Trestle vs Truss

[edit]

Your photo in Wikimedia commons, File:Side by side comparison of a Suspension bridge to Trestle Bridge, located in Steubenville Ohio..jpg is mis-titled. I fixed the description (it shows a cable-stayed bridge, not a suspension bridge, and it shows a cantelever truss bridge, not a trestle), but you will have to deal with the need for a title change (the mechanism for doing that in Wikimedia Commons works best if the author requests the change). Also, since it does not show any kind of trestle, I removed the image from the wikipedia page for trestle.

I would suggest getting the tile changed to something like "old and new Steubenville bridges" (a title need not be a full caption), and get this change done before using the photo to illustrate, for example, cable stayed bridges and cantelever truss bridges.

By the way, the photo is a nice panorama. In my effort to add a geolocation tag to the image, I conclude that you must have had fun scrambling off the edge of the bluff below Franciscan University in order to take it. Douglas W. Jones (talk) 16:52, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
