Fair use rationale for Image:Logo CGR.gif

Image:Logo CGR.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.

Move the Gallery?

The policy outlined in Wikipedia:Image_use_policy#Image_galleries states that image galleries "can illustrate aspects of a subject that cannot be easily or adequately described by text or individual images. The images in the gallery collectively must have encyclopedic value and add to the reader's understanding of the subject." The use of the gallery in this article does not seem to have any encyclopedic value in illustrating Sri Lanka Railways in general. Should the gallery be moved to Locomotives of Sri Lanka Railways, where it can specifically illustrate the different types of locomotives? ~ Tropicalsundae (talk) 02:49, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Looks like another user has duplicated this gallery to Locomotives of Sri Lanka Railways. I will go ahead and remove it from this article. ~ Tropicalsundae (talk) 01:21, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Image not working

New Class S12 trainsets were imported in 2012

File "Class S12.jpg" is not working on this page. It works in other Wikipedia pages and is available in Commons, as of today 23 December 2012. Yet it does not work in this page. ~ Tropicalsundae (talk) 20:17, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
