Hi Luttiyaki! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Puyallup station that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Thank you. - Sumanuil. _{(talk to me)} 03:55, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello! I'm a bit confused -- as far as I'm aware, really the only edit I made was changing the capitalization of the word 'station' throughout Puyallup station (when referring to the specific station itself) to fit the naming convention shown on the station's official website, which the article links to? (I also mistakenly changed this for a few pictures, which I fixed right after.) If you could provide more insight into how my edit differed from a typo edit and is not a minor edit, please let me know! (Additionally, I believe the article name may need to have the second word capitalized? I couldn't do so myself.) Thanks for your help! Luttiyaki (talk) 04:02, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Per WP:USSTATION, the uncapitalized form is used for stations that don't include "Station" as part of their proper name. SounderBruce 06:21, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the correction! Apologies for the mistake. (I will say that those guidelines exempt this for stations that are not commonly capitalized in sources, and it seems the station is generally capitalized from my cursory search online, but I'm not about to get into a fight over semantics -- I could be very wrong, anyways, I think you know much more than I do, so I'll defer to you here.) Thank you again for the help, I'm more than satisfied with the explanation I received. :) Luttiyaki (talk) 06:28, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
