[edit] New York City Subway line maps

I see that you created line maps for {{IND Sixth Avenue map}} and {{IND Eighth Avenue map}}. Unfortunately, this duplicated work that had already been done for quite a few of the NYC Subway lines, including those two. The maps created thus far can be seen at Category:Templates for New York City Subway lines.

The maps in the category listed above are more detailed than the ones you did (showing yard leads, for instance). They also use the red color, because the menu of available pictograms is richer for the red color than for the blue. Some of the maps that have been done to date could not be done in blue without having to sacrifice important detail.

One last point: When a line template is embedded in an infobox, it does not display correctly. There is an interaction problem between the route map templates and the infobox template that no one yet has solved.

The upshot is that, in place of the ones you had done, I substituted maps from Category:Templates for New York City Subway lines, and I also moved them out of the infobox. Marc Shepherd 01:25, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

I don't know why, but even after the change you made, there are "gaps" in part of the map when it's embedded in the infobox. Marc Shepherd 02:04, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
It seems to be browser and platform-dependent behavior, although I've seen the problem on both IE and Firefox. I think those line maps just need to stay out of the infobox. Marc Shepherd 02:15, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] HBLR boarding info

As added at Essex Street (HBLR station), the boarding info is great, but no source is provided. Where does this information come from so that appropriate sources and dates could be added to each of the articles. Alansohn 23:46, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Great! If you have the link, I'd love to see the data and see if we could add sources, as appropriate. Thanks for the prompt reply. Alansohn 23:52, 19 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Redirect of Talk:Big Brother 8 (US)/voting history

Information icon.svg
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Talk:Big Brother 8 (US)/voting history, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Talk:Big Brother 8 (US)/voting history is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Talk:Big Brother 8 (US)/voting history, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

[edit] WikiProject New York City Transportation article on Andrew Saul

Just a heads up that Andrew Saul (vice-Chairman of the MTA) has been nominated for featured article status here. Any input, comment and suggestions would be greatly appreciated, there is not that much info on him as it relates to the MTA, and being an !expert, I'm not quite sure how well I can flesh it out. Please feel free to comment and/or improve the article. Thanks! MrPrada 21:24, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Removal of templates

[edit] WikiProject roller coasters

Hi there, just to let you know that WP:ROCO has been given an overhaul. As you are listed as a participant, I just thought I'd let you know that there's a new to-do section and much clearer guidelines for roller coaster articles. Hope to see you over there!

[edit] Desperate Housewives

Your GA Nomination of Desperate Housewives has been put on hold.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:DH 4-01.png

Thanks for uploading Image:DH 4-01.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 03:59, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Infobox US Town

Hi, I just noticed that a template you created, Template:Infobox US Town, is unused and appears to be abandoned. I've marked it as deprecated, meaning it'll be deleted in two weeks' time if nobody objects. If there's a reason to keep it please leave a note at Wikipedia talk:Deprecated and orphaned templates and feel free to remove the {{deprecated}} tag from the template. Thanks. Bryan Derksen 09:56, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] # of passengers at NYC subway stations

Not a bad idea in principle, but I don't think you should add any more of 'em until you can get the infobox working properly. As now configured, it does not indent correctly, and looks very odd. Marc Shepherd 19:16, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

However, all of those pages will have to be updated again anyway. If you must, please put it in comments, so that the display doesn't get fouled up. Marc Shepherd 19:20, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
Agreed...seems to work now. Nicely done. Marc Shepherd 00:28, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comment desired

Your input would be very much appreciated at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject UK Railways#S-rail redux. Thanks, Mackensen (talk) 17:38, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Please stop and discuss!

Please, please, please, stop implementing {{s-rail}} on UK railway station articles, and participate in the discussions on the use of {{s-rail}} at WT:RAIL. Don't just tell us after the event what you've implemented (e.g. the Great Northern Line), in the middle of the night UK-time when no-one is likely to be able to respond. It may not seem a controversial issue to you, but believe me, it is. (I see you've started on c2c now.) --RFBailey (talk) 03:19, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

  • Ditto that. This is a declicate question easily upset by precipitate action. There's definitely no consensus for this step; not yet anyway. Mackensen (talk) 03:41, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:C2c logo cropped.PNG)

Nuvola apps important blue.svg Thanks for uploading Image:C2c logo cropped.PNG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 11:50, 24 November 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Speedy deletion of Image:First logo cropped F.gif

Nuvola apps important.svg
A tag has been placed on Image:First logo cropped F.gif requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free image with no fair use rationale uploaded after May 4, 2006 which has been tagged as not having a rationale for more than 7 days.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[Talk:Image:First logo cropped F.gif|the article's talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ACBestDog and Bone 09:20, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] TfD nomination of Template:Infobox NJT

Template:Infobox NJT has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you.

Do not take offense, but this template I have nominated for deletion was nominated because of the presence of the {{Infobox Station}} template, which is more comprehensive. Articles with the Infobox NJT template have had it replaced.

[edit] LIRR ridership figures

I noticed that you were the one who added ridership info to Template:Infobox NYCS; would you be so kind as to update the documentation to reflect this? It does not seem to list your ridership parameter.

