[edit] Requested move (28 March 2006)

San Jose International Airport → San José International Airport – Correct spelling, relfecting the official web page ([1]) and Wikipedia's own usage (read the article, and see the article on the city: San José, California — Mareklug talk 05:20, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Furthermore, it is "San Jose Intl" in the ICAO list of airport codes.[3] Gene Nygaard 05:47, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose: Wikipedia policy is to prefer the common name San Jose International Airport -- ProveIt (talk) 06:02, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose: Please stop moving the article for no apparent reason. San Jose International Airport is the article name before January 2006 and is the most common usage. Furthermore, the official name is Norman Y. Mineta San José International Airport, if one wants to change to the official name.--Will74205 09:54, 28 March 2006 (UTC)Corrected --Will74205 12:10, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
Comment Actually, the correct spelling is Norman Y. Mineta San José International Airport;the letters è and é are not interchangeable. -- Mareklug talk 10:09, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose, per Gene. Jonathunder 03:30, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

Add any additional comments
  • IATA also lists it as "NORMAN Y. MINETA SAN JOSE INTERNATIONAL ARPT". [4] Gene Nygaard 06:02, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment : Suggest that verbalis/zing "San Jose" as {San Joe-say} is US/U.S.-centric. (Similarly, "Santa Fe" as {Santa Fay}, etc.)  "San José International Airport" seems less ambiguous (and also indicates the city's Spanish heritage). Regards, David Kernow 23:28, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Norman Y. Mineta San José International Airport → San Jose International Airport – Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names) copied from the entry on the WP:RM page

  • Support: It is general policy to prefer common names to official ones, especially in cases where the official name is rarely used. ProveIt (talk) 16:56, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Against: People had already discussed this last year. The move is unnecessary especially since the commonly used name already re-direct to this article. --Will74205 18:12, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article Move?

Should this be moved to Mineta San Jose International Airport? The media seems to include his name in it now. --Jiang 06:19, 11 Jan 2004 (UTC)

If the city has an accent mark in its name, does the airport? RickK 06:24, 11 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Let's just go by what its official website says. --Jiang 06:27, 11 Jan 2004 (UTC)

It does have an accent. --Jiang

No one calls the airport by its full name. Reverted the page move --Jiang 05:10, 30 May 2004 (UTC)

What do think a redirect page is for? --James Anatidae
no. It already redirects from Mineta San Jose International Airport and also from SJC Kgrr 07:13, 10 September 2005 (UTC)

I think the article name should reflect the official name of the airport, and have all previous names redirect to the new page. --Will74205 05:56, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

I propose we move the page to San Jose International Airport since that is what people call it. ProveIt (talk) 15:27, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

  • In this case I would say the common name "San Jose International Airport" takes precedent.Gateman1997 05:42, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pictures?

Can someone post exterior and/or interior pictures of Terminal A and C? Construction pictures of the North Concourse would be good also. --Will74205 05:53, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Last time I was there, there wasn't really anything going on at all in terms of the construction of the North Concourse. It was just a fenced off area with construction trucks and whatnot. They've closed gate A1C, though, and when I go there, it's a nighttime. --User:butterfly0fdoom 16:43, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
