At what point should the 8th Street (HBLR station) be added as the future western terminus of the 22nd Street—Hoboken Terminal line of the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail? I was thinking of adding it in the routebox at 22nd Street (HBLR station) somehow. Not the way Brunswick (Amtrak station) was added to Portland, Maine (Amtrak station), but something better. ---- DanTD ( talk) 05:36, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
After failing to get a better picture of the Melrose MN station than its Wiki article already has, I pedalled east and saw this line running south. It passed west of the former Bronx Boro Courthouse, ran along the western side of St Ann's Avenue, and disappeared into St Ann's Park. Darkness approaching, I didn't chase it through the park to its presumed connection to Amtrak but went home over Third Avenue Bridge. Also got some shots from Westchester Avenue. Any idea what article this former rail line belongs to, if one has been written? Jim.henderson ( talk) 00:04, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
As of Nov. 1, AOL has shut down its FTP space, and all websites they were hosting have been deleted. This will mean plenty of broken links where hometown or members AOL pages are linked to! This includes mine, which has been cited here, even before I even joined (so I didn't do it ;-). So I have scrambled the last couple of days to move them. My new address is | http://www.erictb.info/linehistory.html and | http://www.erictb.info/carhistory.html.

Chckmtechmp138 ( contribs, talk) is creating a ton of stub articles about the IRT Second Avenue Line in New York. The articles all have one citation, and perhaps some are notable (though likely better as a list), but all are very short and poorly formatted. I've tried to contact the user on his talk page and ask him to stop creating articles until he has learned about formatting, but he's not responding. What do people suggest as a course of action? Flying Toaster 05:01, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
This editor has created articles for dozens of defunct stations. See:
For the vast majority of these stations, I think it is highly doubtful that they could ever advance beyond stub status. There simply isn't enough information out there to justify a separate article for each one.
As an aside, many of them do not adhere to the naming convention used for the other subway station articles, but that's beside the point if the articles do not survive, which I do not believe they should. I will place notices on the talk pages of the two editors who are working on these articles. Marc Shepherd ( talk) 20:43, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Since last night, this editor has now created articles for dozens more defunct elevated stations in Brooklyn, on the former BMT Fulton Street Line, BMT Fifth Avenue Line, and so forth. He is ignoring past suggestions about how articles should be written—not using correct templates, not following the style guidelines, and so forth. Marc Shepherd ( talk) 13:37, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
While I was looking for information on individual stations, I found a New York Times article which mentioned 66th Street–Lincoln Center (IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line) and added it to the article on the station.

Slightly on the subject of mass Transit in the South Ferry area, I've been trying to make an infobox for South Ferry (IRT elevated station), but I can't seem to find a way to add more than two lines. I've already got the box hidden, so is there any way to add all four lines to it? ---- DanTD ( talk) 16:07, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
A sample of the proposed Whitehall Street-South Ferry can be seen at User:Imdanumber1/Sandbox. If anyone feels that any changes should be made, go ahead. I want to have the article up and runnung before the station is proposed to open (next week!!!). — Imdanumber1 ( talk • contribs • email) 13:37, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

The article looks great; I'm really impressed by everyone's hard work. Right after school, I went straight to the new terminal and took a few shots of the station, and it's BEAUTIFUL. I'll have the pictures up tomorrow. I'll even put some videos on my YouTube page (same as my WP userpage.) — Imdanumber1 ( talk • contribs • email) 22:34, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
Hi! I'd like to draw your attention to the new WikiProject coordinators' working group, an effort to bring both official and unofficial WikiProject coordinators together so that the projects can more easily develop consensus and collaborate. This group has been created after discussion regarding possible changes to the A-Class review system, and that may be one of the first things discussed by interested coordinators.
All designated project coordinators are invited to join this working group. If your project hasn't formally designated any editors as coordinators, but you are someone who regularly deals with coordination tasks in the project, please feel free to join as well. — Delievered by §hepBot ( Disable) on behalf of the WikiProject coordinators' working group at 06:08, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
I really think that City Hall (IRT Lexington Avenue Line) is a pretty fascinating station. It was the first station on the city's first subway line, and its the only subway station that features a significant amount of architecture. Anyway, I'd like to work on the article and get it to GA-status and was wondering if anyone was interested in helping out because I don't feel like getting involved in working on the entire article by myself. I get pretty dedicated to articles (take a look at U2 3D) and I think this could get to featured article status someday. – Dream out loud ( talk) 01:51, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows ( full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to
report bugs and
request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a
"news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none
parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at

