I have been some work on the cleanup list for WikiProject Bristol and some bus articles are included, which are outside my areas of expertise:

Mostly copy-pasting from what I posted on the London bus article
As someone who likes making bus edits to articles and I guess related to wikiproject buses (I just made this account today after doing it with an ip for some time), would it be possible for you guys to help participate in the discussion about the possible deletion of the List of MCTS (Milwaukee County Transit System) articles here?
/info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_MCTS_Bus_Routes
So if some of you do decide to do that, i'd appreciate it. I was just going to start off saying, how other bus articles weren't deleted and discussed and link to some of them, like these ones the London guys had in the last decade. And then I would probably say that it does need more work but it is making good progress. So that was just my thoughts and i'd appreciate it (as a bit related to wikiproject buses) if it would be possible to help contribute to the discussion about the deletion of a possible bus route article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Coolbird942 ( talk • contribs) 13:03, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

Would anyone here mind taking a look at Oakland Coliseum station in reference to the bus information on there. I am currently having disagreement with Pi.1415926535 on the necessity of the bus service table and the usage of the airport logo in the article.
For the past couple of months, I have been adding information to the article using other articles about rail-bus interchanges that also have bus service tables for reference, including a couple of good articles like Coney Island–Stillwell Avenue and Flushing–Main Street. My primary motivation for adding this information is my knowledge on the subject, in addition to AC Transit officially establishing the Oakland Coliseum station as a major bus station/transit center ( Source). The Oakland Coliseum station is in a low-income/high-density neighborhood that heavily utilizes all forms of public transportation (as is the norm for low-income/high-density neighborhoods), and the 12 bus routes that serve Oakland Coliseum carry over 2.5 Million Passengers a year combined (The rail stations in the complex see a little over 2.6 Million Passengers a year for comparison). The idea of bus tables being too excessive hasn't really been enforced on the other articles that I referred to in editing this article, so why is it necessarily being strictly enforced on this particular article?
A concern I also have is that Pi.1415926535 is removing the information simply for aesthetic reasons without taking the actual informative content that he would be removing into account. If I am in the wrong I will be more than glad to remove the table, but I think that my edits have certainly been informative and relevant to the subject, and are in line with many other articles on here about bus-rail interchanges.

The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.
Portals are being redesigned.
The new design features are being applied to existing portals.
At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{ Transclude lead excerpt}}.
The discussion about this can be found here.
Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members here, noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.
On April 8th, 2018, an RfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.
Since the reboot, the Portals WikiProject has been busy building tools and components to upgrade portals.
So far, 84 editors have joined.
If you would like to keep abreast of what is happening with portals, see the newsletter archive.
If you have any questions about what is happening with portals or the Portals WikiProject, please post them on the WikiProject's talk page.
Thank you. — The Transhumanist 07:28, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Some bus articles seem to have an excessive number of images. While in larger articles like AEC Routemaster and Volvo B10M, multiple images are appropriate to break up the text and illustrate features mentioned in the text, it does seem an overkill in smaller articles. In East Lancs European and Wright StreetCar we have images that are sandwiching the text, and in Alexander ALX400 and Wright Crusader, multiple images of the same thing in gallery format. Do we really need a front and rear image on every chassis type a body was fitted to? For mine, a single image in the infobox with a commons gallery link is a better way.
Can understand a gallery may be beneficial in a shorter article to illustrate features mentioned in the text, but does having multiple images of fundamentally the same thing add any encyclopedic value? It seems these images are being shoehorned in, which goes against image policy that states:
A gallery is not a tool to shoehorn images into an article, and a gallery consisting of an indiscriminate collection of images of the article subject should generally either be improved in accordance with the below paragraphs or moved to Wikimedia Commons
And a bit further on the policy states:
A gallery section may be appropriate in some Wikipedia articles if a collection of images can illustrate aspects of a subject that cannot be easily or adequately described by text or individual images. Just as we seek to ensure that the prose of an article is clear, precise and engaging, galleries should be similarly well-crafted. Gallery images must collectively add to the reader's understanding of the subject without causing unbalance to an article or section within an article while avoiding similar or repetitive images, unless a point of contrast or comparison is being made.
Likewise, are images of the rears of buses notable? Sure they all have one, but with no mention in the text or not differing from one bus to the next, they are the notable enough to need illustrating. In the case of New Routemaster, yes as it is discussed in the article and relatively novel for a 21st century bus, but in the case of Alexander ALX500 or East Lancs Myllennium Lowlander they are bog standard, so can't see a need to illustrate.
Thought it best to discuss here to gather more opinions than would be generated on individual articles. 46.233.116.138 ( talk) 20:51, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
My view at the moment, after reading the discussion so far, is that
I'm a bit conflicted with regards to, for bus bodywork articles, whether there should be images for each chassis type. It comes down to whether there are significant differences - for the ALX400, is there really a significant difference between these 3 images:
Yes, there are differences, but are these significant enough to warrant a picture? (the rear window option appears not to be chassis related - DLA's have had several variants, cf 1, 2, 3) And do people generally agree with my first 2 points? ~~ OxonAlex - talk 15:39, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

