I think that an edit like this will do what you want. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 13:37, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Redrose64: Yes, indeed. Please implement it now! Thanks a lot. --Field Marshal Aryan (talk) 17:51, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Also, please have a look here, since my request has gone unheard. -Field Marshal Aryan (talk) 17:56, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redrose64, Piggy face? Are you serious? 3125A Talk! Edits! 18:10, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Why are you asking me, when it was Field Marshal Aryan (talk · contribs) that asked for it. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 20:50, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@3125A: Huh? What exactly is your concern with piggy-face? I would strongly advice you to first at least check by googling what you are talking about and only then commenting, especially over matters you don't know about. Piggy-face is a genuine Nick name given to the Indian locomotive class WDP-4 where the front headlight is provided right on the nose, like a pig nose. Hence the name. Also, @Redrose64:, can you please do the edit that I have requested for. The older image is barely visible, the piggy face at least let's people know that it is a locomotive.

Category:Unreferenced rail transport articles[edit]

Most of the articles in Category:Unreferenced bus transport articles already had references, and there was one with more than 100 references, and most of references in the article were added more than eight years ago. The category also contained four redirects. Looking at a few articles in Category:Unreferenced rail transport articles it seems to be the same situation there. If references are added to an article with "unreferenced" templates it's likely the template will be removed, either as part of the edit or soon after, but the parameter in the WikiProject template usually remains. It is one of only 13 WikiProject categories (or 18 if subcategories are included) in Category:Articles lacking sources. As the category is not being maintained, is it still useful?

Subway task force[edit]

I've added back the Subway task force, as it is used by the Chicago CTA system and has over 8300+ tagged talk pages. --Funandtrvl (talk) 01:05, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
