Background

edit

Paragraph 1

edit
  • "The Saverne Tunnel was constructed as part of the second phase of the LGV Est européenne (often shortened to LGV Est)." --> No source
  • "When completed, the line will connect Paris and Strasbourg—the principal city of the Alsace region and home to several European institutions, including the Council of Europe." --> No source
  • "The first phase across 300 kilometres (190 mi) of relatively flat land from Vaires-sur-Marne (near Paris) to Baudrecourt (near Metz and Nancy) opened in 2007." --> No source

Paragraph 2

edit
  • All good!

Construction

edit

Paragraph 1

edit
  • Shouldn't the second appearance of "Lot 47" be italicized?
  • And in all cases, since its first appearance is italicized?
  • "The Saverne Tunnel was built by Spie Batignolles and Dodin Campenon-Bernard.[4][6] According to RFF, the total cost of the tunnel was approximately €200 million.[5]" --> "The Saverne Tunnel was built by Spie Batignolles and Dodin Campenon-Bernard,[4][6] and according to RFF, costed approximately €200 million.[5]"
  • I removed the italics, because it is not a name that should be italicized per MOS:ITALICS. I changed the sentences to "The Saverne Tunnel was built by Spie Batignolles and Dodin Campenon-Bernard,[4][6] at a cost of approximately €200 million.[5]" AHeneen (talk) 07:30, 23 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Paragraph 2

edit
  • Please insert a comma in between "(TBM)" and "manufactured by..."

Paragraph 4

edit
  • "but has been delayed until 3 July 2016 due to an a fatal accident elsewhere on the new line during testing of the LGV Est.[1]" --> "but has been delayed until 3 July 2016 due to a fatal accident elsewhere on the new line during testing of the LGV Est.[1]"
  • It is now "Service on the LGV Est line was originally scheduled to begin on 3 April 2016;[19] however, a fatal accident that occurred elsewhere on the new line in November 2015 during commissioning tests has delayed the scheduled opening of the line until 3 July 2016.[2]" AHeneen (talk) 07:30, 23 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Characteristics

edit

Paragraph 1

edit
  • "It is located within three communes—Eckartswiller, Saint-Jean-Saverne, Ernolsheim-lès-Saverne—of the department of Bas-Rhin and is close to the border with the department of Moselle.[18]" --> "It is located within three communes of the department of Bas-Rhin: Eckartswiller, Saint-Jean-Saverne, Ernolsheim-lès-Saverne; it's also close to the border with the department of Moselle.[18]"
  • Rest is great! Fantastic work!
