This article should not be speedy deleted as being recently created, having no relevant page history and duplicating an existing English Wikipedia topic, because... (your reason here) --Boeing720 (talk) 01:53, 13 January 2015 (UTC) I started with a mistake "LB(car ferries)" which should be "LB (car ferries)". Since I noticed this at once (links remained red) I copied entire text from "LB(car ferries)" to "LB (car ferries). If You refer to LB(car ferries) I agree, I just didn't knew how to remove it. Difference is a space only, but disturbing, and I had prepared links which didn't work in other articles. However if You mean that LB (car ferries) article is too similar to HH Ferry route, You ought to rethink. The HH Ferry route describes ALL known operators on the route since 1630, while LB (car ferries) simply refers to one of the shipping lines that has operated the HH Ferry route through 400 years of history. LB was the first challanger to DFDS/DSB after the monopoly was abolished in 1882. They sailed the route between 1955 and 1981, when Scandinavian Ferry Lines took over, and later Scandlines aswll as HH-Ferries. A shipping line doesn't equal a route. I know that the attributes disappears when doing like this. However only I has written it, at the time I copied the text.Reply

The LB(car ferries) should be removed, but the LB (car ferries) should not. Lokk at the times. And in the history files. Only I have been involved at the time when I changed name. OK ? Boeing720 (talk) 01:53, 13 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

(your reason here) --Boeing720 (talk) 02:10, 13 January 2015 (UTC) OH. THIS is all written by me last night. However I noticed that article name was wrong, one space to little, and prepared links got red. This article should stay, atleast if this has anything to do with the re-nameing. I simply wanted to correct title before other contributers made any entries. And there were non at the time ogf the name change. I'm sorry for not fumling around minutes to hours in order to change the name of the article - but no harm is done. There were no credentials/other user's contribution in the history file. Clearly this is no cause to delete BOTH !? And LB (car ferries) is about a single operator (but an importaint one , since they broke the monopoly at the HH Ferry route. To appriciate the difference between an 1955-1981 shipping line and HH Ferry route operator , and the route itself. Which has formally existed since 1630, and presumaly has been used long time before Adam of Bremen wrote about it some 900 years ago. Do You want to erare Sundbusserne, HH-Ferries, Scandlines , DSB and DFDS aswell ? They have all also operated on the HH Ferry route ! Boeing720 (talk) 02:10, 13 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
