# Talk:Sound Transit

As of the timestamp on my signature, Sound Transit's website [1] is sending people to a Network Solutions "parking page".  I have a screen capture of that on my blog [2] along with comments from fellow bloggers.  Any ideas as to what's happening?  I don't want to remove any ST links from this article since I think this problem is only temporary in nature. --RaggieSoft (talk) 01:59, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

Here's a good reference; pages 119 and 20

### Results from public records request
I got this info back from ST on a public records request, but it doesn't seem to jive with any other data.  Anybody able to confirm any of the changes?

This article currently uses infobox government agency, with the rationale that the public transit infobox should be used only on the subpages (Link light rail, Sounder commuter rail, Sound Transit Express). I disagree, and am wondering where other editors stand. Articles about other public transit authorities throughout the US tend to use infobox public transit on the main page, including MTA (New York), MBTA (Boston), TriMet (Portland), Metro (Los Angeles), etc. Infobox public transit on the main page can include pertinent info such as system-wide ridership and a concise list of all the transit modes operated under the agency's jurisdiction.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dweymouth (talk • contribs) 22:25, 2 May 2017 (UTC) 

@Dweymouth: I was going off WMATA, the only regional transit agency to reach GA status on the English Wikipedia. Like Sound Transit, it operates on a multi-jurisdictional compact and functions as an independent entity moreso than the likes of MTA, MBTA and LA Metro. SounderBruce 23:32, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

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 Sound Transit'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.

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⚡ 12:23, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

I am currently translating this page to Chinese. As I am translating, I found out that summary of Sound Transit 3 appear in both History and Expansion. My suggestion is to remove the Sound Transit 3 part in Extension since summary of Sound Transit 3 in History section is has more information. If no one disagree, I will start combine the two section to one under History section. Please feel free to leave a comment if you think this is unnecessary and if possible, provide a reason. Thanks!

Please don't try and haphazardly merge anything. Having some repetition is fine if the sections are differentiated enough. The article will undergo a fairly major restructuring soon, as I am preparing to bring it up to GA standards. SounderBruce 07:11, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
OK, I will then stop the current translation and wait for the revised version. Thanks! VulpesVulpes825 08:01, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

Sound Transit announced they were discontinuing the use of the term Red-Line in reference to the current Link Light Rail line, citing concerns over the term's association with the historical discriminatory housing practice. Suggest the section be edited accordingly.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chipoliwog (talk • contribs) 23:09, 18 November 2019 (UTC) 

Until a new name is announced, it should be left unchanged. The corresponding article at Red Line (Sound Transit) has been updated and will be moved when the time comes. There are also a lot of underlying templates that need to be updated (again), so it should be done with care. SounderBruce 23:30, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
