[edit] Updates

I added a link for Blue22, since there is a separate Wikipedia article for it.--Stetson 06:13, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

It's called Blue22 for its trip time, not 22km distance. It will also increase rail traffic more than four-fold.

added photograph http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Weston_st_phillips.jpg and coordinates to top right of page which links to usefull information. Weston ontario 21:31, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Move suggestion

I propose that this article be moved to Weston, Ontario as per Wikipedia:CANSTYLE#Neighbourhoods/communities guidelines as it was a formerly autonomous town that is recognised by Canada Post. DoubleBlue (Talk) 22:53, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Support. Move consistent with applicable naming convention. Skeezix1000 (talk) 15:06, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Support, per CANSTYLE convention. Mindmatrix 18:12, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Support per CANYSTYLE. DigitalC (talk) 23:52, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Against, not sure about the move. weston's current status is as a neighborhood in the city of toronto. there is a re-direct page that links the words "weston ontario" to the current article. it used to be weston ontario but now it is currently part of toronto. as much as i'd love to see weston be its own town again, i'm against the article move because it doesn't reflect the current reality.

Per WP:CANSTYLE, any place that's recognized by Canada Post as a separate mailing address can have an article title in the "Place, Ontario" format regardless of whether it's an independent municipality or a city neighbourhood. Scarborough, Etobicoke, East York and North York are titled in the "Place, Ontario" format, and they aren't independent cities anymore either. Thornhill is also named in the "Place, Ontario" format, and it's never been a separate municipality. Bearcat (talk) 00:29, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Support per CANSTYLE, I thought the guideline should be Weston (Toronto) but I didn't comment at the time, now it is what it is. Franamax (talk) 23:27, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

With 5 supports citing WP:CANSTYLE guidelines and one "unsure" against because it's part of Toronto, I will now move the article as proposed. Thanks all for your consideration. DoubleBlue (Talk) 01:59, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
