[edit] article name

Should this be at Kensington Olympia station? The station name only has brackets on the tube map, and since it is managed by Silverlink (who are the primary users) shouldn't the name be what they call (and National Rail call it) rather than what one of the minority users (LUL) call it?

[edit] motorail

Should this section be deleted, or at least changed, since motorail no longer operates? Badgerific 11:26, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Kensington (Olympia) stationKensington Olympia station — Brackets only appear on the Tube map. Majority of official sources (Network Rail documents, the National Rail Timetable, station signage itself - at one point a huge banner across the footbridge) omit them. —90.203.45.244 (talk) 20:03, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.
  • Support. It seems likely that the brackets are there just because of the tube map. The common name would most probably omit them. No significant edit history at the target name, incidentally. Andrewa (talk) 18:20, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
