Interlinked to Djurö National Park. Do we need separate Djurö, Vänern? Xx236 (talk) 12:07, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Xx236: Possibly not, but we certainly don't want it as a paragraph in the article Djurö, Värmdö Municipality, which is were it currently is in en. I suggest you let me finish disambiguating it out of there, then progress a merge into the Djurö National Park. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 12:13, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Xx236: OK, finished disambiguation. All the remaining article-space links shown to Djurö are just links via templates that havn't yet caught up. Please feel free to merge Djurö, Vänern with Djurö National Park, if that is what you think is the best way of representing those subjects. I was coming at this from the Djurö, Värmdö Municipality perspective, I don't have any knowledge of the Vänern situation beyond the text that I moved, so I have no feel for that. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 12:38, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Xx236: I've taken a look at the Vänern articles, and you are clearly correct. Now merged Djurö, Vänern into Djurö National Park. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 13:07, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you![edit]

The Writer's Barnstar
For your ground work on St Pancras railway station that meant it was much easier to achieve good article status than many other articles I have worked on. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 22:01, 17 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Track gauges[edit]

@Chris j wood: For the sake of style consistency with all tram and railroad articles leave 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+38 in) metre gauge and 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+12 in) standard gauge etc. alone. Peter Horn User talk 01:17, 21 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

... in this specific instance, if you'd said your change was to fix a caption that was grammatically incorrect, I'd have done something else! Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 09:48, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
