Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited York railway station, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Redcar railway station. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

In regards to your edit to the page on Congleton railway station, I can confirm that the station is still a mainline station as Cross Country have only suspended their limited calls at the station due to Covid 19.

Hey I just want to say I’m sorry for reverting an edit by you but I had to do so to deal with issues caused by an IP address user who had made a poorly sourced edit and had changed the scrapped number next to number scrapped with finding a new reference to back up the edit.

I have re-added the typo you fixed and I thank you for fixing the typo.

Again I’m sorry for reverting your edit but I sadly had no choice in order to fix the issues with the page as I could not see the rollback option in twinkle, If I had I would have just rolled back the IP address’s users edits while keeping you edit.Maurice Oly (talk) 18:40, 20 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Romiley401,

Thank you for your edits to Driving Brake Standard Open.

Hello! I've noticed that you've added links to Edinburgh railway station in a few articles using the {{rws}} template. That creates a link to a disambiguation page; I assume what you want in these cases is Edinburgh Waverley railway station? Best, Mackensen (talk) 11:03, 19 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

For info - the way that template works is the first parameter is the location, in this case Edinburgh, and the (optional) second parameter is the specific station - in this case it would be Waverley. For example, if you wanted London King's Cross to be displayed as London, you would use {{rws|London|King's Cross}}. Danners430 (talk) 12:19, 19 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

I understand that you once did an updating of the facilities of this railway station. In the main booking office and waiting room, new toilet facilities have now been added. As a matter of courtesy to you, I bring this matter to your attention, should you wish to add that information to the Wikipedia article.

Unfortunately, as I cannot give any source but that of my own eye sight and the faxt that I did actually make use of this new facility in a real-life situation, when I was utterly desperate (I only have one kidney since the operation) and the booking office clerk entered the code number in the lock unit, then we shall have to pretend it does not exist....even though it does in real-life.

Thanks for contributing to the article CT4N. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you.

Please don't. Bustimes is fine, a simple link to one page with all info used to support the content. Multiple generic company website home pages are poor citations as the info is not available on the cited page. Romiley401 (talk) 10:25, 6 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I have spoke with a lot of editors and they said not to allow it. Busandtrainfannorthwestgeography (talk) 10:37, 6 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

It's a very good site, updated directly from operators' data daily. Unless a website banned/not recommended by Wikipedia (it will tell you when you try to upload), then it's fine to use. Do focus on adding value when editing, not removing it. Romiley401 (talk) 11:06, 6 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

That doesn't give you the right to target other people's work on a low value point of principle that others don't hold. Citations need to include direct urls to information used in the content...none of yours do.

When the word "river" is part of the name of the watercourse, as with River Camel, River Fal and River Tamar, it takes a capital R because it's a proper name. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 17:38, 8 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Seconded. There seems to be a weird urge by many Wikipedians to purge capital letters, even when they're useful or conventional. Dave.Dunford (talk) 16:47, 14 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Not so...the river's proper name is the 'Tamar', rather than the 'River Tamar'. The M1 motorway is called the 'M1'; you wouldn't call it the 'M1 Motorway'; if you wanted to add the word to describe what it was, you'd write 'M1 motorway'. Romiley401 (talk) 10:03, 19 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

I've mostly reverted your revert to Strines, but I've left the bus provider as Stagecoach Manchester, even though IMHO that is wrong. The BusTimes.org page says "Bee Network - Stagecoach Manchester" (i.e. "Bee Network" first). The buses that serve the route wear the Bee Network livery, not the Stagecoach livery. The tickets that you buy on those buses say "Bee Network" on them. And even if your revert was justified on the grounds that technically Stagecoach Manchester still has some involvement in running this service, there was no need to undo all my other constructive edits that had nothing to do with buses. Dave.Dunford (talk) 16:42, 14 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

If you're not sure, don't just revert it; you can look it up.

Similar to the railway service; Northern Trains is an operator, not National Rail.

Other than adding a wikilink, the other changes weren't corrections and therefore didn't need doing...they looked like just applying your personal preferences; this isn't adding value, which is the core purpose of editing. Changing 'rws' to 'stnlink', for example, is a pet hate of mine, as both formats are acceptable and they both work. I use 'rws' when creating a station link, as it's shorter, but leave 'stnlink' alone when I see it. Romiley401 (talk) 09:57, 19 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your recent edits to Middleton, Greater Manchester when you modified the page, you introduced conversion errors. The {{convert}} template can be complex and I encourage you to read its documentation but it is also helpful to use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and ensure that the values you have added are displaying correctly. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it and when conversion errors are present they will show up in red. It is strongly recommended that you always use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you.

There are a lot of problems trying to shoehorn British station info into this worldwide template. The infoboxes for most UK stations are written with the output in mind. For most, the desired output is the address. WP:think of the reader. Jumping from neighbourhood to unitary authority without giving the settlement is unhelpful at best.

Maybe, but the vast majority of station articles correctly list the borough under the heading of 'borough', so my edit is correct. Feel free to request a change to the template if you feel strongly about it.

Please only edit an article if you have positive improvements or additions to make. Changing info that is factually right on principle all of the time is frustrating for others who spend the time improving an article, only to see it removed/reverted minutes later by someone guarding what they see as "their" pages that "have" to be written their way.

Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Ashton-under-Lyne Interchange. When you were adding content to the page, you added duplicate arguments to a template which can cause issues with how the template is rendered. In the future, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find these errors as they will display in yellow at the top of the page. Thanks.

Hi Romiley401, thank you so much for your extensive edits to various railway station articles (you see I have a similar project here - User:Mattdaviesfsic/Station editing. It is so great to see other editors helping to improve these articles as well. Very quickly, one thing I noticed at North Camp railway station is the image gallery. I tend to remove these as they are generally seen as not being useful - you can see in the image use policy here. A notable exception would be something like Penryn railway station#Signalling, where it is very useful. Hope that helps; and keep up the great work! Cheerio, Mattdaviesfsic.
