There were supposed to be two phases of the metro. I think, with the completion of line 3, the Phase I is over, and the phase II has started (to be completed by 2010 commonwealth games). These details can be mentioned. deeptrivia ( talk) 22:44, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Hello Ashish, According to the IRFCA website, Line 2 is the 'Blue Line' and Line 3 is 'Yellow line'. I am quoting a few lines from that page,
"Construction on the underground Line 2 (the 'Blue Line') was at an advanced stage by [1/03]. Both..."
"Line 3 (the 'Yellow Line') running Indraprastha - Barakhamba Road - Dwarka - Dwarka Sub City was recently [2003] approved by the Central and State governments."
Is the website wrong? - Ganeshk 01:36, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
Here's the article from the Indian Express which gives the correct colours. This information can also be verified from first person accounts on the Delhi Metro discussion group archives. The info on IRFCA website needs to be corrected.
I believe DMRC is somewhat guilty of creating this number vs. colour confusion. They started out giving numbers for each lines, however after the Line 2 (or Yellow Line) was opened, they changed the lines to have distinct colours instead of numbers. Unfortunately the DMRC website does not provide this information at this point. By the way, as most Delhi residents would know, the private buses in Delhi have also had various colourful names such as Red Line, Blue Line etc. -- vashisht 02:44, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
"It became the second rapid transit system in India, after the one in operation in Kolkata."

Where does this "Delhi Mass Rapid Transit System" name come from? As far as I can see, the Delhi Metro website consistently uses the name "Delhi Metro", and it's certainly the more common name per WP:NAME. I will move the article back unless there are objections.

yup, its better to move it to delhi metro. Bharathmeister ( talk) 18:32, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
This section (on Phases 3&4) seems overly speculative and unnecessary on the page as it merely clutters up the article. Perhaps this could be better summarised in a couple of lines rather than the cumbersome lists? Regards, SBC-YPR ( talk) 10:42, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
Less than two weeks after removing the section beyond Delhi borders from the Phase III routes, the information needs to be retyped out. Delhi Metro phases are never concrete till they are complete. For instance, the Violet Line. It was only approved after phase II had commenced construction. Likewise, other routes may be added on. It would be good to avoid being rash in editing documents.

Please refer Wikipedia:When_to_use_tables before inserting images in tables. Iapain wiki ( talk) 12:49, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
The links to the sub-articles on the various lines of the Metro should use the Main template, rather than linking from the table itself. This would avoid overlinking, and comply with the requirements of summary style. Also, the only rapid transit FAs that have more than one line - namely, Mass Rapid Transit (Singapore) and SkyTrain (Vancouver), which could be used as models for this article - follow this format of using the {{Main}} template. Regards, SBC-YPR ( talk) 15:26, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
In the article, it is stated that "as of January 2010, Phase I and II are completed." But clearly, other parts of the article (including the metro map) are still stuck in July 2009. Please change this.

Comment: Funding section conviniently forgets to mention Japan's contribution. Looks like someone went to great lengths to remove any mention of Japan's role in funding the metro. A real shame since the metro would probably not be there without Japan's contribtuion. 65.51.218.48 ( talk) 04:34, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
Reviewer: Arsenikk (talk) 13:28, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
Overall, the article seems a bit short, and lacks some coverage of some areas I would like to see more about. Two articles I would recommend to look at for examples of good metro articles is SkyTrain (Vancouver) and Copenhagen Metro. In particular, the lead is far to short, history section "stops" in 2002, and the network section needs to be expanded considerably. There are also a few MOS and other issues as mentioned below.

Overall, very interesting and well-written article, although somewhat short in some places. I am placing the article on hold. Arsenikk (talk) 13:28, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
I am failing the article. It has been five weeks since the initial review, and ten days since the last amendment of comments from me. The general rule is that is an article cannot be fixed up to meet the criteria within a week, it should be failed. Given the exhaustive time that has passed, and the lack of compliance with standards for popular culture-related issues, I am forced to fail the article. On the good side, the article has been significantly improved through the process, so it has by far not been wasted. Arsenikk (talk) 08:57, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

There is nothing about the manufacturer and how the coaches were transported. Challiyan ( talk) 11:38, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
This is with respect to the recent changes in the Delhi Metro article. The following changes have been made.
For the first change I referred few GAs such as Oslo Metro, Copehagen Metro. Some use img+logo in infobox and some use just logo in the infobox. I oppose the second change as there is no need for adding the route map of a line as it is already prsent in the resp. line article and it makes the article difficult to read. As for the third change it doesnt really matter where to put the network map img.
Please express your views so that the necessary changes can be made for the article to remain a WP:GA. Thanks. WorLD8115 (TalK) 13:43, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

