editThis station is situated right in the heart of the Olympic Village site.
Will it be permanently closed before or during the Olympics? Ian Goodyear — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ian goodyear (talk • contribs) 21:29, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
Plans not confirmed though it's expected to be at least temporarily closed during the Olympics. Paulbrock 10:18, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
Last train at old station
editThe time of the last train at the old station is given here as 00:47 but that is uncited. It is given elsewhere (in an unreliable source) as 00:46, but with a link to http://origin.tfl.gov.uk/corporate/media/newscentre/29956.aspx which may have verified it - however the origin.tfl.gov.uk server no longer exists and I can't find the relevant document on the present website and archive.org has nothing post 2007.

West Ham ?
editIs this the closest station for watching a West Ham Utd at home ? Any buses that drive closer ? Boeing720 (talk) 00:50, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Boeing720: This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the page Pudding Mill Lane DLR station, not for general conversation about the article's subject. Per WP:TALK#topic, please make your enquiry at the Reference Desk. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:57, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Since this isn't mentioned in the text, are questions like this one actually permitted. I could just as well have written "Article doesn't mention whether this station is the optimal one for visiting the London Olympic stadium 2012, I suggest this is added if true". This matter has been dealt with many times before. Always with the same result. Or has any new specific WP:guidline been added lately, which you may refer to ?

- You claim "this matter has been dealt with many times before. Always with the same result" - where? I see no previous discussion in the history of this page. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 20:09, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- No not at this page, but on several other pages. Not all types of questions, but such questions which deal with the lack of relevant information in the article. As I tried to exemplify above. If I had written "How much for a West Ham ticket at Trevor Brooking stand ?" - it would clearly be outside the article's scope. I can though, in retrospect, see that I should have used a better formulation for my question. The part "watching West Ham at home" should better have been "closest to the stadium" or something. By the way, IF you want to study some interesting talk-pages (over next to nothing, one might think), then can I especially recommend this one Talk:Danish pastry and open the part that is hidden, just below the headline Exotic names? (just press "show"). Boeing720 (talk) 23:41, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
