Shijiazhuang–Taiyuan high-speed railway → Shijiazhuang–Taiyuan passenger railway – reason for move 173.167.126.157 (talk) 01:43, 27 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Object to speedy move are you saying there has never been any passenger service on Shijiazhuang–Taiyuan railway ? -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 06:44, 27 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:51, 27 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Speedy procedural close nominator did not provide a rationale -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 06:57, 27 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. The first reference (the only one in English) calls it the "Shijiazhuang-Taiyuan railway" (not "passenger r."). We could merge the minimal content at Shijiazhuang-Taiyuan railway. Alternatively, Qingdao–Taiyuan high-speed railway, of which this is a section, is a redirect to Qingdao–Yinchuan passageway, and about twenty other articles about high-speed railways in China use "passageway" (many listed at High-speed rail in China#8+8 HSR Grid) so we could follow suit and call it Shijiazhuang–Taiyuan passageway. 94.21.204.175 (talk) 13:16, 27 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
- Merging makes no sense, they are different lines, with different establishment dates. We don't merge two movie articles together just because they have the same name. "Passageway" makes little sense, it's not proper English (a passageway is not especially a rail line and is a misleading title), and it isn't being used as proper noun, so shouldn't be used at all. -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 05:11, 28 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

It would make sense to merge if one is seen as the replacement for the other, essentially in a "history" section. But if not, not. "Passageway" is surprising to me, but that's how it is. I couldn't find any RS using that term. 94.21.204.175 (talk) 13:34, 28 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

You are conflating two different topics together. We don't merge articles on two buildings when one is built on top of the location of a demolished building. One World Trade Center is not merged with World Trade Center (1973–2001). And from the state of the articles, it appears that the older rail line still exists, so isn't just history. if you can't find any RS using the term "Passageway", then we can't use that term -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 01:12, 29 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
