A4232 road

Hello again Ian13

I would like to point you again, in the direction of 217.36.107.9 who seems to be engaging in another edit war concerning the article A4232 road. I know this may seem like telling tales but I think these editorial confrontations are getting to be a bit more than coincidences.  stavros1 ♣  16:56, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Blocked for 24 hours for breach of 3RR. Thanks, Ian¹³/t 16:09, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
Hi Ian13,
217.36.107.9 appears to be at it again. I feel like we are in the same situation as before this user was blocked. I have not reverted the users edit as I have better things to do than keep reverting this users vandalism all the time. The user has put no summary to the edit or replied to on Talk:A4232 road. I'll just leave it to you. Seth Whales (talk) 17:17, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
Warned again. Ian¹³/t 18:31, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
Please do not insert redundant and duplicated information into this article. I have asked the same of the other users involved. Thanks, 217.36.107.9 (talk) 08:03, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Compromise

Hi Ian13,

I am prepared to compromise for a second and last time, on this article. I am prepared to change the junction names from say "Culverhouse Cross Interchange" to just "Culverhouse Cross" and "St Fagans slip road" to "St Fagans" etc.throughout the infoboxes. I am doing this on the condition that 217.36.107.9 does not revert the above edit and never edits any part of A4232 road again (sorry I have to put this in, but this user has shown to be disruptive already by having a 24 hour block). I have now changed the article accordingly and hope this puts to bed this utterly futile edit war. Regards Seth Whales (talk) 09:59, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Last time I checked, "If you allow me to circumvent content policies, I'll not do it quite so blatantly in future" does not amount to a compromise. 217.36.107.9 (talk) 14:27, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
It is obviously Misplaced Pages according to 217.36.107.9 or nothing. Seth Whales (talk) 15:45, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Alabama Great Southern Railroad

Is there any way to speed up the process and move Talk:Alabama Great Southern Railroad/Temp, or do I need to wait a week? --NE2 01:40, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

The page was created (almost 3 years ago!) as a copyvio, and has gone largely unchanged, so was valid for immediate deletion under CSD G12. However, I held off, and instead posted a full copyvio notice to encourage its recreation. Given this has happened, I am more than happy to go ahead and move it. I must say, excellent work. You have made a useful article from nothing in a very short time.
While I'm talking to you, your User:NE2/valuations/Alabama Great Southern Railroad page concerns me. It appears to be public domain, which is fine, however sometimes, copyright can be claimed from the transcription. I'm no expert in this field, but if you didn't type it up from the book, or a faithful image of the page, I think it may need to be deleted.
Cheers, Ian¹³/t 18:03, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
It's not a direct copy-paste from the transcription; where possible I used the page images, and otherwise I corrected OCR errors. The text is as it was published by the ICC. --NE2 18:09, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
That's cool. Just wanted to make sure. Good work :) Ian¹³/t 22:48, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Nek

Sceptre's talk page

What was the reason to move the past three days of comments on Sceptre's talk page to that archive page? Now that the talk page is blanked there's no hint at that archive and the edits are not in the history of the talk page either. Was there any particular reason to hide those last 3 days of comments like that? user:Everyme 08:15, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
