Talk:Bullet train

message: I already had a survey on whether to redirect Bullet Train to Shinkansen or High Speed Rail.
Nearly all Wikipedians at Shinkansen article opposed my suggestion.
It's ridiculous. What does Shinkansen have anything to do with bullet train? 
Look at this Korean article.
"Supreme Court Clears Way for Mt.Cheonseong Tunnel
The Supreme Court on Friday declined to issue an injunction against a bullet-train tunnel through Mt. Cheonseong in South Gyeongsang Province. The original application was filed by the activist nun Ji-yul, who ended a 100-day hunger strike last year when the government promised to review the matter. Suspension of the project would have cost more than US$1 billion."
Bullet train right there.
Thanks Appleby, for the move. (Wikimachine 01:50, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Shinkansen or High Speed Rail

message: I noticed the removal of the reference to the Newfie Bullet. I would suggest this be re-added as this train was referred to as "The Bullet" in Newfoundland and elsewhere in Canada but does not fall under the category of "Other high speed trains" (as it wasn't a high speed train).

replies: text: It was me that removed that entry. The problem I saw was that the link was to a train known as "The Newfie Bullet" - not "Bullet train" - which is what this disambiguation page is about. Are people looking for the "Caribou" or "Newfie Bullet" really going to be typing in "Bullet Train"? I have my doubts, and suggest it would be better placed on the Bullet (disambiguation) page. --DAJF (talk) 07:54, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

message: There seem to be some overly enthusiantic Japanophiles who vigorously repel any and all attempts to include non-Japanese trains in this disabiguation page. I don't have time or desire to engage in an edit war. I'll just leave this for thought: although Japan may have had the "original" bullet train (an assumption), high speed trains in many other countries are now commonly refered to as "bullet trains." People frequently type in "bullet train" as a first attempt to find information on those high speed trains. 220.76.15.86 (talk) 18:56, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that's just your opinion and not the truth, however I really don't have the time to figure out what you're arguing about unless you want to provide some specific examples of what your attempts were that were vigorously repelled. You may or may not be justly characterizing (people who refer to the Shinkansen as the bullet trains) as "overly enthusiantic (sic) Japanophiles," however this practice often goes beyond the Wikipedia universe, and not necessarily a phenomenon caused by the collective power of overly enthusiastic biased Wikipedia editors. Take for example this video from BBC News: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/world_news_america/7955345.stm --Bxj (talk) 12:23, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

text: It seems like the whole point of your rant was that you specifically wanted to add Korea Train Express. I believe this was removed because we don't want to clutter the disambiguation page with every train that falls under this pre-existing entry: Other high speed trains of a similar appearance to the original Japanese trains. --Bxj (talk) 12:33, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
