Portal:Trains/Selected picture candidates

Procedure[edit]

Find an image related to rail transport that you think is very good. It need not be a current Featured Picture, but if it is, it could only help the nomination.
In the nominations section below, add a third level section header with the linked image title as the section name (=== [[:File:Image title]] ===). Below this new header, add your reasons for nomination and sign your nomination with ~~~~.
- Be sure to use the leading colon in the section heading so it displays as a link and not as the image.
- It is helpful to include a thumbnail of the image within the nomination section. If you do, be sure to put a line break ({{-}}) at the end of the nomination section so nominations don't all flow together.

If you approve of a picture, write "Support" followed by your reasons.
- A nomination is considered a vote in support, so nominators don't need to add another vote to their nominations.
If you oppose a nomination, write "Oppose" followed by the reasons for your objection. Where possible, objections should provide a specific rationale that can be addressed.
- To withdraw an objection, strike it out (with <s>...</s>) rather than removing it.

As images are promoted, their discussions will be moved to the Archive.
