:If you go to just about anywhere in the St Pancras concourse (it’s celebrating an anniversary right now with big posters and displays everywhere) or read any of the book sources given, you will find the information you are looking for. If you’d started the discussion here with something like “I don’t understand when exactly the station was built - some time in the 1860s? Why haven’t we cited the Act of Parliament?” I might have been more sympathetic, but since you’ve not demonstrated any interest in the station, I’m not minded to listen. OWN does not mean “let anyone put any edits in even if they make the article worse for the reader”. User:Beyond My Ken/thoughts#Tags has the best explanation.

:::No. The level of tagging was ludicrous and appeared to be hostile. This is supposed to be a collaborative project. I wouldn't quote WP:OWN at people like that in this circumstance. Best wishes to all DBaK (talk) 14:08, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

::::More to the point, the prose sets the timeline by citing the 1863 Act of Parliament, describes the construction methods (which, kind of by definition are a continuous activity), then cites the 1868 opening date. Specific dates won't help the reader, unless they're something like "this part of the project took 18 months". Of course, if you can't have a conversation about the topic and material, but just hurl random policies and insults, you'll never get what you want.

:{{done}}{{snd}}it's gone now. Nuthin' to see here. DBaK (talk) 13:57, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

As the article says, the station has been known officially as London St Pancras International for quite a while now. It is referred to as such on a lot of things (e.g. Thameslink announcements, TfL maps and signage). I see no reason why the article shouldn't be renamed to St Pancras International Railway Station.

:I still think St Pancras better meets WP:COMMONNAME - whilst officially I agree it's now been St Pancras International since 2007, the majority of coverage from reliable sources ([https://metro.co.uk/2023/01/06/which-countries-and-cities-do-eurostar-trains-go-to-from-london-18047339/] [https://www.ft.com/content/1214d8fe-0105-464a-abae-f1c48f3185ef] for two examples within the last week) still refers to St Pancras, without the 'International' suffix. Mike1901 (talk) 18:10, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Fair enough. In general use I've always heard it referred to as St Pancras so I suppose it's the best name for it. Bobster1001 (talk) 18:16, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Could the services, domestic services, international services and service pattern sections be merged into one? There's a lot of information that appears to be repeated over multiple areas. I could do it now however I'm not sure if it's like that for a reason. Bobster1001 (talk) 18:18, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

:IMO, the plain "Services" section could easily be made redundant by having its content moved to the relevant sections (the first paragraph really should remain where it is and have its heading renamed to "Platform layout" - consistency across other station articles). The other parts should be moved to the relevant sections later. Happy to hear the thoughts of other editors though. Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 18:26, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Yeah I agree. The services section seems a bit pointless considering there's already domestic and international services sections Bobster1001 (talk) 18:33, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
