DYK

[edit]

I belive that we should list it for a DYK nomination. IMO, the major points in the nomination are:

  • that it is the second (correct me if I'm wrong) (or one of the first) to have lift access for passengers with physical disability,
  • and that it is a side-platform (the second in the system after Dnipro).
    • or that it is the second in FSU to be a side-platform pillar-bi span.
  • also, that it is one of the newest stations to be added to the system

Any better suggestions? —dima /sb.tk/ 02:11, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

    1. Well along with Borispolskaya (which opened prior) both have disabled access.
    2. Yes, and yes, along with the curved platform
    3. The newest!

Here are more, first in FSU to be opened for a public holiday, but not for revolution/victory/new year, but in honour of 8th March - Women's day. --Kuban Cossack 10:53, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How about...:

-Or-

Here is something

Yes, that is another good possibility. I say, let's use it for the nomination, and put it up soon, as there is little time left for DYK. OK? —dima /sb.tk/ 00:22, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kiev floods

[edit]

Should we add the info that the station was flooded during heavy rainfall during this week? I saw it somewhere...don't know where it is right now. Or is it to small of a fact to mention? —dima /sb.tk/ 03:21, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Let's stick with the DYK material so far, if fail for mainpage, go for Portal:Trains. --Kuban Cossack 10:42, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I am putting it for DYK right now. —dima /sb.tk/ 21:46, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Imaged and shortened by removing some excessive clutter. --Kuban Cossack 01:48, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I have translated the poem, think of ways to make it more poetic? Also just have another runthrough of the grammar. -Kuban Cossack 01:17, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
To make it more poetic, I've added some words. How bout this??:


It believes and disbelieves:
Where reeds have ripened now,
The doors of "Vyrlytsia" have opened,
As a song out of a soul.
Here, the will of metro-builders
Is set in the concrete.
He believed - plans will come true-
Such is the Metro law!!!

Here is my second attempt:

It believes and disbelieves:
Where reeds have ripened now,
The doors of "Vyrlytsia" opened,
As sung out of a soul.
Here, the will of metro-builders
Is set in the concrete.
For they believed - plans will come true-
And such is Metro law!!!

Better ask others as well --Kuban Cossack 01:39, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also good...—dima /sb.tk/ 02:59, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

image size

[edit]
Is this wrong enough?

The reason I reduced the image size is that on a 800x600 screen, the layout is terrible. With the original version of the template, theimages were pushed below it and caused all sorts of overlapping problems. With my reduced version, while the image is not pushed down anymore, there is no visible text when you load the page, which is not much more helpful. Circeus 16:29, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


No, everything is alright.
My advice, make your screen resolution standard 1024x768, and change your browser to the normal firefox. --Kuban Cossack 17:00, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
My point was made specifically for 800x600 screen resolution. I myself use a 1024 screen, but we cannot, and certainly shouldn't expect that just because an article looks good in 1024, it will in 800, and we certainly will not expect that the readers will change their resolution to accomodate the layout. it is our layout that must accomodate the users' choices. This is basic accessibility. Circeus 17:25, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
However we do know that most of the internet users are configured for 1024x768 screens, with Mozilla Firefox browser (just compare the appearance of the template). I think that the WP guideline says something about accessability and which version is the best to use. (Can't you compress the screen?) --Kuban Cossack 18:04, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
However even the most optimistic estimates will tell you that only 10% of all internet users actually use FF. lensovet 02:20, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
