Interchanges

[edit]

@Useddenim and Epicgenius: Should interchanges such as N/R/W at Jay Street–MetroTech be shown? Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}

@Jc86035: In this instance, no. The service diagrams only show connections/interchanges that a train could take, not passengers. Useddenim (talk) 13:07, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Jc86035: No. We are just showing cross-platform interchanges (like Useddenim said), as well as stations where the two levels are part of the same line. I'm thinking of adding transfers later, similar to what one would see on a FIND display or strip map. epicgenius (talk) 14:19, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Useddenim: Also, why the use of   (lACC) instead of   (lvACC) etc.? It should be clear enough from the colour of the lines whether the part of the station is served by the F. Using the circular lACC doesn't make sense when the ACC shape doesn't have to be circular. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}

@Jc86035: Because that's the way Epicgenius originally created the diagram, and personally, I prefer the narrower circle that doesn't obliterate the bi-colored station symbol the way the wider oval does. Useddenim (talk) 11:43, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Useddenim and Epicgenius: Doesn't doing this make the accessibility status of Coney Island–Stillwell Avenue ambiguous, since the circle is only over the middle two tracks? Jc86035 (talk) 10:46, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think so. When we want to show partial accessability, we do something like . Useddenim (talk) 10:54, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Useddenim: Disregarding that the station icon currently looks a bit messy, it could still be interpreted as meaning that. Jc86035 (talk) 15:09, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
