Question 1) What is going on with the link from List_of_engineering_societies? No one else is attempting an edit at the same time I am, as far as I can tell, which was my first thought. Is changed behaviour of the link to Institution of Railway Signal Engineers the result of a cookie?

Question 2) How do I change the page name to 'Institution of Railway Signal Engineers' if the problem with the red (sometimes redirecting) entry in the list page can't be solved? By solved I mean that the link is not shown in red, and that the link points to the destination page.

Question 3). Can I do a global search and replace on 'reverse' links containing

• 1) I'm not sure what you're asking so I'll leave this for someone else unless you can better explain.
• 2) You can move the page to it's new name, weather you should or not, I have not looked into. There is a move button at the top of the page.
• 3) Not really, but what you do it turn this article into a
  WP:REDIRECT
  to the new article.

• 1. Don't know; not sure how that could have happened, unless you were doing a 'search' or something instead of following a red link - red links will always edit the non-existent page; if it didn't...very mysterious, but I recommend blaming aliens or pretending it never happened.

Hi. This edit has been reverted and your information reincluded. The edit summary should explain why. Thanks. -- Trevj (talk) 10:46, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. File:Sheffield Railways 1855.png is one of a series of maps I produced a few years ago intended to depict the railways of the Sheffield area at three points in history (pre-grouping, post-grouping, and modern). The others are File:Sheffield Railways 1930.png, File:Sheffield Railways 2005.png. Although I put extensive research into the maps at the time, and consulted with other Wikipedia editors as to their accuracy, I am sure that there are mistakes that got overlooked and I am happy to fix any that you find. The 1855 map was not produced for the S&R article, so if it is not needed there then that's OK. —Jeremy (talk) 02:33, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sunici, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Stannington (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
