Discussion of the old poll (which is now at Wikipedia:State route naming conventions poll/Old) is here: Wikipedia talk:State route naming conventions poll/Old. This page is for discussion of the current poll, as per the project page. Powers 21:04, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
The final phase of the poll is coming... so what do we want to call the final page? Wikipedia:Guide to writing about U.S. state highways? Wikipedia:Naming conventions (roads)? -- Rschen7754 ( talk - contribs) 01:29, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
There is a style guide draft started by SPUI already, it has some good info in it (and some info that needs to be made more neutral. I can't recall the link offhand but it's around here somewhere... That seems a good place to put some of this. The name could be changed as needed but why start over? ++ Lar: t/ c 14:31, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
Please don't move pages until we have completed the final vote. If you already have, don't revert them, but please hold off on moving pages for now. -- Rschen7754 ( talk - contribs) 23:26, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
I let things go over my trip to Catalina... I'll adjust the timeline. -- Rschen7754 ( talk - contribs) 02:15, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
Just letting you know. Please throw your input in. -- Rschen7754 ( talk - contribs) 03:13, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Can't we just take out the states that don't need their highway articles moved to the prescribed article title? It's creating unnecessary clutter on the sign-up page. -- physicq210 04:54, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
I know page moves can't start until Friday, but what about fixing pages so that the newly-adopted convention is used in article text (including the bolded titles)? Can we start performing these cleanups now? -Jeff (talk) 19:44, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
Or rather, WP:USSH is, and needs to be tagged as such. -- Rschen7754 ( talk - contribs) 02:16, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
WP:AN, WP:ANI, User:Curps, and WP:RFAr need to be informed of the decision here with a list of users involved in the moves at least 12 hours before moves begin. Is anyone willing to do this? -- Rschen7754 ( talk - contribs) 02:29, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
Yeah sorry. If someone had notified the people above on time we could have started. But then... -- Rschen7754 ( talk - contribs) 01:12, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
Just a reminder. You don't particularly need to create new redirects right away, but please fix all double redirects once you move a page. -- NORTH talk 16:46, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
I got fed up moving Wisconsin and tried to automate the process. Not sure how well all of these work but here are some bookmarklets... you need to run these in the following order: (3rd needs to be run for each redirect on the edit page for each redirect)

Where are we with the converstions? If we're done with the conversions we need to do some striking out on the tasks on the main page. -- TinMan 22:10, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Surely, we're done with this, right? Or no? -- Triadian ( talk) 07:45, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
