Thank you

Thank you for adding extra categories to Railway stations in Zambia, etc. but you should have mentioned this in the Edit summary. Tabletop (talk) 04:14, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks

Hi Borg, thanks for your edits to the {{Boroughs of Hamburg}}, I have not installed all links, because at time I created this template there were much more redlinks. Have you compared them to the list at Boroughs and quarters of Hamburg? For your move request, I will support it, after Los Angeles is no longer Los Angeles, California (what a comparison!). And may I bold advertise the brand-new Hamburg portal? Cheers Sebastian scha. (talk) 15:26, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

I like a complete alphabetical list better. But as long as all quarters are mentioned in one template its okay for me. Another question: How shall I name an article about the Speicherstadt in Hamburg (de:Speicherstadt), simply Speicherstadt (there is a Speicherstadt in Münster too) or translated Warehouse district, Hamburg (as there is a so-called warehouse district in Cleveland)? Literally translated it would be Warehouse City, but IMHO this is no option. Hoping for input Sebastian scha. (talk) 16:06, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. I will name it simply Speicherstadt. Another small point: {{stub}} templates should be placed after the categories. Sebastian scha. (talk) 16:49, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

first stub template should be preceded by two blank lines

I've reverted a couple of your edits that deleted the blank lines prescribed by WP:FOOTERS. Let me know if you have questions or concerns about this. --Stepheng3 (talk) 01:08, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Vatican City railway station

I have merged this into Rail transport in Vatican City. A single station and 300m of track can be adequately covered in a single article. To proliferate additional articles merely promotes content repetition, duplication of efforts, and makes it more difficult for the reader. I encourage you to add to this article if you think I have missed anything in the merge. Savidan 23:47, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

German town categories deletion for discussion

Hi DerBorg. I would just like to say that I'm impressed with your mature approach to the above proposals you made about German town categories and your willingness to reconsider your vote either as more articles are added or you get more info on some of the topics. This is Wiki cooperation at its best. Gruß. --Bermicourt (talk) 20:49, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Nice catch

Hi, I was about to undo all of those New Caledonia-related moves and you beat me to it! In case you're interested, this report is helpful to monitor for mass movers. Thanks, --JaGa^talk 22:21, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
