New material at Claydon RS re Claydon Jn

[edit]

Would a regular editor here care to review the material that I have added to Claydon railway station regarding Claydon Junction, please. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 20:43, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

One point missing

[edit]

Shouldn't the fact that Chiltern Railways on special occaisions serves this station be mentioned? Simply south...... trying to improve for 5 years 21:29, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Where are they? Jackiespeel (talk) 22:57, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Jackiespeel: Did you have any in mind? ELs are not required: they are one of the five standard appendices, all of which are optional (but you'll have a hard time getting an article to FA-class w/o some refs). --Redrose64 (talk) 10:55, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Just reads odd to have just the info box. Perhaps [1] and [2] on the Disused Stations website? (My interest is only tangential.) Jackiespeel (talk) 14:13, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
By "the info box", I take it you mean the box headed "Preceding station Historical railways Following station" - that's not an infobox (there's an infobox top right of the lead section) but a succession box, and so is not one of the appendices but one of the WP:FOOTERS, as are the two navboxes below it. That box beginning "Wikimedia Commons has ..." is a link to sister project, not part of the footers but normally placed at the top of the last section. --Redrose64 (talk) 16:32, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
My recollection is that if sister links are the only links to external websites (treating other Wikimedia sites as external for these purposes) then we can use {{Commons category-inline}} instead, which I'll do now. BencherliteTalk 16:51, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

'Generalist WPists' are likely to call any boxed information including 'predecessor/successor' and 'next stations' infoboxes - and I did provide a link (but am not sufficiently into WP-trains-project to know what is being looked for) Jackiespeel (talk) 17:30, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
