Uncle G, Heh! That is very much nott he station, is it? The white circle with the black stripe? That is a speed limit sign for the road - national speed limit applies (in this case 60mph). ~~There's a level crossing ([1]), and you can see the actual station location on Street View (on the B4569, not, as you might expect, Station Road).~~ We don't have signallers' huts, there were things called fogman's huts back in the day though.

- Road trains limited to 60 miles per hour (97 km/h), eh? But can reach that right off the platform. Impressive.

  In the signalman's hut is placed a battery, one pole of which is to earth, the other to the electro-magnet.

  - That's a signal box. They started off as shelters for people running ground frames and developed into standardised and in some cases ornate edifices.

    - Well signalman's huts do appear to be scattered throughout history. I suspect that the Legends of Tomorrow have had a hand in this. This seems like a brilliant opportunity for a cross-over, Dim ond Dyn. We can correct history to match Wikipedia.
      I know that you can get the Heart of Gold to travel through time, but the only time when you've done that you've been hung-over and in an artificial universe. So perhaps we should cross-over to User talk:Drmies and ask to borrow the TARDIS so that we can undo the Legends' dastardly work.
      We've certainly got our work cut out for us. There are signalman's huts in the Railway Engineer and all over the place. The first major stop appears to be Reading in 1921, though. Some bloke named Henry Ralph got a whole bunch of articles published in a column in the Reading Standard from 1921 to 1922, which later got collected in book form.
      When writing my last paper I was uncertain if the ancient signalman's hut and signal could be reproduced.
      — Ralph, Henry (1922). "Signals, Ancient and Modern". Railway Days and Railway Ways, Being the Reminiscences of a Great Western Railway Man. Reading Standard., page 22
      If we can get this excised, then perhaps the butterfly effect will stop Colin Maggs from ever writing about signalman's huts.
      One of the outcomes of the inquiry was that all points outside Salisbury were to be worked from the level crossing signal hut. Accordingly, a small ground frame was provided outside the signalman's hut.
      — Maggs, Colin (2013). A History of the Great Western Railway. Amberley Publishing Limited. ISBN 9781445613000.
      Drmies has the library card, not I. So perhaps you should bring along your cycling proficiency certificate and we can convince either M. Ralph or the editor of the Standard that we are from the War Office and that knowledge of signalman's huts is an official secret. If loose lips don't sink ships in this case, they might interfere with the 17:38 to Bognor.
      Plan B is of course to discredit M. Ralph after the fact. Drmies did it to Prime Minister Harriet Jones with one question. I think ours should be: Well, yes. But Henry Ralph is a retired Great Western Railway official. What on Earth would he know about trains?
      Bloody Legends, eh? Vandalizing history so that it doesn't match actual Wikipedia.

      - Uncle G, the Reading Standard? I live in Reading and have never heard of this. I wonder if the archives are now part of the Reading Post or Reading Chronicle? Anyway: I am reasonably sure that mentions of "signalman's hut" are in fact references primarily to signal boxes. It's clear from the few professional references that the term refers to a building containing a lever frame. Perhaps they are describing smaller boxes without block instruments, but it's unclear to me where you would find such a thing. It's possible that they are actually talking about fogman's huts, though. The Western, in particular, had huge numbers of these, typically located near distant signals. They genuinely were huts, about the size of an outhouse, containing the fogman and his lamp, a supply of detonators, and if he was lucky a brazier. If visibility was below 200 yards the fogman would place detonators on the line in advance of the signal, to warn trains if it was set to caution. So I'm not disputing that the term exists, but I am saying that, as used, it probably doesn't apply to a hut (in the sense of shed) but instead to a more substantial structure. Maggs is referring to a level crossing operator's hut, which may indeed be much less substantial as it often did not have a lever frame - a crossing between signal boxes would be manned, but the crossing operator would contact the signaller Up or Down from the crossing to set the signal at danger, from my reading of the manuals. But this was a station with a crossing, and that would normally need a frame to operate starter, home and distant, and potentially a crossover as well.
        So it seems to me most likely that this is informal language. The only images I can find that are explicitly listed as a signalman's hut appear to be for permanent way men (which would include fogmen), with no evidence of any signal operating equipment.
        Of course it is All Very Different Now. King's Cross is signalled from York ROC! That's no hut. I think KX power box closed last month. There is also a big problem with user-worked crossings, which have no staff. They are just about the most dangerous thing on Britain's railways.

I am confused about one detail. It appears that you replied within the past 24 hours to a post to Talk:Franklin child prostitution ring allegations that had been made by Autonova three years ago.

Robert McClenon, oh, having seen the gobbledegook DRN case I went and read through the Talk page to see if there are any outstanding unanswered points. I didn't look at the dates, tbh. The DRN thing quoted Autonova's comments, right? And actually it only drew my eye because my wife's late cousin was an expert on the Franklin expedition.

Different Franklins, undoubtedly. The alleged child abuse was in the United States, where things named Franklin are usually named for Benjamin Franklin, not for Sir John Franklin. Also different sorts of mysteries, because the Franklin expedition was real, and there is no reason to think that the Franklin child abuse was real. But we have paranoids here who invent child abuse, who are typically also COVIDiots, and who have a savior with a time machine. (Oh. Wait a minute.

