You better watch what you say about my YouTube channel, calling my content spam I DO NOT tollerate off anyone. The footage was also a reference to the event aswell as a lineside shot by another YouTuber.
Regarding your latest revert, I would just like to point out that help pages are also designed to have a universal standard for IPA transcription in specific languages on Wikipedia. All I did was conforming one of the many edits by Zorroquinzacara (talk· contribs) to how those transcriptions are supposed to look like. If you really want to apply the verifiability principle to all pronunciations on this project, then you should also mark all his additions as unreferenced. イヴァンスクルージ九十八(会話) 10:43, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There seem to be malicious motivations with your editing. It is also apparent that you have a history of edit-warring. Please advise. Architecttype (talk) 17:38, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Architecttype I am not sure what you need advice about most, but civility would seem to come high on the list.SovalValtos (talk) 00:04, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Gwin poeth sbeislyd i chi ...
... gan yr hen Gymro; rwy'n gobeithio eich bod wedi cael gwyliau Nadolig gwych ac rwy'n dymuno 2019 heddychlon i chi! That is Welsh and translates to: Spicy hot wine for you from the old Welshman; I hope you have had a great Christmas holiday and I wish you a peaceful 2019! Thank you for your excellent work on the 'pedia.
Thank you for your kind words and being educated as to what is the preferred mid morning tipple of old Welshmen. It has gone down well and may lead me to a new allegiance. Best wishes.SovalValtos (talk) 11:25, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
User:Gareth Griffith-JonesUser:Tony Holkham There is a keen editor User:IvanScrooge98 one of whose interests is IPA transcriptions but as yet wanders into WP:OR and cannot always find reliable sources for their prefered transcriptions. Can either of you help with suggesting reliable sources for Welsh language such? The particular problem is with place names.SovalValtos (talk) 11:43, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I have just read your conversation. The editor does appear to think highly of himself and does not take criticism lightly. Nevertheless, I shall start monitoring his contributions. Cheers to you and Tony! Sincerely, Gareth Griffith-Jones (contribs) (talk) 11:28, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for helping with the link Tony. IMO the editor has great potential; help with sources could transform some exuberant editing into the meat and drink of WP. Might the National Library Gareth Griffith-Jones be able to help with a source document for IPA transcriptions. They are keen on WP. I have no contacts but maybe you have?SovalValtos (talk) 14:19, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I ran a quick search at NLW, which may be a start, if I fully understand what it is that's needed, that is. However, little is online. Tony Holkham(Talk) 14:36, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The need as I see it is for sources for IPA transcriptions, particularly when alternative IPAs have been proposed. There has been discussion of this in the past which I have seen but cannot find to link; the outcome being WP:V rules. If I wanted to look further for sources (which at present I do not) I would ask a human librarian at NLW rather than a computer one.SovalValtos (talk) 22:06, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
WCR Diesel list
The list of diesel locos shows what locos are owned by West Coast Railways, sourcing references for all is impossible.
User:Moylesy98 if that is indeed the case then as WP:5P2 requires verifiability the material should not be included in a Wikipedia article. It might of course be included in a website with different policies. Please revert your replacement [1]. Please also remember to sign with four tildes.

Railtour site links
The links provided prove that the companys do exist so that deletion of this info is not required as it has been done previously by people.
Double Chimney link
Since you clearly want a link for a page that doesnt exist why not make a start in creating the page. Here's the link and in your own time go. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_chimney — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moylesy98 (talk • contribs) 23:07, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the link, whoever you are. Please sign your edits on talk pages. It is good to see the benefit to Wikipedia of having a competent editor such as User:Andy Dingley on railway articles.SovalValtos (talk) 07:42, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I do not have the advanced skills needed to help at the level of detail required. Thank you for asking anyway and I look forward to admiring the progress of your next project KJP1.SovalValtos (talk) 22:27, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I seriously think you under-sell yourself. Your contributions to this point have been extremely helpful. But quite understand and appreciate the comment. As it stands, I think Tintern Abbey is next on the list for an overhaul. KJP1 (talk) 16:35, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Tintern photos
Thank you for your kind words KJP1. Having just glanced at the Tintern Abbey article I think I may have spotted one aspect which I might improve. Photos such as [2] or [3] are not high resolution but provides important views. I could make a journey to photo but it would be just for one day. Winter is good for lack of foliage obscuring, Summer is more appealing to some. I have adequate skills if not posh equipment for general photography but not for technical architectural views. It may be too soon to know what is needed, but if there is a shopping list for photos, please let me know.SovalValtos (talk) 20:10, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Many apologies for the delay in getting back. That's an incredibly generous offer which I shall certainly take up. It is sadly lacking in photos, as you say there's really only one decent image, although way too many 19th century engravings!, though there are some better ones in Commons. I personally prefer images without loads of foliage, they may be less "pretty" but they tend to show the architectural features to better effect. I'll try and work out what may be really helpful and get back to you. It will make a very nice day trip. Although I grew up in Monmouthshire, I now only get down a couple of times a year. And then I'm usually tracking down the last of the Grade II* listed buildings in Monmouthshire, although we're nearly there on that. All best wishes. KJP1 (talk) 10:52, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
KJP1 I have started looking for view points and the time of day for lighting. The Devil's Pulpit is one possibility Devil's Pulpit, Wye Valley but it would be better early am. Good visibility, tripod and a ladder also needed as the trees will have grown. I am not a droner. Close-up features will need your requests, so another month OK. However, opening times shown from[4] exclude the possibility of on site early am pics which is how they portray it in misty mornings.

Food for thought. Will you include their lands and granges?SovalValtos (talk) 06:14, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
45212 KWVR
45212 is back on the KWVR, reference from UK Steam provided aswell as further link to realtime trains included. Stop moving it to the away section as the engine is back on the line NOT at the ELR.
WCRC Owners section
Some locos on the page were referenced to Jeremy Hosking which also links to LSL Crewe, not all locos are owned by locomotive services ltd as a number of them are owned by Jeremy Hosking. Either remove the owners section since you think unreferenced info shouldnt be there or reinstate it.
destructive editing still going on at Wiki?
your redactive editing is really rather pointless because your argument could be applied to much of the content on any random article. For example, from the page in question
"His diary is one of the pre-eminent /? British diaries of the 20th century and a noteworthy source /? on British political history from 1930 through the 1950s /?, particularly /? in regard to the run-up to World War II and the war itself" is unsupported and therefore "opinion".
Wikipedia operates on the principle of Good Faith ( see the overarching guidelines ), and you should bear in mind that it is all but impossible to prove or evidence a negative as for example "Harold Nicolson's influence on Sissinghurst being often overlooked", unless by quoting entire histories.
Could you edit more constructively, if you are an expert on the subject matter?
