Talk:Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

hey people i would like to add some pics in the article and since it would violate the copyright laws if i copy and paste another pic to this article, what do u guys say if i draw one and then scan it? --35ednalung

From the lecturer, this is OK. Go ahead please. --35patchau

Good idea, but i think it'll be a tough work for you. -- 36noelchan

Good suggestion, i think there is at least a picture about the proposed bridge location. So you are thinking about drawing a rough map including Hong Kong, Macau, Zhuhai? -- 39kschan

Hi all, I have drawn one and scan it as picture shown in main page, any comments are welcome, and I can use the mother copy to make changes. -- 39kschan

Hello. Before I do anything big on the page, I just want to ask some questions. 1. Some of the content is irrelevant to our topic. I'm feeling that the information hasn't been precise enough. Delete some topics (eg talking about ferry routes when it isn't directly responsible for contributing)? 2. There are a lot of red links (ie words that doesn't exist yet). Some of them are too technical; some of them are too commonplace to be linked (eg, what, freight? I'm sure everybody knows what that means/is)

Just my 2 cents for today. --37blee

yeah i agree with 37blee, there are some irrelevant info but all is good we can each do some edition and it should be fine. ok what about the pictures then? i've already drawn one..just need to scan it...but which pic to use since 39kschan has already drawn one. -- 35ednalung

actually it doesn't matter...the one of kschan is sort of like a map...but mine is the actual bridge....what it may look like...so yeah no worries

Yes you guys are right. But I would like to know what information is missing and should be included in our page? So far I don't have much idea on what to be added on the page ... recently i simply make some minor amendments instead, a bit frustrated ... -- 36noelchan

I believe that most of the information that we need others to know are pretty much covered. What we want to do now is to proofread the document. Also, if we can find any images to spice up the page, that would be excellent. Good work people --37blee

i have a suggestion, could we delete the impacts behind each category under 'impacts and influences'? cuz i think it's very repetitive...and would be better if we just have economic, scio-economic, environmental..blah blah..well that's what i think any comments? --35ednalung

Please do. I'm currently in the process of proofreading the article...I have deleted several repetitive links and content in the past. Also please double-check what you have written for mistakes. --37blee

Dear all, do you think it is better to include Chinese terms in the article? I guess that you may think that terms in Chinese are included in the diagram, but I think it is clearer to include them in the article. Well, I've just checked the history that Oliveir deleted the terms. --35patchau

Which Chinese terms? where? --37blee

hey people, we got a problem here...u know the four crossing points under background where's the fourth one? it's not there --35ednalung

The 4th one is Lo Wu? It is in a new paragraph which does not under 4th bulletin points. --39kschan

I have added the 4th points for standardization. --39kschan

Chinese names of Hong Kong, Zhuhai, Macau, etc. I added them, but Oliveir deleted them.--35patchau

See Wikipedia:Manual of Style for China-related articles for the reason why I have deleted some of the Chinese terms. olivier 11:25, Mar 1, 2004 (UTC)

hey people anyone know how to delete a pic? --35ednalung

to remove the sentence that locating the picture, i.e. .... Image:XXXX.jpg ..... -- 39kschan

[edit] A few questions

Under "Background":

• The number of passengers can reach up to 400,000 during peak hours...

Is it 400,000 per hour?

• Continuous expansion works have been done at these three crossings to meet the increasing demand for passenger handling capacity.

Which three is it referring to? I'm guessing Man Kam To, Lok Ma Chau and Lo Wu, but it'd be better if they were specifically referred to in the article.

• Railway to the Lo Wu crossing receives much traffic from the towns.

Is it talking about the towns within Hong Kong?
