Hi, I've reverted all cat on Locomotives by manufacturer, I'll handle the sub-cats later this evening and tomorrow.

Should railcars/MU categories use the same format MANUFACTURER TYPE OF ROLLING STOCK as some categories also used to have the "TYPE OF ROLLING STOCK manufactured by MANUFACTURER " format ?

Could I have your opinion on rolling stock categories? I've had the same experience with people renaming categories from COMPANY TYPE OF ROLLING STOCK, for example: SNCV diesel locomotives to Diesel locomotives of SNCV. Is the latter correct or should the former be used instead ? Arflhn (talk) 09:32, 21 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hello @Andy Dingley and sorry to bother you. I am writing simply to inform you that I have mentioned you in this message because I have appealed the decision made in this case, in which you expressed an opinion. Thank you for your attention. Olga Rithme (talk) 15:04, 7 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

Deletion of File:Family doing laundry outdside (14071772716).jpg and others

Hello,

I see you reverted my {{No source since}} tagging of File:Family doing laundry outdside (14071772716).jpg. Please know that I did not tag this and other files simply because the Flickr account has since been deleted, but because that Flickr account itself was problematic, posting historical or old-looking photos with no source information. See this discussion for more details. If you believe a particular file should be kept despite this lack of source information, please use the "Challenge Speedy Deletion" button to convert it to a standard deletion request. In the meantime, I have restored the tag.

Thanks, Phillipedison1891 (talk) 02:02, 15 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
