London Buses route 414[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article does not demonstrate why this bus route is notable. Per WP:BUSOUTCOMES, we typically do not retain articles on individual bus routes if they aren't notable in their own right. This article relies on sources from the route's operator and a WP:SPS for its content, and online searches for other sources finds only blogs and other wikis.

Could the page be redirected instead of being deleted? CourtneyBonnick (talk) 08:26, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of bus routes in London#400–499. Not notable other than as a ((R to list entry)). See also other similar redirects. Thryduulf (talk) 13:20, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per above. --Admr Boltz 15:40, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as article creator. There are three buses operating in London with the number 414. There is a book called "The Motorbus in London Country" which contains extended amounts of information about the Croydon bus which I have been meaning to check for ages. What clinched it for me was that TfL has used it as an example unprovoked. In my opinion, nothing could be gained from deletion. At the very least convert into a disambiguation page.--Laun chba ller 12:46, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How does that remark fall foul of that policy?--Laun chba ller 00:11, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That is an essay, not a policy. Rcsprinter (shout) @ 00:32, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The shortcut redirects to a section, so I didn't notice that template - in which case my point remains valid.--Laun chba ller 07:13, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Mainly per Launchballer. There are many notable London bus routes and this one is the same. Rcsprinter (chinwag) @ 19:05, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect. A plain, common bus route that is worthy of mentioning in a list, but not as a standalone article. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 22:08, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
