Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Rail transport in Guernsey, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

Welcome back! I took the liberty of converting Portal:Trains to driverless operation after another editor marked it as historic, but I meant that as a backup plan rather than an improvement. Please feel free to revert my changes to the main portal and/or Portal:Trains/Intro and resume the personal approach if you have the time and inclination.

If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. --TheImaCow (talk) 12:23, 29 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The article List of preserved Southern Pacific Railroad rolling stock has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This article had sources for citations, but only 60% of the article has citations, which means that 40% of the article has no citations. This article also fails GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((proposed deletion/dated)) notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing ((proposed deletion/dated)) will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
