: Hmmm, how about moving and leaving the redirects behind? And creating redirects where they're missing? [[User:Axpde|'''a'''×'''p'''_de]][[User Talk:Axpde|^Hello!]] 20:14, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

Compare:
{{bsq|RP2oWa}} ''vs'' {{bsq|hRP2oWaq}} and
{{bsq|RP2oWe}} ''vs'' {{bsq|hRP2oWeq}}. [[User:Useddenim|Useddenim]] ([[User_talk:Useddenim|talk]])14:14, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

(And compare either with {{BS-q|hRP2oW}}.) -- [[User:Tuvalkin|Tuválkin]] [[User talk:Tuvalkin|✉]] 15:28, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

:Good question. While I confess that I didnt introduce that naming incongruence on purpose, both approaches can be argued for and have analogous cases in track icons, such as {{BS-q|exhACCa}} ''vs.'' {{BS-q|BRÜCKEa}}.

−
:I would favour always using "h", even in situations that it is a pleaonasm ("o" already indicates a bridge and "a"/"e" that it extends), unless there’s a good reason not to.

::Well, I'm of the opinion that the simpler approach would have been to make {{BS-q|BRÜCKEa}} into a h- name instead {{bsq|hSTRa}}. Indeed now that RPx is no longer the base root used for rail-road crossing the -oW suffix is mostly superfluous: if we substitute RPx for STR, these icons are (on the pattern of {{bs-q|hWSTR}}):

−
::*{{bsq|RP2oWa}} → {{bsq|hWRP2a}} ({{bs-q|WBRÜCKEa}} → {{bs-q|hWSTRa}} and so on)

−
::*{{bsq|RP2oWe}} → {{bsq|hWRP2e}}

−
::*{{bsq|hRP2oWaq}} → {{bsq|hWRP2aq}}

−
::*{{bsq|hRP2oWeq}} → {{bsq|hWRP2eq}}

−
::*{{bsq|hRP2oW}} → {{bsq|hWRP2}}
