Talk:Bangkok Bus Terminal (Chatuchak)

Move discussion for this article and Bangkok Bus Terminal (Borommaratchachonnani)

edit

First, I'd like to justify my rationale on boldly moving this article alongside Bangkok Bus Terminal (Borommaratchachonnani) by quoting a text from a move discussion I participated in:

+1; I agree with SMcCandlish's closing that there is not consensus for including "Windows" in the title, and further that there is no consensus for any "-[something]" construction at all; various editors have favored shorter versions, and this would be more consonant with WP:CONCISE policy. My personal view is lengthy titles should be avoided when something like "2024 CrowdStrike outage" or "2024 CrowdStrike IT outage" are clearly identifiable. Article titles don't need to properly attribute the exact causes of the incident; there's a reason no one is pushing for "Channel File 291 Incident". I think this will go smoother if we stop creating options from grafting together everyone's specific concerns. Options like 2024 global CrowdStrike outages affecting Windows systems go well beyond what is necessary for disambiguation. Dylnuge (TalkEdits) 14:57, 8 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

My interpretation for WP:CONCISE is that unlike in Thai Wikipedia where lengthy but more complete titles are more preferable, English Wikipedia prefer shortest possible title without ambiguity.

Though, in retrospective, @Paul012 was right about Mo Chit 2 or Sai Tai Mai being too short for proper context in English language. That said I still want to move these articles to better names as word ordering in Thai is different than in English.

My proposal new article names are either

  1. Mo Chit 2 Bus Terminal
  2. Sai Tai Mai Bus Terminal
  3. Ekkamai Bus Terminal

or:

  1. Chatuchak Bus Terminal
  2. Borommaratchachonnani Bus Terminal
  3. Ekkamai Bus Terminal

Or any other naming schemes where the specific location of each of the 3 Bus Terminals in Bangkok precedes "Bus Terminal". Jothefiredragon🐲talk🐉edits 15:04, 8 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
