older entries[edit]

Hello. I'm Carsonley. I see that this page needs help. Much info in this page is old and not up to date. There are some routes that need to be fixed. I have started cleaning the page, but it will need more time for the page to be perfect. I am hoping the page's quality will be as good as Citybus (Hong Kong). (After I gave help for that page.) It's my hope that others will come and help the clean up. We've got ALOT to do! If you want to talk to me, click this link. Carsonley Thanks! (9/25/05)

Routes 1,2A..2F show the quality I am trying to achieve on this article. Much of the routes are either not up to date or show the wrong info and is misleading and will need to be corrected. (This note will be deleted later) (9/25/05)

GA nomination failed[edit]

Fair use rationale for Image:KMB logo.JPG[edit]

Image:KMB logo.JPG 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Proposed merge with Kowloon Motor Bus fleet[edit]

The version before the redirect contains valid information about the bus fleet which can be merged here, but it does need references. Atlantic306 (talk) 19:19, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Bus route details[edit]

Can we add the bus route details (section 5.1) back from an older revision (Kowloon Motor Bus)? I think it is encyclopedic. But someone removed it for being "non-notable info" (and that user has since been banned for socking). However, if we want to add it back we may need to check for outdated parts or any errors.

Nope. Wikipedia:NOTADIRECTORY. Matthew hk (talk) 09:27, 30 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And probably WP:OR. Matthew hk (talk) 09:29, 30 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

But I remember when I was in primary school I wondered what the letters in KMB routes meant, and my dad found this article for me. It was very interesting. Hkbusfan (talk) 01:50, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
