Regarding infobox related revert

Toddy1, hi. All I did was add a mapframe caption "Interactive map". (with regard to this edit) Your edit summary "infoboxes are easier to edit if the parameters are all lined up" concerns spaces in the source code. This happened by itself, for whatever reason. I am not going to spend time removing spaces like this :)

I am going to make the same change, adding "Interactive map" to the mapframe caption, to see if I made a mistake with my last edit. If there are again spacing errors created elsewhere I will undo it myself. FacetsOfNonStickPans (talk) 22:05, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

Ok, so I made the same change. And yes, even though I only added "Interactive map" using the visual editor, spaces were removed automatically. FacetsOfNonStickPans (talk) 22:08, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

This has happened before, it has to do with switching between source and visual editor and where the original code in the previous/original edit has been entered. I've made the change I wanted, adding "Interactive map" (edit). FacetsOfNonStickPans (talk) 22:13, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

Picture for the infobox

Mughalsarai Station 2	Mughalsarai Junction entrance

In my opinion the photograph in the infobox should be one that shows what the station looks like. One that shows little more than a sign with the station's name is not so useful. The above two photographs both achieve this. Mughalsarai Station 2 was the one in use in 2020. Does anyone have a preference?-- Toddy1 (talk) 09:07, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Agree about the sign showing the name not being important (these are often added to get around WP:NOINDICSCRIPT and WP:COMMONNAME). As for the other images, the first shows a gantry, which could be almost any station, the second shows the exterior, which is more specific/recognisable as this specific station. So I prefer Mughalsarai Junction entrance. - Arjayay (talk) 09:22, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks - I have put Mughalsarai Junction entrance.jpg as the infobox picture and moved Mughalsarai Station 2.jpg to the gallery.-- Toddy1 (talk) 09:41, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Deen Dayal Upadhyaya junction

Please move this article to Pt. Deen Dayal Upadhyaya junction only after demonstrating that it has become the common name via a move request. The station was officially renamed only a couple of weeks ago while an editor moved this page in June :S Thanks.—Cpt.a.haddock (talk) (please ping when replying) 11:23, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Moved from User talk:DBigXray

Hi there,

If I understood your reasons correctly on the page move cancellation, I am hereby proving the links required to confirm the renaming.

Pls advise if I should post them on the talk page of the article also & can I move the article again.

Hi Superfast1111, Thanks for your kind message on my talk page. Please understand that there is no doubt that the official name of this station has been changed. However Wikipedia articles are not based on the official name but rather on WP:COMMONNAME. For example Bangalore has been changed to Bengaluru officially several years back, yet the article is still on the old more common name. If you believe that DDU is the common name then you have to share evidence that DDU is the common name on the talk page to get consensus for a move. see Wikipedia:Requested moves/Controversial. FYI, IMHO The common name is still the old name and hence I will oppose such a move request. regards. --DBigXrayᗙ 10:34, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

• Thanks DbigXray for clarifying the matter. Accordingly, I will take no further action until further consensus takes place.

Superfast1111 (talk) 10:41, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

This is an article from today, and we can see that reliable media is still using Mughalsarai name and not DDU. --DBigXrayᗙ 19:43, 7 December 2019 (UTC)

@DBigXray: Nice find. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 09:51, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Prayagraj junction was also changed almost at same time as Deen Dayal but why seperate yardstick for them? Anubhavklal 19:16, 11 February 2023 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anubhavklal (talk • contribs)

The change for Allahabad Junction was sneaked through. If it had had proper member scrutiny, it would probably have been rejected.-- Toddy1 (talk) 09:57, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

Is there a way, to sneak through for this one also. It is gross injustice to users of Wikipedia, to deprive them of knowing the common name, just to preserve one own point of view/political position. Anubhavklal (talk) 18:21, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

The article tells the users both names already.-- Toddy1 (talk) 20:02, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

Yes the article can still have old name also but I am talking about the title. Why to prevent moving to new title just because of political bias? Anubhavklal (talk) 00:44, 23 June 2023 (UTC)

I have answered your question at User talk:Anubhavklal#June 2023.-- Toddy1 (talk) 09:24, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