On another note, I'm going to assume that you were the one who also added ridership data for various LIRR stations, am I correct? If so, could you kindly point me towards your source? Larry V (talk | e-mail) 00:01, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm not disputing your source, I would just like to examine some of the LIRR data for myself, and I have not been able to find any other source. Larry V (talk | e-mail) 00:02, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:SmartLink card.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:SmartLink card.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 00:03, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Template:IRT Lexington Avenue Line

Hi, I noticed that you converted the {{IRT Lexington Avenue Line}} template from the red icons to the blue icons. The problem is that not all of the necessary symbols exist in blue. This is the reason why the blue wasn't used in the first place. Although this particular template can be converted to the blue symbols, a number of them cannot be. As a result, the various subway templates would not be stylistically consistent.

For that reason, I reverted your edit to this template, to maintain consistency with the other NYC subway route maps. Marc Shepherd (talk) 08:48, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Big Brother 9 Episode ratings

Hey Geoking66, I just have a quick question. Do we need the episode ratings this time around? Since Big Brother 9 is airing during the official television season wouldn't the table I added be sufficient? Do we really need a second ratings table? The reason I ask is because we have missing gaps in the Big Brother 8 ratings table. I just recently found the viewer number in millions for the finale on The Hollywood Reporter and we are still missing the viewership number for the last Sunday episode. So could we scrap the episode rating table this time around? ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 01:49, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

An archive would be good that way we could still have the summary paragraph before the table like in Big Brother 8. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 02:05, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] JRE/JR East Issue

Hi, am trying, as you are to set up and tidy up the JR station/lines template. In January I set up JRE and did all the stations on the Aterazawa line. I have just also on the 26th set up the Ou Main Line.

Can we agree a common name JRE/JR East?

Cosnahang (talk) 12:03, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Sorry to be a pain but I have everything ready to roll bar this decision, it needs consistancy. Thanks Cosnahang (talk) 12:07, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Apologies, your comment did not pop up at me.

I think you are right it should be JR East. I will try to correct my efforts Cosnahang (talk) 11:29, 29 February 2008 (UTC)


All done that needed to be done, Fukushima and the whole Aterazawa line now JR East :) Phew

Will make a note on the Japan railways portal too Cosnahang (talk) 12:26, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi please see: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Trains_in_Japan#Fukushima_.28Fukushima.29_Station as I do not believe the Template:JR_East_stations is working except in default mode.

[edit] About station articles

Hi, you seem to be devoting to station in Japan articles(?) recently. It's a good thing and I want to appreciate it, but you are erasing pictures and making all line colors black. And templates you are using are, so to speak, not neat. Can you submit more information and improve this template? And if you are so generous, please follow this. --Izumi5 (talk) 02:02, 10 March 2008 (UTC) p.s. This is probably my willfulness, so if you want, ignore this. I'm using {{Infobox japan station}} which was created by me. I made it because {{Infobox Station}} doesn't suit to stations in Japanese because railroad system in Japan is a bit different from one in other countries. For example, one which has a ownership on a station is called operator (company), rather than owner. I cut the futile parameters that should be on the main section of the article. So I'm pleased if you could template of mine and, if you can, improve it. --Izumi5 (talk) 02:15, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Matthew Mitcham 10m Beijing final.png

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Matthew Mitcham 10m Beijing final.png. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy.

[edit] Densities

I removed these as there seemed no consensus to add densities, and secondly, with the level of precision (2sf or 3sf at most) of the area figures supplied by the ABS, combined with the measurement of unpopulated areas (eg Hamersley and Eglinton which had large unpopulated areas), density figures are unreliable.

[edit] Royston railway station

Hi Geoking66. I've just spotted some info you added about services from Royston station that you added a while back. The info that you put only applies to the early morning peak services. The services for the rest of the day are slightly different. I've made some changes to include the off peak info but I thought I should let you know in case the article is important to you.

[edit] Changsha

Please do not do that again. You removed the 'redundant' chart when it simply is another way to present data. it should be there until a separate 'Geography of Changsha' article is created, which I doubt will happen in the near future. 华钢琴49 (TALK) 00:47, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Nick Clegg image

Free though it may be, it's appalling as an image. For one thing, this is 2010, and colour is absent, whereas in real life, er, it isn't. Beyond that, the image suffers from intrusive unfocussed material in the lower right corner. Whereas I'm all for neutrality, this image does not, in my view, fairly represent Clegg. Comments?

[edit] Speedy deletion nomination of Editing Template:S-line/PM right/1

Ambox warning pn.svg

A tag has been placed on Editing Template:S-line/PM right/1, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

[edit] Romanization for words of English origin

On the MOS:JP talk page, a discussion has been started about including or not including romanizations for words of English origin, such as Fainaru Fantajī in Final Fantasy (ファイナルファンタジー Fainaru Fantajī?) (for the sake of simplicity, I called this case "words of English origin", more information on semantics here).

Over the course of a month, it has become apparent that both the parties proposing to include or not include those romanizations cannot be convinced by the arguments or guidelines brought up by the other side. Therefore, a compromise is trying to be found that will satisfy both parties. One suggestion on a compromise has been given already, but it has not found unanimous agreement, so additional compromises are encouraged to be suggested.

One universally accepted point was to bring more users from the affected projects in to help achieve consensus, and you were one of those selected in the process.

What this invitation is:

  • You should give feedback on the first suggested compromise and are highly encouraged to provide other solutions.

What this invitation is not:

  • This is not a vote on including or excluding such romanizations.
  • This is not a vote on compromises either.

It would be highly appreciated if you came over to the MOS:JP talk page and helped find a solution. Thank you in advance. Prime Blue (talk) 11:37, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image File:DH One Wonderful Day.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:DH One Wonderful Day.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions. If you have a question, place a {{helpme}} template, along with your question, beneath this message.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
  • If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
  • To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
  • If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.


Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 07:14, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
