Talk page

Hi. I have removed a lot of stuff from the top of this talk page because talk pages are not meant to be used as sandboxes. They are for messages (like this one and those above) and discussion. You can make yourself a dedicated sandbox for testing. If you are not sure how to do this, or if you want to get the stuff I removed back and are not sure how to do that, then please drop me a message and I will get you started. --DanielRigal (talk) 11:28, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

I have again re-instated the content of this talk page. Please see Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines for information about talk pages. If you want to experiment with pages, please use the Sandbox, or create your own sandbox - details for how to do so are on that page. NRTurner (talk) 10:32, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Removing dead link references

Hi. I am afraid it is me again. I notice that you have been removing references where the linked document has been moved or removed from the TfL website. I know that you are trying to help keep things tidy but please do not do this. It rapidly leads to the articles becoming poorly referenced. In most cases the articles have simply been moved or have been replaced with more up to date versions. The correct approach is to fix the reference and update the article to reflect any changes in the updated documents. If that is not easy to do, you can simply put the {{dead link}} tag on the reference to flag it as dead. Somebody else will try to fix it. --DanielRigal (talk) 11:35, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Edit summaries

Hi again. This is just to remind you to provide short edit summaries when you make edits. If you are prone to forgetting then there is an option in the settings you can set to prompt you each time you don't fill the edit summary in. --DanielRigal (talk) 11:35, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Might I just reiterate this. Whenever I see that someone has edited something on my watchlist and hasn't included an edit summary it gets checked. Others do likewise. Help everyone as well as yourself by ensuring you add a summary of your change. Many thanks. --AlisonW (talk) 17:14, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Hilton Hotel 2007.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Hilton Hotel 2007.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 12:36, 29 March 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Bidgee (talk) 12:36, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

The page has been kept, but it is recommended that you transfer much of the content to a user sandbox such as User:East London Line/Sandbox and work on the information there. The userpage is meant to be about you as an editor and what you are working on.--Aervanath (talk) 06:36, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Germaine_Lindsay_July_7_Suicide_Bomber.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Germaine_Lindsay_July_7_Suicide_Bomber.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rockfang (talk) 03:43, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Case of lines of the London Underground

Could you point to the rules/consensus/whatever about Case for LU lines' lines? I see that while changing a date in Template:West London Line you also gave the LU lines capitals for the display but the links and linked articles have lower case "ell". TfL requires lower case for LU lines though for LO it seems to follow heavy rail upper case usage.

If the past services and the future services under the Thames through Rotherhithe, and the former East London Railway company, get the three separate articles they should have, there will be, in order of seniority, E...L...R... E...L...l... and E...L...L.... Many WP articles have LU lines written with lower case "ell"s.Your &c--SilasW (talk) 20:09, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Edit filter

Hello, you may have recently encountered some problems from the Edit Filter; a regex in one of the filters I wrote was not working properly, and inadvertently tagged several of your edits as vandalism. It may have also removed your autoconfirmed status. I wanted to let you know that the filter has been disabled, and all actions taken by the filter should have been reverted. If you are still experiencing difficulty editing, please let me know as soon as possible. Thanks, and I'm very sorry for the mixup. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 19:21, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

rws

You have been changing Stnlnk templates to rws. Is there any practical difference, apart from the shorter name? I had wondered about making similar templates for just stations and for tube stations. Stnlnk to rws by hand must be an ending task. Hasn't your change on the NLL resulted in quite a lot of overlinkage?--SilasW (talk) 12:30, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

I was wondering why too, esp. since {{rws}} is merely a redirect to {{stnlnk}} - they must be identical in action. --Redrose64 (talk) 18:00, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Whatever the path that rws leads down, rws is quicker to type and more compact than Stnlnk and is more easier remembered as RailWay Station. A few other three letter templates for the more common varieties of station (eg Station, Tube Station, even + (London) would be useful.--SilasW (talk) 15:07, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Access

{{Infobox London station}} now supports access information. Adding "access=yes" will display the {{access icon}} symbol. There is also an "access_note" field which can hold a reference and can be used to explain where access is not to all platforms. See East Ham tube station for an example. MRSC (talk) 18:53, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Use of station name templates

In Southall railway station you changed [[Paddington station|London Paddington]] to {{LUL stations|station=Paddington}}]]. I wonder why, not in confrontion, but for the rationale. Paddington does have LUL trains but I would have thought (whatever passenger numbers might be) that it was considered mainly a main line station. I see the Rws templates have been changed to Stnlnks (previously I was told that that change was made as Rws redirected to Stnlnk; but Rws is neater (especially in line map templates) and a renaming and redirect to make Rws the basic template would have been better. What is needed are some other three or four letter templates for common examples where WP does not like the simple "Toytown railway station".--SilasW (talk) 18:51, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Edit summaries

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to London Overground. Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you.

I note that you have previously been warned about this, but have continued to omit this vital detail. Please note that there is an option under the "Editing" tab of "My Preferences" to "Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" as a reminder. Tim PF (talk) 10:02, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
