Talk:Milltown Malbay
Who edited this article? Most of the info is utter nonsense. There is not "one bus a week of Tuesdays", there is a service once day on workdays. Beside that, the whole area is dumped into this article. The Banner (talk) 18:09, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
< moved conversation from GS talk page> I am interested where you got your info about the buses in - amongst others - Kilfenora and Milltown Malbay. What you have stated there is so utterly wrong, that is in my opinion vandalism. That bus travels 5 days a week, on working days, from Doonbeg to Ennis. Not once a week. And the Clare Bus drives once a week, on Saturdays, from Milltown Malbay to Ennis.
Spanish Point is not only a headland but also a tiny village/hamlet. And not consisting of "drab concrete bungalows, caravan parks and food outlets". Etcetera, etcetera The Banner (talk) 19:53, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
- The Banner, if you have better information, please update the page, and any others you notice. I have recorded the best info available at the time of editing. I happened to look back at those bus routes a few days ago, in cause the sparse service was a temporary effect of covid. Bustimes.org showed M-F service as you describe but other sites didn't, eg Bus Eireann showed no service at all, so I made no change. Grahamsands (talk) 09:43, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
- See here. Still Monday to Friday, but only 25% capacity. The Banner (talk) 19:01, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
- I'm moving this conversation to Milltown page as there may be other povs, and your edits were unconstructive. Grahamsands (talk) 08:42, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- (continuing) - The Banner, it is not reasonable to delete entire sections because you happen to disagree with some content - even if it is indeed incorrect, as it is for bus times. The Milltown page has been broadened to take in nearby small places that don't have (and are unlikely to ever merit) their own page, such as Spanish Point and Quilty. That's not dumping IMO but sensible editing. Please restore the sections and update content. Grahamsands (talk) 09:04, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- No response so I did it myself. Grahamsands (talk) 21:17, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- I would say removing incorrect information is very helpful. Of course it would be better to replace it with accurate information, but removing incorrect information is helpful regardless. —Granger (talk · contribs) 18:38, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
- What was not helpful was the wholesale deletion of sections. Amending with correct info was therefore a longer task - GS.

- They have changed the bus schedules. I hope you are willing to correct your mistakes. Multiple runs per day, seven days a week: timetable. Good luck. The Banner (talk) 14:12, 24 January 2021 (UTC) And the bus stops nearly in front of the window of my house.
- The Banner, if that bus stops right by your house, then you're the person best qualified to keep the relevant pages updated. Grahamsands (talk) 10:46, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
