Talk:Zürcher Verkehrsverbund

Chosen photograph unrepresentative
The picture of two trams at Tierspital (vetenary hospital) is, in my opinion, a fair representation of the trams themselves, however, the transportation system is rather misrepresented, insofar as Tierspital is the only stop that is underground. The system is an overwhelmingly overground system, running on roads often alongside cars, with traffic lights at road junctions and the like. The photo suggests an underground system, which it is not. Shall I search for more representative pictures? Can someone explain to me what I can and can't use if I find something on the internet? I am not sure as to how I know if something is free to use. Please mail me if you have any advice. Thank you. (I guess that if really necessary, I could take a picture myself. What's the preferred format (JPEG, GIF...)?  Pheasantplucker 10:51, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Zvv.gif
Image:Zvv.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 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.

A network or an organisation
This article describes the Zürcher Verkehrsverbund as a transport or traffic network, but I've always thought that Verkehrsverbund implied an organisation. The organisation may well be managing the network, so it could be both. But just describing it as a network leaves open the possibility that the network is just something that has happened by side effect or happy coincidence, rather than something that is actively managed.

I'm reluctant to change this, because I'm not sure I'm correct. Perhaps the Zürcher Verkehrsverbund is just a description of something that has happened, and there is no 'controlling mind'. Can anybody help?. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 16:37, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
