Talk:Washington Park station (TriMet)

Page move
It has been proposed below that Washington Park be renamed and moved to Washington Park (baseball) so that Washington Park (disambiguation) can be moved in its place. Please discuss at Talk:Washington Park.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 15:22, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Should this page be moved to Washington Park station (Portland, Oregon)? Portland articles are almost always disambiguated by the full city name, since there are many Portlands and Portland, Oregon is the name of the parent article. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 20:08, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Given that the other Portlands are unlikely to develop a rail system with similarly-named stations that qualify for an article, I don't think we need to add the state. This would also affect Convention Center station (Portland) and Rosa Parks station (Portland) and need to follow WP:USSTATION guidelines. It may be better to disambiguate by system (e.g. adding TriMet instead) per the guideline and other examples, like Vancouver's SkyTrain and Washington, D.C., since MAX does serve more than just Portland.

 * I read the style guide, and without studying it in great detail, it doesn't seem to provide a definitive answer. But 's solution of a (TriMet) disambiguator has great appeal. YBG (talk) 00:31, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I have no problem disambiguating by system, if this is consistent with other transit articles. Thanks for the suggestion, . --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 18:07, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to have it as Washington Park station (MAX Light Rail) like how the other stations articles, Washington Park station (MetroLink) and Washington Park station (Newark Light Rail), have it? TriMet is the operator, not the system. --Truflip99 (talk) 08:43, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Support disambiguating by system: more accurate and concise than the geographical alternative. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HyperGaruda (talk • contribs) November 8, 2018 05:08 (UTC)
 * Support dab by system (TriMet) as I indicated above YBG (talk) 07:45, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

 * As I cited above, the norm is to use the operator's name (which is less likely to change) than a system name (which can be rebranded...e.g. Baltimore's recent rebrand).  Sounder Bruce  01:05, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * But none of what you cited above contain the operator's name. Edmonds station (SkyTrain) =/= TransLink (which, btw saw a bunch of renames in its history); Crystal City station (Washington Metro) =/= WMATA. One can also argue that TriMet has had one more rebranding done to it (from Tri-Met) than the MAX, which has never changed its name (nor do I think it ever will). --Truflip99 (talk) 07:34, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
 * There's too many transit services named MAX to make it an appropriate disambiguator. Even "MAX Light Rail" runs into issues with the Perth proposal, and will likely be re-used again by another city eventually. TriMet is more unique and much shorter.  Sounder Bruce  07:39, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
 * This should be kept at TriMet.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 13:33, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
