Talk:Metropolitan line

message: User:81.111.168.160 has added out-of-station interchange information to the list of stations, which I undid, citing "WP:NOTTRAVEL interchanges are often included in individual stations' articles". Rather than follow WP:BRD the editor has restored the information. I have removed it once more and opened this discussion.Bazza (talk) 14:57, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

text: Not a complaint or supporting either side, but that's a lot of extensive research into the standard formats and wikiguidelines. Have you considered registering an account? I'm not saying anyone here is acting as such, but there is a (unfortunate, unsanctioned, but understandable) trend on Wikipedia for IP edits to be assumed guilty until proven innocent. Having a blue-linked account can avoid this knee-jerk reaction, not that it's required. Shadowssettle Need a word? 23:59, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

text: Firstly, I recommend taking 's helpful advice to get a Wikipedia username. It makes conversations like this much more constructive. For a new editor (I can't tell if you really started in December 2020 because IP addresses can change) you have given a lot of detail on WP processes and procedures. You have asked lots of questions about why I did things, have lectured me on what I have or have not done, and instructed me on what I should or should not do. I suggest, to help with your understanding of how editing works, you have a look at Help:Introduction to Wikipedia. It gives some information about what new editors might expect, including what happens when edits are reverted (as in this case, which seems to be your first), and the WP:BRD process. I also recommend you read the alarmingly-named WP:NPA as a lot of your comments above are about me, rather than improving this article. You asked "why everything had to go?" (which is hasn't: nothing goes, it just becomes . Not everyone can spend as much time as they like on manually changing or correcting other people's contributions, which is why the "Undo" link is available for just about every individual edit, and is the method a lot of people use to follow WP:BRD. You will see that  has agreed above that the detailed information you inserted here is too much, so I am not intending to reinstate the  you made. Regards, Bazza (talk) 12:28, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Over-detailed station list 

message: I have changed the infobox of the line from rapid transit to suburban rail and it has got 3RRed.
This line is undoubtedly a suburban rail from an Amersham / Chesham / Watford point of view, but east of Finchley Road / Baker Street it is no doubt a rapid transit.
The same argument can also be applied into Elizabeth line as well.
What should I put in the infobox then? -Miklcct (talk) 11:34, 20 November 2022 (UTC)

replies: text:  None of the other London Underground lines offer a similar combination of services as the Watford / Chesham / Amersham branches of Metropolitan line, which is a faster service connecting the commuter towns outside London run to a public timetable. --Miklcct (talk) 13:42, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
