People Mover?[edit]
There's some usage of the word people mover in this article that doesn't feel right. (linguistically). Should they be changed to something like transport or train? Was this a rather incorrect translation? Or is this one of them japanese terms? Feureau 13:46, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
- According to people mover, the term originated in the U.S. "People mover" is the usual term used for these automated light rails. —ptk✰fgs 15:11, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
Decrease in population[edit]
re: "However, in 1978, the town's size was cut down to 47,000 people..." and "In 1984, the town was again downsized to 40,000 people"
This implies that the population's decrease was a result of some sort of order or instruction from above, as opposed to natural migration. Is this the case? Whatever the case, there is something lost in (cultural and/or linguistic) translation. --RealGrouchy 21:42, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
