[edit] Ontario transit comparisions

What is up with all of the comparisons to Ontario. Unless someone objects I will delete them:

  • The system is similar to GO Transit in Greater Toronto Area.
  • ...offers similar services as WheelTrans in Toronto.
  • Unlike Ontario's Drive Clean program...

I say go ahead. •Zhatt• 21:44, August 3, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Added Fares section

I have added a link to my new TransLink Fares (Vancouver) article

Is there a need for a separate article on fares? It seems that the information in the TransLink Fares (Vancouver) article could easily be merged into this one. Thoughts? --Ckatz 01:37, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

I don't really think they need to be merged. The new fares article is actually nice, and quite interesting, but wouldn't really flow well within the main TransLink article. I think that they should be kept the way they are now. Canuck89 02:27, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Good work

I did not expect to find such an extensive coverage of the local transit system here on wiki, and I was pleasantly surprised. Good work everyone :P LG-犬夜叉 02:26, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:TransLink (British Columbia) logo.png

Image:TransLink (British Columbia) logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Organization changed

As of November 30, 2007, the governing structure of TransLink has been changed from the old system to the one listed in the proposal. The legal name of the new organization has also changed, although the shortened form has remained. Sources have been added in case you want to verify them. Allan kuan1992 06:29, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
