Thanks for uploading Image:Coaster2.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use if you release it under the GFDL, or  if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much, -JYolkowski 02:12, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for adding the infoboxes to railroad articles. You should probably use Infobox SGRailroad for standard gauge railroads, as it makes it easier to keep the same format everywhere. --SPUI (talk) 21:42, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Coaster2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Coaster2.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Note that any unsourced and untagged images may 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. —Bkell (talk) 22:26, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

I have a question
How, may I ask, do I add myself as a participant of WikiProject Trains? I would like to know. --Kschwerdt514 10:10, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

I have another question
Thanks for the tip! I really appreciate it! Now I have another question. How do I list pages as part of WikiProject Trains? --Kschwerdt514 02:51, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Removing stub tags from rail articles
I notice you have been removing from articles. I think that if you are to continue, you should do it on a more limited basis, and should certainly leave it in place on articles assessed as "stub". Otherwise, people from outside the project are unlikely to find the articles and work on them. Also, removing the other types of rail stub markers looses some category information.

Image:Cfares.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Cfares.gif. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. --– Quadell (talk) (random) 20:40, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Calrev.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Calrev.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 18:46, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Better source request for File:Indiana Harbor Belt RR logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:Indiana Harbor Belt RR logo.png. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:12, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
