List of bus routes in Kolkata

Prod contested by an IP without an edit summary. Wikipedia is not a travel guide or a directory; the lack of any sources at all for the list (particularly secondary sources) tells its own story. Many such similar lists have been deleted - see Special:PrefixIndex/Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of bus routes in. BencherliteTalk 09:28, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete I created this article when I was trying to clean up the Indian districts pages... just moved stuff over. That was early in my editing days... if it were now, I would have just deleted that content. PhnomPencil (talk) 18:34, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete per above and nom. WP:NORDIR seems to apply here. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:07, 17 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete per precedent of deleting all equivalent English articles. The routesa re changed periodically, so that any such article would require regular maintenance, which we cannot guarantee.  Bus info differs from train and tram info, because it is not easy to move rails, but easy to drive a bus down a differnet road.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:30, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Per WP:NOTDIR Beside, the constant reappearing of the same links to disambiguation pages (Science City, Technopolis, Dalhousie, Dunlop, Hazra etc.) gives me the idea that the main editor has no clue about proper linking. The Banner talk 13:55, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
