I'm slightly confused: All pages that link to Timetable are about means of transport. In the article itself there is no mention either of the fact that timetable can also be used in altogether different contexts such as, say, schools. Shouldn't we add this somewhere? <KF> 03:02, Nov 8, 2004 (UTC)
- Have attempted to fix that with a general definition and a pointer that this article is about transport timetables. The article itself could do with a thorough copyedit, not least to make it much more "first-language English". -- Picapica 08:09, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- "Especially in Japan, the timetable which carried the time of a train and buses of Japanese every place with the magazine form is sold. Although there is a thing of the same kind in South Korea, China, etc., it has not spread like it Japanese."
- Any ideas what the above might mean? <KF> 11:09, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
Removed the following:
- Airlines, train and bus companies commonly publicize timetable books or pamphlets for the general public. Most airlines used to send timetables for free through the mail upon request. However, after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, many have stopped this practice.
- source?
- Especially in Japan, the timetable which carried the time of a train and buses of Japanese every place with the magazine form is sold. Although there is a thing of the same kind in South Korea, China, etc., it has not spread like it Japanese.
- huh?
Still needs more work.

I'd like to move this text into an article called "Public Transport Timetables"; and then under this heading "Timetables" there will simply be a small number of links: one to "Public Transport Timetables", to "School Timetables", to "Airline Timetables" and perhaps some others. My reasoning is that I don't believe there's much that these different types of timetables have in common. Any objections? Tcotco 06:31, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
