@Truflip99: FYI!

- @Truflip99: Do we need "{{MAX infobox header|Mall/SW 5th Ave|blue|red}}" in the infobox two times? ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:29, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Another Believer: One of them is for the other platform, 4th Avenue. --Truflip99 (talk) 16:32, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
- Truflip99, Ah, I see the difference now, my mistake! ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:33, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

– The current page names are quite long and would require a lot of effort to be typed in on any potential reader's part. These new ,shorter page names would get general context of the MAX stations, but would be easier to find. (The current page names could become redirects.) These names are just my ideas, if there are any other shorter names that gain consensus I am fine with that. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 03:32, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
SupportYBG (talk) 05:27, 15 November 2024 (UTC)- On further consideration, I would suggest withdrawing this RM and starting a new one that covers all max stations, not just the double ones. I think we should use the station names as listed on [1]. This would eliminate the extraneous "Avenue" and change the directionals to 1- or 2-letter abbreviations. I would also suggest eliminating the slash (/) that trimet includes. This char is allowed in main space page names, but it doesn’t work well – see the link at the top of this talk page that is supposed to go to the article page but the target is truncated at the first "/".

- Thanks. I will do that, as that seems like a better idea. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 01:27, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

- Comment While I agree that the current titles are a mouthful, the proposed titles seem to be WP:OR. What do reliable sources call these stations? 162 etc. (talk) 05:59, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- I had the same thought as 162 etc. @Truflip99, SJ Morg, and SounderBruce: Hoping you all might weigh in here, since you do transit-related work and have edited this article before. ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:38, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- I've added some more that would fall under the scope of this discussion. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 17:32, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- Can you cite reliable sources for any of this? 162 etc. (talk) 17:40, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- Making it shorter under WP:CONCISE? thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 17:47, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
