Could i request an icon showing a coverd bridge, both horizontally and vertically? Could it also be shown to connect to a tunnel? This is slightly related to Commons:Commons:Deletion requests/File:BSicon tKRZo.svg and a small discussion on the CTRL RDT. Simply south ( talk) 17:09, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
Any idea why File:BSicon HWASSER.svg is shown as a vertical squiggly line, the same as File:BSicon WASSER.svg? It is also under threat of speedy deletion at Commons, having been detected as a duplicate.
One of these should be horizontal, to match with the corresponding river bridges. Currently the effect is wrong (see Slough to Windsor & Eton Line).

New year's greetings (as in JST, UTC+9). Anyone's help is grateful, to make the curves smoother or much finer. Recently I noticed that in a few cases icons between BSeven and BSodd are to be combined together in a same hub, so I created HUBs to fit 20px|BS2lg, 20px|BS2clo and similar icons. The shape variations have been completed, I suppose. Let me forget HUB26cbu and others for compound icons 20px|BS2cbu. They can be easily imagined, but practically no use. I think IDs would be understandable, however, any better ideas will be welcomed. Maxima m ( talk) 15:17, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Axpde has proposed that we change "ueCONT#" by "uexCONT#" and "utexCONT#" by "uextCONT#" to match the standard naming scheme. Are there any yays? nays? If there are no problems I'll correct them with Chrisbot as soon as possible. Chris DHDR 08:23, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

, I seem to recall that the template was not to be used on en:WP so is not an issue to "make the template work". Only the standard BS template should be used (which, by the by, makes it much easier to track what icons are actually being used as you don't have to check back along the line to find if a not-the-standard template has added an additional code into the mix). --

Hi, could someone create some icons for me? I've inferred the names from Template:Waterways_legend, they're all a manipulation of existing icons. The first name on each line below is the icon required.
1) ugWEIRl - unwatered canal (green) version of uWEIRl
2) ugWEIRr - unwatered canal (green) version of uWEIRr
3) uLKRZun - proposed (dotted blue) version of uKRZun
4) I also need 2 icons for "Drop Lock under Motorway". I don't know what the name should be. I would need normal waterway (dark blue) and proposed (dotted blue) versions. The base icon to construct it would be uADROPLOCK, changing the road over to look like the motorway in uAKRZu2.

Unfortunately, not all icons are listed in tables. For example, such images as

Just an FYI to say I'm about to do a 'search and destroy' .. er ... "search and update" mission to check what is missing / changed / deleted on my consolidation pages. As I've noted before I only add what has already been created elsewhere, not invent codes for the fun of it (well, nearly always anyway!). I will not be adding all the multicoloured variations that have cropped up, but just sticking to the rail 'blue' and rail 'red' sets. Waterways, Roads, Paths, Pipelines, etc. will continue to used in their own way and may correspond to *rail* icons, but may not be explicitly listed as their alternatives. I hope to have it completed by the end of today. -- AlisonW ( talk) 11:12, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
Some thought. It's definitely too late to say so, but I don't know anything about German language/grammar, the whole LRFG suffix combination for single turning STR
aren't quite user-friendly. I mean normally when you recall these icons, you first think about which direction you go straight, i.e. f/g , and then the turning direction l/r comes second. IMO -fl (forward then turn left), -fr, -gl & -gr are far more logical than the current -lf, -rf, -lg & -rg and easier for most editors to write as they recall/organize the icon code from their brain.
The branching sets (BS2 and UEW) is even mysterious, use the "+" to represent g but +l represents rg & +r represents lg. -- Sameboat - 同舟 ( talk) 07:10, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

There are several problems derived from the fact that to many people were doing their stuff. The original concept was made by
de:User:Bernina, he introduced the the "driving" direction from top to bottom and to see left and right in driving direction.
After the transfer to commons, the project lost it's consistency. Especially en-WP introduced tons of new icons, very often disregarding the original naming convention, e.g. prefix-"H" which should have been a suffix, suffix-"ELEV" that should have been a prefix, ...
But worst of all, en-WP decided to rename icons at their will, e.g. changing prefix order "et" and "ext" to "te" and "tex", ignoring the fact, that other projects still make use of the {{ BSe}}-template – especially the project that invented the whole BSicon-system!
In the light of those problems commons:Commons:Icons for railway descriptions should be the right place to discuss BSicon related questions! There (on commons) we discussed several adjustments during the last months, including the question how to name the CONT icons, maybe we should install a central project talk page there ... axpde Hello! 11:01, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
1. I just was intrigued after reading the page on the Welsh Highland Railway why that diagram is red but the mainline is blue = light rail. It's clear that the creators of this diagram were forced to "reverse" the color key to make the distinction between the Welsh Highland Narrow Gauge railway and the Cambrian Line which by definition is a standard gauge heavy rail line.
Could I therefore suggest you create a third color, for instance green for rail networks that are neither heavy or light rail lines e.g. dock railways or mine railways for instance? They may use a smaller gauge, but are no light rail or heavy rail. Just a suggestion but it might help because I was confused by the WHR diagram.
2. BTW I think it's confusing to use a light color to indicate that the track is not used, is out of use or there is no longer any rail at all. The color should either represent the track in situ or the track bed. i don't think it should represent both or for that matter an inactive line. It just makes it very confusing when identifying what is new or not. 109.155.66.42 ( talk) 22:48, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Hello! I have created a set of eight icons for switches to rail sidings:
File:BSicon eSIDrg.svg
File:BSicon eSIDlg.svg
File:BSicon eSIDlf.svg
File:BSicon eSIDrf.svg. I felt, rail sidings should be a bit narrower than a regular railway. I am not sure if the icons satisfy all demands and if they are correctly named. Was their creation a good idea? Is there any chance these could be included in
Wikipedia:Route diagram template/Catalog of pictograms/junctions?

