Kamphaeng Phet Station → Kamphaeng Phet MRT Station – All other MRT Stations on the MRT Blue Line in Bangkok use the format xxxx MRT Station Matthewmayer (talk) 18:33, 27 November 2016 (UTC) --Relisting. Bradv 22:57, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

• Oppose until a naming convention is clarified. There is some chance that Kamphaeng Phet Station and such are supportable as proper names of stations, but the descriptive names that include MRT should use lowercase station, as is common in guidebooks and such. Pick one, and we can fix the rest of the titles instead of making this one match a pattern the deviates from WP:NCCAPS. Dicklyon (talk) 20:58, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
  • Category:MRT (Bangkok) stations and Category:BTS Skytrain stations All the other MRT and BTS stations currently use an uppercase Station. I don't think it's necessary to move all to a lowercase station since all are consistent except for Kamphaeng Phet. Matthewmayer (talk) 13:54, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
• Just for the sake of consistency, I'd support this move for now. A newer discussion covering all stations can later be held to determine whether all of then should be changed. --Paul_012 (talk) 14:47, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

Moved to Kamphaeng Phet MRT Station

I have ignored all rules and moved the article to Kamphaeng Phet MRT Station, which was the original title of the article before a cut&paste move on 2 December 2013. It is clear from the above discussion that there's no consensus on naming conventions for the entire MRT system, and this should be figured out. In the mean time, however, there's no reason to retain such inconsistency resulting from an arbitrary cut&paste move (which has now been histmerged). --Paul_012 (talk) 06:32, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Sorry, I accidentally removed this talk item when rolling back the copy-paste move. Hopefully it's no longer relevant, but this will take some sorting out. Dicklyon (talk) 06:58, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Here's an attempt to clarify things a bit:

• The page was created as Kamphaeng Phet metro station in February 2005.
• Page moved to Kamphaeng Phet MRT station in January 2009.
• Moved to Kamphaeng Phet Station in April 2011, and reverted back to Kamphaeng Phet MRT station in December.
• Cut&paste moved to Kamphaeng Phet Station in December 2013.
• Move requested to Kamphaeng Phet MRT station November–December 2016, closed as no consensus. No one noticed that there had been an earlier cut&paste move.
• Histmerge requested and done on 3 January 2017.
• Page moved by me to Kamphaeng Phet MRT station and reverted by Dicklyon back to Kamphaeng Phet Station today (8 January), due to talk page contents being copy-pasted.

Unless Dicklyon or someone else objects, I'll repeat the move of the article (but leave the talk pages alone this time). This is a reversal of the undiscussed cut&paste move from 2013, so the later no-consensus move request shouldn't have any effect on it. If there's objection, well whatever. I won't waste more time on this article. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:26, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

That's more than I want to know. I saw there was a recent history merge; another copy-paste move would again disconnect content from history, would it not? So I'm unclear on whether that's what you're proposing. If the move you propose is not controversial, ask an admin at WP:RM to help get it right. Dicklyon (talk) 15:36, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

@Paul 012: The solution to a copy & paste move from four years ago isn't to do another one. Dicklyon has rightly reverted your changes. If it's important to move this article, please open another Requested Move discussion, or take the previous closure to WP:MRV. Bradv 15:50, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Seeing as nobody was opposed to the renaming of the article, I've repeated the move. No copy/paste done. --Paul_012 (talk) 17:04, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

I just said, open another discussion or take the previous to MRV. Do not move it yourself. Bradv 17:07, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Sorry for misunderstanding; I read the earlier comments by Dicklyon and Bradv to mean that they were against copy&pasting but not moving the article. Since this clearly isn't getting anywhere, I'll stop wasting everyone's time. --Paul_012 (talk) 17:12, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Kamphaeng Phet Station → Kamphaeng Phet MRT station – As suggested before for consistency, but now without the over-capitalization; this MRT station's name is Kamphaeng Phet. Dicklyon (talk) 00:06, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

• Whatever. You and Bradv are the only people who previously objected to renaming the page, and Bradv has never given a reason for objecting. This can probably can be treated as uncontroversial. --Paul_012 (talk) 03:35, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
• Support. It's clear that since the last discussion these have been standardized. I'm with Paul_012, go ahead and treat this as uncontroversial. Bradv 03:49, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
