Confused about the Freight Rover 200 & 300 Series
@Davey2010: Out of curiosity I was trying to look and see if there was any examples of Freight Rover 200 & 300 Series on the web. But all I ended up with is the Freight Rover Sherpa series. Was it at one point were Freight Rovers without the Sherpa name and has a different badge? --Vauxford (talk) 06:10, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Vauxford, Truth be told I've never understood the whole Sherpa thing ..... Some go by 2/3/400 series and others have the Sherpa name on the end, Having taken a look at this it would seem the 2/3/400 all had Sherpa on the end .... just the article doesn't show it ?, As I said I honestly have no idea sorry, Thanks, –Davey2010 14:07, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
- Understandable. Freight Rover/LDV was always confusing when it comes to there production, might be the reason why they went out of business. --Vauxford (talk) 15:06, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
- Very true!, I'd assume the name certainly didn't help them in the end - Would've been more sensible to launch a new "facelifted" van with a new name but there we are, Anyway sorry I couldn't of been more help, Thanks, –Davey2010 15:22, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

- The icons in the 2010 wikitext editor have changed.
- The visual editor and the 2017 wikitext ask you to write an edit summary after you press
Publish. This button now also shows an ellipsis. This is to show that pressingPublishis not the last step.

Early RM close
Why did you close Talk:Womanizer (song)#Requested move 26 April 2018 so early? It still has a bout 5 days left. -- Netoholic @ 19:33, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
- Hi, Indeed however it was in SNOW terrority - I originally was going to oppose myself but I knew this was only going one way so figured closing was the least disruptive (as opposed to myself and everyone else piling on), Thanks, –Davey2010 20:01, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
- It should be reopened and allowed to complete naturally. There is no rush. I added an alternative move that deserves time to be looked at. -- Netoholic @ 22:44, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
- Done only because there was a similar suggestion under your !vote, Had there not been a suggestion this still would've remained close, Thanks. –Davey2010 23:31, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

OMG, is the Winking Edit Summary Monster infesting your edits? Scary! Bishonen | talk 21:11, 28 April 2018 (UTC).
- Hi Bishonen, I think so!
, Just found the cause! - Bizarrely that face was the very first option (in autofill) even tho it's the least used ?, Spooky lol, –Davey2010 21:29, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Why did you revert the notice?
Why? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Danidamiobi (talk • contribs) 03:18, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Danidamiobi, Apologies for earlier I thought everyone know what "indeffed" meant - SwisterTwister is forever blocked from English Misplaced Pages and so any messages left there are removed as they're no longer a member of this community, Many thanks, –Davey2010 02:52, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you very much. So sorry I pissed you off. Danidamiobi (talk) 02:58, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- You're welcome and worries, Again apologies for earlier, Happy editing :), –Davey2010 03:02, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