Would someone from this WikiProject mind taking a look at this article and assessing it. I tried to clean up some of the formatting, etc., but there's still probably more that needs to be done.

Would someone mind please making the following changes to the "Citylink (Idaho)" page? Background: Citylink is actually the name of two organizations, Citylink North and Citylink South. We have two separate websites... Citylink North is located at https://www.kcgov.us/486/Transit-Services. Citylink South as a defunct site, which they are currently rebuilding (but it's sort of serviceable for now): https://idahocitylink.com/ My suggestion for a short recap of the two organizations and services provided is as follows (for disclosure I work for Citylink North but work closely with Citylink South as well): "Citylink is a partnership of public transportation services in parts of Kootenai and Benewah counties in Idaho. Citylink North, operated by Kootenai County, operates three bus routes in urbanized areas of Kootenai County, including the cities of Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls, Hayden, Dalton Gardens, and Huetter, Idaho. The A, B, and C routes all originate and terminate at the Riverstone Transit Center. Citylink North operates six days per week with three routes, as well as a paratransit and senior ride program. South of the Coeur d'Alene urban area, the Link Route provides connections with the local Citylink bus routes leaving from the Riverstone Transit Center, as well as regional routes that connect at the Coeur d'Alene Casino. The Plummer Express Route provides direct service between Coeur d'Alene and Plummer. Citylink South is under the authority of the Coeur d'Alene Tribe.

Hi friends, Davey2010 removed an interior photo of an O405NH which I placed... whilst the replacement edit of the bus itself had no issue, I figured that if we show the interior/rear photos of all buses photographed, then we can make the articles more comprehensive. I would like your thoughts on that, as the bus area is not of my greatest expertise, so I can't really have a comment to make. If silent responses, then I'll assume ok, as I do not know what is best for that section. -- EurovisionNim (talk to me) (see my edits) 03:21, 12 July 2021 (UTC)

This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows ( full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to
report bugs and
request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a
"news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none
parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at
Wikipedia talk:Article alerts. Message sent by
User:Addbot to all active wiki projects per request, Comments on the message and bot are welcome

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like
John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.
)and turns it into something like
It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{ cite web}}, {{ cite journal}} and {{ doi}}.
The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.
Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Hi all, I've created quite a few bus route articles now that are contained within
Category:Bus routes in England and
Category:Bus routes in Scotland. For lack of a consistent naming scheme when I started, I went with (route number) (start point)–(end point)
. If the route has a "brand name" I would use that instead, for example
D1 Denby Darts or
X7 Coastrider. I like this format as it's immediately clear what route the article discusses and name clashes are very unlikely (unlike with say
Stagecoach X5 as there is another X5 that runs between Workington and Penrith). I was away to rename
Harrogate bus route 36 but thought I should consult first before I mess about with existing pages. Please share your thoughts

Although destination points can help with clarity, I really think its case by case. A lot of routes start and end at the same place but have different paths. In an ideal world, descriptive names referring to the path the route follows would be given, but unfortunately this seems to have become uncommon. Ultimately the convention holds that names are not descriptions - maybe it would be helpful to add what a person is known for to their article title, but that information could make the site more unwieldy to work with and wikilinks less simple and so on.
I've been using Wikidata to tie descriptive information about bus routes to their names/articles. That way it should at least be possible to query them based on a variety of attributes beyond the scope of a name/title Middle river exports ( talk) 18:26, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
For what it's worth also, your articles do have a decent number of secondary sources. I reckon the outcomes of AfDs regarding bus routes tends to be incongruent with other transportation modes. Individual articles for highway routes tend to stay even if they have minimal significance, and the fact that a number of routes predate roads that have articles or influenced the design of many roads substantially seems to be something people aren't very attuned to. I think it's likely that bus route articles are held to more scrutiny due to many Wikipedians' unfamiliarity with the topic in general. Middle river exports ( talk) 18:33, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi all, having a big go at working on some routemaps for some major bus route articles. A problem raised when I made my first one - Template:EastRider X46/X47 - was that maybe the two routes that largely follow the same roads need clarifying at their divergence point, see below:

