Edits I make were made in good faith.

Sandbox

Most edits will be on pages related to the Chicagoland area, particularly Metra commuter rail and the O'Hare Flyer proposal, but I may make an exception elsewhere for a noticeable typo or vandalism.

Created BSicons

This list has two purposes. First, it shows which BSicons I have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons (because I was a bit proud of myself for figuring it out.) Second, you will know who to blame if I uploaded anything incorrectly.

Completed projects

The first "major" project I completed was a Route diagram template for Metra, which can be found on Metra's main page. I have also helped to recolor all of the individual Metra line diagrams, the South Shore Line diagram, the main Metrolink diagram, and certain statewide passenger rail diagrams, with special attention paid to Illinois' diagram.

With the first RDT, I believe I was in over my head because I had no idea how to make the map, but I was tired of looking at the outdated SVG image provided. Also, most of the other major commuter rail systems (LIRR, Metro-North, SEPTA, NJ Transit, GO Transit, Metrolink, etc.) have good templates. So should Metra.

Many thanks to users like Useddenim and VanIsaac for editing, guiding, and making new icons when they did not yet exist in the right color. They helped make it feel easier and I hope to tackle more BSicon projects soon.

RDT segments

Some RDTs I have worked on have identical portions in every respect except color. These segments below are used in two or three diagrams. They can be changed to whatever color is needed in the specific RDT, as long as all icons are available in said color.

There was one "{" missing when I made this. That was intentional. Nobody fell for it as far as I knew at the time because it was on my user page. Fortunately, there is a nonzero number of names on the "Prank'd list" below.
