For article names of Chinese railways, the full name of the railway (i.e. both terminal cities) should always be spelled out, rather than merely the two character abbreviation. When the abbreviations are transliterated into English, essential identifying information is lost. E.g.
The list goes on and on. Many English readers may be unfamiliar with one-character abbreviations of certain Chinese cities and provinces. So Yu for Chongqing, Hu for Shanghai, Jiu for Kowloon adds to the confusion. For consistency and clarity, Wikipedia article names of Chinese railways should always feature the full names. In-article references can use abbreviated names. The only exception may be the Longhai Line, which has become a two-character word in itself. ContinentalAve ( talk) 17:40, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

– Per WP:NC-CHINA, railway names whose characters represent abbreviations of city names should be written with the full city names in English. I've tried to perform this move but it won't work because the redirect page exists. I must be missing something because as simply a redirect page it should still work. –Nav talk to me or sign my guestbook 22:01, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
