Faizabad Junction railway stationAyodhya Cantt railway stationWP:COMMONNAME, proposed title has almost double result with quotes on google. Yes I am aware of this notice, but I think it applies to only city and district name because airport's page name is changed in past see Ayodhya Airport. JaiHind108 (talk) 17:56, 25 October 2021 (UTC) [reply]

Oppose @JaiHind108, The source never says it is the official name. As of now it is the name proposed by the CM on a tweet. Once Railway board approves and the station board are changed with new painted name, then we can call it official. Not now. A mention of announcement is already added. A rename of article is premature. Venkat TL (talk) 18:17, 25 October 2021 (UTC) [reply]
@Venkat TL I think you haven't read WP:COMMONNAME, it talks about common name, not official name. first of all it is official, yesterday i personally went to somewhere i saw trains for Ayodhya cantt not Faizabad junction, i know it doesn't count, but still, secondly if it is not official even then this discussion is about WP:COMMONNAME not official name. JaiHind108 (talk) 18:21, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JaiHind108, Please present your evidence that this is the common name. My searches say Faizabad is the common name still. Venkat TL (talk) 18:26, 25 October 2021 (UTC) [reply]
@Venkat TL, Searching "faizabad junction" with quotes gave me 70,900 results while "ayodhya cantt" shows 164,000 result, i dont know how to send screen shot, otherwise i would have shown you. JaiHind108 (talk) 18:34, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Oculi please check my User contributions for JaiHind108 and check if i have done any edit except this to change "faizabad" to "ayodhya". One more thing, let us suppose for second that i have interest in changing "faizabad" to "ayodhya" but i dont think this can be the reason to oppose this RM, if you agree with my given arguments above then support this move, if not then please specify reason and then oppose, and last thing that i have similar same with some blocked user, so what, what do you want to say, please be a little more clear/specific??? thank you JaiHind108 (talk) 04:41, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JaiHind108 so what? So if you are a blocked user then you are not allowed to edit. This thread will then be pointless and be removed without any consequence. Venkat TL (talk) 08:10, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Venkat TL see, if i would be that user why would i use similar name? to get caught?? still you are free to open a sockpuppet investigation against me, if you think that, i can't stop you, go ahead and get your answer!! JaiHind108 (talk) 08:23, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Very upsetting to see a user using JaiHind as name and then lying and using unethical means. Please check. Venkat TL (talk) 08:30, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Venkat TL you have no right to do personal attacks on any user, if you have doubts then go by procedure, dont attack me on my username. JaiHind108 (talk) 10:08, 26 October 2021 (UTC) [reply]
wow, amazing, Oculi had doubt that i am Hindu108 who is a suspected sockpuppet of Sanjaykumartiwari, and Mr. Venkat TL you have started investigation against me of being some other, User:Dusrapehelu, why dont you all seat and decide and then finalize one name, whom i am sockpuppet of??

Please change the title name as Ayodhya Cantt railway station[edit]

Sir, Faizabad Jn. railway station name changed as Ayodhya Cantt railway station on 2nd November 2021. Sir, Ayodhya Cantt railway station is situated in Faizabad, Ayodhya district. Please change the title name of this page as Ayodhya Cantt railway station. It will be helpful for passengers and there will not be any confusion. By the way sir, indian railways are printing ticket with Ayodhya Cantt (AYC) name now. That's why I am requesting to change the title name as Ayodhya Cantt railway station. Thank you.

There was a RM discussion last month. The decision was not to move the article.-- Toddy1 (talk) 21:09, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Ayodhya Cantt railway station is now common name of this railway station. On the newspapers, Newschannels, everywhere this railway station is known as Ayodhya Cantt railway station. Earlier Wikipedia has changed the names of many railway stations, such as Prayagraj Junction which was earlier known as Allahabad Junction. That is why Wikipedia should also change the name of this railway station to Ayodhya Cantt railway station. Thank you sir Powerful2022 (talk) 10:55, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The move you suggest would be the wrong thing to do.

Ayodhya Cantt railway station is the common and the famous name of this railway station. That's why the title name of this Wikipedia page must be changed as Ayodhya Cantt railway station. Thank you. Ebixcashglobal (talk) 02:18, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Correct name is Ayodhya Cantt Junction railway station. Ayodhya-prayagraj (talk) 06:41, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Faizabad Junction railway stationAyodhya Cantt railway station – Previous RM was closed due to sockpuppetry by some irrelevant user, user was irrelevant but the discussion wasn't. his/her argument was correct, "Ayodhya Cantt railway station" is the WP:COMMONNAME and should be placed at the place of title. 49.206.54.243 (talk) 20:26, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose, Faizabad Junction railway station is the WP:COMMON NAME for the station in English. Searches in Google and Google news show far more hits for Faizabad Junction railway station than Ayodhya Cantt railway station. There is a BJP-led push to extinguish the name Faizabad in favour of the nearby city of Ayodhya (the place where fanatic vandals destroyed a mosque in 1992). It is too soon to say whether the BJP-promoted names will become common names.-- Toddy1 (talk) 16:23, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose due to the reasons explained by Toddy1 and due to the fact that the IP user did not give any evidence in support of his claims. --Venkat TL (talk) 16:52, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: Mentioning about 1992 mosque vandalism in a different topic, shows your bias, it looks like you are some bjp hater or something, so it clearly violates WP:NPOV, and about your facts, google search shows around 20000 results for current name and around 150000 results for proposed name. i dont know from where you get these wrong facts. 49.206.54.243 (talk) 20:42, 21 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please fix official name[edit]

