Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

[edit]

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:

  • http://www.railway-technology.com/news/newsuk-opens-upgraded-swansea-railway-station
    Triggered by \brailway-technology\.com\b on the local blacklist
  • http://www.railway-technology.com/projects/-hitachi-super-express-trains-uk/
    Triggered by \brailway-technology\.com\b on the local blacklist

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

Reading - Basingstoke Branch

[edit]

Although it would appear that First Great Western considers that this line will be electrified as part of the electrification of the Thames Valley branchlines (see https://www.firstgreatwestern.co.uk/About-Us/greater-west/bagw/LTV) and is due to be completed in stage 2 of this scheme, the Draft CP5 Enhancements Delivery Plan referred to under the entry Electric Spine clearly refers (p.45) to the electrification of the Reading - Basingstoke Line as part of that scheme (but suggests that it may not be delivered within CP5: see p.81). Is anyone able to explain this apparent discrepancy? Ntmr (talk) 14:09, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

future tense

[edit]

This article has a lot of saying that such-and-such will happen. Aside from the fact that we cannot predict with certainty whether the work will be successfully completed as planned, it is also a maintenance headache because it means that even if everything does go to plan, the article will need constant revisiting to change future to past tenses at the right time. I think it is better to talk about what was proposed in the past (a completed event that we can report on) than what will happen in the future. I've changed a couple of bits but there is more to do. Thanks. Money money tickle parsnip (talk) 15:10, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Lowering of tracks

[edit]

I've just come across this article and I'm not quite sure of its scope, but shouldn't it be mentioned somewhere that tracks are being lowered under bridges and through tunnels to accomodate the electrical supply. Someone recently added a reference to https://web.archive.org/web/20150921131849/http://www.networkrail.co.uk/great-western-route-modernisation/banes/ to the article on Dundas Aqueduct. Information has also been added to Box Tunnel based on this BBC Report.— Rod talk 17:41, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Progress Details

[edit]

I started a page with a table showing detailed progress, but was instructed to add the information to this one. Although it mostly shows electrification rather than signalling work and only information for the western end so far, I think it would fit best at the end. Feedback appreciated before I add it.
