With the last article in Lokaltrafikk I think there is enough information to start considering articles for the individual stations. There seem to be four ways of naming stations on Wikipedia, and two of them are used in the article. As far as I can see from the sources, the official Norwegian names are Foo holdeplass (except Byparken and Nesttun that are terminal). We could therefore use
Anyone have any ideas or preferences? I don't think I'll start writing these articles right away, so there is no hurry. Also, should the articles on Nonneseteren and Bygarasjen be part of the articles for Bergen Station and Bergen Bus Station? Arsenikk (talk) 19:56, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
Is the report Fremtidig bybanenett i Bergensområdet from December 2009 of any use in the future plans sections? Some of the sources in the section are rather old. Rettetast ( talk) 13:48, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
Is it necessary to include all minor derailing in an article about a line? In general, they are not included in line article, unless they are fatal, result in a write-off or otherwise are spectacular. Smaller incidents are very difficult to document retrospectively, and if you look at for instance Oslo, it seems to be a fairly regular occurrence. The only supporting evidence is that it was the first accident and if it results in a delay in the opening date, then it is notable. Perhaps it should also go in the history section? Arsenikk (talk) 21:11, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
The article is indeed out of date. OK, I should have given some hints on the talk page. In fact, I actually wanted to, but real life somehow interfered (sorry about that). Anyway, the problem will not go away by simply removing the template, even if it's an eyesore.
In "Future plans", the second sentence starts with "Construction is estimated to begin in 2010..." Well, it's 2011 now and we don't know whether it has already begun or not. I don't speak Norwegian but this article seems to indicate that construction started this January and completion is scheduled for 2013. I'm not entirely sure though. This probably means that the third phase has been postponed, too. You will have to check that. If I am correct, the introduction will also have to be changed ("Construction will continue from Nesttun to Rådal in August 2010"). Another sentence that needs to be changed is "From November 1, the line will run every six minutes during the rush hour." -- Voyager ( talk) 20:15, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
Does the Light Rail line use the right-of-way (embankment) of the original Voss railway line, or has the alignment been modified (shifted aside) - and if so, where? -- Riggenbach ( talk) 20:45, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Severely out of date regarding sections 4 and 5 of Bybanen. The article does cover the decisions to build these sections, but not the construction and opening of section 4 to Fyllingsdalen via Haukeland hospital in November 2022 and the plans for section 5.
Additionally, in general much of the article has not been changed since 2011. Hence the first section is described well and in full detail, whereas later changes − the extensions to Lagunen and the airport − are only mentioned rather briefly. GeorgR (de) ( talk) 15:17, 20 November 2022 (UTC)

GA from 2010. The article still holds up quite well as a description of the state in 2010/2011 and events leading up to 2010. However, there have been only the most cursory updates since then. Recent developments (of which there were quite a few) are only covered briefly, which provides a marked contrast to the extensive (still good) descriptions of earlier parts. Therefore, the article no longer fulfils GA criterias 1 and 3 for its subject. GeorgR (de) ( talk) 15:28, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
