– Lowercase is the usual convention for stations in most countries, so fix these to be like the hundreds of others in Category:Seoul metro station stubs with them. Three of these stubs are unsourced, two still have over-capitalized section headings such as "Station Layout", yet they have all been moved back and forth between cases a couple of times already, without discussion beyond the small group at Talk:Achasan station#Requested move 20 January 2018 that closed in favor of lowercase for Korean train stations.

Oppose as WP:PROPERNOUN and WP:COMMONNAME. Korail's train stations always includes "Station" (역) in their signboards in which 역 are never pronounced separately. A more relevant RM should be Talk:Seoul Station#Requested move 2 May 2020 for train stations as supposed to Seoul Metro's subway stations which clearly doesn't includes 역. — 🧧🍊 Paper9oll 🍊🧧 (🔔 • 📝) 13:20, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The sign at the platform suggests that the 역 or "Station" are not needed to name the station. Dicklyon (talk) 11:49, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The signboard at the Geumchon Station's entrance suggested other, the same for the remaining proposed. — 🧧🍊 Paper9oll 🍊🧧 (🔔 • 📝) 12:00, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support lower case. That's the way WP does it. Tony (talk) 08:07, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per Paper9oll's comments, who also makes a good point about the Seoul Station RM which addressed this very issue and was uppercased. Randy Kryn (talk) 14:49, 12 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
