TTC NovaBus LFS HEV 3402 on it's third day of service. Photo taken on Queen Street (February 1, 2019). I would add it myself but I'm still learning how to properly add thumbnails. I can always re-size it if need be.

That probably doesnt meet the criteria needed, the photo is too blurry.

Whoever is the owner of these photos, if you still want these added to the wiki, I need the originals so please send me a PM and I'll give you my email. Thanks.

The current photo of 7876 is older so I'm providing a more recent one. TTC 7876 is seen parked on Bingham Ave. at Kingston Rd. before setting out on the 502 bustitution. Taken on September 13, 2018.

Yes I mind. You provide one and I provide one.

I dont think both of your photos meet the criteria needed though. For a good picture to be posted, it needs to have a good angle, and sufficient lighting on the bus. The side of both of your pics are very dark.

Then I'll edit it. image.thumb.png.e9f3262f3dafc2233ccbe459cc86deb2.png

Personally I don't really agree with deleting older photos and replacing them with more current, up-to-date ones. If you have a photograph that is unique to what we have on the wiki in some way, I think you should link it in the vehicle notes, like this individual did with their pre-refurbishment photos of GO buses:

Figured I wouldn't start a whole new thread for this, but W203's HTML text is, well, not working (and someone would see it first here).

This is what it says:

Repainted</font> into LFLRV livery in 2018.

Don't think the ending tag of the font script is supposed to be there.

Thanks. Oh yeah, does my photo of the back of TTC1 meet criteria? (for future personal quality standards)

Then explain how the photos of 7733, 7737, 7751, 7762, 7773, 7776, 7783, 7802, 7828 and 8322 were chosen.

Don't ask me that, ask whoever uploaded those the reason why they uploaded it. Also that 7802 pic, the person who put in that pic got banned I believe for putting shitty images on CPTDB.k.thumb.JPG.fe6aff6e30ef767572f3b96cf4b65d67.JPG That's what happens when you post bad pics

As someone who uploaded much of the aforementioned photos, I would like to defend my choices.

In the case of a mobile photo with the bus partially out of frame, the actual bus is cut off. In the case of a head on shot, like the aforementioned ones I posted, the entire actual bus is in the shot, but you can't see all of it... similar to how you won't ever see the rear of the bus in a front photograph. It just happens to be a different angle.  So treating them as the same type of photograph feels like a bit of a false equivalence.

That being said, I am not married  to the idea of any of these photos being the showcase photos for any of the aforementioned buses. If anyone believes that any of the aforementioned photos go counter to wiki guidelines, then by all means, feel free to delete them. However, I had no reason to believe that they would provoke ire as there are quite a few photos on the TTC rosters that are head on shots, or the bus is partially obscured by a car, pole, construction equipment, etc. Those have been up for years and no one has ever complained about them, so I didn't anticipate that it would be my head on shots that would generate controversy. I just saw that the buses didn't have photographs uploaded, and I knew I had photos of them, so I thought I'd volunteer mine.

Thanks for your insight. I've done this to some of the TTC wiki pages.
