Help me!

Please help me with... Hi there, I made a template located here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Blue_Mountains_Line_Route_Map Based on a template found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:NSW_TrainLink_Western After reading some documentation relating to the routemap template, I found that the template I based mine one used the old BSrow markup. I then tried to convert it to routemap using some of the suggestions suggested on this article under the heading "Transition from legacy BS row template to Routemap markup", but after conversion the map does not display correctly and I see bits of markup in the Preview panel. Could you please help me convert my template to routemap markup?

Your help is greatly appreciated! Jh15s (talk) 07:35, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

{{BSsplit}} doesn't have a /safesubst version, so I just removed it entirely. Not sure how you'll want to indicate there's a separate train line at that station, but there are plenty of options listed at {{routemap}} and its related pages. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 12:26, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Help me!

Please help me with... Hi there, I made the following template using the routemap documentation: Template:T9 Northern Line, however the route map title is being covered up by the "Show" button. Can you help fix the template so that the route map title isn't obstructed by anything? Thanks! Jh15s (talk) 11:08, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi Jh15s, I don't see it being covered up - if you're still seeing that, can you take a screenshot of what you're seeing? Thanks, Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 12:36, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Unnecessary information in infoboxes

Hi, I reverted an edit you did on Central Coast & Newcastle Line because although I believe you had good intentions to improve the article, it's just too much information that's unnecessary. I think the information for classes, bathroom facilities, baggage etc are meant for long distance services and not for relatively short intercity commuting services. I believe that the general consensus is that intercity services should not have that in the infobox, it just doesn't make sense. Thanks, Fork99 (talk) 06:55, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

On further note, I've done this to South Coast Line, Blue Mountains Line, Hunter Line and Southern Highlands Line. I kept everything else that you edited in the infoboxes, except the websites as they are a bit unnecessary as well. Fork99 (talk) 07:51, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

@Jh15s:Hi there. Instead of posting a reply on the initiator's page, you should post a reply here and ping the initiator so that the subject is not split over a number of user pages.Fleet Lists (talk) 11:26, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

@Jh15s: No worries, always happy to help! You're already ahead of me on understanding tables, infoboxes and templates haha. Also have you seen the talk post I made on Blue Mountains Line (see Talk:Blue Mountains Line#Infobox inconsistency)? To ping/reply to someone, refer to Help:Notifications. Fork99 (talk) 11:35, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

@Fleet Lists: Thanks for the tip. I'll use that method from now on. Jh15s (talk) 07:39, 27 May 2020 (UTC) @Fork99:Yes, I've just seen it. Please have a look and reply on the Talk page. Thanks for your tip on replying/pinging. Jh15s (talk) 07:39, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Spacing

To get the effect you want you should use {{clear}} which works on all widths of screens - much better than adding more carriage returns. Cheers Fleet Lists (talk) 10:50, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

M8 Motorway (Sydney) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, M8 Motorway (Sydney), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Boleyn (talk) 15:24, 4 June 2020 (UTC) @Boleyn: Hi Boleyn, thanks for your help and tips. I'll keep these in mind when expanding the article. Thank you!

Rail Interchange Template Icons

Example
INT~~[[Station]] {{rint|rail}} produces Station

To have an icon displayed in an RTD, the code segment (the {{rint|...}} text) should be copied into the text section of a diagram row. See the example to the right.

Template:Rail-interchange/doc/AU is a WP:Documentation sub-sub-page. Because the parent template is WP:Edit protected, you'll have to request changes at the talk page.

Help me!

Please help me with... Hello there, could you please delete/close the following nomination: Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Qantas Suva to Sydney Flight? After going over the featured picture criteria and thinking over it, I don't think the picture really suits one of the points of the criteria, as people have pointed out, and I don't want to waste others' time.

Thanks! Jh15s (talk) 10:03, 2 August 2020 (UTC)

Jh15s, I have added a withdraw request for you. Next time, all you have to do is edit the discussion and place {{withdrawn}} at the front of the comment with the reason for withdrawing the nomination. I hope this helps. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 17:21, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