Hi folks, 'though my time is rare, I'm still working on BSicons categories on commons.

The CONT icons are being renamed, please see User:Chrisbot for more details. In the mean time all users are asked to use the icon names that are shown at User:Chrisbot/Work status even if it seems illogical. They will change from time to time so please check every time before you use a CONT icon. It is in the good cooperation of all that this will work out. Chris DHDR 16:05, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Axpde has proposed that we change "ueCONT#" by "uexCONT#" and "utexCONT#" by "uextCONT#" to match the standard naming scheme. Are there any yays? nays? If there are no problems I'll correct them with Chrisbot as soon as possible. Chris DHDR 08:23, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

-template work. The same naming also has "ex" for a track completely off use, which was obeyed with "exCONT#", so "ueCONT#" should be renamed to "uexCONT#". Ciao

, I seem to recall that the template was not to be used on en:WP so is not an issue to "make the template work". Only the standard BS template should be used (which, by the by, makes it much easier to track what icons are actually being used as you don't have to check back along the line to find if a not-the-standard template has added an additional code into the mix). --

Hi, could someone create some icons for me? I've inferred the names from Template:Waterways_legend, they're all a manipulation of existing icons. The first name on each line below is the icon required.
1) ugWEIRl - unwatered canal (green) version of uWEIRl
2) ugWEIRr - unwatered canal (green) version of uWEIRr
3) uLKRZun - proposed (dotted blue) version of uKRZun
4) I also need 2 icons for "Drop Lock under Motorway". I don't know what the name should be. I would need normal waterway (dark blue) and proposed (dotted blue) versions. The base icon to construct it would be uADROPLOCK, changing the road over to look like the motorway in uAKRZu2.

Unfortunately, not all icons are listed in tables. For example, such images as
or
are absent in tables. I wish to create a template for search icons in Commons: to collect images in a category to signs of presence of certain elements. For example, I have made
Category:STRlf elements in which has collected all elements with
(
). These are crossings, bridges, tunnels, platforms, stations - everything that contains it. Unfortunately, tables are imperfect, especially in widespread elements and crossings. Besides elements becomes more and more and where them to search, happens not clearly.--

Just an FYI to say I'm about to do a 'search and destroy' .. er ... "search and update" mission to check what is missing / changed / deleted on my consolidation pages. As I've noted before I only add what has already been created elsewhere, not invent codes for the fun of it (well, nearly always anyway!). I will not be adding all the multicoloured variations that have cropped up, but just sticking to the rail 'blue' and rail 'red' sets. Waterways, Roads, Paths, Pipelines, etc. will continue to used in their own way and may correspond to *rail* icons, but may not be explicitly listed as their alternatives. I hope to have it completed by the end of today. -- AlisonW ( talk) 11:12, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
Some thought. It's definitely too late to say so, but I don't know anything about German language/grammar, the whole LRFG suffix combination for single turning STR
aren't quite user-friendly. I mean normally when you recall these icons, you first think about which direction you go straight, i.e. f/g , and then the turning direction l/r comes second. IMO -fl (forward then turn left), -fr, -gl & -gr are far more logical than the current -lf, -rf, -lg & -rg and easier for most editors to write as they recall/organize the icon code from their brain.
The branching sets (BS2 and UEW) is even mysterious, use the "+" to represent g but +l represents rg & +r represents lg. -- Sameboat - 同舟 ( talk) 07:10, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

That someone I believe is me. And i am still working on it. But there are so many icons that people are coming up with, that I've been scaling it back to BASIC icons.

There are several problems derived from the fact that to many people were doing their stuff. The original concept was made by
de:User:Bernina, he introduced the the "driving" direction from top to bottom and to see left and right in driving direction.
After the transfer to commons, the project lost it's consistency. Especially en-WP introduced tons of new icons, very often disregarding the original naming convention, e.g. prefix-"H" which should have been a suffix, suffix-"ELEV" that should have been a prefix, ...
But worst of all, en-WP decided to rename icons at their will, e.g. changing prefix order "et" and "ext" to "te" and "tex", ignoring the fact, that other projects still make use of the {{ BSe}}-template – especially the project that invented the whole BSicon-system!
In the light of those problems commons:Commons:Icons for railway descriptions should be the right place to discuss BSicon related questions! There (on commons) we discussed several adjustments during the last months, including the question how to name the CONT icons, maybe we should install a central project talk page there ... axpde Hello! 11:01, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
1. I just was intrigued after reading the page on the Welsh Highland Railway why that diagram is red but the mainline is blue = light rail. It's clear that the creators of this diagram were forced to "reverse" the color key to make the distinction between the Welsh Highland Narrow Gauge railway and the Cambrian Line which by definition is a standard gauge heavy rail line.
Could I therefore suggest you create a third color, for instance green for rail networks that are neither heavy or light rail lines e.g. dock railways or mine railways for instance? They may use a smaller gauge, but are no light rail or heavy rail. Just a suggestion but it might help because I was confused by the WHR diagram.
2. BTW I think it's confusing to use a light color to indicate that the track is not used, is out of use or there is no longer any rail at all. The color should either represent the track in situ or the track bed. i don't think it should represent both or for that matter an inactive line. It just makes it very confusing when identifying what is new or not. 109.155.66.42 ( talk) 22:48, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
