Unremarkable bus route TheLongTone (talk) 13:03, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

:Keep I am seeing quite a lot of results from my Google search. When I have time I will sieve out which ones are reliable and which are not. In addition, it is likely that there are many results offline.--Launchballer 13:17, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

::My google search revealed nothing other than routine stuff which one would expect from any bus route that actually exists. Two at least are lifted from Wikipedia.TheLongTone (talk) 13:26, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

:Comment I might be able to dig up some (offline) bits on this. Not sure if I will be able to do it within a week though. If the outcome is delete, would it be possible to userfy to my userspace please? – Thx in advance. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 16:02, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

• Delete per precedent. WE culled hosts of artilces on bus routes some time ago. This one evidently slipped through the net. Peterkingiron (talk) 20:09, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
• Keep - This is totally different to what we culled last year, Google brings up heaps of stuff with this, I admit it needs tidying up and better sourcing but that can all be fixed. →Davey2010→→Talk to me!→ 20:34, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
• Delete - bus routes are inherently non-notable. They can be created, cancelled, or changed at a moment's notice. They're similar to airline flights, but even less notable. -Zanhe (talk) 03:06, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

::It being cancelled would have no bearing on the article, And it's unlikely to be changed either. →Davey2010→→Talk to me!→ 03:34, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

• Keep. Long-standing, survivor of the well-used Green Line coach route that once linked three of London's airports. — | Gareth Griffith-Jones |The WelshBuzzard| — 12:13, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
• Keep for reasons above Ibsiadkgneoeb (talk) 23:48, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
• Delete or merge and redirect to Green Line. Per WP:PRODUCT products and services should be covered on the service provider's page. There is no need or reason for this to have its own page and per WP:NOTGUIDE and WP:NOTTRAVEL we do not need route maps and lists of stops, e.g. buscruft.--Charles (talk) 08:29, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
• Keep per Gareth Griffith-Jones aycliffe^talk 12:35, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

:This seems to be stating simply that it should be kept because it is a bus route.TheLongTone (talk) 13:15, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

::Nope, We're (well perhaps I) saying it should be kept because it's encyclopedic and has quite alot of history behind it :) →Davey2010→→Talk to me!→ 14:20, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

:::That does not mean it needs a standalone article.--Charles (talk) 17:26, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

• Delete. Does not seem notable to be, and the precedent seems to suggest that such articles are deemed by the community to be non-worthy. Z10987 (talk) 01:42, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

::Except it is notable and we've kept routes like this quite alot. →Davey2010→→Talk to me!→ 08:02, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

• Comment Unlike rail lines (which are inherently notable), this is a bus line, some of which are notable, and some of which aren't (like in New York City Bus). If there's a relevant "list of Green Line Coaches bus routes" page, I will vote merge. Otherwise, I will vote keep, as the route isn't exactly notable in the sense that it's on the news every day, but it's used often enough that there should preferably be an article on the route.
