Text and/or other creative content from Liverpool St James railway station was copied or moved into Liverpool Baltic railway station with this edit on 21:16, 23 May 2023. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Can we make sure that the "National Rail lines" boxes are only used for stations that exist at present, and not for stations which have closed? --RFBailey 17:00, 4 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The article seems to be well referenced, is it time to remove the request for additional citations for verification? Hagis uk (talk) 09:15, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Article split?[edit]

@Darrelljon has just suggested that the article be split so that the 21st century content goes into a new article Liverpool Baltic railway station. 10mmsocket (talk) 09:57, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nomination. I think it's cleaner and neater to separate the two lives of the station as they are going to have different names. Where a station simply re-opens under the same name I can see that the article is kept - and there are a lot of them - see Category:Reopened railway stations in Great Britain. What I'm not sure if whether the is precedence for doing it where the name changes. 10mmsocket (talk) 09:58, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Strong support; I moved content from Dalcross railway station to Inverness Airport railway station a few months back, same should be done here (IMO, as soon as possible). A passing mention in the lead of this article is all that is required. Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 15:18, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support - makes good sense to me. LicenceToCrenellate (talk) 17:13, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Taken the liberty of doing it because it feels blatantly obvious (even if I broke some rule somewhere...!) - not that anyone opposed it today though... Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 20:18, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's called WP:BRD. You are bold. If someone disagrees, they'll revert it and we discuss some more. That simple. 10mmsocket (talk) 21:00, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
