About the specific question, yes one could say that it is more practical to have all questions gathered in a single thread, this is easier for me and i would prefer to do it this way.
But someone else could say that, for example an expert in paint codes is less likely to hit the thread with the generic title "restoration" and find the question burried for example in post #34 and answer it.
On the other hand, a thread with a specific title saying about the paint code is more easily viewed from the readers. Just my opinion. I guess i could try my luck with your proposal, and if it does not succeed then i could start a new thread asking a specific question.
What you will find is that in C&V there is quite a bit of using the "@+username" in that the knowledge base is deep and the C&Vers seem to remember fairly well who has experience or expertise in what area. For instance when I used cudak888 in a mention, he chimed in. However, I know most of his posting is in C&V and that he doesn't look here in Folding Bikes.

Try it both ways. However, for your Raleigh I'm assuming C&V will provide you with better and more complete feedback.

If you go to the first post in a thread, I believe there is a tab marked "Thread Tools." There you can delete a thread. However, I don't believe you need to delete these that are here in Folding Bike. We never know who might come along and help--- or even read it and find it helpful. So just leave these here. I'll look for you in C&V!
