Hello @Bernhard Rieger:

Can you please help by adding logos to articles of former Indian railway companies. Here is the category for the images - commons:Category:Indian Railway Heritage Logo, as given on 2021-08-27.

Hello @Cookersweet:

of the 35 logos, there are still no articles for seven companies. I added all the others. In the articles and also in the corresponding Wikidata entries.

Unfortunately, an article you recently created Indian Railway Classification, is not ready as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage with citations from

There is almost no information on this subject. The sources are reputable and verifiable. In the German Wikipedia, the article meets the relevance criteria and notability guideline. Too bad, but then it will stay like this for now. Bernhard Rieger (talk) 14:21, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Some of the railway heritage logos have been left. If you could please upload the document and extract images from it to Wikimedia Commons from https://indianrailways.gov.in/railwayboard/prdirectorate/uploads/pdf/IR%20logos.pdf. It is official Indian railways website. Pols aa gayi pols (talk) 20:32, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Document already uploaded by another user. Just have to extract the images. 106.196.82.84 (talk) 21:17, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I can only find two logos that are not yet in the Commons. The images in the publication used so far - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Indian_Railway_Heritage_Logo,_as_given_on_2021-08-27 - are mostly better, so it only makes sense to extract the two that are not yet there.

Done. Bernhard Rieger (talk) 19:03, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by User4edits was:

The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at Indian Railways. Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

I do not find it standalone notable.

Hello @User4edits, the classification of Indian Railways has nothing to do with the "Indian Railways company". It was the classification of all Indian Railways (private and state) in the pre-independence colonial period. Therefore, this does not belong in the Indian Railways article.

I have now integrated this into the article Rail transport in India Bernhard Rieger (talk) 17:59, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
