Please use edit summaries more often

When you make a series of edits with no edit summaries, like these, it's much more difficult for other editors to understand what it is you changed. If you had simply taken the 5 seconds to type out "changed photo" and "added link", I and other editors with the article on our watchlists can quickly see what you did and spend much less time checking edits. You're an experienced editor I see editing fairly often so I generally trust your edits, but please make more of an effort to use edit summaries.

Understood. I often publish too fast before I think so I apologize for this in advance. Davidng913 (talk) 14:33, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I hate to bother you, but I need some input from someone. I recently remade CNW 1385’s page from scratch, but right now I’m debating over whether or not I should get rid of this photo.

[1] This has been put in categories for the Strasburg Rail Road, but that doesn’t hold up, as sources I’ve recently found state that the wheels were sent directly to the more remote SPEC Machine. It gives me the feeling these aren’t even 1385’s wheels, but I wanted to hear someone else’s thoughts before I do anything about it. Someone who likes train writing (talk) 23:51, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

May need to look at more photos of the 1385 itself and see if the drivers look identical. Chances are, if they're not of the 1385, whoever uploaded the image had no idea which wheels those belong to and probably slapped a random locomotive onto the file. That's my opinion. Do feel free to ask other people about it. Thanks for reaching out! Davidng913 (talk) 23:57, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, not a problem. I just want to be sure. Someone who likes train writing (talk) 00:05, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Okay false alarm. It turns out I just found a source that outright said No. 1385's driving wheels were sent to Strasburg. So there's that. Someone who likes train writing (talk) 06:59, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of File:Morrison–Knudsen logo.jpg

The file File:Morrison–Knudsen logo.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unused file. Higher quality version available at File:Morrison-Knudsen Logo, August 1991.svg. Nor realistic encyclopedic reason to retain this one as well.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
