Hi, I saw that you uploaded Image:Aralogo.gif. It doesn't have any information as to the source, or if we're allowed to use it (for us to use it, it has to be in the public domain or licenced under the GFDL, with certain limited exceptions for fair use). Please add the source and your rationale for using it. See Copyrights for details. Best, [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 16:15, 2004 Aug 12 (UTC)

EMD E2
Eleven minutes after I created EMD E2, Hoary voted to delete it as non-notable. With his comment about "a ginormous set of such articles", he might be gunning for the whole Trains WikiProject. Please vote as you see fit. Rmeier 08:00, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Re: class 3 template
It sounds reasonable enough. I've been waiting to add railroads onto the template until I can find proof of their Class II or Class III status somewhere (usually this is on a state DOT website). There's been some discussion on this (which I've just re-read and commented on again) at Template talk:North America class 1. slambo 17:36, Apr 29, 2005 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:Lallogoai.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Lallogoai.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia 20:39, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Aralogo.gif
This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Aralogo.gif. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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 Non-free content, 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. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:26, 7 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.
