Sourcing and Detail Issues

I've noticed there's extensive parts of this article that seem lacking in references and/or are unnecessarily detailed. Do we need to know, for example, who exactly ran the first test train, what the PA systems announce at certain stations, or what the exact reasoning for the second failed proposal for the metro was (WP:Overquote)? The whole Architecture section seems almost entirely unsourced, not to mention it seems written in a promotional tone.

I've done some cursory searching for anything to back up some of these and I can't find anything. If anyone's got better sources for some of these, please let me know; I'm not an expert on this topic and don't know Ukrainian. Otherwise, I might get around to cutting down some of these sections if I got time.

Also I'm relatively inexperienced, much obliged if y'all have any other suggestions. Cheers. Desan 五 | Talk 04:22, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
