Talk:Erie Metropolitan Transit Authority

Assessment
I feel that the article is borderline between start-class and B-class. It skirts along meeting each of the criteria of a Start:
 * a particularly useful picture or graphic
 * ''The icon is of course necessary given that it is the defining symbol of the organisation and the historical image is interesting, but I do not particularly feel that either truly adds to the article. I recommend some images of current equipment as well as a route map.


 * multiple links that help explain or illustrate the topic
 * ''Appears to be good use of wikilinks, but all 3 external links are for the same general website. I recommend finding some other external links (though I admit that may be difficult given the subject) and perhaps some See Also links, if any can be found which would be applicable; or if certain wikilinks stand out as being particularly vital.  Additionally, the article would benefit from some additional references (particularly when it comes to History sections) -- which should be modified to a more standard format.


 * a subheading that fully treats an element of the topic
 * ''I suppose the routes cannot be expanded much further, barring the addition of any more routes.


 * multiple subheadings that indicate material that could be added to complete the article
 * ''The history is relatively short. Transport companies are rife with history -- you just need to find it :)  I recommend checking with the local tourist office, library, or perhaps even with EMTA itself.  These organisations often have at least one history buff whom may be able to provide a slew of hardcopy references or at least send you to a place that has them.

Hope that helps. Sláinte! --Bossi ( talk ;; contribs ) 02:40, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

New Buses
EMTA recently acquired a slew of new buses (they put them on the roads as of March 20, 2009). I've seen them on the following routes: 25/30, 26/M4, 29. These look like newer versions of the Gilligs that they currently have. As far as I know they are numbered in the 0900's and are CNG buses. They feature a new paint scheme, similar to the previous paint scheme. The main picture of the article should be updated as well as the facts about how many CNG buses EMTA has, I don't really have the time or resources to do this plus I'm not very familiar with the editing side of Wikipedia, sorry.
