thread_title: table of operators

message: "-verkehr" here doesn't mean "traffic" (the dictionary definition), it means "transport". The German federal MoT, for instance, is the "Bundesministerium für Verkehr, Bau und Stadtentwicklung", which the ministry itself, on its website, translates as "Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Affairs" - you don't usually get ministries of "traffic"!Maelli (talk) 13:48, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

text: Yes/no/maybe.  The United Kingdom consists of three countries (England, Wales, Scotland).  The state is that of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which has the ISO 3166-1 country codes "GB" and "GBR".  The contiguous 1,435-millimetre railway network only exists across the main islands (Great Britain and the Isle of Anglesey).  Northern Ireland has a 1,600-millimeter gauge network which forms part of the Irish rail network.  There is no connection between those and the network within Britain (where the Class 66s in question operate)...   —Sladen (talk) 14:13, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: An IP user insists on modifying the reference to the "prime mover" in the infobox. I consider this modification confusing, over-complicated and thus difficult to maintain, needless, and useless. I therefore reverted it but it was re-reverted. I invite all and sundry, but most of all the IP user at the root of this point, to offer comments, possibly justifying this modification. Jan olieslagers (talk) 15:04, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The IP editor hasn't "modified a reference". They've added a wikilink to Diesel multiple unit. But there's already a wikilink to there, further up in the infobox. Wikipedia policy is against repetitions of wikilinks. So I support your reversion. Maproom (talk) 15:55, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the added wikilink is to Electro-Motive Diesel rather than to Diesel Multiple Unit but that changes nothing to your argument of course. Thanks! Jan olieslagers (talk) 16:55, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

text: Thanks for support, Andy. Yes, I saw similar things elsewhere. I would be all in favour of a bulk revert, however I think this will be little use as long as the IP has not been blocked. Besides, I have no beginning of an idea of how to do a bulk revert, I must leave that to the more versed. Jan olieslagers (talk) 17:20, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
