[edit] 502 Downtowner (TTC)
Another bus route, why not list every bus route in the entire world!!! RMHED 21:39, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Merge with Toronto Transit Commission. JYolkowski // talk 22:12, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Information is already on 501 Queen (TTC) article. --Atrian 03:35, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
- Per Toronto streetcar system, all of the other streetcar routes already have articles as well. (501 Queen, 503 Kingston Road, 504 King, 505 Dundas, 506 Carlton, 508 Lake Shore, 509 Harbourfront, 510 Spadina, 511 Bathurst, 512 St. Clair.) I don't think they warrant articles, personally, but there's no valid reason to single this one out — either they all go or they all stay; deleting this one, but leaving the other ten intact, is not acceptable. Delete all, but failing that, keep this. And for the record, I live in Toronto, so the creator of the articles is kindly invited to stuff his accusations of anti-Canadian bias.

- I also think that the streetcar articles should be kept. Toronto's streetcar system is unique in Canada and deserves to be documented (the bus lines are unremarkable and don't deserve their own articles). However I think the 502 and 503 lines are actually sub lines of the 501 line so they should be discussed on that article rather than having separate articles. --Atrian 01:08, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Tram/streetcar lines are quasi-permanent. Other cities have articles for their light rail or streetcar lines: Category:Dallas Area Rapid Transit, Category:Green Line (MBTA), Category:Light Rapid Transit (Singapore) lines, Category:Tram routes in Melbourne. --Usgnus 20:06, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
