File:Project Trains no image.png


In 2008, the community decided to generally disfavor placeholder images. This particular image for project trains looks particularly intrusive to the article reading experience. As the reference discussion means it would not be added to current articles, I am requesting permission to have it removed from all articles where this particular image is used as a placeholder.

 * But you don't actually propose to delete anything? I think your requests belongs at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Images as an RFC. The communtiy general decision you cite doesn't look generally decisive to me, but I think you are right that File:Project Trains no image.png is particularly intrusive.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:38, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Close (wrong forum). WP:SK#1.  Make the request at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Images as an RFC.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 13:05, 17 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Move to Commons it doesn't mean it can't be used elsewhere, such as Commons, or SIMPLE, or WikiVersity. 70.24.248.211 (talk) 06:53, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Relist at FFD; wrong venue. Achowat (talk) 17:54, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
 * This seems like the hybrid of deleting an image from its use in articles.  MBisanz  talk 03:07, 14 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment. First of all, this is the wrong venue. Even if the image shouldn't be used, it should only be deleted if it's no longer used anywhere. Since its license is unencumbered, it would then be appropriate to send it to commons being said. Whether placeholders should be used is an editorial question, and I see nothing in the linked discussion that would apply here. That discussion concerned living persons and doesn't appear to have endorsed a broad principle. So keep, close, reject or whatever seems appropriate to the closing administrator. This is a no-op either way. Mackensen (talk) 16:30, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
