What is the reason for deletion of the picture: D2 Police Combo1.jpg ?

Last time ANOTHER version of this picture was deleted due to insufficient copyright tagging - see history.

Now this picture is properly posted on Wikimedia Commons.

Why did you delete it this time? If this is a mistake, I would appreciate your restoring the picture.

Thank you, Konstantin

[edit] Wiki is an Information Source

Dear Julien -

I agree that Wiki should not be an advertising space. While I share your concern, I respectfully disagree with the rest of your arguments.

Non-gaming driving simulation is a relatively narrow field with a very few and somewhat reclusive players. How many non-copyrighted driving simulator pictures have you seen posted on the Net? One? Two?

I would love for every simulator maker to post their pictures and contribute descriptions. After all, this industry exists because of these companies. And every simulator is unique.

I would never object to the competitor’s postings. I even disagree with your removal of FAAC’s name, although they are our competitor. Plus, as you can see, there is already a picture posted in this article - by Lander Simulation (along with the mention of a couple others in the text). Following your logic I should have removed it.

One could also question your own professional affiliation and your zeal in removal of brand names, but I am stopping short of doing that.

There is a lot to be added to the driving simulator article. It can be done only by people with expertise in the area. Most of these people are affiliated with simulation companies. If you could ban them from adding information to this article, you would defeat the informational purpose of the Wiki.

As removal of McDonald's name from the fast food article is not going to benefit anyone, so the removal of brand names from driving simulator article will not make it better.

Rather than questioning other people's postings, I would encourage you to contribute your pieces of knowledge to the Wiki. It will be a happier place for everyone ...

Regards, Konstantin

[edit] Ok for information

Dear Konstantin,

of course i have a link with driving simulation software.

this wiki page has improved a lot from its beginning and people try to keep this page out of company name, as there is the global external link from inrets which gives an impressive list.

the aim of this page driving simulator is to explain what is the driving simulation, and not who sells what.

if you want the driving simulator can become as the one of train simulator , not interesting at all, and only a commercial page, let's continue like this...

i don't want to ban anybody adding some expertise in this area, but not adding a company name on each lane in this article could be nice.

concerning the picture, i think you are right. lets people add their own picture here..

regards julien
