Location[edit]

The image appears to be in Alexandria, not Fairfax County Tedickey (talk) 10:30, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm - the picture's not crisp, but as I read the signs (and starting with Interstate 95 in Virginia as a guide), that appears to be approaching exits 3/3A from the (north)east (since the signs for 495 indicate it's further, as well as Franconia). Tedickey (talk) 21:08, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Agreeing that Lincolnia is in Fairfax County - that would be a few miles west and a little north of the position where the picture was made - in Alexandria. Tedickey (talk) 10:17, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh... alright. So what do we do now to change the title? NeonFire (talk) 15:46, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Something like "I-95 in Northern Virginia" would cover it. I suggest moving the image to the corresponding name, so its relationship to captions is clearer. Tedickey (talk) 17:33, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
How do I change the title? :| NeonFire (talk) 00:07, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You select the "move" tab for the topic, and specify the new name (and a reason of course). Wikipedia replaces the existing name with a redirect to the new name. At the same time, it tells you how to remove the old name if you want. When I do a move, I check on "What links here", and update links in the pages that point to the old name. Right now, for instance, there are two topics pointing to this image. Tedickey (talk) 00:30, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, someone updated the summary noting that it's technically I-395 on that stretch, since I-95's been routed on the Beltway for some time. Tedickey (talk) 20:18, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move[edit]

I-95 in Fairfax County Virginia.JPG → I-395 in Fairfax County, Virginia.JPG — The captions on both articles including this photo indicate that it is actually I-395. — Tckma (talk) 16:49, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion[edit]

Any additional comments:
  • I uploaded the picture. I realize now that it is I-395, not I-95 but there's no move tab on the actual page of the file. There's a move tab on this page (File talk:I-95 in Fairfax County Virginia.JPG). NeonFire (talk) 20:18, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have moved the image per request and will be moving the talk page. --Tckma (talk) 15:34, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This picture is not even located in the County of Fairfax, Virginia. Why is it in this article!?!?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.143.163.107 (talk) 17:12, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
