About Trimet

I have a very good reason for this 1. people should know which past bus routes served these stations because people may ask themselves these questions and can just find the answers to these questions and go to these links. 2. Misplaced Pages will be around forever but these bus routes now may not be the same (expect for the 51?) in 73 years from so i think it is very good for people to learn about these things — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dfrr (talk • contribs) 21:01, 27 February 2015‎ (UTC)

Misplaced Pages's purpose isn't to serve as a collection of all knowledge, but instead as an encyclopedia. Misplaced Pages is not a directory, and collections of all bus routes that a station has ever served falls under that. Your second point illustrates this; bus routes are constantly changing, and to continually update them would be a time-consuming and futile purpose.

@Dfrr: After a few days, there has been no support for including past bus links at the WikiProject for Oregon, so I'm going to remove them. You should find consensus for including the links before adding them again. Conifer (talk) 02:38, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
