11:10, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * OK... I read your and took it as, which is often used outside the UK. It's occasionally used inside the UK too, and that certainly shows a difference, such as at Wakefield Kirkgate railway station where the last three rows (from Pontefract Monkhill down) exhibit double-thickness borders. You won't see the effect on all browsers, because browsers differ in how the property is interpreted.
 * This is what generates:

 * But why take an efficient template, which does the job it's designed for, and replace it with something that is less efficient? Not to mention that contains at least two coding errors, plus some redundancy. -- Red rose64 (talk) 11:44, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Coding errors and redundancy in s-rail can be fixed. Bottom line is, we don't need two of these templates. s-rail is more encompassing, which is why I'm suggesting we delete this one. — Lfdder (talk) 12:18, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

You would have to write How's a newbie going to get that? Edgepedia (talk) 12:09, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Would additional complexity into article writing. This proposal would mean, when creating a route box, instead of starting
 * This is what they've got to do if they want to make one of these boxes for any other rail network, anyway. How are they gonna get it? I don't know, from reading the instructions? This is isn't any more difficult than infoboxes, say. — Lfdder (talk) 12:18, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * We could create better redirects to help, e.g. rail start could point to s-start and rail network or rail header to s-rail, compare:


 * — Lfdder (talk) 12:21, 26 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep - it is different, and frankly the s-rail has always looked ugly. For no good reason the next/preceding shows up bigger than the title, which would presumably be the most important bit? This DR is just a waste of time which could be better spent improving the articles which use rail start. -mattbuck (Talk) 12:26, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * No one's forcing you to participate if you think it's a waste of time. Like I've said above, issues with s-rail can be ironed out. — Lfdder (talk) 12:53, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * On second look, I don't think there's any salvaging the s-rail-start/s-rail/s-line class of templates. Fuck it. I'll add the succesion-box class to this one though so that they'll look uniform. — Lfdder (talk) 14:04, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. No obvious reason to delete. And wouldn't this create unnecessary work in replacing the existing templates? G-13114 (talk) 17:06, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
 * That could've easily been taken care of by a bot. — Lfdder (talk) 17:08, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment from creator: I made this way back for use in articles about grammatical aspects, together with Template:Aspect line and the images in commons:Category:Grammatical aspect icons. It would be nice if someone more knowledgeable (e.g. from WP:LING) would make use of this template, but if it is deleted, Template:Aspect line and the images should probably be deleted as well. --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 17:05, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