I have been working on an overhaul of Template:Infobox NYCS. The template should be more readable and better to understand and expand. It will include more parameters and simplify some existing ones. More details on Template talk:Infobox NYCS#Overhaul. -- Tinlinkin ( talk) 02:34, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
I just thought some of you would like to know that all the offical URL's of the Long Island Rail Road stations have changed. I did at least two stations on the Atlantic Branch and Jamaica (LIRR station), but there are plenty more to do. I don't know if the ones for Metro-North Stations have been changed, but they should be examined as well.
Just out of curiosity, if we were to convert all the LIRR & Metro-North offical links into templates, as you see with Amtrak and Metra stations, would this thrwart the need to convert the offical links when the LIRR & Metro-North changes them? ---- DanTD ( talk) 01:05, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
I just tried to split the Template:S-line/MNRR right/Harlem between the current terminus at Wassaic and the former terminus at Chatham, and it didn't work. Would somebody mind telling me what I did wrong? ---- DanTD ( talk) 19:02, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
I'd like to find a way to fix two color bars for some Long Island Rail Road lines. The first is the "Greenport Branch," which since it's merley an extension of the Ronkonkoma Branch should be the same color. The other is the Rockaway Beach Branch, which I'd like to turn gray. The same goes for if anybody else decided to write an article about a station on a non-existant line for some reason. That is of course, unless somebody knows of an official color for those lines that the LIRR had that I don't know about. I just can't find the color code for gray. ---- DanTD ( talk) 17:12, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
There's a new proposal to move Port Authority Trans-Hudson here. (Obviously I do not support it.) Tinlinkin ( talk) 09:42, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
Introduction: I recently edited Template:New York City Subway and Template:NYCS lines navbox to add colors to those templates. The following are comments related to those changes, moved from my talk page. Tinlinkin ( talk) 00:18, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
While I definately agree that the colorboxes you added to the general NYC Subway navbox are a great addition, due to the extensive use of color on public maps, signs and other things related to the routes, I was thinking it might no be so appropriate for the Subway line navbox, considering that many lines are often used by multiple routes. It certainly looks funny to see that many color boxes next to the Queens Blvd line. Just wanted you thoughts on the matter. oknazevad ( talk) 21:17, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
I also do not like the current version of Template:New York City Subway. The reason is, being a navbox for services, when you are on a service page, you will need to know the current page you are on. My preference is my previous version, which also is consistent with the format of other transit navboxes that have colors. Tinlinkin ( talk) 00:28, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
I haven't really thought through the arguments for or against the colors in the navbox (my gut says no), but I think the one with letters inside the color box looks way too busy. There's too much going on inside the box. Larry V ( talk | e-mail) 04:00, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
So I gotta ask, is there a consensus here for Template:New York City Subway? Tinlinkin ( talk) 02:42, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
I should mention now that I am planning to add colors to pages such as List of New York City Subway stations and the infoboxes for individual stations, and I have already applied color to List of New York City Subway lines. If you think there will be issues surrounding all of this, it's best to say so now. Tinlinkin ( talk) 04:34, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
Ack. Don't color links; blue and red have meanings here. -- NE2 16:03, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
As clarification... I support use of bullets and colors whenever and wherever, describing services only. I have a problem with colors being used when describing a line because they can be very transitory. D in Brooklyn, is it the Culver Local, Brighton Express or West End Local? Depends on the time-frame. (As an aside, maybe this is why the R160 F announcements this past weekend, via the C line drove me bonkers. It's via the Fulton St local!) Even though the BMT 63rd St line is scheduled to be serviced by the yellow Q, I think that describing the line with a yellow swatch is misleading. It could be served by an orange K or V later. The same goes with many other lines. In any case, if the standard template for service bullets is used, one problem is that it can't be used as a link to that service page. I think we should always include a link to the service page with text whenever a service bullet is used except for inside an infobox. Acps110 ( talk) 22:10, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
Can anybody identify these approximately dozen structures in Van Cortlandt Park? Jim.henderson ( talk) 03:38, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
Should I create categories such as Category:Defunct BMT Jamaica Line stations?
Also, I am planning to create categories that group NYC Subway stations by borough, such as Category:New York City Subway stations in the Bronx. Question: within each such category, should I put individual stations or entire line categories? I'm thinking the former.
And I have proposed to rename Category:IND Culver Line stations and Category:Independent Subway System (New York City). Tinlinkin ( talk) 04:23, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
An IP is claiming that the Cobble Hill Tunnel was a "subway" system (or subway tunnel, at least) before the inception of the London Underground, and has repeatedly edited the latter article, inserting that claim (i.e. [3]).
