Illustrations for sites considered

[edit]

Re: Change by User:Joeyconnick described as "better as references because they are being used as references, as opposed to being used in an illustrative way". The diagrams were were intended as illustrations rather than references. The text already had a reference. The illustrations were provided because what they show would be difficult to impossible to describe in words. By presenting the links as references, most readers would assume there are no illustrations because they look like just another reference. I was thinking of putting the links to the illustrations in External links, but that would detach them from their corresponding text and they would loose context. (I originally coded them such as Hillcrest Complex, but that apparantly violates some editorial standard.) May I restore the "External media" template? I saw it used in other articles for the same purpose. TheTrolleyPole (talk) 02:17, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

that apparently violates some editorial standard. That would be WP:ELPOINTS, point 2. Fairly fundamental guidance. It does say {{External media}} can be used, however. I'm still not sure why these illustrations are so valuable (they are really poor quality) but I'll revert myself. —Joeyconnick (talk) 05:53, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I find the illustrations to be interesting what-if's, especially the one for the Hillcrest Complex which might come to fruition in future (Hillcrest Complex#Proposed carhouse). TheTrolleyPole (talk) 14:03, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
