This article should be deleted, it's really boring. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.72.6.65 (talk) 03:14, 11 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

It's just a redirect to another article, how boring could that other article be? -Goodshoped 03:23, 11 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Notability beyond trivial mention

edit

Nearly every statement is cited from a third party. at least some with material explicitly discussing the subject. I think this article meets the qualification for notability as written. are there any further specific objections to notability? as a comparison, several of the articles under Category:Philadelphia-area trackless trolleys were created in 2008 and have less detail than this article. -MJ (talk) 23:12, 17 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Unquestionably notable - to my recollection, Geary is the second-busiest surface transit corridor in North America. There is substantial discussion of the routes in reliable independent sources. I do think some consolidation is in order. Given that Geary Bus Rapid Transit has taken the form of incremental improvements rather than a single massive project, I think there's a strong case to be made for merging the articles to present a similar coherent history. I would also support that merged article being the primary history of the old A/B/C streetcar lines on Geary. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 23:48, 17 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
After some more research, it appears the C Geary–California has more of a historical continuation via the 1 California. I think i can find specific mentions of such if needed. otherwise, I generally support merging up Geary BRT into this article as well as expanding on at least the former A and B lines. -MJ (talk) 01:17, 18 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Pi.1415926535: I started Draft:1 California (bus line) to represent one of the system's most heavily-ridden routes and to reflect its transit heritage. -MJ (talk) 22:12, 19 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
