I made a system map with a black background because I feel it looks better than the white version, but would a black version violate copyright because it's so close to the official TTC version? Transportfan70 ( talk) 05:39, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

@ Joeyconnick and Johnny Au: In the code for Toronto subway#Internet and mobile phone access, I found the comment: "Don't mention Rogers Communications purchasing Freedom Mobile's parent company, Shaw Communications, until the tunnels and stations officially have Rogers cellular service." Does this mean we cannot mention that Rogers acquired BAI, that Rogers customers can access BAI services, that all carriers can use the BAI system for 911 calls, that the federal government has decreed full cellphone and data services for the entire subway network by the end of 2026? Thus, must this section remain out of date until 2026? TheTrolleyPole ( talk) 23:53, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
I have made some clean-ups to the section. Joeyconnick and TheTrolleyPole, what do you think? Johnny Au ( talk/ contributions) 00:44, 16 September 2023 (UTC)

as an edit to a comment actually doesn't ping me. I assume you have to include it in the original edit that adds the comment for pinging to happen.Millsy0303, please see the discussion at Talk:Ontario Line#New Line 3 Logo and Colour, where it's clear there's no consensus as yet about using the purple (3) roundel. It's not controversial (that I know of) that they are planning to call the Ontario Line "Line 3" but the recently added icon is still the subject of debate. I reverted your edits because you added it, not because you referred to the Ontario Line as "Line 3". — Joeyconnick ( talk) 18:39, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
Is "light metro" really the best descriptor for the Ontario Line? None of the official government sources seem to use this term for it and only ever refer to it as a subway, and the linked article refers to systems that will uniformly have narrower and shorter trains than the Ontario Line (3m x 100m). The capacity will also be in line with the other heavy rail subway lines. Reecemartin558 ( talk) 22:48, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
