Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of bus routes in Peterborough (2nd nomination)
Just like the last afd, this is a perfectly valid |standalone list of routes of a major bus system in a major city.  Bus routes are integral parts of the workings of a city and that is ''very'' encyclopedic.  I see "WP is not a directory" quotes frequently in bus route nominations but there is actually nothing in  that bans list articles, nor list articles of bus routes. This isn't a "repositories of loosely associated topics" or anything of the like and this list is ''very'' discriminate.  I also notice the nom and the delete voters are simply stating lists of bus routes are unencyclopedic in general and not making a case to delete this list article of ''this'' specific city's bus routes, yet again they haven't touched the List of bus routes in London List of bus routes in Manhattan or the like which one would imagine are much more colossal violations of encyclopedic content to those who don't like bust list articles
