The result of the move request was: Move. Solid consensus that the parenthetical is an unnecessary addition. Cúchullain t/c 16:26, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]



Pennsauken Transit Center (NJT station)Pennsauken Transit Center – The title "Pennsauken Transit Center" is a proper name. It is incorrect and unnecessary to use the suffixed disambiguation. Secondarywaltz (talk) 04:48, 18 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • That's my point. We don't have any naming conventions. If we're going to just use whatever the local name is then we should have a standard that says so, even if it gives us monsters like William F. Walsh Regional Transportation Center. If we're going to impose parenthetical disambiguation then we should say so. There is a peculiar, stubborn resistance amongst North American editors (of which I am one) to adopting any kind of reasonable standard, and that includes documenting the slowly-dying preemptive parenthetical disambiguation standard. As I said, death by a thousand cuts. Before we carve out yet another exception to the unofficial standard I think it would be awesome to actually articulate a standard. Or not. However, if articles aren't going to have consistent names that has implications for templates and potentially categorization. Mackensen (talk) 01:43, 19 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
