Copy edit - June 2008

[edit]

I improved the language and structure as far as possible. Further improvements need to be made by experts (or someone who has read the reference given) to portions that are unclear to the average reader. For example, which mountain is referred to in the phrase "Schauinsland Aerial Tramway supplied auxiliary military hospitals on the mountain and in 1987 the ropeway was closed for refurbishment"? -Samuel Tan (talk) 16:25, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, of course the Schauinsland mountain :-) I adjusted some possible faults to the original German wiki and guess the markers could be taken away now. There is something historcal, that this was planned as a train track, but I cannot find the refernce at the moment, so I don't write ist, it's even not mentioned in the German wiki. But I know it since I'm living beside this "monster". Alabay (talk) 13:10, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've got an English language reference to this somewhere, in a book on the Freiburg trams. Not to hand at the moment, but I will dig it out and add it. -- Starbois (talk) 11:22, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've done this, and added more history -- Starbois (talk) 11:11, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Great! Really good. Here are some more references. Do you speak german? I still haven't found the short-time thought plan to realize a RAILway up this direction. I know I'd read this somewhere, but ... maybe one day I'll find it. <http://www.bergwelt-schauinsland.de/ueber_uns/geschichte.html?lang=>, <http://www.badische-zeitung.de/freiburg/schauinslandbahn-wird-80-und-bleibt-ein-verlustgeschaeft> and <http://www.seilbahngeschichte.de/schauinsland.htm> for now. --Alabay (talk) 14:35, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Article title

[edit]

I'm a bit concerned about the article title (Schauinsland Aerial Tramway).

  1. The English language reference I have (see above) uses the German name (Schauinslandbahn). Most, if not all, of the exact hits on Google for 'Schauinsland Aerial Tramway' look as if they are derived from this article.
  2. From the description of the technology used, I'm not convinced this line meets the definition of an aerial tramway in WP article Aerial tramway. It sounds more like a gondola lift to me.

Should we rename, to the technology neutral and apparantly acceptable in English, Schauinslandbahn?. -- Starbois (talk) 11:35, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

On consideration, I answered my own question. So I have renamed. -- Starbois (talk) 15:52, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think, that was not a bad idea. Maybe there can be an additional forwarding or a parenthesis to explain the ...bahn in English? But sure, Schauinslandbahn is a proper name. --Alabay (talk) 14:37, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
