What is ANAT Technology mentioned in the article in section Bixi#The_bike_dock_and_locking_system ? --Bob ( talk) 18:15, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
I was tempted to move the article back to BIXI, but it may be more fruitful to comment on this subject since nothing is at stake save for consistency.
The system is almost often (but not always) referred to with capitals in the press. The main website reveals that the developers themselves are rather inconsistent, but the tendency is to privilege BIXI over Bixi: http://montreal.bixi.com/home/home-bixi. The logo itself seems to use stylized small caps, but this could be perceived as an image rather than an exemplar for textual usage. I cannot make a forceful argument for one or the other. Mainly I'm asking that a consensus should be reached about whether or not consistency is even important for this article so that we're not going back and forth in the body text.

Bixi → BIXI — The official name is indeed written with all caps. See the official site and publications for more details. It is a FACT, no matter if some would wish it otherwise.-- Mekmtl ( talk) 05:36, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

This might need to be split into two, one about BIXI Montreal, and another about BIXI in general, including the bicycle itself in the general article. BIXIs have spread around the world now, so it is no longer just a Montreal program. 65.95.15.144 ( talk) 06:39, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
I think it's a good idea to split this article into Bixi and Bixi Montreal, with this article kept for information about the company and system, while Montreal-specific information about rates, statistics, and locations would be moved to the new Bixi Montreal article. This article was clearly originally written when there was only one Bixi system and it struggles to present a worldwide view. Reaperexpress ( talk) 22:34, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
There were no objections, so I have created a "Bixi Montreal" article and filled it with all the information on this page pertaining to Montreal specifically. I will now redesign this article to present more of a worldwide view of the PBSC Bixi system in general. Reaperexpress ( talk) 00:23, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
I am not a member of Wikipedia, so I do not feel I have the right to edit the pages. The Bixi bike program actually is a concept that originated in the tourist area of Portugal in the 1981. It started in Santa Marta de Feira and spread quickly through-out the country and over to Spain and Italy. It is by no way an idea started in Montreal. I can put the history of Bixi Portugal if you want... The concept was made popular in Montreal in 2009... continue with story... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.83.138.8 ( talk) 20:41, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
From the references and text in this article and in Hubway, it seems that the Boston section should be removed, as that city's bicycle share program is operated by Alta, not Bixi. Any objections? matt kane's brain ( talk) 19:39, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
The spelling switches between what I would call UK and US spellings throughout the article. As the article is about a Canadian company, which spelling would you prefer? 95.146.10.14 ( talk) 00:39, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi fellow Wikipedians,
I don't understand how PBSC Urban Solutions is supposed to be the main article for the 2014 bankruptcy section: it's not about the Bixi bankruptcy at all. I suggest to remove this reference to the PBSC Urban Solutions article.
I also think that the whole 2014 bankruptcy section is not needed at all as its content could very well be in the History section (most of it is there anyway).
I will gladly make the appropriate corrections if no one objects.
Thanks, Grouchiest ( talk) 17:19, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
