[edit] Fair use image

I removed the picture in "selected article" section, as it is a violation of Wikipedia's fair use policy. Please remember that fair use images can only be used in the article main spaces (the main page though is considered an exception)--TBCTaLk?!? 22:45, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Things you can do

The Things you can do list mentions Canada Water. I re-organized that article and added more info. Feel free to add more Ysignal 10:45, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

The article Automatic train protection system could use some info on the London Underground type of protection Ysignal 20:27, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rename

This portal's title may be confusing to non-Londoners, so it should be renamed to something more specific. A better title could be Portal:London Underground, for example. 68.111.72.167 04:17, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

The portal WILL NOT be renamed as it is not just for the london underground. Unisouth 09:18, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Link Spam

A user is adding London Bus Routes Fotopic to a lot of articles about London transportation. I think the external website is nice, but shouldn't be added to every single page that shows a bus. I am removing it from all the pages and adding it to Transport in London. What do you think? -- lucasbfr ^talk 07:59, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

I think it should be added to all London bus route articles. The link should be to the gallery of the articles subject. Not many bus articles have very good pictures of the buses that operate on the routes. Unisouth 16:35, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

That's what I did at that time: linksearch -- lucasbfr ^talk 15:37, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
