ANI notice

Can you provide some context for us at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#Can_someone_blocked_this_user_.28charlesdrakew.29? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 02:07, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

Your revert of closure

Please read WP:NACD, I quote: "Participants, including participating administrators, should not reopen non-admin closures." Please restore my closure at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of night buses in London (2nd nomination). If you disagree with it, there are two ways to proceed. Either you take it to WP:DRV or to WP:AN. Kraxler (talk) 08:27, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

I will not be reverting. This is a case where commonsense should take priority over a guideline. There is no clear consensus to keep. Merging and renaming have also been proposed. This should remain open for others to comment until an admin uses their wisdom to properly close it.Charles (talk) 17:26, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

It's being discussed at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive273#NAC undone by AfD nominator, again. Please read again WP:NACD: "Participants, including participating administrators, should not reopen non-admin closures." We have guidelines, Wikipedia is not your private playground. Kraxler (talk) 21:53, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

The latter comment is just plain offensive.Charles (talk) 08:59, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

Please look at the diagram and then answer to yourself the question at the bottom (re-phrased to cover this issue) "Did the change from "keep" to "no consensus" improve the encyclopedia?" (You needn't tell me, just answer to yourself.) Then see the instruction which should be followed, according to your answer. Farewell, for now. Kraxler (talk) 14:57, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Why not just admit you got it wrong?Charles (talk) 17:44, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

This is the SMRT Buses Deployment, I'm also working inside as employee.

In that case you have a conflict of interest.Charles (talk) 17:45, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Didn't the train guy also try claiming to be an employee? Ian.thomson (talk) 18:09, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

The bus guy in York did. I don't remember a specific train guy. There are too many to remember.Charles (talk) 08:48, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

Oh, right, Transdev. Could only (mis-)remember the first syllable and this Onion article. Ian.thomson (talk) 15:46, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Besides this website, this also have the SMRT Buses Article (model) https://publictransportsg.wordpress.com/bus-models/ When people make an effort to upload bus model in SMRT Buses, please investigate whatever is true or not before making decisions. Don't just deleted it like that.

No indication of that being a reliable published source.Charles (talk) 10:07, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

London Buses route 434

Hi there, I noticed you reverted my edit on this page. I decided to create and expand it because I knew a lot about the route and vehicles and nobody had created a page about it. And the 404 has its own page, that is a similar route to the 434. I spent 4 hours working on this page, and then you go and undo all my hard work! Why?? I have since reverted your edit Class455fan1 (talk) 10:43, 26 July 2015 (UTC)Class455fan1

Because most bus routes are not notable for a stand alone article. Your personal knowledge is beside the point. If you can show how the route meets WP:GNG it might survive a discussion at AfD, which is where it will go if recreated.Charles (talk) 10:48, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

Then why does route 404 have its own stand alone article?? This is just like the 434! Class455fan1 (talk) 10:54, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

Not anymore.Charles (talk) 13:39, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

I'd quite like to know why you have a personal vendetta against buses. 86.152.47.59 (talk) 18:55, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

I have nothing against buses. They are a relatively environmentally friendly form of transport and a good thing.Charles (talk) 08:22, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

And yet you seem to want to deny the public good access to information about them on WP. 86.152.47.59 (talk) 12:56, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Norfolk Broads

Hi Charles, I have made a contribution to the Wiki page on the Norfolk Broads which it appears you have edited by removing it in its entirety. Perhaps you could explain why. Could you also explain your position to me as it appears from other messages that you edit a lot of contributions to Wiki. Thanks Tony Bennett — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tobenn (talk • contribs) 20:17, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

@Tobenn: Well, if you read his message on your talk page it obviously says that you included unreferenced material. --A talkpage stalker 00:47, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
