Gallery[edit]

@Dan arndt: This your edit is obviously much more than just "add link to Commons". Can you please elaborate, what is wrong with the third image; apart from the fact that I created it. --A.Savin (talk) 22:14, 27 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Simply the image adds no value to the article, apart from cluttering it with superfluous images. Dan arndt (talk) 01:29, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is no explanation @Dan arndt: -- I am waiting for an explanation, thanks. --A.Savin (talk) 01:31, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As per WP:GALLERY, there is no value in adding an image (with or without a descriptor) unless it relates or illustrates portion of the text in that article. Wikicommons is the proper receptacle for multiple images of the same subject not Wikipedia. Dan arndt (talk) 01:35, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Dan arndt: From WP:GALLERY: "A gallery section may be appropriate in some Wikipedia articles if a collection of images can illustrate aspects of a subject that cannot be easily or adequately described by text or individual images." -> This applies here, so both the train and the signal point are relevant; not to mention the better appearance of the article compared to what you are trying to push. --A.Savin (talk) 01:42, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And what do you believe that the image demonstrates? It doesn't identify any referenced aspect of the article. Dan arndt (talk) 01:44, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Dan arndt: It demonstrates that at the Demodara station there is a passing loop -- an encyclopedic relevant object. What, in your opinion, does then the "Train approaching" image demonstrate, which you are willing to keep? --A.Savin (talk) 01:48, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
