  • Reference #2 is dead.

 Done

  • For the table listing all the stops, I think it would help if the notes at the bottom turn into footnotes with links to the appropriate places. (Just like the note that is already in the article).
  • Reference #4 seems to provide more recent data then what is presented on the wiki page (the wiki page uses 2015 data).

 Done --Dom497 (talk) 00:32, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Dom497: Thank you for reviewing the Q70 and M60 articles. I am also grateful to Kew Gardens 613 for fixing the issues in both of them. The only problem is that the notes in the tables (for both articles) are transcluded from the Select Bus Service page. epicgenius (talk) 01:32, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Epicgenius: I didn't look at the source code for that table at first but with what you've said it looks like this is something that needs a bigger discussion (outside of the scope of this review) if this change were to ever be made (which was ultimately just a suggestion). On that note, I will pass this nomination!--Dom497 (talk) 01:49, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
