to add a new section in the above title. I explained that the company's latest orders for new buses were due to the introduction of this zone, that they were locally built and were introduced into service specifically by route with launch events and the stated specific route branding. I felt this too belonged in the new section, rather than SimpliCITY to which it had been added, given the branding doesn't even have the SimpliCITY logo included and the colours do not correspond to those previously used for the routes in timetabling etc. The existing sentence containing the route numbers and their colours was worded poorly and at least one of the colours appeared to be incorrect (65). I therefore listed them using bullet points with their colours and the route description as shown on the branding (e.g. Cambuslang - City Centre).
306:
the route description along with the number and colour, which had been there before and had now been reverted to, along with the poor wording. As a fairly new and inexperienced editor, I found this to be slightly heavy-handed, given the afternoon's work I put in, and the reason given appearing to only relate to part of the edit. My edits were made in good faith and it had not been my intention to write a 'travel guide' but to explain the reason for the new buses and branding appearing which may be of interest to users from the local area.

I had noticed the article had not been updated in a while, other than haphazardly by a variety of editors who had noticed new route-specific branding on First Glasgow buses. Clearly, this matter is of interest to some others and can be independently verified by sources, therefore I thought it worthy
309:
I intend to try a second time, as suggested by Knowledge (XXG) guidance, to see if this 'passes muster' and will not include the geographical route descriptions, but instead show it in prose as it is currently. If editors take issue with this edited edit, I would appreciate a more full explanation,
305:
Only a few hours later, I returned to the page to find that all of my changes had been subject to a 'complete reversion' by another editor, from looking at his page, a much more experienced one at that. The reason given was 'Not travel guide'. I can only assume this was in relation to my including
310:
so I can avoid wasting time in future! I know we shouldn't take ownership of articles as Knowledge (XXG) is a collaborative effort, but I just felt frustrated as I thought I had improved the article, only for it to be wiped clean with a 3-word explanation.
403:
Done - I hope it's okay! All that was wrong was that the last speech mark at the end of the last " ", was a different type to the other, which Knowledge (XXG) didn't like. Quite how I don't know, quite how I noticed it I don't know either!!
