MBTA images[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia! I really appreciate the great images of the Fitchburg Line you've been adding. However, I do have a few requests:

Please give your images more descriptive filenames. (For example, I moved File:1405 Shirley.jpg to File:Outbound train at Shirley station, March 2020.jpg) This makes it easier to find the images from a search.
Add other categories as appropriate. For example, for the Shirley image, I added Category:MBTA in 2020, Category:March 2020 in Massachusetts, Category:Level crossings in Massachusetts, and Category:Bombardier BTC-1A coaches.
When adding the images to the infobox in the article, just use the filename (ie. |image = Outbound train at Shirley station, March 2020.jpg ). This just displays the nice infobox-size version. You've been adding the full-scale images, which take up the whole page.
When adding the caption in the article, please consider context. An outbound train at Shirley station in March 2020 is much more useful to a reader than A passenger prepares to board a train at Shirley.

Feel free to ask me if you have questions! Cheers, Pi.1415926535 (talk) 19:29, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the kind words! I'll be sure to execute your requests when I post again. I look forward to submitting more!BradyRider (talk) 01:47, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
