Glasgow's Central station

Hi Stewart, Thanks for your note. I understand your annoyance. I also accept that Glasgow Central is known by several names: possibly Glasgow people know it as Central station (with or without a capital S), whereas I tend to call it Glasgow Central to distinguish it from, for example Greenock Central or Dumbarton Central. It appears logical to me to call it Glasgow Central station. Similarly, I would tend to use Gilmour Street, whereas, it is more formally Paisley Gilmour Street, or (better still) Paisley Gilmour Street station; and whilst you have a preference for Langside, Langside station would be better. Whilst I can understand your annoyance at the unagreed renaming of Central Station, that was its original name and it was changed (and reverted) at least twice without consensus; and we were told to discuss it at a UK level. This is being BOLD and it appears to to wikipedia policy. Yes, I would like to rename Bridge Street railway station to Bridge Street station; I was never consulted about the renaming and no consensus was ever sought, but I have more pressing things to do first. Both were station articles that I (and others) put a lot of work into; and their renaming caused me considerable annoyance. Some of those who did this renaming (I do not include you in this statement) are calling loudest to revert to their own station renamings; that, equally, had no consensus. Sorry, Langside to me is the site of a battle, not a (railway station), but change it if you feel that strongly.Pyrotec 20:38, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
