WAGR locos

Hey it would be really good to try get a standard/template for various classes for the old WAGR locos (i do have better images than my xa B&W Jpeg somewhere) it would be good to have some consistency with other oz states articles for similar arts -what do you think? SatuSuro 12:48, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

also

I would be reluctant to place every class as they existed to a see also to a history of wa rail transport - it would be better to have either a list of the histroic classes that could be the main link - rather than the main history article - otherwise it will end up a real mess SatuSuro 12:53, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Trying to start a list first - fumbling with it a bit - my x class photos will be delayed - i am interstate from ym home at the moment SatuSuro 13:04, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The new south wales article has a template for current running rolling stock - not sure what the other states have to allow for discontinued scrapped locos and rollign stock SatuSuro 13:06, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Info box

check out australian standard garratt - a good standard i think we need to aspire to - imho - i think we need off web info for reasonable sources as well - also I am not ahppy wit current categories - any ideas from your end ?SatuSuro 03:24, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oldham, Ashton and Guide Bridge Railway

A question regarding the Oldham, Ashton and Guide Bridge Railway. I work for Oldham Council Highways and we are decommissioning a former railway underbridge by underfilling. We are looking to retain and restore one of the steel parapets. My question is would anyone know of the original railway company's colour scheme for painting of bridges and structures? Many thanks.Waltonhighschoolphoto82 (talk) 07:04, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 02:13, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Siemens Brothers

Many thanks for your kind message. Perhaps you should cast a more critical eye over what I've done. Its not yet finished and also I have arranged for a copy of a book to be sent to me which may tell more. It is Siemens Brothers, 1858-1958: An Essay in the History of Industry by John Dick Scott. I've still got a few conflicts within the info I've gathered and maybe that book will clear them up. I'm sincere about you doing an edit.

Lady Rachel MacRobert

Hi, thanks for adding categories etc to the Lady Rachel article. I'm sorry if I've come across as a tad "stroppy" when removing the link to the MacRobert baronets article - WP is really, really hacking me off at the moment but I love creating content and felt Lady MacRobert well and truly exceeded notability requirements. If I can regain a smidgeon of motivation I'll try to add some more detail to the article over the next few days- again, I apologise for being such a bitch!!!

Disappearance of Sheila Fox

Hi, can you take a gander at Disappearance of Sheila Fox? The article was largely writter by an Australian (me) and an American (Gourami Watcher) but is about a British victim so a pair of British eyes could be helpful. Many thanks. Paul Benjamin Austin (talk) 09:00, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
