I just left a comment at the Manhattan Bridge article. See my article on the 4Av line,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMT_Fourth_Avenue_Line
I have problems calling the tracks between DeKalb to or thru the Montague St tunnel as part of the 4Av line. --

Tracks in station
The article says:
"Until late April 1961, the station had only four tracks."
Not so. It was built with six tracks and has operated with six tracks since 1920. What was changed was the configuration of services and the location of major switching. --

Station's Line
This station is not a part of the BMT Broadway Line. The station is shared with the BMT Brighton Line, as well as the BMT Fourth Avenue Line. This can be considered a station complex, where the station is served by more than one line. The aparpriate title should be DeKalb Avenue (New York City Subway). --

(moved DeKalb Avenue (New York City Subway) to DeKalb Avenue (BMT Broadway Line): emergency exit info says "BMT Broadway Line"; also, must differentiate between this station and identically named station on the BMT Canarsie Line)
These do not seem like good reasons to me. The article on
New York City Subway chaining makes very clear that this station is not on the Broadway Line. The emergency exit sign could be an error, and isn't sufficiently weighty evidence unless backed up with something else. The ambiguity with
DeKalb Avenue (BMT Canarsie Line) could easily be resolved with a statement at the top of the article, "For the BMT Canarsie Line station, see...."
Having said that, I've a great respect for Larry V's contributions, and as the article has already been renamed once, we should make sure there's consensus before renaming it again.

move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
OpposeMOS:SLASH/
WP:SUBPAGE -- avoid slashes whenever possible, since they create problems with talk pages appearing as subpages, internet uses slashes to indicate subpaging, and it's bad form, when it's the disambiguator, it clearly isn't needed, there's nothing actually called "BMT Brighton / Fourth Avenue Lines", since this is an intersection of two lines, and not a particular identity in and of itself. One usually uses an "and" for such occassions. --

I agree with the problem, but not with the solution. There are several articles about NYC Subway stations serving more than one line each, and their names are:
So, the disambiguator is "New York City Subway." Also, there are other articles about stations serving more than one line each, and they need renaming:
My list of 5 articles is full. I want article names to be consistent with lines named in infoboxes. For example, the infobox of 96th Street shows the station as serving one line, therefore the article does not need renaming.
