Delhi Metro
editHi. I have switched citations pertaining to Annual Reports (which were not archived) to the new website of DMRC. There are still lots of citations in the article (Intro and the first five sections of the article) that link to the old website. I think all links of old website that are not archived should be switched to the new website, since the old website can become inaccessible at any point in the future. Let me know your thoughts.

- Hello Dhruv Edits. I agree with your opinion. The links that point to the old website now should be shifted to the new site, which is in fact quite nicely designed and contains a lot more information on the stations of Delhi Metro, which we can probably incorporate into the relevant pages. Do you have some kind of plan to do the edits? Kool Nerd 123 (talk) 16:49, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Kool Nerd 123. I have started to make changes to citations in infobox and intro section. We have to basically make sure every citation from "delhimetrorail.com" has a valid page on the new website. If a citation from old website is not available on new website, then a reference has to be added from a secondary source, like news websites. Dhruv edits (talk) 07:35, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Kool Nerd 123. Could you find references in new website for citations in which you have added "old" and make necessary edits. Try to find the same page on the new website or in some news article. Dhruv edits (talk) 07:52, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Dhruv edits I will try to find the same page on the new website for all the citations. If not, I will search for references from secondary sources. Else, the link to the old website remains the main source. Is that okay? Kool Nerd 123 (talk) 14:53, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

- @Kool Nerd 123 Yes. I doubt we will be able to find external sources for every citation with old website. The best we can do is find as many refs of new website/secondary sources as we can, the rest can have old website as references. Dhruv edits (talk) 17:12, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Dhruv edits Ok then. I will start doing the required tasks. Kool Nerd 123 (talk) 19:08, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
