Talk:Skybus Metro

message: :comments copied from Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Trains
In looking through :Category:Rail stubs today, I came across Skybus Metro. The system sounds like any of a number of suspended railways such as Schwebebahn Wuppertal or H-Bahn.
The whole thing reads like advertising copy, but Googling for key phrases didn't come up with anything similar to delete it as a copy of someone else's work.  I was tempted to nominate it on WP:AFD as original research because the name in the attached link is suspiciously close to the article author's name.  Thoughts?

replies: text: The article really looks like advertisement text copied into Wikipedia. I am not shure if the whole article should be deleted. I think better solution would be to gain some knowledge about Skybus metro and re-write the article in proper style. CCMichalZ 18:59, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, I just found :Image:Skybus Metro.pdf which has complete technical detail and artist conception diagrams of the service.  I also found a couple articles in the news media about it: , , , and there's a description at the Indian Railways Fan Club site (although the photos page currently returns an error).  According to the news, Konkan Railway has begun construction on a test section of such a system in Bangalore, so even though we've got what looks like advertising and original research now, it looks like something that we should keep; let's get it cleaned up and referenced and up to snuff.  I'm copying this discussion to the article talk page.  Further comments should be left there. Slambo (Speak) 14:42, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

text: PDFs deleted as clearly Original Research. This article is strongly POV and that needs reducing; arguably it would be as well served by a para in a suspended railways article. --AlisonW 21:01, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The article is POV and needs a re-write, but a recent project of this magnitude should merit an article. The test track claimed at 10+km long, and it appears the cars are near operational. If a similar effort were taking place in an American city, we would not hesitate to include it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.138.44 (talk) 15:54, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

message: :Image:NewSkyBus3.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
