Unreferenced sections, orange "updated needed" banners, sections that need updating of recent elections and events, and at over 9000 words it is recommended that the article be split off and information be summarised. Z1720 (talk) 18:02, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
Towards a GA status for this article
editOkay, so we have some work to do - my first proposal would be to lose the table with all the railway destinations and calling points from the transport section. Surely this is too detailed and is covered by the York railway station article. It can be summarised in this article with a section of short prose....?
| “ | Trains from York Railway station run to London, Doncaster, Peterborough, Darlington, Newcastle and Edinburgh with LNER, and across Northern England between Scarborough, Leeds, Manchester and Liverpool with TransPennine Express. Northern provide local services to Hull, Leeds and Harrogate, and Cross Country, which connects Edinburgh, Newcastle and York, with Leeds, Sheffield, Birmingham, and the south-west of England. Additionally, open-access operator Grand Central run trains between Sunderland and London. | ” |

Digital Sectors
editHi, I noticed the recent removal of an edit citing the 2023 York Top 100 Businesses report published by York St John University, which named TSYS and Gear4music as examples of modern digital-sector employers in York, with a neutral tone and independent source. The removal note cited potential conflict of interest due to shared IP activity, but this addition was made in good faith using a highly reputable source that’s directly relevant to the city's economic profile. Would welcome any advice on how to reinstate it in a compliant way, or clarification on whether the source or framing is in question. Thanks. 188.65.101.236 (talk) 16:11, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
- I didn't remove it but it did read like it was added by someone connected to the business(es) involved. If that's the case then I suggest you step away and leave it to someone else who may deem it appropriate to add that or similar content. 10mmsocket (talk) 16:26, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
