The 75 IP keeps changing the termini in the San Bernardino Freeway from west - east to southwest - northeast. I've reverted him two times and told him to take up the matter at WT:USRD rather than edit war on the article, but to no avail. If I revert him again, I will violate 3RR so there's nothing I can do.

I agree. Even though I know nothing about California highways, if it is listed on a log, it is not that important. Washington's logs list all roads that cross a state highway. ~~ ĈĠ ☺ Simple? 02:23, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

Anybody know Splat5572 ( talk · contribs) is now Must eat worms ( talk · contribs). A exit list template is a good thought a good try but not exactly a good idea. I don't see a big problem with See Golden State Frwy, but over the tempalte policy over usage these templates just shouldn't exist. Duplicating a exit list is not neccessairly a good idea either. For exit list we can't just copy and paste stuff especially mixing with various of colspnas. Try it you will just mess up the table. For I-5 exit list (since you have no way to merge Santa Ana, Golden State Frwy in) a good idea is to split exit list into smaller sections. We have a section of San Diego Frwy since SD Frwy is also part of I-5 alignment, you can have another section to see Santa Ana and Golden State Frwy, then next section on exit list for north parts of I-5 this will make easier for people to see. Same as US 101, let's start and exit lsit on that page just west of Ventura Frwy then at beginnig put a little flag saying See Santa Ana, Hollywood, Venutra Frwys exit list so what??-- 57 Free ways 23:45, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
All, question regarding adding freeway names in on freeways in California, particularly in Northern California. In the scope of common usage, freeway names are largely meaningless in Northern California as they are almost never used in favor rather of the freeway numbers (ie: 280 is the common name rather than Junipero Serra Freeway. And as evidence of a further problem several freeways like California State Route 85 and Interstate 680 (California) have multiple names and even names that overlap the same portions of highway. Or in the case of Sinclair Freeway names that overlap multiple highways. Should we even bother listing them since the list is both extensive for most of these routes, and largely meaningless? For instance someone created an article for Bayshore Freeway which while interesting really should just be merged into US 101 in California since the route is primarly known by it's number rather than the name and is entirely within 101. Much like how Nimitz Freeway just redirects to Interstate 880. Gateman1997 ( talk) 23:01, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
Wikipedia 0.7 is a collection of English Wikipedia articles due to be released on DVD, and available for free download, later this year. The Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team has made an automated selection of articles for Version 0.7.
We would like to ask you to review the articles selected from this project. These were chosen from the articles with this project's talk page tag, based on the rated importance and quality. If there are any specific articles that should be removed, please let us know at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.7. You can also nominate additional articles for release, following the procedure at Wikipedia:Release Version Nominations.
A list of selected articles with cleanup tags, sorted by project, is available. The list is automatically updated each hour when it is loaded. Please try to fix any urgent problems in the selected articles. A team of copyeditors has agreed to help with copyediting requests, although you should try to fix simple issues on your own if possible.
We would also appreciate your help in identifying the version of each article that you think we should use, to help avoid vandalism or POV issues. These versions can be recorded at this project's subpage of User:SelectionBot/0.7. We are planning to release the selection before December 2008, so we ask you to select the revisions before October 20. At that time, we will use an automatic process to identify which version of each article to release, if no version has been manually selected. Thanks!