On 2nd December 2021, the CAG published a report on the implementation of Phase-3 of Delhi Metro. The report highlighted quite a few issues with the execution of the project. So I was wondering if the things mentioned in the report could be included in the Delhi Metro page somewhere (probably in the Problems section)? Here [1] is the link for anyone interested in reading the report.
References
This article is good on the lines, stations, history of construction, train controls, but says almost nothing about fares, fare collection, and revenues compared to operating costs. There is mention that fares are distance based; does the rider present token or card to a machine on entering and exiting, when the fare is subtracted? What do those machines look like?
The discussion of finances is brief and uses acronyms that are not common. I added what I think they mean. Does this transit company pay taxes, though it is government-owned? Quite confusing. Revenue does not cover operating cost, I believe. Often among transit operators that shortfall is expressed as fare box ratio, the percent of annual fare revenue divided by the annual operating budget. It is not clear if the system is expected to cover its capital budget from fares, or from other sources of revenue. The graph with a line labeled as Profits, that was surprising and confusing. I hope someone knowledgeable on the revenue and fare collection can make these topics clearer to people who do not live in Delhi. - - Prairieplant ( talk) 23:49, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello Ashish, According to the IRFCA website, Line 2 is the 'Blue Line' and Line 3 is 'Yellow line'. I am quoting a few lines from that page,
"Construction on the underground Line 2 (the 'Blue Line') was at an advanced stage by [1/03]. Both..."
"Line 3 (the 'Yellow Line') running Indraprastha - Barakhamba Road - Dwarka - Dwarka Sub City was recently [2003] approved by the Central and State governments."
Is the website wrong? - Ganeshk 01:36, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
Here's the article from the Indian Express which gives the correct colours. This information can also be verified from first person accounts on the Delhi Metro discussion group archives. The info on IRFCA website needs to be corrected.
I believe DMRC is somewhat guilty of creating this number vs. colour confusion. They started out giving numbers for each lines, however after the Line 2 (or Yellow Line) was opened, they changed the lines to have distinct colours instead of numbers. Unfortunately the DMRC website does not provide this information at this point. By the way, as most Delhi residents would know, the private buses in Delhi have also had various colourful names such as Red Line, Blue Line etc. -- vashisht 02:44, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
"It became the second rapid transit system in India, after the one in operation in Kolkata."

Where does this "Delhi Mass Rapid Transit System" name come from? As far as I can see, the Delhi Metro website consistently uses the name "Delhi Metro", and it's certainly the more common name per WP:NAME. I will move the article back unless there are objections.

This section (on Phases 3&4) seems overly speculative and unnecessary on the page as it merely clutters up the article. Perhaps this could be better summarised in a couple of lines rather than the cumbersome lists? Regards, SBC-YPR ( talk) 10:42, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
Less than two weeks after removing the section beyond Delhi borders from the Phase III routes, the information needs to be retyped out. Delhi Metro phases are never concrete till they are complete. For instance, the Violet Line. It was only approved after phase II had commenced construction. Likewise, other routes may be added on. It would be good to avoid being rash in editing documents.

The links to the sub-articles on the various lines of the Metro should use the Main template, rather than linking from the table itself. This would avoid overlinking, and comply with the requirements of summary style. Also, the only rapid transit FAs that have more than one line - namely, Mass Rapid Transit (Singapore) and SkyTrain (Vancouver), which could be used as models for this article - follow this format of using the {{Main}} template. Regards, SBC-YPR ( talk) 15:26, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
In the article, it is stated that "as of January 2010, Phase I and II are completed." But clearly, other parts of the article (including the metro map) are still stuck in July 2009. Please change this.

Comment: Funding section conviniently forgets to mention Japan's contribution. Looks like someone went to great lengths to remove any mention of Japan's role in funding the metro. A real shame since the metro would probably not be there without Japan's contribtuion. 65.51.218.48 ( talk) 04:34, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
Reviewer: Arsenikk (talk) 13:28, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
Overall, the article seems a bit short, and lacks some coverage of some areas I would like to see more about. Two articles I would recommend to look at for examples of good metro articles is SkyTrain (Vancouver) and Copenhagen Metro. In particular, the lead is far to short, history section "stops" in 2002, and the network section needs to be expanded considerably. There are also a few MOS and other issues as mentioned below.

Overall, very interesting and well-written article, although somewhat short in some places. I am placing the article on hold. Arsenikk (talk) 13:28, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
I am failing the article. It has been five weeks since the initial review, and ten days since the last amendment of comments from me. The general rule is that is an article cannot be fixed up to meet the criteria within a week, it should be failed. Given the exhaustive time that has passed, and the lack of compliance with standards for popular culture-related issues, I am forced to fail the article. On the good side, the article has been significantly improved through the process, so it has by far not been wasted. Arsenikk (talk) 08:57, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

There is nothing about the manufacturer and how the coaches were transported. Challiyan ( talk) 11:38, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
This is with respect to the recent changes in the Delhi Metro article. The following changes have been made.
For the first change I referred few GAs such as Oslo Metro, Copehagen Metro. Some use img+logo in infobox and some use just logo in the infobox. I oppose the second change as there is no need for adding the route map of a line as it is already prsent in the resp. line article and it makes the article difficult to read. As for the third change it doesnt really matter where to put the network map img.
Please express your views so that the necessary changes can be made for the article to remain a WP:GA. Thanks. WorLD8115 (TalK) 13:43, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

On 2nd December 2021, the CAG published a report on the implementation of Phase-3 of Delhi Metro. The report highlighted quite a few issues with the execution of the project. So I was wondering if the things mentioned in the report could be included in the Delhi Metro page somewhere (probably in the Problems section)? Here [1] is the link for anyone interested in reading the report.
References
This article is good on the lines, stations, history of construction, train controls, but says almost nothing about fares, fare collection, and revenues compared to operating costs. There is mention that fares are distance based; does the rider present token or card to a machine on entering and exiting, when the fare is subtracted? What do those machines look like?
The discussion of finances is brief and uses acronyms that are not common. I added what I think they mean. Does this transit company pay taxes, though it is government-owned? Quite confusing. Revenue does not cover operating cost, I believe. Often among transit operators that shortfall is expressed as fare box ratio, the percent of annual fare revenue divided by the annual operating budget. It is not clear if the system is expected to cover its capital budget from fares, or from other sources of revenue. The graph with a line labeled as Profits, that was surprising and confusing. I hope someone knowledgeable on the revenue and fare collection can make these topics clearer to people who do not live in Delhi. - - Prairieplant ( talk) 23:49, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
