Talk:Idle Toad

message: Idle Toad is a registered political party in the United Kingdom with (and this is the important point) an elected representative. I fully understand that non-notable parties should be considered for AfD, but in this case we have a Party which has a member elected to a County Council, so is more than just a protest label.  In contrast, I point out that Official Monster Raving Loony Party has NO elected members at all.

Talk:Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway

message: While I'd love to see this article become a featured article, its currently a long way from being ready, I'm afraid. For a start there is an almost complete lack of sources, which immediately disqualifies this from being a featured article. I'd suggest that we work to improve the article based on feedback in the featured article debate, then take it to Wikipedia:Peer review for further  review before trying for featured article status again. Best, Gwernol 19:48, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. I can personally see many avenues that we could take this page down: Further details on the loco histories, with more photos included, especially of the top shed steam and oddballs; information on the 3' era, photos of Devon and Nab Gill etc.; the constitution of the rather eccentric "company plus society" organisation, and the reliance of a privately owned company on volunteer labour; further reading and references. I am sure that there are plenty more things as well. Pyrope 07:41, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Featured Article 

message: The article, while generally good, lacks any sources, so isn't verifiable by readers. In theory the article could be deleted due to lack of sources.

thread_title:  A note about the lack of sources 

message: Ok, I was dubious about this for quite a while, but recent changes made my mind up. I visited the line quite a bit through the 1980s and '90s and, as I recall, the party line on the meaning of the term "l'aal ratty" is "we don't really know". There were about five or six different explanations floating around at the time, but none that seemed definitive. Until someone finds a good reference for any of them I have removed the references to the phrase's meaning from the main page. Pyrope 02:44, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
