You are invited to participate in the Destubathon of the Americas, a contest/editathon which will run from May 1 to May 31. The goal is to destub as many of our 475,000+ stubs for the Americas (from Alaska down to Chile) as possible. A good chance to have fun in expanding many of our old stale stubs and win up to £2000 ($2680) in Amazon vouchers for expanding stub articles. Sign up in the Contestants/participants section on the contest page if interested. Even if not interested in prizes you are still warmly welcome to participate in it as an editathon! Hopefully we can achieve something significant in the month of May together! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:01, 15 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello, I ve added Wengenroth (district of Westerburg) and Heiligenroth to those articles route map but did a technical error by mistake, now the route maps look like those were the final stops but i can't find the error

The problems caused by the "<ref" has been fixed by another editor. I have taken out the links because there are no German station articles for either station and no locality article for Wengenroth.--Grahame (talk) 11:47, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello, just created my first article, I ve lived about 29 years in the VRM area, nice for visiting, but that's enough:) However may you help making this article fitable for the WP please?

In the section "Economy and Infrastrutture" of article Renenrod. Yours Philipp ~2026-26002-24 (talk) 06:24, 22 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

i think it's easier I send you the source text here: ~2026-26002-24 (talk) 06:31, 22 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

They don't allow sending source text here. But it s in the article, of Rennerod section Economy and Infrastrutture now as well ~2026-26002-24 (talk) 06:36, 22 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

@~2026-26002-24 I am travelling without notebook, but I will look at it in 4 weeks when I get back. Grahame (talk) 12:57, 22 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello could you continue helping woth the article Rennerod because the text written in the section economy and infrastructure should become a single article. ~2026-38260-44 (talk) 05:19, 17 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

And a sexond question, but it has nothing to do with the new article.Rennerod station, is nother toic.

The article.Draft:Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Mosel is not getting revewed...

thanks

alright, please also check the section "Economy and infrastructure" of the article Wallmerod, there also is a section about the Wallmerod train station that actually should have become a single article, Wallmerod station, thanks.

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Xi'an East railway station, a link pointing to the disambiguation page China News was added.

The page is very weak, plus it has an IP adding peacock. However, he flies through WP:NSCHOLAR via multiple routes:

1. Member of the NAE, #C3
2. Very high citation numbers with an h-factor of 110, #C1
3. JACerS editor, #C8
4. Being elected as a fellow, #C3

I have not dug up his CV, but I expect that he also has awards that pass #C2 Ldm1954 (talk) 09:33, 11 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

N.B., have you thought about using one of the archiving bots Ldm1954 (talk) 09:39, 11 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thanks

I will look at it ins due course. It has already been moved to main space.--Grahame (talk) 00:20, 13 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

I have now moved the text from the article [[Wallmerod]] into it s own article, [[Draft:Wallmerod station]] please also check once everything is okay like that? ~2026-52242-67 (talk) 05:46, 13 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello, I think sth. with the GPS koordinates is wrong in the articles [[Wallmerod station]] and [[Hachenburg station]] because the ''Location'' in these articles infoboxes showes another place could you fix it when putting the correct coordinates from Huaweii pixel or Google maps inside? ~2026-52242-67 (talk) 05:06, 18 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hi, just to let you know that I'm running The Asia-Oceania Destubathon in November. £2000 (about AU$3,796.66) in prizes. It would be great to see content improved for Australia and the Pacific region as part of this. I had hoped the Wikimedia Australia chapter could put up prizes for most destubs by territory/state to reinforce the prizes, but at present it's a prize for Australia and a few other areas. Sign up if interested, I'm sure there are a lot of stale old Australia articles needing destubbing! If it is a success, perhaps next year we could do something specifically for Australia or regional Pacific. Thanks.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:13, 26 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

hello, may you please check if you can still improve.something in the new article [[Draft:Flammersfeld station]], thanks, reg. Philipp ~2026-57561-01 (talk) 11:21, 29 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello, could you plesse add categories.like "railway station in Rhineland-Palatinate" for the [[Draft:Diez Ost station]]?

Article West Australian Reptile Park was deleted recently, because (from memory) after years it still had no non-self-published sources. It looks like it was put back today, but without its history. Is it also possible to have its history put back? I'm the one that asked for it to be deleted, and have no issue for it to return if the problems that justified its deletion are addressed; but the history is needed to confirm that. Elrondil (talk) 12:32, 31 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

I really don't know how you can tell what the previous page looked like. I find Wikipedia's instructions (Wikipedia:Deletion policy) entirely baffling. All I can suggest is add {{Db-repost}} to the top of the page and see what happens.--Grahame (talk) 12:45, 31 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you Grahamec. The article was deleted via WP:PROD, although that isn't obvious since there is no history, nor is it mentioned anywhere. Elrondil (talk) 03:51, 1 November 2026 (UTC)Reply

{{Db-repost}} isn't eligible for PROD-deleted articles. Elrondil (talk) 03:56, 1 November 2026 (UTC)Reply

Indeed, I have removed it now.Grahame (talk) 03:59, 1 November 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you.

I'm not that familiar with deletion policy, the significance of WP:PROD here wasn't immediately obvious to me, nor could I remember straight away that it was done through WP:PROD. Elrondil (talk) 04:04, 1 November 2026 (UTC)Reply

No worries. You could put it up for deletion, although some may argue that the article is about a notable subject and is capable of being turned into a proper article. --Grahame (talk) 04:09, 1 November 2026 (UTC)Reply

I very rarely do, but yes, in this instance I did.

There are now five citations: one is broken and one is self-published. The rest are all low-quality. A notable place would have more and better quality sources. Elrondil (talk) 04:20, 1 November 2026 (UTC)Reply

I meant formal AfD (although I left out the could, in error).--Grahame (talk) 04:30, 1 November 2026 (UTC)Reply
