The result of this discussion was to not split the page. -- RickyCourtney (talk) 16:52, 23 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

I get the feeling the fact these two are completely separate stations would effectively mean they should be split into their own articles. The E line is staggered and a relatively simple surface stop while the K line has a "proper" station building and interior being underground. To get between the two you'd have to exit one and go into the other. Why should they share an article beyond having the same name? QuarioQuario54321 (talk) 19:35, 15 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. Probably a good example to follow is what's done for station complexes on the New York City Subway. For example: Times Square–42nd Street station. -- RickyCourtney (talk) 21:24, 15 June 2023 (UTC) Updated with vote. -- RickyCourtney (talk) 21:38, 16 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Not really sure how that applies since at least that is one continuous space while this is literally a surface light stop and a metro station with no interior connection. QuarioQuario54321 (talk) 20:58, 16 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. The walk from one platform to the other is no longer than the walk between platforms at many station complexes around the world with the same name and multiple lines/platforms. More importantly, there's nothing particularly unique about each station that would merit its own article -- they are in the same location (within a few hundred feet), same neighborhood and local landmarks, have the same access to parking places, etc., etc., so making two articles would entail repeating a lot of the same information. I don't see much point in separating them just to be pedantic about what makes something "one station." I agree with RickyCourtney above that NYC subway station complexes are a good guide. --Jfruh (talk) 23:12, 15 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
This wouldn’t apply when you have to exit one station and enter another to transfer, like with a few stations in London with duplicate names or when we split mainline intercity stations from the corresponding metro station. QuarioQuario54321 (talk) 15:37, 23 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. -MJ (talk) 21:24, 19 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. Per reasons stated above. --OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 01:50, 21 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. Don't really know what content one would have that wouldn't apply to the other. SECProto (talk) 02:36, 21 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
