I'll grant the prose is spartan, but I fail to see how this qualifies as "nonsense." Mackensen (talk) 02:46, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Its a mess of incorrect grammar and internal links that are undesigninated and not needed. --♣ẼгíćЏ89♣ (Wikipedia Patroller) (talk) 02:48, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

• Erm, you'll have to explain that one. The internal links are to not-yet extant articles on other railroads; red links encourage the creation of other articles. As to the grammar; you've made at least two mistakes in your own short note there. Mackensen (talk) 02:50, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

I dont not make spelling a priority in discussion pages. I am totally against seeing red internal links inside articles. Personally, I hardly see the imporatance of the article itself. --♣ẼгíćЏ89♣ (Wikipedia Patroller) (talk) 02:53, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

An article about an historical topic like the Railroads? Probably inherently notable. Certainly not a reason for speedy deletion, and definitely not CSD G1. I ran the article through my spell check and found one typo. The redlnks could go, but if they will soon be blue, little point to that. Cheers, and happy editing.

Given time, they'll disappear (the red links, that is). Mackensen (talk) 03:06, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Don't know about anyone else, but I love to make redlinks blue. Enjoy. Dlohcierekim 03:08, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
