Talk:Traffic (conservation programme)

All Caps TRAFFIC
The name should be "Traffic", per Manual of Style (trademarks). -- JHunterJ 22:57, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

It's fine to merge this page with the TRAFFIC International page. NOTE: the name TRAFFIC should be in captial letters as it originally started life as an acronym, but this is no longer used. unsigned comment added by 193.82.96.166 (talk) 14:38, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Logo TRAFFIC.jpg
Image:Logo TRAFFIC.jpg 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 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.

Promotional timeline section
This section has virtually no references and the only ones it does have are to their own website, a COIU editor is edit warring to retain it. the section needs re-writing in prose with suitable third party sources ALL claims/puffery MUST be referenced to WP:reliable sources Theroadislong (talk) 12:06, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
 * This has now been referenced entirely to TRAFFIC's own website, Wikipedia is not interested in what TRAFFIC has to say about itself ONLY what has been reported in reliable WP:Secondary sources. Theroadislong (talk) 15:23, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

Traffic (conservation programme) → TRAFFIC – The article uses "TRAFFIC" throughout and that title is just a redirect to the page. The disambiguation in the current title is therefore unneeded. – Deli nk (talk) 15:49, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
 * This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:01, 23 November 2015 (UTC)


 * But this word TRAFFIC is not an acronym. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:01, 23 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Oppose and clean up the page per WP:MOS In ictu oculi (talk) 22:00, 23 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Oppose "TRAFFIC" should redirect to traffic (disambiguation) -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 05:52, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose per MOS:TM which clearly calls for the exact opposite of this proposal. And yes TRAFFIC should redir to Traffic (disambiguation). This is the same case as "TIME" (Time magazine) again; it is not an acronym, it's just a logo stylization, really obviously in this case – it's unmistakeable mimicry of military stencils which are conventionally all-caps (at least in the public imagination). This was certainly not a legit technical move request, since it directly reverses  applicable guideline on stylization of organization names.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  02:11, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

Advert?
I removed the advert tag and replaced it with a "citations for verification" tag. Recent edits seem to have taken care of the problem with promotional material, but the article still lacks independent, third-party published sources per Verifiability.

The number of important looking red links
I have read through about a third of this articles page so far. It concerns me that there seem to be quite a few rather important looking red links that I believe should have pages. It makes me wonder why they are missing from Wikipedia? -- Ubh [ talk... contribs... ] 11:42, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

A significant chunk of the organization's history is missing
The history section of this article begins in the 1990's, despite TRAFFIC having existed since 1976. That's a decade and a half of missing history. RedKnight7146 (talk) 17:17, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
