Change name to "Train"

The DP20 commercial refers to the series as "Train" (列車). Considering that "Railway" is a made-up name for the series, don't you think "Train" would be more appropriate now?BerserkerPhantom (talk • contribs) 00:29, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

If a commercial refers to it as "Train", it'd definitely be more appropriate, and it's certainly the more commonly used name. It's worth noting however that "Railway" is an official term too; Anna's deck was initially described as a Railway deck. Sanokal K-T (talk • contribs) 01:05, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

If the commercial called it train, then I agree the page can should be renamed. But I’d we should leave a redirect for "Railway" and and introduce the page like... "Train (also officially refered to as railway) is a series of train-themed EARTH Machine monsters introduced in Galactic Overlord." or somethin along that line. With it being officially refered to as railway in ZEXAL we don’t wanna one time hen relavence of that term. GoldenDragonRider (talk • contribs) 02:26, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

From what I'm getting, "Train" is how it's addressed in the Japanese commercial (and never in English). "Railway" is how it is addressed in English, right? From the anime, is it? If that's the case, should stay at "Railway", because that's how it is referred to, officially, in English. Official English names take precedence over official Japanese names. In any case redirects from one to another are legit. Becasita ^Pendulum (talk • contribs) 12:46, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

In this video from Jerome McHale, which we're also potentially using as reference for the TCG name of what is currently Infinite Ignition, he refers to the series as "Rank 10 Trains", though he does say they're "colloquially referred to" as such. So that would be an example of an official English source using "Train" to refer to the theme. AlphaKretin (talk • contribs) 04:05, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

This Konami article refers to the series as Trains as well. I support the move, with a note about it also being called Railway (if it ever even was, I don't remember that from the dub or English games, but it's been a while). Golden Key (talk • contribs) 04:43, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

This video's title calls them Railway while the video itself notes the colloquial name of "Rank 10 Trains". Similarly, the above article calls them Trains in the title, but immediately follows up with stating the colloquial name of "Rank 10 Trains". I'm in favour of keeping both names on the page and as redirects, while also adding Rank 10 Trains to it, since Konami has acknowledged that as the name it's most known by. I have no strong feelings on which one is the title of the page itself, however. Burnpsy (talk • contribs) 08:40, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
