Old talk

What is the purpose of the various colours in the table? -- Emsworth 02:57, Feb 8, 2004 (UTC)

One would presume they isometrically related to the colour schema of the official map [1] or the bilingual versions of last year [2] [3] [4] which one may examine in detail. Your humble and obedient servant... — Alex756 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Alex756 talk] 06:37, 8 Feb 2004 (UTC)
  • Moscow Metro (diff, 11:18, Feb 8, 2004) -- Some details of WW2-era sabotage were removed by an anon user with the summary rm apparent vandalism. Was going to revert, but one of the users' only other two edits (to Abdul Rahman Munif) has a similar summary about "removing vandalism", but in that case what he removed does appear to have been completely made-up disinformation. So perhaps he knows what he's doing? --Delirium 11:23, Feb 8, 2004 (UTC)
Vandalism confirmed. The mentioned names are made up. Mikkalai 00:21, 9 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Apparently this article got mentioned in The Moscow Times (23 December, 2003) can anyone confirm this ?

I am putting back the plan of the metro, apparently it was taken out when the deleted image of the Arabat station was removed from the article. The Metro map is being used as fair use, it is an informational map and it is published by a public authority for the use of all who wish to use the Moscow metro. — © Alex756 18:53, 10 Apr 2004 (UTC)

The map is slightly outdated. It does not indicate the newly-built branch of the Filevskaya line with the Delovoy tsentr (Buisiness center) station.--Nixer 19:53, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Paragraph about homeless in Moscow metro has been removed, because there is no such. There are some around central railway stations, but not in metro. It's highly secured object.

Not true. There are a lot of homeless, especially on ring line, and beggars everywhere.--Achp ru 13:22, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Present official map also added. Elk Salmon 22:21, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

BS alert

A memorial armed battery was erected in the Gradsk Krutzin crossing to commemorate the train that was destroyed during the first sabotage and to remember those that died more recently.

It looks like total bullshit. I'm a Moscow resident, I read news regularly, and I have no recollection of such an event, neither have I heard of anything named "Gradsk Krutzin crossing" (sounds un-Russian). Can I remove this bit?

Otherwise, a great article. Respect from a daily Metro commuter! :) --Mzabaluev 14:10, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

  • I've already removed this BS once, but it popped up again, in different wording. Mikkalai 19:05, 4 Jun 2004 (UTC)
