The file contains a corrupted Aztec code, looking at the core it seems to be scaled down too much - some rows/columns are missing. Moreover the file name is wrong: it is not a DataMatrix code. miktalk 15:26, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This code is by intention corrupted because it was originally taken from a personal train ticket and I did not want to expose any information by publishing it. It is "for illustrative purpose only" as written in the description. In 2005 this was the only way for me to get an illustration of this kind of code. Today there are many generators that could be used to create a code not containing critical information. I am not opposing complete to the deletion, because it is currently not used except in my personal gallery and there may be better illustrations today. Just keep in mind that it may be useful one day as a historical source. -- Dr. Schorsch (talk) 15:36, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
