METRO (Minnesota) → Metro (Minnesota) – MOS:CAPS/MOS:TM this should not be in allcaps, it is not an acronym 70.24.250.235 (talk) 06:15, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support, speedy move and close - this should be completely uncontroversial. Since it is a redlink suggest next editor simply moves and closes. In ictu oculi (talk) 23:58, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Although it is operated by Metro Transit, the name used for this system does appear to be METRO. We could argue that it's just a brand, but that's certainly what they call it,[1] so I'm not sure it could be labelled entirely uncontroversial. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:55, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Metro v.s. METRO

Seems like this article has been recently renamed as "Metro (Minnesota)". While I understand that the word 'Metro' is obviously not an acronym, but considering that this is a branding--thus a proper noun--I would like to argue that we should follow the system operator's (Metro Transit) marketing and branding scheme. Metro Transit's website and printed materials always call the system a "METRO" network, not "Metro". Any thought? Suggestion? Jonathanahn (talk) 21:26, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am confused. We have two systems both claiming to be the primary supplier in Minneapolis. I give up. -SusanLesch (talk) 23:19, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It should be reviewed to determine if it is compliant with this project's non-free content policy, or else should be deleted and removed from this page. If no action is taken, it will be deleted after 7 days. Commons fair use upload bot (talk) 01:35, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I uploaded that file to this page to represent the current state of the Metro system (with the addition of the A and C lines, per the article). Straight from https://www.metrotransit.org/metro, as was the earlier (light-rail only) version. If I do it again, the bot will delete it again, right? How do I overcome the bot? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dabigtrain (talk • contribs) 16:11, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
