Talk:Victorian Railways R class

message: You may think you are "improving" the article by removing a lot of information that other editors have spent significant time editing and providing references for. Personally, I think you're vandalising the article.
Can I suggest that rather than simply reverting back your edits yet again, you take the time to explain why you think your edits are warranted and allow others to comment.

thread_title:  To whoever it is who keeps deleting preservation information out of this article... 

message: Given I have only just figured out how to use the talk page, think its safe to say I don't know how or why to cite a reference on this page. My additions have been factual and true through out, it is quite easy to trace these for yourself for the most through websites and books. Some small portions come straight from my memory as I have had some form of experience with a certain engine/s or group. 
So apologies for "vandalising" all these pages, but in my opinion the layout is crap for most and info is either outdated or not 100% true. Or what I did remove was replaced with different wording to suit my additions.
Last time I try and share or add to a wiki page, sod off.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.240.191.125 (talk) 10:59, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Don't know "how or why to cite a reference"? How about because it's supposed to be an encyclopedia? See WP:V. Think the layout is crap? You hardly improved it by ripping out referenced material and leaving the article with error messages. Did you not notice? As for your comment that "it is quite easy to trace these for yourself", why should everyone else have to do your work for you and try and figure out where you got your information from? See WP:CITE. And as for your final "sod off" dummy spit - look up WP:NPA. Zzrbiker (talk) 13:12, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Still learning 

message: Can we please leave this edit as is Zzrbiker? I cannot cite what is not publically available. You may have guessed by now I have involvement with certain groups and as such I have access to information the general punter does not. I have changed the paragraphs around a little to suit the addition, but I assure you said additions are 100% factual at current time.

thread_title: Minor edit for R711

message: Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to  on Victorian Railways R class. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add  after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add  to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
*Attempted to fix sourcing for https://aib-cms.co.uk/sites/raib/cms_resources.cfm?file=/140616_R132014_Winchfield.pdf
