Link to deleted YouTube video

In the "references" section, reference number 8 directs you to a YouTube video which has since been deleted. I am relatively inexperienced and do not know how to edit that link. However, if someone would like to repair the link so that it directs to a YouTube video showing a concrete sleeper crusher at work, there is one here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvySDCyctcU Ormewood (talk) 19:50, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hangon

Keep - If you merge with Tie, article may be too long and too cluttered. Best kept separate. Tabletop (talk) 04:00, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My point is that there is really nothing in this article to merge into Railroad tie - except the list - which I don't think makes a notable article.FengRail (talk) 15:44, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any justification for this huge plant list?

Although I cleaned the list, I don't really consider it informative and supportive for this article.--Aaron-Tripel (talk) 09:35, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps it should be moved into a list article. Walter Siegmund (talk) 19:13, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 21:34, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
