With the upcoming Legislative Council election, promotional content related to the election and candidates may appear on various modes of transportation in Hong Kong.

To avoid political risks and prevent violations of Hong Kong's election-related laws, the HK National Security Law and the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance, all Encyclopedia of Hong Kong Series collaborative websites and discussion platforms (including website community discussions and Discord platforms) strictly prohibit uploading, publishing, sharing, and discussing any content related to the Legislative Council election from now until 7 December 2025. These restrictions include but are not limited to: campaign advertisements for candidates, government materials encouraging voting, and any content that encourages or discourages voting, abstaining, casting blank votes, or spoiling ballots.

If you have related files (such as election advertising content on public transport), please avoid uploading them during the election period. If necessary, please wait until after the election concludes (after 7 December 2025, i.e., 00:00 Hong Kong time on 8 December 2025) before uploading.

We hope everyone will comply with these regulations.

User "Mandychoi" has been ignoring rules on editing and has repeatedly violating them, especially on route colours. Considering the user's behaviours in both Chinese and English versions and the need to prevent English version from becoming a place for evading blocks, we determine that the user is not suitable to continue editing in EBTHK and therefore Mandychoi is permanently blocked.

We once again remind all users to reach consensus before making any route colour changes to prevent violating rules and being blocked for rule violation. For the related discussion on route colour changes, see this Chinese version forum post.

EBTHK English version admin RE8750

The articles listed within the Articles requiring clean up or rewriting category are all copied directly from Wikipedia by the previous owner of this wiki. As shown in the EBTHK Chinese version admin Tcshek's user page (translated content):

"Although Wikipedia has information about buses in Hong Kong, much of it is unproven and even misleading and incorrect, plus Wikipedia cannot always monitor the information about buses in Hong Kong, so its credibility is doubtful. EBTHK, on the other hand, emphasises on the authenticity of the information, coupled with good management, and at the same time, there are also some exclusive information provided by bus enthusiasts (including photos of buses, bus enthusiasts' events, and further information on bus routes, etc.), which Wikipedia is not able to realise."

EBTHK requires content based on sources which makes it stand out from Wikipedia and just building up content based on the style you edit in Wikipedia is somehow contrary to the the rationale why EBTHK is here.

So please do not make edits based on the original content but instead, translate the Chinese version into English ones as I did in the "New Lantao Bus", "Long Win Bus" and "New World First Bus" articles.

As Google translate is not highly accurate for mass article edits, the use of it is strongly discouraged. Instead, the use of DeepL translator is encouraged, but please do final checks on the translated text to make sure no grammatical errors and place name errors exist in the submitted edit.

Dear all,

The mediawiki:common.css is set up in this wiki. However, I think that there is no urgent needs to set up the common.js for any function to be enabled, therefore I'm not planning to apply for enabling this function.

You are welcome to tell us your thoughts and suggestions by replying this post.
