Talk:Coastliner 700

Reference valid, or not?
It is being claimed that is a valid reference for the sentence "The service operates along the South coast, stopping at several landmarks, among which are Brighton Pavilion and Chichester Cathedral." The reference makes no mention of Coastliner 700, and certainly doesn't say that it stops at Brighton Pavilion and Chichester Cathedral. It does mention that those two landmarks are in Sussex, but similarly it mentions numerous other landmarks, at which the route does not stop. In my view, therefore, the ref fails the requirements of WP:RS: "Sources should directly support the information as it is presented in an article, and should be appropriate to the claims made."

What are the views of other editors? - David Biddulph (talk) 16:20, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
 * This is exactly why I've tagged that section as original research, both the Birdman and Caravan references are used in the same way. If sources can't be found that cite these events/landmarks as relevant to the route then the section should be deleted. Stuart.Jamieson (talk) 16:27, 6 February 2012 (UTC)


 * I agree with that, but also assert that the website in question is a piece of crap. It is amateurish and should not be trusted as a reliable source. If that means taking it to WP:RSN then so be it. Of course, if the article gets deleted following the AfD then the point becomes moot.... --Bob Re-born (talk) 16:28, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Which is very unlikely, as nobody has actually !voted for deletion in the AfD, all the arguments are either for keeping or against those, without actually !voting for delete. How can it not be notable it its own right?  Rcsprinter  (tell me stuff)  16:39, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't have a problem with removing the source for not supporting the text, which is an entirely different and far more valid reason than the originally provided one. Deletion of this article actually wouldn't make the point moot at all, since we're using that website as a source in multiple higher-importance articles like Sussex and Chichester. That's why an RSN discussion would make sense since its reliability has never been challenged before. Alzarian16 (talk) 23:12, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

Update the article a bit?
I reckon this Wiki page should be more accurate. I would edit this Wikipedia page but I am kinda busy with work, however here is my ideas.

1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coastliner_700#:~:text=Mondays%20to%20Saturdays%3B%20the%20service%20runs%20every%2020%20minutes%20on%20Sundays The Coastliner 700 doesn't run every 12 minutes or nether does 20 mins on a Sunday, the 700 is all split up. Please check the image that I've added.

2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coastliner_700#:~:text=Vehicles%5Bedit,9%5D%5B11%5D This one should definitely be updated with better wording, do you think? Tesco21 (talk) 20:08, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
