Wikipedia is not a travel guide. It is not clear that this article could ever be particularly useful to people interested in taking a bus to or from Southampton, given that one would have to refer to the bus company's web site to confirm that the bus service still exists, what days it runs, what time it runs, and where to get on the bus. Similar pages such as List of bus routes in Bury St. Edmunds & Newmarket have been deleted. Wilbysuffolk (Talk to me!) 17:43, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete, Transwiki to Wikivoyage or wikia, or otherwise remove from Wikipedia. This is not a suitable subject for a encyclopaedia, and whilst Wikipedia may have aspects of almanacs or gazetteers these should exist as a means to index encyclopaedic content and help readers find that content. Wikipedia is also not a directory (of routes) or a travel guide (explaining how to get to bus stop B from bus stop A) The list is currently unsourced and likely to only be sourceable to primary sources, even if some of these primary sources are independent - This does not provide evidence that the subject is notable and meet the GNG.

 * Delete as non-notable and impossible to maintain using reliable third party sources. An article on Buses in Hampshire would be entirely appropriate however. Blue Square Thing (talk) 21:08, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete as no references or sources, not notable neither Davey 2010   Talk  02:34, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
