status and advice[edit]

take a look at what I did at the Swaffham Prior railway station. Every RR station in the UK has information, and fits into an elaborate Wikipedia template, so go find it when you do an article. It doesn't usually work out well to create articles without references. If you have the information to write the article, you have it from somewhere. So say where. Articles without references are likely to get deleted. To avoid problems, I advise you to do this the moment you create the article. DGG (talk) 16:54, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A content policy reminder[edit]

Swaffham Prior railway station

Right below the edit field it says "Encyclopedic content must be verifiable.". This means, in part, that content that starts "I'm guessing […]" is wholly unacceptable. Don't guess. Provide verifiable information that readers can check against sources. Readers don't trust you, and have no reason to trust, nor gain anything useful from, your guesses.

Encyclopaedia content must be neutral and not original research, also. This means no little editorializations pushing your own personal views of events in railway history. Uncle G (talk) 05:07, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Uncle is right; and that has nothing to do whether he or I or anybody else agrees or disagrees with your editorialization. --Orange Mike | Talk 17:08, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
