  • There is no new route numbered 300, the 300 has been around since the Beginning of Network 2006 and Runs from Tuggeranong to Belconnen, via Erindale on Weekends. The New bus routes planned to start this year will be edited accordingly when the routes change over early this year. When this happens, the routes will be changed overnight. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kommissar todd06 (talkcontribs) 11:45, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] reverted warning

I've reverted a 'warning to tourists' in this article (16 Jan 2005 version) for a number of reasons, but if others feel that it should stay in the article then i think it should be discussed first. Firstly, I think that a source should be cited for the 'warning'. My experience of the Belconnen and Woden interchanges (albeit limited) would not suggest that they warrant a warning. There are interchanges in other parts of the country and other parts of the world that are more problematic. Also, I'm not sure that a 'warning to tourists' is encyclopedic. If there have been news reports or warnings issued by police that are considered notable, then they should be included in that context and cited, but not included as a 'warning to tourists'. -- Adz|talk 01:54, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair enough (remove tourist advisory)

I put the warning there after relatives complained about the Woden interchange. There is definitely a problem with crime in the afternoons, particularly at Civic and Woden, but I agree that other interchanges around the world are often far worse.

Retrospectively, I stand by your decision to remove my entry until proper crime figures can be cited.


[edit] Environmentally friendly?

Article says "The new buses are comparatively environmentally friendly". How so? Do they run on natural gas? -- Barrylb 04:45, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

  • The Scania L94UBs are CNG powered, I don't know about the Irisbuses but I can't see a gas pod in any photos. SM247My Talk 11:50, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

I suggest user "Josh710" should refrain from editing this article.

You are removing actual FACTS and INFORMATION as some sort of "revenge" for when people remove your incorrect information. If you want to edit this article, please follow proper netiquette, and make sure your information, not to mention spelling and grammar, is correct


EXCUSE ME I GOT POOR ENGLISH SKILL IN HERE AND I CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT ME

I was born with NO english skill in here.

[edit] Article protected

This article is now protected. Please discuss your edits here, not through edit summaries whilst reverting. When you can come up with an agreement, request the page be unprotected on WP:RFPP. Thanks, Majorly (talk) 11:26, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

  • The last edit by kommissar todd06 is the last factually correct edit of the page as it removes information not required as edited by other user (Including information edited accordingly when first post by user made, just re worded), and re-adds route 170 information removed. The last edit was at 11:16 12 Feb. Kommissar Todd06 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kommissar todd06 (talkcontribs) 11:35, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

PLEASE PLEASE Kommissar Todd06 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.180.50 (talk) 11:49, 12 February 2008 (UTC)


PLEASE SAY SORRY TO ME Kommissar Todd06

im am really really angry with you now —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.180.50 (talk) 11:51, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Well I can say that getting angry at another user won't help the situation. As you can see, an admin protected the article to stop the edit war. Now what you can do is post the text that you would like to be included in the article on this talk page, and why it should be included, as well. It is necessary to include reliable, third -party sources. Once you post the information and why it should be included, other users can discuss--in a polite manner--why the information should or shouldn't be included. Once a consensus is reached, you can post a request at WP:RFPP, as Majorly said above. Hopefully that helps explain things for you, if not, feel free to post a message at my talk page.

User "Josh710" appears to have removed information regarding Route 170, a commuter express sertvice, as listed on ACTION's website. This information is correct, (See: http://action.act.gv.au) and should be included. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.33.223 (talk) 06:01, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Basically as above, the route 170 was removed when it should not have been, and under the Xpresso header, the sentence with route 117 needs to be changed to 170.

The following sentence under Intertown needs to be deleted: And year of (2006) new route start is 300 where these services And replaced with Of which served the four Interchanges and suburbs at either end

The New Route 300 is not actually a new route, and has been around since before 2006, the only change to it is that it travels via Erindale on the Weekends. This was the main problem point, as information was added by Josh710 and edited to be gramatically correct by myself, just removed the Examples. A link was also added by Josh710, however I moved that to the top under services with 'Detailed Timetable information and be found at [URL]' so it was more prominent on the page, and covered all routes including 300. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kommissar todd06 (talkcontribs) 09:32, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

The following sentence in the "Commuter Express" section is incorrect and should be removed. There is no route 180.

"The exception to this is the 180, which is classed as an Xpresso Route and is the only such route not numbered in the 700's." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.33.223 (talk) 06:39, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ticket prices

Does there really need to be a detailed list of ticket prices on a Wiki page? IMO a link to the operator's website listing the fares would be more appropriate. Somebody in the WWW (talk) 05:06, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

If there are no objections to removing it then I will do so later. Somebody in the WWW (talk) 09:51, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
Well I see no point in removing that section aslong as it is kept simple, or basically the way it is. As ACTION has a simplistic fare structure, then there is no real harm to it being there. --Kommissar todd06 (talk) 06:05, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
See: Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_directory, or to be specific, the "sales catalogs" header. Somebody in the WWW (talk) 09:13, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I would say listing what ticket types are available, where they are sold, etc is okay. Listing how much they cost is not. Wongm (talk) 09:38, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I would agree with Wongm - perhaps a simple listing of what fare products are available is most appropriate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.33.223 (talk) 08:44, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Edits on 24 April 2008

I've made changes to the page. I have not changed the structure of the information, just made some edits to improve the style and accuracy of what is presented and also added more links.

-- Martin —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.163.137.163 (talk) 08:15, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

There are a two matters which need more work / confirmation. I do not know the model name of the Hino mini buses used for SNT, and there is no information about them on any fleet list that I've seen (so I can't say how many there are).

Also, I do not have an exact date for the completion of the City Interchange remodel. I have put down 2000 based on what is shown on bus maps, but it could have been done in 1999.

[edit] New Bus Routes/Timetables

There are plenty of new routes as of 2 June 2008 and many changes including services of all 300 series routes —Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.241.63.59 (talk) 08:19, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Page updated to reflect the changed services -- Martin 58.163.137.245 (talk) 09:34, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
