Share price in the infobox

The infobox gives the last price for TRA. Prices change. Should we give the price at all? — hallin1964 (talk) 11:46, 3 October 2022 (VMT)

Give the year-end close and say so. The Exchange publishes year-end figures; so should we. — JannikVoss (talk) 22:15, 5 October 2022 (VMT)

Done. I have linked the quote page and removed the figure from the lead. — MiloMarrow (talk) 17:44, 7 October 2022 (VMT)

Fine. — FKischuch01 (talk) 12:13, 9 October 2022 (VMT)

Citation to the Herald

The article cites the Herald of 20 December 2010: “Tranner Foundry lists on the Vellmar Exchange as TRA”. Is there a second source? One newspaper report is thin for a claim of this kind. — Brenn_N (talk) 16:03, 16 May 2024 (VMT)

The Herald is the paper of record. That is what “of record” means. — hallin1964 (talk) 11:32, 19 May 2024 (VMT)

I have added the Archive's register entry. It says less than the Herald, which is the usual arrangement. — JannikVoss (talk) 22:01, 22 May 2024 (VMT)

Rewrite of the opening paragraph

Latest comment: 22:47, 9 January 2026 (VMT) by JannikVoss · open

The first sentence calls Tranner Foundry a company. Is there a reason not to say what it does? A reader who arrives here from the register will already know it is a company. — Brosbraurn_T (talk) 21:20, 28 December 2025 (VMT)

The register is the source. A sentence that reads like the source is not a fault. — Brenn_N (talk) 16:49, 1 January 2026 (VMT)

Reverted a change that described the subject as “of national importance”. The source for that was the editor's own opinion. — hallin1964 (talk) 11:18, 5 January 2026 (VMT)

Thanks, hallin1964. That will do. — JannikVoss (talk) 22:47, 9 January 2026 (VMT)
