Talk:Elizabeth line/Archive 1

Article lead logo
To my eyes, heading the article with the "flag box" graphic rather than a roundel seems odd. I understand that the intent here is for consistency with the current standard way of marking Underground stations (e.g. District line), but my view is that we should be using the File:Elizabeth line roundel.svg graphic as a lead logo image. This is not an Underground line, but a TfL heavy rail service - compare the London Overground article, which leads with a roundel graphic. Agree/disagree? Cnbrb (talk) 11:04, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Same style as Overground makes sense to me. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 11:21, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
 * OK with me as it also seemed odd. 10mmsocket (talk) 11:25, 16 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Just added back the roundel to the infobox as per this discussion. Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 11:43, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks - I didn't dare do it myself in case it turned into an edit war! Cnbrb (talk) 13:29, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

The future is now
Statements inherited from the Crossrail article need to be dated if still future or changed to past tense, such as this in #Stations: Ten new stations will be built. Someone closer to the detail needs to check all the "will"s, please? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 11:20, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I've done a pass for tense to reflect the current situation - a second (more major) one will be needed next week once the line is actually open for passenger operations. Mike1901 (talk) 11:33, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

Further proposals section
See my comment at Talk:Crossrail on the "Further proposals" section. Please discuss there, not here. This is just an FYI. 10mmsocket (talk) 16:14, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

Uploading photos to Commons
I expect enthusiasts will be out taking photos next week. If you upload to Commons, please note there is now a corresponding category. Please use this rather than the Crossrail category (unless the pics are specifically about the Crossrail building works). There are various subcategories available, but if in doubt, just categorise as "Elizabeth line" and I will assist with recategorizing as needed. Cnbrb (talk) 18:04, 18 May 2022 (UTC)


 * There's a few on flickr, but not many, under the right licence. If I get some time I'll do some transferring. Here's a great example - https://www.flickr.com/photos/londonmatt/51128983728/    If you search, remember to change "Any licence" to "Commercial use & mods allowed" 10mmsocket (talk) 20:12, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
 * The new Openverse Creative Commons search engine is rather good - try this (remembering to tick "Use commercially" and "Modify or adapt" to get the right licences) Cnbrb (talk) 10:45, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

Typo
Can somebody correct the typo in the legend for the route map, which currently refers to "3 seperate sections"? The word is "separate". GrindtXX (talk) 11:27, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
