@Bouzinac: I would say all of the subclass statements I removed, also this one https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q5503&diff=1446689653&oldid=1446648189 are a misunderstanding of what a subclass is. To make it simpler, let's assume this item would be called "rail transit" instead of "rapid transit", then "urban rail transit" would be a subclass of "rail transit", but not the other way around like the statement I removed! The description of this item sais "generally used in urban areas" which means there are instances of "rapid transit" which are not instances of "urban transit", therefore it is not a subclass.--Debenben (talk) 18:57, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
