Austro-Bavarian

[edit]

Is the Austro-Bavarian Wean really needed. Noone here would ever refer to the city as that. It´s just pointless information that clutters up the start. Surely it would be better placed somewhere else in the article? EulersNumberIsGreat (talk) 18:33, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

noone in Vienna would refer to the city as "Wean" in Austro-Bavarian? Are you possibly German or so? 212.183.53.74 (talk) 06:54, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I live here, the vast vast majority of people say "Wien". EulersNumberIsGreat (talk) 16:54, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Photo Collage

[edit]

Hi, are you serious that this photo:

is representative for Vienna as first photo? There is in fact nothing to see on it. Tibesti1 (talk) 17:32, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The reason that I changed the original one is because:
1, the (first) picture was too gloomy,
2, the resolution was not high,
3, as the configuration of such {{multiple-images}} is 1/3/3, the first one should be longer enough to avoid making the infobox too redundant
Also, it did show the downtown Vienna, Belvedere, and St. Stephen's Cathedral on the left.
Moreover, when you put your mouse on the link of Vienna in another article, it is not the first picture to appear, due to its length.
Finally, if you think it's not well-rounded enough, we can try this one?
At least I think we should not keep the original one. Vitsuha (talk) 17:50, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No on that one, the typical Vienna is not visible either. I know that the first photo sometimes doesn't appear as preview, however, it remains the first photo of the photo collage, and i got the impression that you chose the new one just because you couldn't find a better one. The original first photo seems to be the only existing photo that shows at least to some point the old silhouette of Vienna, which should include the cathedral. And anyway i don't find it good of you to just alter my photo collage which was stable since December. Tibesti1 (talk) 18:02, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would say it depends on every person's opinion, I do think the photo collage you made previous contains too many photos. I think the one for Los_Angeles is just enough. But if you insist you can just revert my edit and I'm fine with it. Vitsuha (talk) 18:12, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think so cause the collage doesn't really represent LA in its abundance, but i understand that some people think so. I think it depends on the beauty of the photos and in my collage practically every photo was beautiful. At Miami there are even 12 photos. I don't know if you are really interested in Vienna, but perhaps you find a long photo showing the old skyline of the city, i didn't like the first photo very much either, but couldn't find a better one. Greetings. Tibesti1 (talk) 18:22, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The original didn't meet basic quality criteria. I just changed and rearranged the images to ensure they're somehow representative, especially the first one which now provides an partial areal view that is useful for depicting a city. I think that Belvedere isn't that irrelevant as well, which is why I made it appear a little larger and removed one of the two pictures depicting Hofburg. –Tobias (talk) 07:36, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Number of stations of the ‘U-Bahn’

[edit]

EulersNumberIsGreat changed the number of stations with “Officially, 109 stations are given because each stop on each line is counted as a station. Actually there are only 98 stations.” in the Edit Summary. While correct (see the network map), we have to follow WP:NOR and adhere to the 109 given in the reference. What we can possibly do is to distinguish between stops and stations together with an explanation. Currently these stations are serving multiple lines: Karlsplatz (U1–U4; later this year also U2), Landstraße / Wien Mitte (U3–U4), Längenfeldgasse (U4–U6), Praterstern (U1–U2), Schottenring (U2–U4), Schwedenplatz (U1–U4), Spittelau (U4–U6), Stephansplatz (U1–U3), Westbahnhof (U3–U6). The table in this section requires an adaption as well. Alfie↑↓© 10:44, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
