Talk:WTC Cortlandt station

message: The article says, "One of the Vickers mosaics is preserved in the New York Transit Museum." Is the one in the picture the mentioned one? Vcohen (talk) 06:38, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: That looks like a Robert Fulton boat. So, I am not sure, but this is probably not the station's mosaic. – Epicgenius (talk) 18:09, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  Sorry, which of my links do you mean? The last one is certainly from this station. Do you mean these are two different boats? Vcohen (talk) 18:27, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  Oh. It isn't Fulton Street after all. I was mistaken; I mistook this station's mosaic with the mosaic in the Fulton Street Lexington Avenue Line station. In retrospect, this could be the preserved Vickers mosaic. Epicgenius (talk) 19:46, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

message: At this point, we have a few options for the page title.  
This is a situation where it might be better to expand the title a little, as station signage says "World Trade Center".

replies: text: The problem is, the signage conflicts with the station name. --Captian Cavy (talk) 17:08, 8 September 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: WTC is short for "World Trade Center". Generally we don't use abbreviations to describe the full title of an object unless they are primarily known by their abbreviation, per WP:ACRONYMTITLE. I don't see any evidence that the "WTC" abbreviation is the proper name of the station (some of the signs and media spell out the full name), so we should use the full "World Trade Center" title. That's also why the previous name of this article was "Cortlandt Street" and not "Cortlandt St.". epicgenius (talk) 17:36, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: And I see the MTA refers to this station as "WTC Cortlandt Street". That makes things more confusing. The wall signs say "World Trade Center", the columns say "WTC Cortlandt", and all this time the media have been saying "Cortlandt Street". epicgenius (talk) 18:10, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: At this point we might end up with World Trade Center–Cortlandt Street (IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line) --Captian Cavy (talk) 19:43, 8 September 2018 (UTC)

text: Thanks for your edits. It should go to WTC Cortlandt.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 01:49, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

text: Wow I didn't think the MTA would actually update that data so quickly. But yes, I agree that it should be #4. Also, the source on the article exclusively says WTC Cortlandt and even instructs conductors to not announce it as the fully spelled out "World Trade Center". I do wish the MTA would be consistent with signage, but until we have a decent timeframe to determine a common name, it should be WTC Cortlandt. -- rellmerr (talk page • contribs)  02:28, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Page Title 

message: I would like to request that this discussion be closed. There is no consensus to move the page and there hasn't been any consensus for the past 12-13 years to move pages with similar title situations. We are beating a deadhorse and instead about improving the encyclopedia with reputable content we worry about technical nonsense. IAR exists for a reason, and unless certain people stop worrying about these mundane technicalities this place will continue to come up short to bureaucracy. —LRG5784 (talk · contribs · email) 23:15, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: There is consensus on how to name these pages (WP:PRECISION, WP:USSTATION, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject New York City Public Transportation/New York City Subway/Station naming convention#Moving forward), despite some editors' attempts to revive the dead horse. Unless they stop bureaucratically insisting on these foolish consistencies, the attempts to improve the encyclopedia will keep coming up. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:41, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree with JHJ that this is just local consensus, its long-standing consensus that we don't usually use brackets or commas unless there part of the name (like Barugh (Great and Little) and Horwood, Lovacott and Newton Tracey). Unless we're leaving the base names for articles on the general areas to be created. Crouch, Swale (talk)  13:59, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

text: You obviously don't know what you're talking about. If we are still discussing this matter now, then there is obviously no consensus.You are taking following every single Wikipedia policy and guideline to heart. Every time this discussion arises, it goes nowhere. Just let it go already, it's not as serious as you make it out to be. As long as people like you exist it just makes every contributor's lives harder because of users like you that like to wave the bureaucratic finger everywhere. —LRG5784 (talk · contribs · email) 18:13, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: You obviously don't understand WP:CONSENSUS. By all means, just get on board already, it's not as serious as you make it out to be. As long as people like you exist is just makes every contributor's life harder because of users like you who like to wave the local consensus finger everywhere. (And if you'll stop making it personal, I'll stop illustrating how absurd those arguments are through simple rewording in line to make them line up with the actual project policies.)-- JHunterJ (talk) 18:28, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: You're a joke and so are your admin skills. Don't even try to dissuade yourself from that notion.This discussion is pointless. Go worry about some users vandalizing or answer to messages on WP:AN/I and quit acting like you have better judgment on everything, because you don't. Good day to you sir!

thread_title:  Layout 

message: There seems to be very little on what happened in the station on the day itself aside from the damage substantiated. Was there any injuries or fatalities inside station or was it full evacuated before anything could occur (was it even open at the time)? Some minor details answering these questions would be helpful.86.176.125.223 (talk) 21:46, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Events on 9/11 

message: If this is the article the WTC Cortdlandt station, why does the station layout show two other stations? These layout diagrams are already kinds of confusing as it is to then be showing an entire complex of separate stations. In fact, there is a note further down that station that makes clear that there are separately controlled for fares. I get that they are all connected, but that's what the "connections" field is for in a station article infobox. Criticalthinker (talk) 04:38, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
