If we were already talking on this page but the conversation is gone:
you'll find our conversation in one of the archives unless you were rude. You can revive it by creating a new discussion here and linking it to the archive and you can even move it back with attribution in edit summaries with a civil note (if you're comfortable with wiki markup).
If I have left you a message on your talk page, you can reply there, but remember to add a {{tb|replace this with your username|ts=~~~~~}} template to my talk page because I might not be watchlisting your talkpage if we don't interact regularly. I will do the same for you if you ask me to or if you have not recently commented on my talkpage in the discussion.

The Tocopilla railway was a mountain railway built to serve the sodium nitrate mines in the Toco area of the Antofagasta Region in Chile. With a gauge of 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm), it ran from the port of Tocopilla on the Pacific coast up to a height of 4,902 feet (1,494 metres), with gradients up to 1 in 24. The railway was built by a joint-stock company founded in London and was designed by William Stirling of Lima, with a detailed description of the initial operation of the railway published by his brother Robert in 1900.The line was electrified in the mid-1920s and expanded in 1930 with the addition of lines serving new areas of mining. It continued operating into the 21st century, but was forced to close in 2015 when flash flooding caused numerous washouts on the electrified section of the railroad. With the declining prospects for nitrate, it was not economical for the line to be repaired. This photograph taken in 2013 shows a boxcab on the Tocopilla railway, leading a train down towards the coast.Photograph credit: David Gubler

| You sir are awesome! You are being awarded this barnstar for detecting, countering and then nuking the socks who have been disrupting Misplaced Pages by pushing POVs. Thanks for keeping Misplaced Pages clean! —TripWire 20:17, 24 June 2015 (UTC) |
- Thanks, TripWire! Much appreciated. Best of luck with the recreation of your article without a sock hounding you this time. Please try to rewrite the text to avoid copyright issues; even in your userspace. --lTopGunl (talk) 20:23, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
- We hope that TopGun sir will also expose sock puppets of nationalist POV users of "all" countries. Cheers. --Human3015 Call me maybe!! • 20:27, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
- I have been at it and an example would be that of User:Lagoo Saab from Islamabad, Pakistan. But I'll ofcourse consider your comment as banter, on a lighter note, rather than divisive. --lTopGunl (talk) 20:33, 24 June 2015 (UTC)

Topic-banned
I just noticed this edit of yours. If you seriously thought the version you were reinstating was better than the other, I can only conclude you utterly lack the competence to act responsibly as a Misplaced Pages editor in a POV-sensitive topic area. Consequently, I am topic-banning you from all edits related to Indian-Pakistani conflicts and Pakistani politics for a period of 6 months. I assume you know the procedure about logging and appeals of such DS measures. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:41, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
- Huh?!?! Future Perfect at Sunrise, I made a revert keeping the word "Invaded" out to an obvious SPA in a sock infested topic area who I noticed on a talk page. I did not care about the version that was previously there as well. How come that lone edit is worth a topic ban? This fact is corroborated by my complete silence at this. I didn't care for either version. Even if this was something I had personally added to the article, this was mostly the case on Kashmir dispute (Muslim majority and a Hindu ruler). I don't see how it is OR. It was only preferable to the word invaded. You need to rethink over this or I'll be happy to take this to WP:AE. --lTopGunl (talk) 18:11, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
