Talk:Smith–Ninth Streets station

message: The reference says that the station is the highest in the world. The article says that it isn't. Maybe, it's worth to delete the reference (or add a comment). Vcohen (talk) 18:53, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I have two concerns with the use of "subway" in the "highest subway station in the world" claim:
* "Subway" is a very American word; a reader outside of North America might not understand this. In the UK, as I'm sure you know, a "subway" is a tunnel underneath a busy street that allows pedestrians to cross without inconveniencing traffic. So the concept of "subway station" is meaningless in that context.
* "Subway" implies that it's underground, which of course it's not here.
So maybe we could call it the "highest elevated rail mass-transit station in the world" and it would be clearer to everyone?
Also, I put a  tag on the footnote saying that it is not the highest above sea level. Well, what is? We should explain this here and give sources. Daniel Case (talk) 03:36, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed the unsourced claim. I think it would be fine to replace "subway" with "rapid transit", because rapid transit is the same thing and shorter. epicgenius (talk) 18:02, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

message: The photos that are used as an example of the before renovation and after renovation are taken at different parts of the station. They do not accurately represent a before/after of the same location in the station.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:2000:800E:AC00:7DDB:D18C:F8A1:6D5 (talk) 14:19, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
