Rush Line Corridor changes edit

I'm inexperienced when it comes to editing wiki, but I have updates I have made to this page in the past to add more current info. I have new info to add, but really it could end up changing the categories. Currently the wiki has it categorized as a Rail project. While that was one of the options, the official board has decided to instead use Bus Rapid Transit and cover a much smaller area http://rushline.org. Technically speaking, the Rush Line Transportation Corridor still exists in its full extent, but the actual service type, and scope of the service area is reduced to only a portion of the corridor. I'd like some guidance as to how to proceed to edit, as it doesn't really fit Rail category anymore. I've tried to identify other templates to use (e.g. from looking at other BRT pages) and I could do that, but I'm not sure if that is the proper route (no pun intended) that I should take. Other alternatives could be abandoning this page as it is rail categorized, and create a new one for the BRT version?

Does someone who has more experience with wiki editing have suggestions?

I've updated the article to mention BRT was the chosen alternative. The article could use more information from the 2017 LPA study and the work that has been done since then. Eóin (talk) 00:24, 26 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
