Talk:Minsk Metro

message: The problem, as I see it, can be safely reducted (broken down) to the following:
* Language version of the name of the primary article
** My suggestion: National language, with additional redirect to it, translit'ed from Russian.
* Wikilinks in templates and main article
** I didn't quite understand your paragraph on this, do you mean the articles' texts will have links with "national" addressing and "Russian" informative part, like [Radyanskoi Armii|Sovetskoi Armii]?
* Maps
** Your (?) Kharkiv Metro map shows quite an amount of work, but strikes me as somewhat diverting with how you describe it. Currently, coloured Ukrainian text is smaller in points and in weight, and when put against the black background, blue and green are significantly less legible than white and taller and bolder Russian text. As one of the options, I'd suggest:
*** When on the black background, do both texts in white, equal size, one over another, lower one indented slightly to the right, with markers of language (coloured geometricals? 2-3 letters abbreviations of language?) preceding the texts.
** Remark of the more general nature: putting line transfers (quite an important feature!) into the common legend doesn't look the happiest solution to me. At the very least, they've got to get the separate legend for them or their names should be attached to them in callouts. Additionally, for such scheme a good idea would be to put thin rings of neutral colour around the line junctions (I think I've seen such feature on Moscow and Minsk real-life schemes).

message: I suggest this article should use the same names passengers in Minsk see and hear - please see the map on the Metro's official website, http://metropoliten.by/. The same map is in every carriage and at every station. These names are announced: Next station - Plošča Pieramohi. Also Google maps, e.g. https://goo.gl/maps/MaadHBaqchJSaf2u8
This translit standard has been in use for a few years now. It is also used on the Belarusian Railway website - using anything else would only confuse Wikipedia users.
