Proposed Actions

1) Let the trainspotters source the articles -- tag for cleanup and cite.

  1. Looks notable. --ElaragirlTalk|Count 00:24, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Sourcing needs experts with access to the specialist publications. Not something we can manage, but someone can. Some subgroup of Wikipedia:WikiProject Trains should be able to handle this, so I added their project tag, and the Taiwan project's tag, to the article talk page.

Discussion

  • Trainspotters being, well, trainspotters, there are plenty of web resources on Taiwan's narrow gauge railways, both these sugar railways and the forest one. There are museums and preserved locomotives from these railways in Taiwan. There's a recommended Japanese website on the subject of Taiwanese light railways here, but I don't read Japanese and the music was terrible. A couple of minutes work convinces me that a Japanese or Taiwanese railfan interested in this will have books and magazines with which to reference this to anyone's satisfaction. A European or North American light railway fan can probably add a source or two which overviews the subject. No doubt at all that this is both minimal WP:V verifiable, and perhaps sufficiently well documented to be a subject that could be raised to FA standard. We'd just need to find an expert or two.
