[edit] SPUI

Schematic of a freeway-under SPUI in a country where traffic drives on the right. Traffic entering the freeway is in red. Traffic exiting the freeway is in green. Through traffic is in gray. All traffic motion of the same color can proceed simultaneously.

Something different for FPC—a diagram. I drew this diagram and I think it clearly and simply explains how this unusual type of interchange works.

  • Clear, large and informative. Very good work indeed. Raven4x4x 13:07, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
  • Well done, pefectly represents a SPUI. Phoenix2 16:11, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

  • Interesting.—Encephalon | ζ  02:29:43, 2005-08-30 (UTC)
  • Looks nice, informative. Ask SPUI what he thinks about this. --Titoxd 22:45, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

  • Comment. It's both attractive and informative (I hope you'll do a whole family of these diagrams, as it's nice to have things all in the same style). I've a few suggestions which may improve it a tad. There are a few places where the green line is misaligned (where it splits from the eastbound carriageway; where its northeast bound fork splits; where its southwest fork splits). The choice of red and green won't be apparent to someone with RG colourblindness - can I suggest that (in addition to the colours) a different line style be used for both (e.g dotted for red, dashed for green). Can the horizontal vectors be extended into the four shadow area? Also, would it be possible to fill the field of the diagram (everything that isn't road) with a lightish gray; I think that would make the diagram a bit easier to read, particularly when it's thumbnailed. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 10:42, August 31, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment. Some of the lines could be aligned better. Enochlau 03:34, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
  • There's an awful lot of blank space. Maybe crop a bit off the top and bottom? —Cryptic (talk) 06:36, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
  • When the red and green lines cross... does that indicate there is a overhead and the traffic doesn't cross? --AllyUnion (talk) 06:45, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
    • If red-line traffic is moving, green-line traffic is stopped at a traffic light, and vice-versa. Nohat 16:45, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Support, though if the alignment would fixed that'd be even better. :-). James F. (talk) 12:59, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Just to keep with my previous standpoint that I just don't like diagrams and charts as FP's. Featured Diagrams would be better. --ScottyBoy900Q∞ 15:34, 10 September 2005 (UTC)
    • Perhaps you should read What is a faetured picture?. Where it is detailed that diagrams are good FP candidates (note, I wrote those standards and you are welcome to comment on them). I think it is a set precedent that diagrams should be judged on their own merits (as we have many featured diagrams) and not opposed simply for being diagrams.
