Hi Joe, one of the main reasons for wanting the {{ coor at dms}} is to geotag the article, so that external projects like Google Earth and NASA World Wind have an unambiguous way of extracting coordinate info from the Wikipedia database. This is a goal of WikiProject Geographical coordinates. Without this form of the template, there will be no link to the Zero Milestone article from this point in Google Earth. The issue with other skins is known, but the momentum seems to be towards using the templates from everything I've read. Perhaps someone is looking into the skins issue. I guess I could add {{ coor title dms}} to the end of the article instead, so that it doesn't look as bad in classic skin (just redundant), but was trying to avoid coding the same coordinates more than once. -- GregU 04:39, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
There are several other US zero milestones, most dedicated at about the same time as Washington's. Some were designed by the same architect. How should we deal with these? Should Zero milestone be made more general and include a section on each, or should a new article be created called something like Zero milestones in the United States?
The are still orginal zero milestonoes or replacements in St Augustine, San Diego, San Antonio, Nashville, Memphis, Rogersville, TN, Lexington, KY

Shouldn't the redirect page Mile zero be a disambiguation page to other national zero markers? e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Canada_Highway#The_.22mile_zero.22_concept -- 84.12.64.112 12:34, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
See theimdb.com listing for this film - I'd venture taht the Mile zero redirect needs to become a disambiguation page. Skookum1 ( talk) 20:18, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
