Grammar, etc.
Could someone please correct the article so that the English is actually understandable? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.100.218.59 (talk) 13:45, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

as stated by Mayor Luis Castañeda Lossio there will be six more lines added to the metro system. Construction has already started for the second line, Callao-Ate.

public operations
Hello. I cannot understand if Lima metro has run in public operations only a few days since its opening (as my magazine says, which is confirmed by some websites), or if it is running every sarturday and sunday since jan 2004, as this website says. I don't read spanish at all, which is a big issue since most talk about it is in spanish. Thanks in advance for any information about this. Freewol (talk) 13:15, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Opening date?
Since a user has (re, I think)-added the dubious tag to the 2011 date of commencement of operation of the Lima Metro, yet it has not been discussed here yet, I thought I would bring it up. The English wikipedia page indicates its opening as 1990, however provides no reference for this (in fact it appears that Alan Garcia celebrated the opening of the line for political reasons to boost himself in the next election, despite the fact that it was not completed, and by all accounts I have seen, not operating commercially at this time). The Spanish wikipedia states that the inauguration was July 11, 2011, which is clearly confirmed by this reference. Further, this source clearly states that after Garcia's "opening" in 1990 the line was only used to offset transit strikes or for special events (they use the example of a wedding), and states that it was not operated commercially. Two other sites railway gazette and Urbanrail report that it has operated commercially sporadically since 2002, but its full commercial opening only happened in 2011. As such I propose that the opening date be left as 2011, but with a note (much as what we have for the Beijing Metro) saying that the line was opened by Alan Garcia in 1990 operating on special occasions, and since 2002 operating commercially sporadically. Or words to that effect. Thoughts? Ravendrop 01:26, 12 October 2011 (UTC)


 * You are correct in all your affirmations, say it begun in 1990 could be misunderstood, in a massive and constant way it started in 2011 as a trial period and continue working until today already in commercial operations.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jpcea00 (talk • contribs) 21:32, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Move & Required Cleanup
I have just moved this page from "Lima Metro" to be more precise & match with other Wikis, especially the Spanish language one.

There is now a significant amount of cleanup that has to happen, the least of which is changing the name throughout the article. Looking at previous topics above, it seems that for at least 12 years this page has been in desperate need of a thorough cleanup. Let's try to finally get that done in 2023.
