National express #4404

Open Identitaet opened 4 years ago

Identitaet commented 4 years ago

National Express = network https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Express

Operator for Germany https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Express_Holding I guess internationally https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Express is the best (unsure tough)

I almost feel like creating a label just for adding transport entries. It seems odd to use the "add brand" label with them for some reason. I feel like it should be more specific. "add transport brand" maybe? "add brand - transport"? "Add transport network"? I don't know.

I'd suggest we go with transit to be consistent but yeah sounds good

Yeah, I hadn't noticed we were going with "transit" until after I wrote the message. Consistent is good though.

National express offers services in Bus, Coach, Train, Tram. Currently it's only added in bus category. Should I add it in other categories too ?

Yes! The script only collects networks that are used on at least 10 routes, so we're surely missing a bunch.

It might also be worth changing the wikidata from https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60188 (Mobico Group) to Q13479582 (National Express Coaches)

They renamed their group to Mobico group source: https://www.expressandstar.com/news/business/2023/05/10/change-of-name-for-national-express/
