List of Lynx bus routes (Orlando)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

WP:NOTDIR and not encyclopedic. No indication anywhere that these are notable routes and neither is the group as a set. Asher Heimermann (talk)


 * You did not date your post, notify the author, transclude the AfD to the log page where AfD participants and admins can find this (which has resulted in this being up for 17 days without any participation, closure or relisting), categorize or delsort the AfD or add any of the AfD templates onto this page. you may want to consider using WP:TW as this will do all of the above for you.

 * Keep Per WP:5P, Wikipedia is a gazetteer which lists geographical information. I would call a listing of bus routes geographical information and not a travel guide. We have plenty of lists of bus routes on Wikipedia as both standalone articles and subsections of the transit agency. As long as these lists are sourced there is no issue in having them and deleting such lists would leave a gap in coverage.  Dough   4872   12:02, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
 * This article doesn't serve as a list of geographical information though. It's a list of bus routes which are not permanent features and essentially products of cities' transport authorities. The only source in this article is the official website, and there are no secondary sources that validate this article's notability. Also just because some lists of bus routes exist, doesn't mean inherently, other lists should. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Ajf773 (talk) 09:57, 28 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete as per WP:NOTDIRECTORY. This is just a list of non-notable bus routes and all the notable information about the bus routes are already mentioned in Lynx (Orlando). Suonii180 (talk) 12:14, 27 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete as unencyclopedic per WP:NOTDIR. A summary of how many routes, the cities/counties where routes exit is fine but to have an entire article about non-notable bus routes is unacceptable. Routes change often, some are detoured and some are added and removed within weeks or months. The system has a route listing and map. Also see WP:NOTTRAVEL.

 * Delete per nom. I'm appreciative to Dough4872's argument how bus routes could be geographical information, to the extent that they make certain areas traversable and connect regions, cities etc., but in this case I find that there is nothing very specific about these bus routes compared to other means of transport, meaning they don't really have meaning in a geographical sense. — Alalch Emis (talk) 18:04, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTDIR....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:44, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Note: Please see deletion discussion here. The nominator is on a crusade of bad-faith WP:IDL deletion nominations, each lacking policy-based arguments, lacking even a shred of prior discussion over whether the list articles in general have merit, and taking the offense against each keep voter's arguments. ɱ  (talk) 03:16, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Check the editing history of this AfD. The article was nominated by someone else. They didn't transclude it properly so I fixed it for them. Ajf773 (talk) 09:24, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
