[edit] Virgin Trains West Coast
At the time of the deletion was fixed the page Virgin West Coast, redirected you to Virgin Trains West Coast and was then not a complete copy and actually the same page. Also the Deletion tag on the page says because the company trades under 'Virgin trains' but so did Virgin XC
[edit] "Future" to "Prospective"
I'm a bit dubious about the wisdom to changing the actual name of the Future UK TOCs template. While I realise that the three on the template do not yet have approval, it is entirely possible that they will at some point (indeed, I have heard encouraging noises about Glasgow Trains perhaps starting at the end of 2008); I think it may be better to change the labelling of the template but not the actual title. Just an opinion. Hammersfan 01/05/08, 14.24 BST
[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eardington Halt
Hi. If you want to move a different page to this title you shouldn't bring the issue to Wikipedia:Articles for Deletion. Articles that are being discussed for deletion are articles that aren't edited, and you would like to edit that article. Please let me know what you would like to do and I'll be happy to help you. You can reply on this page. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 08:01, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- I wish to move "Erdington Halt railway station" to "Eardington Halt" (more accurate name) but can't because the page is currently exists as a redirect. I want that page deleted so I can move the EH railway station page to EH. Btline (talk) 17:56, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Firstly, I don't think that's a good idea becasue it looks all the railway stop articles are titled "......railway station." But its an unfamiliar subject to me, so I won't get to involved. In regarding to moving a page (which is what you want to do), usually all you have to do is use the "move" tab at the top of the page (for more info, see Help:Merging and moving pages). But if the page that you want to move is already a redirect, then usually you won't be able to move it unless you're an administrater. I'm not an admistrater, so I can't help you with that. But you can ask any admistrater that you know, and see what they say. Alternativly, you post the request here: Wikipedia:Requested moves, but that takes a while. If I was unclear, or if you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask. Best, --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 18:09, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hi, I saw this on AfD. The agreed naming convention for halts is ----- Halt railway station. I know that it creates rather long titles, but that's the way it is. If you are interested in raiways why not join the Trains WikiProject or UK railways WikiProject? Mjroots (talk) 15:34, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Wikibreak
Oh Goodness! I've put the wrong wikibreak banner up! I'll rectify it! Britishrailclass91 (talk) 18:10, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] First Harrogate Trains
Re your message on my talk page. Let's see what the consensus is, that's the whole point of the Afd process. Just FYI, other stuff exists is not a reason to keep. – ukexpat (talk) 19:52, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
