- Yes, but I still think you should change your user name as your current name is contrary to policy, and you could be accused of having a conflict of interest. This policy applies even to voluntary organisations, I believe. Information published on Wikipedia should be verifiable on the basis of reliable published sources, by the way, not based on what you know. I'm not an expert on this - just another editor living locally, and offering what advice I can, based on my experience on this site. Ghmyrtle (talk) 08:59, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

FYI, if you accidentally mis-name an article, you can move (leaving it's edit history in tact) using the menu at the top of the screen.
(By the way, I'd also encourage you to change your user name. You can still choose something railway-related.) --RA (talk) 23:27, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

[edit]Hello. A bureaucrat or clerk has responded to your username change request, but requires clarification before moving forward. Please follow up at your username change request entry as soon as possible. Thank you. WilliamH (talk) 03:43, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Heritage Operations Processing System may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
