Your 'welcome' at Template talk:Railway lines in South-East England was unusual and not at all typical. Please don't be discouraged. The response was not entirely surprising because it is most unusual for the first posting of a new editor to be in a template discussion article, less still to come in suggesting a major change without any prior track record on Wikipedia. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 11:35, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