I-5, US 101 has gone through few undos after all the exit list tempaltes have been deleteb. Rschen7754 ( talk · contribs) just keep undoing my changes without expalining why. I don't see what's the problem with See Golden State Frwy. People just have to jump around pages so what? Will it kill anybody? What's bad about duplicating exit list is people will have to update two exit list. Let's say we open a new exit, somebody update one exit list, they didn't update the other one. people will not know which one is right.-- SCFR eew ays 23:38, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
Should this article stay merge with I-405. Since most contents on SD Frwy is I-405 stuff, control cities, and community serve, basic stuff we should try to avoid. We have too little to wirte of I-5, I know SD Frwy is both I-405 and I-5, is the FRWY I hail off of.-- Free way guy 22:04, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
;Freeway names and merging Most articles about freeways have been merged into the article about the route it carries. I agree with this, and I don't believe there has been any recent disagreement. The question is what to do with the remaining ones; I also have some possible suggestions for other articles.
Beverly Hills Freeway: could be merged to SR 2, but probably notable enough on its own Eastern Toll Road: tagged for merge to Transportation Corridor Agencies Golden State Freeway: keep separate, since I-5 is a long road and there's enough history to add Laurel Canyon Freeway: could be merged to SR 170, but probably notable enough on its own Richard M. Nixon Parkway: tagged for merge to SR 90; it's no longer state-maintained, but Yorba Linda is required by state law to continue to sign it as SR 90 San Bernardino Freeway: keep separate, since I-10 is a long road and there's enough history to add Santa Ana Freeway: keep separate, since I-5 is a long road and there's enough history to add Hollywood Freeway and Ventura Freeway are two similar cases: part of the freeway is part of US 101, a long road, but the rest is most or all of a short route. Both should certainly remain separate from US 101, but would it make sense, at least in the case of the Ventura, to merge SR 134 into that article? The only thing that would belong in an SR 134 article rather than the Ventura Freeway article is early history as a surface road, and that can still be placed in the history section of the Ventura Freeway article.
San Diego Freeway contains all of I-405 and part of I-5. I don't see what would be in the I-405 article that wouldn't also belong in the San Diego Freeway article; again it might make sense to merge I-405 into San Diego Freeway.
Two other routes might make more sense redone. SR 110 consists of two pieces: a short surface routing south of I-110 (deleted from the legislative definition but not relinquished), and a northern extension that includes the north end of the Harbor Freeway and the Pasadena Freeway. I would suggest moving SR 110 to Pasadena Freeway (or Arroyo Seco Parkway?), and repurposing the I-110 article to cover the entire length of Route 110. There's already ambiguity from the fact that Harbor Freeway redirects there, and I don't think this would cause any more. If the name is confusing, maybe it could be moved to Interstate/State Route 110 (California) or a similar compound name (it's certainly better than North Carolina Highway 106 - Georgia State Route 246).
Similarly, SR 210 is an eastern extension of I-210, and will supposedly become an extension. The entire route is also the Foothill Freeway. It might again make sense to merge the two under a compound name.
Are there any comments? --NE2 04:55, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
The general rule I use is that if the article is short or has redundant info, I will merge it. In regards to I-110, I would leave the routes separate. In regards to I-210, it's all Interstate standard highway already, so I dunno what the holdup with Caltrans is. :| --Rschen7754 (T C) 05:41, 13 January 2008 (UTC) The problem with 110 is that the Harbor Freeway and I-110 are two slightly different entities, and SR 110 has two disjointed segments that are not related; the one in San Pedro has more in common with the Harbor Freeway than the Pasadena Freeway. --NE2 05:45, 13 January 2008 (UTC) You're counting the San Pedro portion? --Rschen7754 (T C) 05:48, 13 January 2008 (UTC) Yes; Caltrans still maintains it as SR 110. --NE2 06:24, 13 January 2008 (UTC) I forgot to look outside SoCal:
Central Freeway: US 101 is long and this has a good amount of history Cypress Street Viaduct: I-880 is short, but this was a notable collapse Eastshore Freeway: I-80 is long, and this probably has enough history Grove-Shafter Freeway: merge to SR 24? James Lick Skyway: I-80 is long but this is very short --NE2 14:49, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows ( full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to
report bugs and
request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a
"news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none
parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at
Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

I have been reviewing citation templates. Most CA highway articles use {{ Cite CAstat}}. From the uses, these appear to be California statutes related to highways. The main template provides parameters for the legislative bodies, but none of the uses I checked implement these. This leaves the citations missing critical information. Fro example, the citation in California State Route 7 reads:
Which is not at all complete, nor useful. One of the issues may be in that there is no documentation for this template. These citations really need to be fleshed out. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) talk 20:51, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the WP 1.0 project homepage. — Carl ( CBM · talk) 03:04, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
I recently came across a Flickr user who has scanned images of many San Francisco area freeway/bridge proposals from the 1940s and 50s. http://www.flickr.com/photos/walkingsf/sets/72157622139053795/ Thought I'd mention it here in case these might be useful in crafting part of the history section in some related highway articles. -- LJ ↗ 18:49, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
We are now subscribed for popular pages (like the US one at WP:USRD/PP - see Wikipedia:WikiProject California State Highways/Popular pages. (Unfortunately we just missed August, so we'll have to wait a month). -- Rs chen 7754 04:08, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
After a recent request, I added WikiProject California State Highways to the list of projects to compile monthly pageview stats for. The data is the same used by http://stats.grok.se/en/ but the program is different, and includes the aggregate views from all redirects to each page. The stats are at Wikipedia:WikiProject California State Highways/Popular pages.
The page will be updated monthly with new data. The edits aren't marked as bot edits, so they will show up in watchlists. You can view more results, request a new project be added to the list, or request a configuration change for this project using the toolserver tool. If you have any comments or suggestions, please let me know. Thanks! Mr. Z-man 01:13, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
An article that you have been involved in editing, County Route S18 (California) has been nominated for a good article reassessment. If you are interested in the discussion, please participate by adding your comments here . If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status will be removed from the article. -- Admrboltz ( talk) 00:25, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows ( full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to
report bugs and
request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a
"news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none
parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at
Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.
Message sent by User:Addbot to all active wiki projects per request, Comments on the message and bot are welcome here.

It has been suggested that this project be merged into WikiProject California as a task force since it might be inactive or semi-active after reviewing this project that it appears that there have not been any active discussion on the talk page in some time and the only content updates appear to be simple maintenance so being supported by a larger project might be beneficial. If you have questions or comments, please let us know. JJ98 ( Talk / Contributions) 08:31, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
I have been reviewing citation templates. Most CA highway articles use {{ Cite CAstat}}. From the uses, these appear to be California statutes related to highways. The main template provides parameters for the legislative bodies, but none of the uses I checked implement these. This leaves the citations missing critical information. Fro example, the citation in California State Route 7 reads:
Which is not at all complete, nor useful. One of the issues may be in that there is no documentation for this template. These citations really need to be fleshed out. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) talk 20:51, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion taking place at WT:HWY regarding the potential use of coordinates in highway articles. Your input is welcomed. -- Rs chen 7754 01:53, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
My GPS always says CA-1 instead of SR-1. Why is SR-1 used, it doesn't make sense, no one in California says SR-1! -- Gimelthedog ( talk) 23:53, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
There is a proposal to demote all state highway WikiProjects to task forces; see WT:USRD. -- Rs chen 7754 05:07, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