Here the official name of railway station is written as Ayodhya Cantt railway station. But it is wrong information. Actually the official and correct name of this railway station is "Ayodhya Cantt Junction railway station". I request to add Junction word also in the official name of this railway station. Deepdan12 (talk) 09:18, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We discussed doing this before, and decided not to do it. See:
-- Toddy1 (talk) 09:25, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am not telling you for changing the title name of this Wikipedia page. Faizabad Junction is correct name of this Wikipedia page in present time. I want to tell you that please add only junction word in the official name of this railway station as Ayodhya Cantt Junction railway station. Thank you. Deepdan12 (talk) 10:27, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

rename the title name as "Ayodhya Cantt Junction railway station"[edit]

I love my old Faizabad town. Please dont change the name of Faizabad district as Ayodhya district now. But in recent 10 to 11 months i have seen that Ayodhya Cantt Junction is very much popular name and it is became common name as well. I am not any supporter of Ayodhya, i support Faizabad always. But due to its popularity and common name, i think Ayodhya Cantt Junction railway is correct name for this Wikipedia page title name. That's why i request you to change the Wikipedia page title name as "Ayodhya Cantt Junction railway station". Thank you Ayodhya-prayagraj (talk) 06:37, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ayodhya Cantt railway station[edit]

Ayodhya Cantt railway station is the common as well as the official name of Faizabad Junction railway station. Govt.of India changed the name of Faizabad Junction railway station as Ayodhya Cantt railway station on 2 November 2021. Please change the name of Faizabad Junction railway station as Ayodhya Cantt railway station. Bikapur (talk) 07:14, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I believe these links are sufficient to prove the common name. Can provide more evidence, if needed.
I appeal more users to come forward and make Wikipedia a credible source of information. Anubhavklal (talk) 22:04, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose: I get 66,900 hits in Google for "Faizabad Junction" as compared to only 22,900 hits for "Ayodhya Cantt Junction" and 22,300 hits for "Ayodhya Cantt railway station". So it is not the time yet for the move. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 09:39, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Faizabad Junction railway stationAyodhya Cantt Junction railway station – common use name should be page title as per guidelines... Anubhavklal (talk) 17:49, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose - For news sources published after the name change in October 2021, "Faizabad Junction railway station" gets me 39 hits while "Ayodhya Cantt Junction railway station" gets me only ONE.
For book sources in the same time period, I get 571 for "Faizabad Junction railway station" and 6 for "Ayodhya Cantt Junction railway station". - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 19:05, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Google search results do not necessarily indicate the current use. Please correct me by providing Wikipedia guidelines mentioning that Google search results count override current usage in credible sources. Anubhavklal (talk) 21:09, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
See for yourself. All sources listed are from reliable news media, sorted based on a time frame after the name change. tell me which policy bars usage of these sources. there are only 6 hits in support of the move. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 21:18, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose for all the reasons advanced by user:Fylindfotberserk Fowler&fowler«Talk» 10:32, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose "Ayodhya Cantt Junction railway station" is an error. The old name is "Faizabad Junction railway station", the new name is "Ayodhya Cantt railway station". I repeated Fylindfotberserk's Google News searches for 1 November 2021 to 1 July 2023 just now with the addition of a search for the new name, and the results were as follows:
Sometimes Google produces different numbers because Google changes its behaviour or its databases.
Only one of five links provided by the proposer is evidence of the station being called "Ayodhya Cantt railway station" in English. Two of the links are to articles about other railway stations, and two of the links are to articles that are not in English.
  • weeklyblitz.net, not relevant. Mentions "Ambala Cantt" but not "Ayodhya Cantt".
  • nextkhabar.in, not in English.
  • theprint.in, mentions "Ayodhya Cantt" railway station three times.
  • hindi.news18.com, not in English.
  • weeklyblitz.net, mentions "Ayodhya Cantt" once in connection with roads. It does talk about "Ayodhya railway station", but that is a different station.

Faizabad Junction railway stationAyodhya Cantt railway station – Official name in common use Anubhavklal (talk) 21:01, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy close we just had a move discussion that ended on 9 July. No new evidence has been offered supporting the move.-- Toddy1 (talk) 21:04, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    But the discussion was closed unilaterally without considering the reasons specified and the common name in use. Let the discussion happen and then whatever consensus is reached should be acceptable to all Anubhavklal (talk) 21:32, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    But the discussion was closed unilaterally - huh? All closures are unilateral. ... without considering the reasons specified and the common name in use - I did consider the reasons specified, and observed that they failed to convince any of the other participants and hence there was consensus not to move. I also considered the evidence they presented as to the common name in use, which was stronger than your bare assertion. then whatever consensus is reached should be acceptable to all - That's not what consensus on Wikipedia is - it should be acceptable to most, especially in cases like this where it's obvious that you and the opposer in the previous RM are working from principles sufficiently incompatible that you have no hope of reaching agreement. While I'm here, I agree this should be speedy closed. * Pppery * it has begun... 18:18, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Procedural oppose - the last closure was appropriate. No new evidence has surfaced since then. ❯❯❯ Raydann(Talk) 01:31, 22 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
