What is needed (other than to know how to spell "fare":): more detail of its non-replaceability in this context vs technical information about the image?

I added more info, but I was mainly rambling. I repeat my request for specific guidance about what expansion is needed.

The FU rationale template appears to address all the standard FU rationale requrements.

Given that this is the only FU image, we will consider this an addressed concern. I am not sure that this image is necessary, but for now it is O.K. as it is.--

Overhauled them all, except for the safety and no-eating ones, as I suspect they violate FU and have invalid copyright tag too: I assume Metro posters are copyrighted by WMATA, so photos specifically of them can't be released under CC by a that photographer without clearance by WMATA. Further, these images are only decoration/incidental to article (not specifically discussed) so their inclusion is not within fair-use/non-free policy either. I'll ask around for confirmation (and welcome your thoughts too, Tony!), but will just remove them in a few days unless someone thinks they are 1) important to be here and 2) can clarify their copyright status.

Right. I'm saying I think their inclusion needs to be governed by that (rather than their given CC copyright tag, which I've since adjusted) and that their use here does not fall within fair-use guidelines. I've removed them from the article.

Did some (comments welcome if I'm on the right track (sorry:) ). Network getting flaky, so will continue tomorrow.

The
WP:ALT text looks fine except for the infobox. I have put in a request at
WT:ALT to have that infobox jazzed up to accommodate
WP:ALT text. Once this is done we can pass this article.--

Merged into first paragraph. Not much more I can think to say for that intro, so may as well jump right into the first item.

I will monitor the progress of this review and review the article's quality rating after one week.--

There has been some progress on these concerns, but it is difficult to tell if it is a response or coincidental. I would appreciate some comment here about intent to resolve the remaining above. I will continue to monitor and reconsider the article in another week.--

For the record, I was drawn to this page and made edits specifically via the GAR flagging.

Thanks for the reply. This GAR has been like pulling teeth. I have never had such an unresponsive group of active editors. Could you make your intent known with respect to the concerns above. If you do not intend to address them and want me to consider delisting the article let me know. If you are going to continue improving the article let me know.--

Yikes:( Okay, I fixed the remaining deadlinks. I'll keep working on the other issues over next few days.
