Talk:Trams in Adelaide

message: I have just been reading through the article and I must say congratulations on such a great article. 
There is only one subjection I can make to your article and that is to your introduction / lead section.  
I believe there is to many small detail about the system like when all the different systems where opened and closed.  The reason I say this is because i was interested in syncing your article to the Trams in Australasia article.  I feel it would be better if you left out some of the smaller details and or separate the smaller details from the first paragraph so both sections can be synced.

replies: text: Thanks - unfortunately the lead was written in between some programming tasks late last night and I decided to post it before I was happy. I'll see what I can do over the next few days so that the lead is a good summary for the Trams in Australasia article and for this one - Peripitus (Talk) 08:45, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Although I started the article Municipal Tramways Trust to detail the history of the MTT it has been largely superceded by the article Trams in Adelaide. What opinion do people have regarding a merger with the Trams in Adelaide article? Ozdaren 11:05, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Not really in favour of this. Partially this article is probably long enough already but mostly as the MTT article, when it's fully written, should cover much more than trams. I can see a sections on the personel, staffing practices, regulations (like one where women were fined 50 shillings for having unsafe hatpins), kensington gardens, their contribution to the River Torrens flood prevention schemes, petrol buses, and the 17 years they spent as mostly just a bus company. While researching this article I found lots of material and hope, in the fullness of time, to expand the MTT article likewise. - Peripitus (Talk) 12:00, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

text: I think that it should be merged. I don't really think the Municipal Tramways Trust article is really that notable anyway OneofLittleHarmony (talk) 05:00, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

message: In June the following text was added
Trams in Adelaide a currently undergoing a renaissance, with the relaying of the Glenelg Line, Modernised Trams and extension of the City section. This has seen a revitalisation of the Tram service with many morning services now operating at capacity.
A revitalisation of the City Precinct is now evident with the Casino and Rundle Mall Stations now in use throughout the night on weekends, bringing life back to these otherwise unused parts of the city.
A transformation of Glenelg can also be seen with a large increase in the tourist traffic to Glenelg. Although this has inevitably resulted in higher numbers of public disturbances, [especially due to the effective linking of Glenelg and notorious nightspot Hindley St], the response from traders in Glenelg has been largely positive.
Further transformation has been proposed by the SA State Government with their 2008 budget with new Tram lines through the western districts of the city, coupled with electrification of the heavy rail services for dual use networks [i.e. train/tram lines]. This will result in the linking of the AAMI, Hindmarsh sporting stadiums, along with the Entertainment Centre concert complex.
I'm removed it from the article and moved it here as
*The detail mostly belongs in the Glenelg Tram article
*Words like "revitalisation" "Modernised" etc. read like a press release rather and an encyclopedic article
*There is no referred source

message: The govt of SA recently announced plans for the next few years and they include proposed adjustments for the tram networks. Not sure if it should be mentioned here in the article. 
Here is a link to the plan: http://dpti.sa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0020/117551/A_Sharper_Focus_on_Inner_Adelaide.pdf By no means is this exhaustive and if you do a search on this website, you would be able to find a couple of other detailed brochures too.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.26.123.208 (talk) 08:19, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

message: I've been looking through current images to see whether the logo is at all associated with Adelaide's trams -- I don't live in Adelaide any more [weep] and can't check other than online. Tentatively I conclude it is simply a generic one that has no connection.  Albeit the logo looks good -- better than the one representing trams in Adelaide Metro graphics -- if it is generic I think it should be deleted. I'm reluctant to do it myself without some confirmation. DAHall (talk) 19:09, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi  The logos that features in the infoboxes of articles on the Adelaide tram, train and bus services are pulled directly from the Adelaide Metro website and the service timetables, as is noted on each images' file page. These logos are also found on timetables and other related media posted at stations and stops, in addition to Adelaide Metro service centres. I hope this answers your question. – Nick Mitchell 98 talk 08:09, 25 March 2018 (UTC)