How can I, following route diagram MOS, clarify these two almost-identical lines between Beverley Road and the University of Hull, or is the distinction clear enough for the average reader? An idea suggested by another user is for two separate lines of the same colour, but I'm not sure whether that'd be overkill for just three stops. I can't just, say, do:
A1079 X46 only
University of Hull X47 only
Cottingham X47 only
etc.
That does come off as a bit clunky, and I don't think that'd work for longer splits like this. But I open the floor to debate. What's the best way of clarifying it? Hullian111 ( talk) 20:33, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
Until now there has seemed to be no progress on giving shuttle buses their very own article. I have decided to changed it by creating a draft at Draft:Shuttle bus the draft is still incomplete however you can speed up its completion by giving the article improvements.
Note I used british english to make the article, I live in Australia however I decided to use british english primarily because I wanted to use either british or american as those are the main two and british english is more similar to Australian English . This very well may change and until the draft is fully approved I will create a discussion for which english will be used for the article. NotOrrio ( talk) 10:11, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

Recently there has been some dispute on various articles as to how images should be placed. Many bus articles ahave been overloaded by some overly enthusiastic editors who feel that as many as possible should be jammed in. This goes against a number of sections of policy and the manual of style.
Photographs or media files with no accompanying text. If you are interested in presenting a picture, please provide an encyclopedic context, or consider adding it to Wikimedia Commons.In other words we shouldn't be filling articles with multiple images, we have commons galleries for that.
A gallery is not a tool to shoehorn images into an article, and a gallery consisting of an indiscriminate collection of images of the article subject should generally either be improved in accordance with the below paragraphs or moved to Wikimedia Commons.It also states
Generally, a gallery or cluster of images should not be added so long as there is space for images to be effectively presented adjacent to text.
Most images should be on the right side of the page, which is the default placement. Left-aligned images may disturb the layout of bulleted lists and similar structures that depend on visual uniformity, e.g. by pushing some items on such lists further inward. Hence, avoid left-aligned images near such structures.It also states
Multiple images can be staggered right and left. However, avoid sandwiching text between two images that face each other; or between an image and infobox, navigation template, or similar.In other words no line should ever have: image, text, infobox or image, text, image. There should only be one section of text and one image, either left or right on each line.
A lot of the problems are occurring by too many images being added into articles that are not long enough to accommodate them, because the infobox is longer than the text the image on the left, causing sandwiching, e.g. Plaxton Cheetah, Volvo B7L, Wright Renown. The image on the left needs to be removed so there is only the infobox image, e.g. Plaxton Leopard, Volvo B13R, Wright Solar Fusion.
Likewise articles should not have images immediately opposite each other in the text section, e.g. Northern CountiesPalatine, Plaxton Premiere.
Examples of articles that are fully complaint are Alexander Dennis Enviro400 MMC, Volvo Super Olympian, Wright StreetDeck.
If editors disagree with the manual of styles and policies, they are free to make the case for changing them on the relevant talk pages, but until then we should be adhering to them and not coming up with excuses to ignore them. Kermelei ( talk) 01:22, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

Just to keep you all informed in case you are heavily involved in sourcing bus news online (i.e. like I do), routeone magazine have redesigned their website. This has given it quite a swish new homepage, I will admit, which now gives you the ability to subscribe to certain sections of the website, however it has come with the side effect that a lot of news articles from ~2015 to early 2017 have just been deleted from the site. Articles that date to before October 2020, meanwhile, have also lost their images and publication dates, which now default back to October 29 2020 - for example, this article.
Thankfully, the site administrators haven't changed the URLs linking to the articles in any fashion, so articles that have been lost should, hopefully, be easily be found by copying the URL into sites like archive.org or any other equivalent - e.g. this archive link, which originally linked to here.
Keep that in mind if you also heavily rely on the site for citations. Might be worth an effort to to pick a random Wikipedia article using routeone citations, hop on the Wayback Machine and see if you can rescue any cites that might have been lost in the site update.
