London Overground

WP:NFCC is strict policy. Unless you have a very good reason for doing so, a non-free image should appear in any given article once and only once. If you want the roundel at the top, then the "company" infobox must come first. It also seems more sensible to me that the information and presentation of the "company" box belongs before the TfL box. If you feel that it needs to be the other way around, point me to a specific point (not just a link or a heading name) which states the contrary. If the TfL link box is to come first, then there can be no roundel at the top. 90.203.45.214 (talk) 21:29, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

For the benefit of those with impaired eyesight, I asked for a specific point in the discussion. Removing the image from the TOC box is no good, as it is (IIRC) a required parameter. As I said, WP:NFCC specifically forbids having the image twice, and the best solution from any perspective is TOC box first. 90.203.45.214 (talk) 21:36, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Edit warring on London Overground

Please cease edit warring on the article and discuss the contentious matter on Talk:London Overground. I have put a temporary protection on the article for the moment as constant reversion is not the solution to any problem. Timrollpickering (talk) 21:48, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. 90.203.45.214 (talk) 17:30, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

WP:DICK was drawn up specifically for editors like you and your actions in that article, so talk about staying cool is pretty rich when you were winding everybody up with your ridiculous edits adding nothing to the article. You know it applies because you've gone to the extent of removing it from the talk page, truth hurts I guess. MickMacNee (talk) 18:57, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. 90.203.45.214 (talk) 20:00, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Good luck with that, I've got nothing to hide, it's clear your actions were not constructive. MickMacNee (talk) 20:28, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

The London Eye in popular culture

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article The London Eye in popular culture, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
