[edit] Proposal to move page

I am not sure why this page is called Punchbowl Bus and Coach Company, Sydney. Going to the company website, the company name is Punchbowl, Narwee & G.P Bus Co. Pty Ltd. However they trade as Punchbowl Bus Co.. They have used different wording on their livery at different stages of their corporate history.

At any rate I would like to remove , Sydney from the article name. As discussed above the name the company is referred to as, needs to be consistent with either

  • Common practice
  • What they publish on their website & timetables or
  • Their legal trading name

According to This the company is named PUNCHBOWL BUS CO PTY LTD so perhaps this is what the article could be renamed as. Quaidy 05:38, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Pty Ltd is not usually referred to when talking about companies - they are there to identify legal status. I will move the article to Punchbowl Bus Company and put the full company name from ASIC in the lead section. Garrie 22:23, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Page has been moved, double redirects now point straight to this page, but there are a large number of pages still pointing to the current redirect page. These should be fixed on an ongoing basis by a regular editor of this page.
I will fix template:BusesInSydney. Garrie 22:35, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lead section

Rather than listing routes, the lead section should simply summarise how many routes are the company operate. A full list is included within the article. This company is not notable enough, nor complex enough in operation, to require more than one or two short paragraphs in the lead section. Garrie 22:35, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
