Now I see what they mean when they say don't edit anything on Wikipedia unless you want to be harassed. The images are mine if you want the negatives I can show them to you. the newspaper article is shown to be from the Orlando Sentinel so credit was given to them. its a NEWS PAPER article that falls under FREE MEDIA.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Monorail fire 1985.png}[edit]

Thank you for uploading Image:Monorail fire 1985.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. Additionally, if you continue uploading bad images, you may be blocked from uploading. STBotI (talk) 10:20, 14 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Recent monorail edits disputed[edit]

Thank you for your recent edits to the pages Walt Disney World Monorail System and Mark VI monorail. In my opinion, you are altering factually correct information to be factually incorrect. Please stop this practice, or cite verifiable references to demonstrate conclusively that your edits are valid. Notable incorrect statements introduced into these pages include:

  • You reversed the terms "base" and "concourse" in the description of the platforms at TTC. Please provide a citation showing that your use of the terms reflects current practice among monorail cast members.
  • You changed "dynamic braking" to "regenerative braking". This is incorrect and makes the Mark VI page internally inconsistent. The trains at WDW use dynamic braking, which burns generated electricity in resistor banks as stated in the article. A regenerative braking system would not have resistor banks but would instead return the generated electricity back into either onboard batteries or into the system-wide power distribution system. If Mark VI monorails have been modified to include regenerative braking, then please provide citations and update the remaining prose of the article to be consistent. If the Las Vegas MVI monorails have differing capabilities than the Mark VI trains at WDW, then please make that distinction in the article.

I will revert these edits if you are unable to provide appropriate citation. Again, thank you for working on these pages, but please take a moment to verify your facts. Roothog (talk) 05:06, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
