[edit] Requested move
- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the debate was NO CONSENSUS to move page to suggested title. It's not clear that the current titles are ambiguous or in need of changing. -GTBacchus(talk) 02:00, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
Midland Mainline → Midland Mainline (train operating company) — Distinguish from actual Midland Main Line. I hope this is not too ambiguous Simply south 19:34, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion
- Add any additional comments:
- Based on the articles, there is no conflict. The company is Midland Mainline and the line itself is Midland Main Line. At least this is the way they are named and described in the intros of the articles. Vegaswikian 03:54, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
- In a way, i was following the convention of Thameslink and [[Thameslink (train operating company). Simply south 09:24, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
- That's not a convention. For a dab, you should use the shortest phrase that makes sense. In that case, I think it should have been Thameslink (company). However the convention says to use the full name instead of a dab. So it probably should have been something like Thameslink PLC. In any case this article should not follow a bad precedent.

- What is Midland Main Line Limited? Is that the correct name of the company or the line. If it is the company name, then moving the article to Midland Main Line Limited might be a good move. Vegaswikian 22:32, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] xx25 to Sheffield
Having recently travelled on this service, it seems to now be operated by a Class 222 rather than the Class 43 stated. Cordless Larry 22:34, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Some of the services are operated by a Class 222 and some by Class 43. Its a mix. Year1989 11:36, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Midland Mainline logo.gif
Image:Midland Mainline logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:31, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
