indiscriminate gallery edit

from WP:GALLERY:

a gallery consisting of an indiscriminate collection of images of the article subject should generally either be improved...or moved to Wikimedia Commons. Generally, a gallery or cluster of images should not be added so long as there is space for images to be effectively presented adjacent to text. A gallery section may be appropriate in some Wikipedia articles if a collection of images can illustrate aspects of a subject that cannot be easily or adequately described by text or individual images.

this particular gallery does not illustrate aspects not already adequately described in the prose. "this is the turnstile" does not further the understanding of this station's history, layout, or function. I propose images either be integrated into the prose or removed in accordance with the manual of style.

There is no space for these images anywhere else in the article, given that there's a long infobox, so per WP:GALLERY, it's fine. As well, one platform image is insufficient to illustrate a station when multiple quality photos exist. ɱ (talk) 22:52, 29 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
Then those images should be integrated into the prose. there's sufficient pace to put left-aligned images in the Station layout section. -MJ (talk) 23:04, 29 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Track 7 usage edit

Early 2024, RTA is doing work on the Track 8 side of the main platform, RTA is using track 7 for Westbound Red Line, This platform has been worked on or modified for this use while construction is being performed on the Track 8 side of the main platform. There is an entrance to track 7 on the Street Level floor of Tower City(M2)

This temporary platform uses a regular stairwell to get down to the platform as well as an elevator.

The platform consists of a makeshift platform using a ramp to reach train floor level. This is an island platform with tracks on both sides but the constructed platform only uses one side of the island. There are turnstiles and a gate attendant enclosed kiosk here.

I post this in here as I do not have the knowhow to edit the wiki page for the Red Line and am unsure if this would be seen as relevant as an addition to the wiki. Seluryar (talk) 04:50, 9 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