An RfC at Talk:Race and intelligence revisits the question, considered last year at WP:FTN, of whether or not the theory that a genetic link exists between race and intelligence is a fringe theory. This RfC supercedes the recent RfC on this topic at WP:RSN that was closed as improperly formulated.

I am Poorpony and what does it matter how many edits I have? The author of this page should be held accountable for implying the Franklin child prostitution ring allegations was a hoax! This article is related to government officials trying to hide the fact that government officials are having child sex, This article is of a very sensitive subject and should not have been written so lightly and immature. The author should take the time and add all relevant facts to the case. For example, the boy was compensated in a civil suit however the author failed to mention this in their sources. There are many articles the author could have shared about this case but chose not to for what reason? Is the author part of a people trying to hide sources which would portray the United states as faulted as other countries and people? I have been an avid reader and money contributor to Wikipedia over many years and because of this authors most awful puke display of an article I made an account and my first edit.

Starship.paint, it's really a lot simpler than that. As someone memorably put it on teh socials recently, what blows my mind is not that we keep having to have a conversation about whether it's OK for cops to kill Black people who are just going about their daily lives, it's that some people seem to think that there are two sides to this issue.

On the insurrection talk page, we see a small group of people who have clearly succumbed to the right-wing narrative that Babbitt is the George Floyd of ~~white nationalists~~patriots. This is not a question on which reasonable people can differ.

The narrative of Babbitt as an innocent unarmed woman murdered by police (or even killed by policy using excessive force, which is the faux-reasonable argument being advanced most of the time) is asinine. It was a mob storming the Capitol calling for the blood of popular right wing hate figures, specifically including Pelosi, AOC, Tlaib and others. The fact that they erected a gallows and chanted "hang Mike Pence" tells you everything you need to know. Mike. Fucking . Pence. The Platonic form of white Christian nationalist. A man who was too much of a bigot for Indiana.

And I really do not think we should be humouring these people. Wikipedia is a reality-based encyclopaedia., If someone sincerely believes that the Jan 6 insurrection was a peaceful attempt to redress a massive election fraud, and that the only true victim was Ashli Babbitt, then Conservapedia is the place, not here.

I don't think we are at the stage where election fraud believers would qualify under WP:NONAZIS, a page targeted at racists. I think we can humour this people as long as they stick to our policies. I suspect that your views on this are more extreme than many other editors, and I fear that this will be ammunition for an eventual examination of your conduct in relation to AP2. starship .paint (exalt) 13:37, 2 May 2021 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-05-02T13:37:00.000Z","author":"Starship.paint","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Starship.paint-2021-05-02T13:37:00.000Z-JzG-2021-05-02T08:47:00.000Z","replies":["c-JzG-2021-05-02T17:20:00.000Z-Starship.paint-2021-05-02T13:37:00.000Z"],"displayName":"starship"}}-->

Starship.paint, the leaders of the movement that led to the insurrection, and most of the lead actors themselves, are fascists. This was America's beer hall putsch. They wanted it to be the Reichstag fire.

But let's focus on the things on which, to my point above, no reasonable person could disagree. Like the fact that the election was not rigged, Trump did not win, the insurrection was a violent attempt to subvert an election, and there's no way Babbitt was a victim in any sense other than that she was a victim of disinformation and insane conspiracy theories.

I also haven't succumbed to any narrative where Ashli Babbitt's death or character remotely resembles George Floyd's, or where Pelosi, AOC, Tlaib and Pence are portrayed as popular far-right hate figures.

That reminds me, I also know she was unarmed, but that doesn't signify anything to me beyond the fact that she, the one who was killed, did not at the time, herself, have a gun on her person.

Well, since I've got the Anti-Nazi badge to prove my credentials, from a time when Guy were but a lad, may I respectfully opine that that the victim in the confrontation that brought Babbitt fame was the cop. She was likely to have been the victim of delusions, but as a responsible adult she chose to lead the mob of rioters in their assault by climbing through the window/glazed door. The cop had no choice, his duty was to stop the mob from overrunning the improvised barrier in the way they'd done with the barricades outside, and to protect the escape of congresspeople. He was issued with a gun, and trained to use it, but still a very distressing thing to have to do. By the way, the Beeb describes the shooting as at "point-blank range", looked rather further to me, but I'm no expert. . . dave souza, talk 19:21, 2 May 2021 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-05-02T19:21:00.000Z","author":"Dave souza","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Dave_souza-2021-05-02T19:21:00.000Z-InedibleHulk-2021-05-02T18:49:00.000Z","replies":["c-InedibleHulk-2021-05-02T19:39:00.000Z-Dave_souza-2021-05-02T19:21:00.000Z","c-JzG-2021-05-02T23:12:00.000Z-Dave_souza-2021-05-02T19:21:00.000Z"]}}-->

Alright, given the refusal to identify any Nazis and the three denials we all can see, I take it this was just standard Internet hyperbole intended to "win" a conversation, and nothing to do with any actual problem Wikipedia faces from hardcore Hitler fans. I suppose that's a good thing, relatively. Whatever the case, remain vigilant for obvious signs of facism, terrorism and jingoism, but when in doubt, maybe err on the side of asking all of our future suspected enemies directly in plain English what their problems are, rather than immediately resorting to wild vague namecalling.
