[edit] Multiple File deletion

Can user 194.83.29.3 please explain himself for removing three sections from the article? Kuban kazak 11:36, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Station Templates

Here they are:

[edit] Hey! What About Line #5?!

They have now put in a fifth line around 2001, but I don't know the name. If anyone finds out, please edit the article and put in the line.--Mac Simms 18:05, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

PS: The color of the line is purple.

Wrong, the line will not open as a separate line until 2008, have a look on the line 4s future plans section. What is true is that currentely a section of it exists as part of line 4 and in 2008 the line will separate into two lines, with new stations being put in at the point of their separation: Here this schematic shows it perfectly:http://www.podzemka.info/unreal/21/.
Here are two animations of history and future:

PS its colour not color. :)

[edit] Color of fourth line

How is the fourth of these lines to be described, as the Orange Line or the Yellow Line?? The color looks yellow-orange based on how I see it. Georgia guy 22:02, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Officially the colour is orange http://www.podzemka.info/real/1/ -- Kuban kazak 22:28, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Color of fifth line

The color is pink according to the table in the article, but purple in the above discussion. Which is correct according to the actual metro map?? Georgia guy 20:51, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Does that really matter? Considering that it has yet to open. I copied the colour from Moscow's Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya Line Template. That is the only other violet coloured line in the ex-USSR Metros. --Kuban kazak 21:07, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
Is it going to be at least 10 years before it opens?? And, this is a talk page, and I don't see any reason for there to be a rule about American vs. Canadian spellings on talk pages, unlike on articles, where rules are expected. Georgia guy 21:25, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
Read article on line four, and my spelling is British not Canadian. --Kuban kazak 21:28, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Color of sixth line

It says in this article that a sixth line is planned. What is its color most likely going to be?? Please write this answer here:

1=red 2=blue 3=green 4=orange 5=violet 6=?

(I think yellow is most likely. Anyone disagree??) Georgia guy 19:36, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

The line is not yet to open in anytime soon so who knows. Most likely it would be the semi-ring line which I expect should be dark blue/purple [1]. As already there is a full single station ready for it. (Sportivnaya)
Anyway does it really matter...that at least 1.5 decades away so no need to hurry with the colours.--Kuban Cossack 15:59, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
Well, the external link mentioned above says Line #6 will be lime, #7 will be dark blue, and #8 yellow, according to the map I saw. Georgia guy 23:21, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Well, as far as wiki is concerned that is nothing but hypothesis. Anyway it is not really that important is it? --Kuban Cossack 00:10, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The deepest or "one of the deepest" ?

ru.wiki claims it is the "deepest".
