Information icon Hello, I'm Maurice Oly. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, British Rail Class 156, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Maurice Oly (talk) 15:29, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Northern Trains, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Maurice Oly (talk) 15:32, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Use of citation templates

[edit]

Hi @Pulsarnix, I noted your helpful edits on British Rail Class 91 - thank you for contributing to up-to-date accurate information on Wikipedia! I did however notice that the citations you used were bare, and didn't use the appropriate templates - there are multiple citation templates available, such as Cite Web, Cite Magazine and many more which improve the way citations are displayed, and make them easier to edit at a later date. Also, there is a wizard available in the editor which provides the fields for many common templates.

Thank you again for your edits! Danners430 (talk) 14:56, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Pulsarnix, this is again a polite reminder to use citation templates. The addition of your ref on British Rail Class 170 would have been improved by the use of the Cite Magazine Template. Danners430 (talk) 08:59, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reminder. I've had 3 years of using the Harvard referencing system at university so it's a hard habit to get out of. I'll try to remember next time. Pulsarnix (talk) 17:45, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Pulsarnix, just another reminder following your edits to British Rail Class 170. Danners430 (talk) 22:07, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

91104

[edit]

In this edit on 13 October you marked 91104 as having been scrapped, with a cite to "Class 91 disposals continue". Railways Illustrated. Issue 237 November 2022 p.13. I've just checked that article now and found that it says

91104 was still complete at the time of writing, although its disposal is expected to take place over the coming weeks...

which is clearly not sufficient to support a claim in our article that the scrapping had already occurred. Please be more careful. XAM2175 (T) 21:31, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Martin Dúbravka, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 22:32, 1 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There's is already a cite for it under "Club Career (Newcastle United". "He made two appearances, both in the 2022–23 EFL Cup, keeping one clean sheet." It is cite number 22. Pulsarnix (talk) 22:36, 1 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, I didn't realise it was league only. Thanks for correcting it. Pulsarnix (talk) 22:37, 1 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia has an exception in its guidelines for "work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications". Given that this is the official Modern Railways Twitter account, and that Modern Railways magazine is a reliable source, I believe this tweet should qualify.

Never mind. Just seen it was about the 156. I cited the transfers on the "British Rail Class 156 Page" as it was difficult to cite on EMR's Page. I didn't mean to undo. Pulsarnix (talk) 04:19, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
