Requested move 12 May 2020

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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Moved. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:36, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

– This is the most common use of the Bay station name. The Ottawa station is defunct (not notable Transitway bus stops, and replaced by Lyon station), while the Edmonton station is currently known as Bay/Enterprise Square. Both stations are now in a hatnote on the Toronto page. LABcrabs (talk) 17:57, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:10, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Note: Target or "new" titles cannot have non-redirected content unless they are also to be renamed. This request has been altered to reflect that fact. P.I. Ellsworth ed. ^put'r there 16:32, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Pace WP:RM#Request all associated moves explicitly, I'll infer that the nominator wishes to move Bay station to Bay station (disambiguation). But I think more evidence is needed that this is the primary topic. I'd also add bay platform to the disambiguation page.

Also, Bay LRT Station is the only redirect to the disambiguation page, but I think neither the subway station nor the bus stop is an LRT station, so that should probably be retargeted to Bay/Enterprise Square station. 178.164.139.126 (talk) 04:10, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I commented out the hatnote since it's unnecessary right now. 178.164.139.126 (talk) 10:28, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Toronto's Bay station is clearly the primary topic. Between the stations in Toronto and Edmonton, the Toronto station captures 85% of pageviews, plus the Edmonton station was renamed over a decade ago. I don't think we need a dab page and I don't think that Ottawa's non-notable former bus stop needs to be linked from anywhere. "Bay station" should be about the Toronto station and have a hatnote to Bay/Enterprise; Bay LRT Station can redirect to Bay/Enterprise as well. BLAIXX 12:48, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please let me know why my edition was reverted over and over

@Joeyconnick I don't know why you're reverting editions about the reopening of Lower bay for Halloween event in 2023. This event did exist and I provided a reliable source, so please don't let it disappear. Thank you.--—and in that light, Fz20181223 find deliverance.— 17:30, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Because:

the station is open periodically... the article is not meant to be a laundry list of every single time it's been made accessible to the public since we are not indiscriminate: just because something can be sourced doesn't mean it warrants inclusion
each addition (not "edition") had significant issues with spelling and grammar

—Joeyconnick (talk) 18:51, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So do you think it would be better if we set up another page to store the information about the reopening events or just delete all the reopening events on this page?--—and in that light, Fz20181223 find deliverance.— 18:55, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's 100% not page-worthy. I've reduced the section in the article to reflect the first big public access in 2007 as part of Doors Open and left in references to the fact it has been open to the public at various times since then. —Joeyconnick (talk) 19:07, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds great! Thank you! --—and in that light, Fz20181223 find deliverance.— 19:27, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
