Hello sir, it's been a while, so I hope you are well.I thought of you when going over an article I'm getting near completing - theChemin de fer de Petite Ceinture article you helped me out on so long ago. I'm not very well-versed in English 'trainspeak', so would you mind having a look if you're around/have the time/would like to?

Hello Captain
Thanks foryour note; Yes, I did take umbrage at CROUS's rather high-handed actions last November, and have been unimpressed that he hasn't bothered to explain himself or engage in any dialogue since on what he's up to (which currently seems to be re-vamping the station infoboxes).
But my liking to help depends a little on what constitutes repairing the damage; returning pages with the format "X (Paris RER)" is fair enough, but the format "Gare de X" is out of step with the naming convention you referred to, so pages moved from there to "X Station" are (IMO) merely wrongly capitalized; the remedy would be to move them on to "X station" or X railway station". Is that what you had in mind?Moonraker12 (talk)16:12, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
PS: On reflection, I've opened a discussion at WP:Trains on the subject; it'shere, if you wish to comment on it.Moonraker12 (talk)16:21, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for uploadingFile:Bus Azur - logo.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required byWikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available fromWikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as animage copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance withsection F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at themedia copyright questions page. Thank you. — Ирука1318:57, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
