M4 Bus Route

I'd argue that very few bus routes, if any, are encyclopedic. I don't see how this one is any different from dozens of others in NYC, and countless others elsewhere in the world. Wikipedia is not a bus schedule. CDC (talk) 00:02, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - as above. --Orelstrigo 00:29, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, I hope WP never gets to the point where every bus schedule in the friggin' world is listed. --Deadcorpse 02:28, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)
• delete. why was this added? Avriette 03:41, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Wouldn't this become out-of-date rather quickly anyway? I doubt someone would be quite bored enough to update this article every time this route changes. android↔talk 04:50, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)
• Condense into a line or two and merge into something. --SPUI (talk) 05:11, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, agreed with other arguments. Bus routes aren't encyclopedic. Mgm|^(talk) 10:01, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. When I saw the title I thought it was goiing to be about the bus lane on the M4 Motorway in the UK, and was poised to suggest a redirect to there. However, just as you should never judge a book by its cover, you should neve judge a Wikipedia article by its title. Thryduulf 16:52, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete since individual bus routes are not encyclopedic. I could support a list of bus routes in New York, but not an individual article about each of them. Sjakkalle 06:30, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, since nothing in this articlec is worth merging into a wider article about New York buses. Chris 21:30, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, transitory, un-encyclopedic. -- Dcfleck 15:10, 2005 Apr 3 (UTC)
