Talk:List of fictional rapid transit stations

Article scope
Is this about London Underground stations or fictional metro stations in general? Simply south 21:44, 13 March 2007 (UTC)


 * I think they mean general. But the name implies otherwise. Pacific Coast Highway { Kiss me! • I'm irish! } 21:56, 13 March 2007 (UTC)


 * I looked at the edit history to see if the page had been renamed – it hadn't. When created, the article contained only London Underground stations, and the lede paragraph was written as now. I would prefer a separate article for London Underground stations, but removing them would leave 'Fictional underground stations' as a stub.
 * Part of the problem is terminology. Those of us who have grown up with The Underground will use the term generically for any underground rail system: Paris has an 'underground' called The Metro, New York has an 'underground' called The Subway, etc.  I suspect this was the case with the article creator.

 * The way the article's written suggests it was meant for the Underground, as 95% of the entries are London-based and the topic sentence has a wiki link to the London Underground instead of rapid transit. I don't care either way, but we should probably decide explicitly so the article can be cleaned up to better suit its scope. If we lean towards general, I'd like to see


 * the article renamed...Fictional rapid transit stations is about as clear as it gets.
 * red links removed...face it, most of these wiki page wannabes will never exist. Drop wikilinking every fictional station, and if an appropriate article is added, link it.
 * non-UK stations added. Not that I can think of any. :)

West Ashfield tube station
I've added a link to the West Ashfield tube station article in the "See also" template at the top of the "List of fictional London Underground stations" section. The station is not a real London Underground station, but is also not really fictional, as it it exists as a training facility, so I thought it would be a "see also", but feel free to add it into the list, if you think that is more appropriate.
