Barcelona Metro 9000 Series
edit- ... that the Barcelona Metro 9000 Series (pictured) runs on three Spanish-speaking rapid transit systems?

What's been checked? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:19, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
There seem to be some dead links in the article that have cropped up since they were accessed in December, at least from where I am in the US. I think all the rest of the refs check out, reliability-wise, and my Spanish seems to be good enough to confirm the citations, including the cited hook. However, the proposed hook seems a bit wishy-washy. What about "that the Barcelona Metro 9000 Series train is used in three Spanish-speaking rapid transit systems"? It feels weird to hide the name of the train in question like that. Axem Titanium (talk) 23:02, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
The modification is acceptable and the El Periódico de Catalunya link has been replaced. For the TMB link, the site seems to be under update (unlike an outright 404) but I have contingency plan if they don't restore it within 7 days. --Marianian(talk) 20:01, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
- Awesome. With that, I feel comfortable supporting.
