[edit] BS Icons

Hello,

would you please have a look at the policies, especially the part about new icons and the category? I would also appreciate if you could change the category of the icons you have already uploaded (to /experimental).

Hi Sameboat,

concerning your edits to existing SVG image source code, as the images are used thousands of times, your co-authors would appreciate if you would use the Edit summary field to let others know what is the rationale behind your editing of the SVG source code. We see that you cut out comments, possibly superfluous XML attributes, but also the SVG title element recommended in the SVG specification[1], the XML header and the DOCTYPE declaration. With the last three, I am certain that they are useful when editing the source code with XML editors or SVG editors, especially when new versions of XML or SVG will come up. Regards, --dealer^ofsalvation 11:40, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Besides, Firefox can't display the icons without these header informations. Regards, --MdE 17:28, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

I have also written an answer on my german talk page. --MdE 18:14, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your answer you were posting at en:User talk:Dealerofsalvation#SVG edit issue. I suggest keeping the discussion thread here in place, so that others will be able to follow the discussion easily.

So am I right that we have consensus on restoring the XML header, DOCTYPE and SVG title?

What to do about the other attributes left out e.g. in Image:BSicon STR.svg? Are there any disadvantages with the original versions? Should we just restore the original versions, or should we create new versions? --dealer^ofsalvation 08:56, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Regarding the browsing issue, I am not against the reversion. Since you have mentioned, I tested with different browsers such as Firefox, IE, myIE and GreenBroswer. Firefox has the same result just as MdE. IE with Adobe SVG Viwer can render the graphic w/o header. Other 2 browsers, well, they do not render either versions or even show the codes. But they do render some other SVG files such as my recent work image:Hong_Kong_Railway_Route_Map_en.svg. Either way the browser preview does not prove to be satisfying. Again, if size (especially for SVG format) doesn't matter, do it. -- Sameboat - 同舟 09:45, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] BS icons

Hello,

your icons (with the little arrows) are still in the normal category, but they should be in the experimental-category. Could you please correct that?

[edit] File:BSicon hSTR.svg

Hi, there seems to be some disagreement about this icon. Can you please discuss the issues first on the image talk page before you make any more reverts? Thank you. --Tryphon (talk) 00:22, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for the missunderstanding last night, I was a bit tired. Today I made 24 new crossing icons involving high level tracks, please have a look at user:axpde/BSicons#crossings! Thank you axp_de^Hello! 15:46, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] BS icons III

Hi Sameboat,

nice deal with File:BSicon obsolete.svg, thanks alot for your support!

Concerning File:BSicon STRl.svg, I'd say this is another proper name for File:BSicon STRlf.svg (you know, I'd like to drop the 'f' and 'g'). How about "BSicon STRql.svg" instead to show this is a track across leading left ...?

CU axp_de^Hello! 23:10, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Again, you did a good job on File:BSicon exINT.svg! Those INT icons are not my cup of tea, so good to see someones caring for those :-) axp_de^Hello! 13:33, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
