![]() | The contents of the Cape to Cairo Road page were merged into CairoâCape Town Highway on January 2023. For the contribution history and old versions of the redirected page, please see its history; for the discussion at that location, see its talk page. |
It's nice to see that we have placed the "Cairo-Cape Town Highway" & the "Cape to Cairo Road" in one article. Now, we need to check the information written about "each" of these two routes. We need to see if the information was written "nicely".
So, it is stated that for much of their routes, they use the exact-same routes, with only 3 exceptions (as written under the "original route" subsection).
So, the "Cairo-Cape Town Highway" & the "Cape to Cairo Road" each have their own subsections describing the route.
Now, you'll notice that the notes on the "Cairo-Cape Town Highway" describe the route from North to South while the notes on the "Cape to Cairo Road" describe the route going the other direction. I suggest we find a way to "rewrite" one of them so that both sets of notes describe the route heading the same direction so that confusion is eliminated.
Also, I suggest we check any writing about sections of road that are part of "both routes" (concurrent) & make sure they are spreading the same message. I.e. Can somebody fix the writing about the "Egypt-Sudan Border" & make sure that both routes have the same writing?!
Otherwise, the article looks fine generally. GeographicAccountant ( talk) 15:52, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
