I dont really know where else i should put this. But here you can discuss about things on the wiki.

To start off:I would like to change the following on stationpages if everyone agrees.

(station) is a station in lines (lines) in (map) to (station) is a station on lines (lines) in (map) because the current way it just makes my grammerbells ring. It just doesnt sound right.

What do you think? Let me know

What I personally would like to see different is (map) being replaced with (city), as "Ziekenhuis is a station in line D in Simvliet." is incorrect as it's located in Hageningen not Simvliet.

I can work on that if you like Michiel!

And also get rid of (station) is a station in (line).

Edit:I came up with: (station) is a station on (lines) in (city) on the map (map)(optionally:year that map takes place)

That is the correct wording, indeed, but we should mention somehow the map

Mentioning maps on station pages is just asking for extra work if at some point maps are updated to introduce new variations, get merged or split or new cities are added. It is also entirely possible that with beta 4 a different concept of maps will be used. For now there can be pages about each map, but they should be linked from a generic Simvliet page which is about the city, not the map.

<Station> is a station of the <map> metro and it’s located in <city>. It serves lines <line1> and <line2>.
