Talk:Moscow Metro/Archive 5

Centipede

Several articles mention that a particular city or line or station uses the conventional "sorokonozhka" or "column and tri-span" design, but I see no general architectural article that addresses this topic. Can someone write one? Jim.henderson (talk) 22:04, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Merger proposal

I have proposed that the article History of the Moscow Metro is merged in to the history section of this article. The separate article is very short, far shorter than the history section of this article. I don't see that the topic merits a separate article as it currently stands Grunners (talk) 16:57, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

I disagree, the original History article was started by me but I have never got round to expanding it to the scale it deserves. I hope to do so someday, but surely the main article will need a condensed form, whilst the history in expanded. --Kuban Cossack (По-балакаем?) 13:23, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

The right course of action is to expand the current article rather then merge or deleting it —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.68.128.79 (talk) 17:14, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Vorobyovy Gory station description

The article states that Vorobyovy Gory station "is unique in the world being built into a lower level of a bridge". This is a grand claim to fame and I believe it is incorrect: as one counterexample, the Donauinsel station on Vienna's U1 metro line is on the lower level of a bridge. I'll leave it to others to decide whether to correct the article or not. Iperboreano (talk) 18:20, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
