== Regarding the 15 bus route list pages you nominated for deletion ==

In all of your nominations you have said that wikipedia is not a travel guide, and that those pages would fit on wikivoyage. I find two main problems with this reasoning; that is to say that wikivoyage does not accept bus route lists on that site, they have comprehensive coverage of travel using prose. ]. If we were to include them there, they would be deleted swiftly from wikivoyage also. I hope you did your research before nominating those articles; we have already covered this on the WikiProject Buses talk page. You would know not to include that on all your nomination statements.

Latterly, these pages are not using wikipedia as a travel guide. Are they? Look closely. I can't see anything giving advice on which bus to get when, or which routes lead to stunning locations and hotels. That's wikivoyage. That is not wikipedia. On wikipedia, bus route lists are a perfectly legal section of the WikiProject which are simply documented and collected. We have them for most countries. We have multiple categories for them. The articles have lasted years. I beg you Davey, to rethink or withdraw these nominations as your statement is unconvincing (a lie) and they belong here.

Furthermore, on an unrelated note, I would like to point out a few issues about yourself. Without being POINTy or breaking NPA. You cannot claim vandalising this page will be 'prized with a block' - you are not an administrator, and one single vandalism edit isn't enough to convince most administrators to block. They do this by the guidelines. You can't say only you can edit the page - it's a talk page, everybody is free to post. It is your communication point. You cannot claim copyright on your userboxes. You cannot ask that people ask you before copying them for their own use. Haven't you read the rules about "clicking the "Save page" button, you agree to the Terms of Use, and you irrevocably agree to release your contribution under the CC-BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL."? And because I like things to be perfect, (but by no means do you have to change this last part), thank yous does not have an apostrophe, it's a plural, not possesive/missing out letters.

I suggest you relook at those deletion requests. Good day to you. ] (]) 16:10, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Regarding the 15 bus route list pages you nominated for deletion

In all of your nominations you have said that wikipedia is not a travel guide, and that those pages would fit on wikivoyage. I find two main problems with this reasoning; that is to say that wikivoyage does not accept bus route lists on that site, they have comprehensive coverage of travel using prose. (guideline). If we were to include them there, they would be deleted swiftly from wikivoyage also. I hope you did your research before nominating those articles; we have already covered this on the WikiProject Buses talk page. You would know not to include that on all your nomination statements.

Latterly, these pages are not using wikipedia as a travel guide. Are they? Look closely. I can't see anything giving advice on which bus to get when, or which routes lead to stunning locations and hotels. That's wikivoyage. That is not wikipedia. On wikipedia, bus route lists are a perfectly legal section of the WikiProject which are simply documented and collected. We have them for most countries. We have multiple categories for them. The articles have lasted years. I beg you Davey, to rethink or withdraw these nominations as your statement is unconvincing (a lie) and they belong here.

Furthermore, on an unrelated note, I would like to point out a few issues about yourself. Without being POINTy or breaking NPA. You cannot claim vandalising this page will be 'prized with a block' - you are not an administrator, and one single vandalism edit isn't enough to convince most administrators to block. They do this by the guidelines. You can't say only you can edit the page - it's a talk page, everybody is free to post. It is your communication point. You cannot claim copyright on your userboxes. You cannot ask that people ask you before copying them for their own use. Haven't you read the rules about "clicking the "Save page" button, you agree to the Terms of Use, and you irrevocably agree to release your contribution under the CC-BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL."? And because I like things to be perfect, (but by no means do you have to change this last part), thank yous does not have an apostrophe, it's a plural, not possesive/missing out letters.

I suggest you relook at those deletion requests. Good day to you. Rcsprinter (speak) 16:10, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
