Talk:Bristol bus station

Really needed?

Is this page really needed? It contains very little new information. Mark999 11:56, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Naming convention

It looks like this page has been previously at Bristol bus station but then moved here. Worth having a discussion about the best naming convention before moving it back again? Is there a standard amongst bus station articles...? Whouk (talk) 13:09, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

 Done Whouk - As you've probably noticed this has gone unnoticed for a good 5 years but a newbie editing it caught my eye! - Anyway I've requested a move at WP:RM, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 02:03, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

Requested move 18 November 2017

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Closing as nothing to contest over - MOS:CAPS says it all –Davey2010^Talk 20:03, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

Bristol Bus Station → Bristol bus station – No need for caps - All other bus stations go by lowercase. –Davey2010^Talk 02:04, 18 November 2017 (UTC) –Davey2010^Talk 02:04, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request (permalink). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anthony Appleyard (talk • contribs) 19:12, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

I don't think it was contested. Was listed as contested by me, but I didn't. This is the kind of correction-of-overcapitalization request that's become routine, despite some tendentious opposition from certain railfans.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ<  19:19, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

• Support per MOS:CAPS, WP:NCCAPS, and lots of precedent. We've been down-casing overcapitalized station articles for a couple of years now.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ<  19:12, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

• SMcCandlish - Could I ask why you've set this RM up ? ... It doesn't make sense for you to essentially contest it and then support it anyway ? .... If it's a consensus thing then those who disliked it would be told to "go away" in less polite terms .... Not having a go but I'm not seeing the logic behind this, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 19:43, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

• I neither contested it nor set it up. Anthony Appleyard set it up, on the wrong page (at the redirect talk page Talk:Bristol Bus Station), saying I'd contested it, but I did not contest it, and agree that it's a routine move. I think it was just some kind of error, and I moved it to the correct page and supported the proposed move. I don't care if the RM is closed early, or runs the full course, since the outcome is obvious either way.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ<  19:55, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

• Ah right in that case my apologies, Well I'm not sure why they contested but there's obviously nothing to contest so I'm wrapping this up - Thanks for your help in moving the RM and commenting :), –Davey2010^Talk 20:03, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
