Just take a look at that. LINKS is one bus route but it is part of a one bus route system. The #6 or Route M for X County Transit is a single bus line which would not be notable but a separate brand and organization is notable. Maybe we can work together in order to improve the quality of the Brisbane and Bayhill Shuttles. If you say they are part of a county program, then which one? Perhaps we can consolidate them. But moving them to a list would be losing too much content and bus systems are all notable.LuciferWildCat (talk) 23:29, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

San Leandro LINKS in a way is still not notable. It is just better "branded" but again it is not comparable to AC Transit. Even if you put all the ridership and the expenses for each individual shuttle route together (even the unlisted), they are still no more notable than some of the busiest bus lines, which they don't get their own page.

Not per wikipedia consensus, it is a bus system albeit a small one and is notable per consensus. Wikipedia is not paper and we can have an article on every bus system. Its not based on ridership figures, its based on the fact that all bus systems are notable and a reasonable person would expect to find them all on here. The AC Transit article was once in a sad stub state, which may have caused you to favor deletion, but look at it now. Some of the busiest bus lines actually do have articles about them, especially bus rapid transit bus lines and even their stops as many have more traffic and coverage on them than do certain rail lines.LuciferWildCat (talk) 23:16, 10 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what you've for reference on "consensus." I am at least following this principle: Wikipedia:Public transport#Bus systems. A city shuttle program can and should be included in the city's page. I personally do think that there are too many pages on public transit that are un-encyclopedic (like pages of individual surface N-Judah stops, which have no content other than the location). I prefer fewer pages, but higher quality (like research worthy, not just a replication of the information available transit agency), versus more of the low content/quality pages. In comparison, local businesses in the community generally aren't notable enough to have their own pages, but can be mentioned within the page about that community. I would dare to say that some businesses in that community would be much more notable than the shuttle program but aren't good enough to have its own Wikipedia page.Acnetj (talk) 06:41, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! power~enwiki (π, ν) 20:12, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Remember to remove the {{REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD}} line if you make any more joke AfDs. Thanks, ansh666 04:37, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In general, it is helpful to make more of a comment than a simple "Not notable." power~enwiki (π, ν) 06:00, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I created this article with the mindset that every eager mind who wants to clarify the position of various countries of Asia on the platform of YouTube can have an access to the article created by me. It is true that there is not any official release of any article on the web stating this kind of list but it can be noted that there are several articles depicting the tops of individual countries like that of Korea (K-pop), Japan (J-pop), Vietnam (V-pop), Middle East (Arabic songs), India (Bollywood songs and others) and infact almost every region of Asia possess this kind of list. So, what do you say, are they all narrow minded? It is totally obivious that now the world is globalised. So, the music production by any country may seem the participation of other but that doesn't play with the very identity of the song (resembling the culture). Regarding the negligence of middle east, I tried my best to include each and every part of Asia in it, but I could not make it happen because not every part of Asia could make it to the list (means lowering the bar below 350 million would make the article a mess because there are a lot of many videos above 300 million views). For example, V-pop's best has around 336 million views, J-pop's best have 185 million, Arabic best is more than 600 million views, but it was from a Moroccan singer (and exclusively produced by a Moroccan company). So I could not include them in the list. Well, I am not saying that they will never make it to the list or I have the full editing rights on the article. Anyone can edit it and include others in the future and exactly that's how Wikipedia works. Regarding the breach of the very rights of Wikipedia, I have not made this article for using any propaganda or with wrong mindset or intention. If anybody feels so, then he has the full rights regarding molding the article in the way it suits an encyclopediac content and making it fruitful for others.

Thank you for your kind intention. Rishu Shukla (talk) 00:00, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Defining precisely, the resemblence of culture and languages among different nations, population level of different countries determining the number of views, popularity of that music industry, penetration power of YouTube in different countries and alternatives for such videos etc. are those basic factors which are applied to all the sub-categories of YouTube articles across Wikipedia. Well, there are more people in this world who recognize English as either their first or second language as compared to either German or French. So, they are more likely to listen songs in english language and resemble with the english pop culture. Therefore contributing greater number of views for those videos (Although there are exceptions like Despacito, Gangnam Style, but they are just 1-2% of the whole music industry). Similarly, the population level of India is huge compared to the combined population level of many countries in Asia. But, even though, the views of Indic videos are not as much as K-pop, English songs, etc. As one can notice that YouTube is totally banned in China. That's why even having a humongous population, it does not feature in any of such lists on global arena. Therefore it may be noted that all the wikipedia articles are not representing the whole part of the globe, which means they are all incorrect in one way or other and if they are not, then my article is also right in each and every way as per the general notion followed by all such articles on Wikipedia. Representing more than, half of the human population, it is totally correct to mention list which represents the different countries of Asia on YouTube. So, please try to undetstand the credibility of the article and support its existence. Rishu Shukla (talk) 10:13, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
