Downtown San Jose stationDowntown San José station – The diacritical mark appears over "José" in official BART and VTA publications, including on the official BART system map effective June 2020, which is by far the most prominent published work mentioning this station by a proper name, at least for now. The diacritical mark would also be consistent with Berryessa/North San José station. Minh Nguyễn 💬 18:31, 13 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Mildly Agree: Well, right now, the media appears to not be applying diacritics [1] [2] and indeed the sign on the front of the "BERRYESSA NORTH SAN JOSE" station doesn't even have one [3], even though the new BART map does. Tough call though. Wikipedia:Diacritical marks seems to be neutral on the subject, but Wikipedia:Article titles says the official title is ok as long as ample redirects are provided. It's really really unlikely to cause confusion. Mjdestroyerofworlds (talk) 20:37, 13 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Mjdestroyerofworlds: BART is following the City of San José's convention of including the accent mark in most signage but omitting the accent mark in all caps. [4] Neither the Chronicle article nor the Mercury News article is referring to the downtown station by name, only descriptively. See Talk:Berryessa/North San José station#Official station name for more discussion that led to the Berryessa station's article title to regain its accent mark. – Minh Nguyễn 💬 21:35, 13 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Mxn: Omitting diacritics on capital letters is not just their convention, but the one used by most western European languages (French does it as well).--Jasper Deng (talk) 19:42, 17 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Jasper Deng: Right, I just meant that the City of San José follows that convention (and doesn't really do much to educate the public about it). – Minh Nguyễn 💬 20:18, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
