Moscow Metro edit war edit

I want to let you know that I announced the edit war between you and Elk about the L1/12 line designation in Moscow Metro at the village pump and that a message was written on the talk page. Georgia guy 19:18, 8 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

The poll had only 4 votes up to that moment. However, I put it on to make sure other Wikipedians are aware of the edit war. Georgia guy 19:47, 8 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

* L does not stand for "light rail" but, somewhat confusingly, for "Light Metro" — metro lines that are elevated and do not need expensive tunelling (therefore being financially "light"). However, they use the same gauge and rolling stock as "normal" metro lines.
1 – 4 central stations of the Filyovskaya Line – Komintern, Arbatskaya, Smolenskaya and Kievskaya – were originally opened in 1935/37, when they were a branch of Sokolnicheskaya Line. Between 1938 and 1953, they were part of Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya Line. The stations were closed between 1953 and 1958 and then reopened as part of the (new) Filyovskaya Line.
2 – All 3 stations of the Kakhovskaya Line were built in 1969; they were an integral part of the Zamoskovoretskaya Line until 1983, becoming a branch of it until 1995. In 1995, they were split off from the Zamoskovoretskaya Line and used to form the Kakhovskaya Line.

HTML comment in Moscow Metro edit

I see you wrote at Moscow Metro an HTML comment asking Elk to stop. Please note that HTML comments are supposed to be worded for the general editor, not for an individual. Georgia guy 22:17, 14 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

It's just that me (at least) running out of ways to talk to an individual who is so obviously ignoring the general. But ur right of course — discussion should be kept to the talk page, even if ignored by an individual ;)--Sascha. 22:29, 14 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Three-Revert Rule edit

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly, as you are doing in Moscow Metro. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert a single page more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. -- joturner 00:10, 15 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Federation Tower edit

You left this comment on the Federation Tower page: "rv that's the idea"
What's the idea? --XAKxRUSx 01:07, 6 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

The idea is to illustrate construction progress, i.e. new pics should be added and not old ones removed. (Also note that it is customary to sign your posts) --Sascha. 09:32, 3 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
My fault, I forgot to put the "~". >_< Yes, new, current pics should be added, and the old ones should be removed. But right now, the most recent one is from September... which isn't current.--XAKxRUSx 01:07, 6 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
New pics could (and should) be added when someone makes them, that's for sure, but the old ones should stay too to illustrate the progress of an ongoing construction. When the building is "open for business" the photos could be parked in some "Construction history" article but as for now they don't seem out of place to me. --Sascha. 06:06, 6 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
