Redundant detailed diagram

Is there really a need for a detailed diagram? OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 22:16, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Worth of showing double-track segments

I'm starting to have doubts about whether or not to show the double-tracked segments. I added the other two double-track segments for consistency with the double-track segment south of South Keys. Maybe it's my inexperience at being able to mesh the double track icons well with the others, but I can't really get it to look nice on the segment between Bayview and south of Highway 417. I'm honestly starting to feel this level of detail might be starting to be a bit too granular for the diagram especially since a) the diagram is mainly to depict the line's stations and major junctions and crossings, b) it's a short urban rail line, not a major regional/inter-city line, and 3) I think it's not really consistent with both the Confederation Line template and how the Confederation Line is depicted here, since the Confederation Line is entirely double-tracked. I think it'd just be better to remove them altogether to have one streamlined template in line with the Confederation Line template instead of a consistently detailed, yet absurdly overly complicated one. I think this was a holdover feature when this was the "detailed" diagram while also having a very simple one. I think having a singular diagram with the perfect blend of simplicity and detail works perfectly in this scenario. Unless anyone feels differently and wants to bring back the double-tracked segments, I'll just go ahead and remove them. It's not really a significant feature/detail anyhow in my view.

If there is only going to be a single diagram, it needs to be far simpler. The current iteration is way too messy, especially in the north where there are seven(!) rows beyond the terminal station. BLAIXX 00:31, 16 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
