List of Milwaukee County Transit System bus routes

 * – ( 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. Ajf773 (talk) 09:12, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom - Last I checked we weren't a brochure and this list helps no one except those travelling in the area who want to know which bus to catch. There's nothing encyclopedic about bus routes. Fails NOTDIR and GNG. – Davey 2010 Talk 11:46, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete as unencyclopedic per WP:NOTDIR. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 23:30, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete as unencyclopedic. Could be kept if and only if each of these routes have independent notability in their own right. Currently there is barely any independent notability of any route. JackFromReedsburg (talk &#124; contribs) 13:06, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete Only one source in the article isn't using a source from the transit system's website...which I would always go to rather than a Wikipedia article that always is subject to be out of date day-to-day. NOTDIR.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 21:33, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge back into parent article The article is very dense, especially the description of former bus routes, but with trims made, this should be placed back into the parent article. This isn't the only transit system Wikipedia article that has a table of its bus routes. It's not notable enough to stand on its own, so it should be merged back. Albeit the sources are predominantly from one place, the transit system is currently going through a redesign, which has numerous citations. This article, along with the list of its fleet, were recently forked because they were too dense in the parent article. As long as this article is trimmed, it should be moved back into its parent.Jacobi Jackson (talk) 04:03, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment It was forked without consensus by one editor; I see nothing on the MCTS page about splitting this out, nor any opinion the article was 'too dense'. I'm tired of re-merges under the argument of 'it's too much for the main article'. If it's 'too much' for the main article, learn to write more succinctly so it never becomes an issue.
