IP block exempt

I have granted your account an exemption from IP blocking. This will allow you to edit through full blocks affecting your IP address when you are logged in.

Please read the page Wikipedia:IP block exemption carefully, especially the section on IP block exemption conditions.

Note in particular that you are not permitted to use this newly-granted right to edit Wikipedia via anonymous proxies, or disruptively. If you do, or there is a serious concern of abuse, then the right may be removed by any administrator.

Appropriate usage and compliance with the policy may be checked periodically, due to the nature of block exemption, and block exemption will be removed when no longer needed (for example, when the block it is related to expires).

I hope this will enhance your editing, and allow you to edit successfully and without disruption. Tim Song (talk) 18:10, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Shanghai Metro renaming

Hello, I have seen that you have begun to rename Shanghai Metro articles from the XXX (Shanghai Metro) format to the XXX station format. I have seen your comments on the Talk:Shanghai Metro page but I don't understand your reasoning for renaming all the articles when the format of XXX (Shanghai Metro) is already being used without any problems. There are many examples of metro and subway systems on Wikipedia that use this system:

• NYC: South Ferry – Whitehall_Street (New York City Subway)
• Hong Kong: Admiralty Station (MTR)
• Toronto: Don Mills (TTC)

I know there are some inconsistencies with this format but obviously it would be unfeasible to change them all to the correct format. There isn't really a format that is widely agreed upon. Doing random searches I can see XXX (system), XXX station, XXX Station, XXX (system) station, XXX (system station).

Since the examples I've listed above use this system, isn't the status quo or the current naming of articles for the Shanghai Metro fine? If the format was incorrect I am sure the contributors to the New York City Subway would have changed it by now. I feel at this time it is unnecessary. THank you.

• Yes, they have XXX (line) but that makes sense to distinguish between the stations on different lines. And if you see the articles that dont have other stations with the same name, they do have (New York City Subway) attached to them. What is weird to you isn't incorrect.

  • Hello. I have discussed this with the people at Wikipedia:WikiProject Trains and it seems that there is no standard naming convention. Your idea that your convention is "better" is not correct as they dont have a standard, and none of them are "better." However, if you wish to rename all of the articles in that fashion (convention), you can do so without any further objection from me. I see that you have already renamed several articles. To ensure a consistent naming convention, you should probably rename all of the other articles. Maybe with something like Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser like you mentioned. Alternatively, you can rename the articles back. I understand that you want to keep with the convention most widely used for Asian systems and that is fine.

Your Beijing Subway image

While looking through your English version of the Beijing Subway map, I noticed that you had two of the Line 6 stages, Huangqu and Changying, mixed up on the map. Ac2k (talk) 18:51, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
