Portal renaming[edit]

The TJPA renamed the project to "The Portal" (https://www.tjpa.org/portaldtx) a while back and most news article are calling it that now. Should the article be moved and content reworded to account for this? Takikawa (talk) 16:59, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Takikawa: I would recommend starting a requested move. I would support the move, but a formal discussion is a good idea here. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 21:59, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the suggestion. I started looking into filing a request, but realized that The Portal is a disambiguation page and a new title as "The Portal" would need to be disambiguated. Since the current title naturally disambiguates, for now I am thinking I will just note the official project name in the article text. Takikawa (talk) 23:54, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Pi.1415926535: I'd be happy with starting the formal discussion, but I'm having trouble deciding on the parenthetical. Would something along the lines of "(transit project)" or "(San Francisco)" be appropriate? OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 05:50, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@OrdinaryScarlett: "San Francisco" seems best to me. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 06:02, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Pi.1415926535: Sounds good! OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 08:19, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
