Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/October 16, 2005

message: "Indian Railways is the state-owned railway company of India having a complete monopoly over the country's rail transport. It has one of the largest and busiest rail networks in the world, transporting over 5 billion passengers and over 350 million tonnes of freight annually." is not gramatically correct.  Also, the intro later uses "IR" without defining it.  That's not good practice, no matter how obvious the abbreviation is.
I can't think of a perfect way to say it quickly, but
"Indian Railways is the state-owned railway company of India; it has a complete monopoly over the country's rail transport. Indian Railways (IR) has one of the largest and busiest rail networks in the world, transporting over 5 billion passengers and over 350 million tonnes of freight annually."

message: Jelle Taeke de Boer (1908-1970) was een controversieel Nederlands kunstverzamelaar die bijna zijn gehele werkzame leven besteedde aan het verzamelen van niet eerder ontdekte meesterwerken van bekende impressionisten.
Alhoewel hij voornamelijk werken kocht die hij toedichtte aan Vincent van Gogh, zocht hij ook naar werken van andere beroemde meesters als Manet, Monet, Paul Cézanne, Renoir en Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Ook wist hij de hand te leggen op tekeningen en schilderijen van ‘mindere Goden’ als van Israels, Koekoek, Vlamink, en Luns (de vader van oud Minister Jospeh Luns) en 9 stukken van de Amerikaanse impressionist Castle Keyth maar werd in de Nederlandse kunstkringen niet serieus genomen.
De Jelle de Boer collectie heeft op een bepaald moment mogelijk 1000 werken bevat. Onder het mom van vermeende falsificaties werd op 14 augustus 1967 door de Zwitserse Justitie een deel van de collectie van Jelle de Boer in beslag genomen in de galerie van Anton Acherman te Luzerne. Volgens De Boer bevatte de geëxposeerde collectie meer dan honderd onbekende meesterwerken van impressionisten als Vincent van Gogh en tijdgenoten.
Een deel werd korte tijd daarna vrijgegeven maar 21 werken bleven 35 jaar lang achter slot en grendel in het Politiemuseum van Luzerne” en zijn in 2002 vrijgegeven. Na jarenlang touwtrekken en vele rechtszaken ging de Zwitserse justitie eindelijk overstag en werden de laatste 21 werken op 29 juni 2002 officieel overhandigd aan ‘Stichting Jelle de Boer’ die de collectie nu onder haar hoede heeft voor nader onderzoek. - --rpd (talk) 21:12, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Interstate 635 (Texas)

message: So at the High Five Interchange, the 635 has 14 regular highway lanes (10 "normal" and 4 express lanes), which is a lot but not extraordinary for a large suburban metro.But then the 75 and 635 have six lane frontage roads, all four directions (NSWE) having three through lanes. So counting the frontage lanes, since they are integral to Texas highway design, the 635 is a 20-lane freeway. That's record pushing for the US at least. LA is littered with freeways, but they are not quite that wide, up to 14 or 16 lanes, but all freeway no frontage counted. NYC and older metros have worse congestion and stats that would call for 20 lanes plus, but they are more urban and would have to use a vertically raised tarmac over the existing ones, which is often alluded to but never really done. South Florida/Miami area, the "forgotten metro" in terms of recognition of size and growth, is also pushing the boundaries of all their highways, with several up to 12 lanes and a max of 14 if counted dubiously, but with new express lane and Turnpike widening currently underway, could see a push to 16 or more. DFW and Houston have awful traffic and long commutes. They are worse than Miami as far as being physically larger, more spread out and suburban metros, but are actually no bigger in terms of population (all three are about six million). That may be a bit surprising, almost anybody would say DFW and Houston are "much larger" than Miami. Can't think of any other place that would have more than a 12-lane highway.
