1231:. I think the accent mark would be more accurate, though I'm not in a particular hurry to rename the article. (It's been years of delays; what's a couple extra weeks, right?) My comments above were in response to recent edits that removed every occurrence of the accent mark throughout the article, which I felt was an overcorrection even considering WP:COMMONNAME. I would encourage editors to avoid information loss in any quest for consistency. There's no prohibition against mentioning official or stylized names in article leads. BART even considered the inclusion of accent marks on its map to be notable enough to comment on it publicly. The worst that could happen with the status quo is that a reader perceives the article to be a bit inconsistent or sloppy, but at least they'll come away aware of the two spellings in use. – 805:(see attachment 6-B) sheds more light on it. We should find out in the coming week if VTA has actually missed the deadline. It says as of a BART/VTA meeting on Oct 1, VTA had 52 high priority issues to fix by Oct 20 in order to support opening the Berryessa extension by Dec 28. It also says BART will incur financial penalties, but does not say from which contract those come, if the extension doesn't open by Dec 28. So it appears both agencies are currently determined to make that date. I live near the BART line between the 2 new stations and see workers there every day and evening. A friend spotted a BART train at Berryessa Station last Wednesday as part of the testing. 439: 184: 90: 63: 251: 220: 100: 383: 32: 172: 403: 265: 1029:
overhead displays are programmed to always show destinations in all caps, which makes it unlikely that they'll add the accent mark even on the newer displays that have the resolution for it. But there's a chance the non-electronic, white-on-black destination signs or the 511-branded departure screens

is spelled with the diacritics but COMMONNAME dictates we don't use it. For the station, let us use the official spelling with the accent until enough sources arise to establish a COMMONNAME. On opening day, I plan to also see how it is spelled on train destination signs, with the caveat that I think

This article has seen some back and forth about whether "North San José" is part of the BART station name and whether it's spelled with an accent mark. I'm not interested in wading into a broader discussion about diacritics and common names, but just to be clear, the official station name is indeed

The official VTA website has not been updated, to reflect the latest project delay. The SJ Mercury has reported it was pushed back from late 2019 to 2020. BART and VTA are being coy about the actual project schedule, "trains probably won’t start taking passengers to those stations until sometime in

those signs are too ancient and/or do not have enough resolution (DPI) to correctly display the accent, particularly for the small indications used to show the next train's time rather than the large one used when a train with that destination is arriving.--

I don't have a particularly strong opinion yet, but leaning in favor of the double barrel (despite how much I hate the ridiculously long station names) and accent. Probably the best is to see what comes out over the next two weeks, particularly from BART.
1207: 711:; when deciding between versions of a word which differ in the use or non-use of modified letters, follow the general usage in reliable sources that are written in the English language (including other encyclopedias and reference works)." 875:
Another source of confusion is that, like the City of San José, BART is adhering to the typographical convention of omitting a diacritical mark from any capital letter, including when "San José" is printed in all caps.
197: 73: 867:
Part of the confusion is that the official station name was adopted fairly late in the process, so even the main entrance signage didn't include the smaller "NORTH SAN JOSE" until recently (compare with

referring more to maps and timetables and i suppose operator announcements (convention in addition to signage), but yes, that is very convenient labeling on the building itself in big letters.
869: 1414: 202: 1127:
Just because it has not opened yet does not necessarily mean a common name has not been established by reliable sources. And many of these sources still do not use the accent mark.
1409: 1419: 632: 1184:), still use "Berryessa/North San Jose" without the accent, use the shorten "Berryessa", or start to prefer VTA's "Berryessa Transit Center". Until then, this is premature. 1454: 1434: 343: 843: 839: 1429: 835: 1459: 1449: 1404: 162: 152: 942: 764: 1424: 1399: 1151:
And that seems likely to change once the new map and signage come into play. There will be substantial media coverage that day as well for sure.--
