Manila-centric

edit

This article is very Manila-centric. There is nothing about the Panay Railway or railways on Negros, Mindanao and other islands. --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 03:03, 6 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Before WWII and during the early part of it there was an intercity rail running the length of Luzon, so which city is being discussed here? If it's Manila, the paragraph should say so. "Most of the improvements on the rail network were destroyed during Japanese invasion of the Philippines during the World War II. Of the more than a thousand route-kilometers before the war, only 452 were operational after it. For several years after the war, work was undertaken on what could be salvaged of the railroad system.[21] By the war's end, the tram network was also damaged beyond repair amid a city that lay in ruins. It was dismantled and jeepneys became the city's primary form of transportation, plying the routes once served by the tram lines.[16] With the return of buses and cars to the streets, traffic congestion became a problem."

Sequence of Sections: Under Construction before Planned Projects

edit

In the hierarchy of sections, Under Construction must come ahead of Planned Projects. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Miles2north (talkcontribs) 01:27, 11 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

I agree with this observation. Sequence should be Existing -> Under Construction -> Planned Korean Rail Fan 02:22, 11 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in Rail transport in the Philippines

edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Rail transport in the Philippines's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "yellow":

  • From Metro Manila Subway: The LRT Line 1 System – The Yellow Line. [ca. 2010]. Light Rail Transit Authority. Retrieved 19 January 2010. Archived 1 March 2009 at the Wayback Machine
  • From Manila Light Rail Transit System: The Line 1 System – The Yellow Line. [ca. 2010]. Light Rail Transit Authority. Retrieved January 19, 2010. Archived March 1, 2009, at the Wayback Machine
  • From Philippines: "The Line 1 System – The Green Line". Light Rail Transit Authority. Archived from the original on July 14, 2014. Retrieved January 15, 2016.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 19:44, 27 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
