I sure hope that this project isn't shutting down. It would be unfortunate for us to cave to the opinions of non-content contributors at an RfC who probably don't even know how to read a map. Bneu2013 (talk) 02:16, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've marked the page as per this. 20:59, 23 September 2023 (UTC)

I just want to state for the record that I intend to continue maintenance of Washington articles as well as those I brought up to GA status in other states. I'm going to be contributing to both projects, albeit with less detail for roads articles on here. Sounder Bruce 04:27, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In reality there are two more alternative sites we can choose from - Justapedia and Encycla. The former is a Wikipedia-like site that forked all contents from here last year and has lenient notability requirements. 5.181.21.208 (talk) 13:30, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

An apparently prolonged problem with the welcome center article

Copied from the United States WikiProject talk page. I know this article isn’t categorized under this WikiProject (it should be) but I’m posting it here too. As evidenced by talk page threads on this subject going back to at least 2018 (which as of this writing was nearly six years ago), there is an issue with certain welcome centers that are listed as being located at an exit that doesn’t exist. I cite two examples in West Virginia, one was listed as “exit” 10 on I-64 eastbound, when the closest exits are exit 8 and exit 11, so the correct terminology would be “mile marker” or “milepost” 10. The other is on I-68 westbound on the first turn off after crossing out of Maryland, it is supposedly located at exit 31, only again, that exit doesn’t exist. The first actual signed exit you encounter going westbound after entering West Virginia is exit 29. Again, it needs to be written as “mile marker” or “milepost”, not “exit”, unless it is signed as an exit (some states do but not all of them, you can probably confirm that on Street View). I corrected those two errors. But someone needs to go and check every single entry on that list and then make sure that the exit actually exists; and if it doesn’t, replace with “mile marker” or the like. Because I imagine those aren’t the only two errors there are in that article. West Virginia WXeditor (talk) 03:31, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Interstate 85 in North Carolina meeting GA criteria?

Hi, everybody. Today, I finished wrapping up what I needed to write for this article. After taking several long looks at it and reading the article over and over, I wasn't sure, but I felt like it might meet GA criteria now (and yes, I know it was stripped of its GA status a few days ago; see the talk page for more information and the reassessment), and it does indeed seem to address all the points in the criteria listed. I haven't nominated it for GAN yet, but if anybody has any comments or feedback, please ping me here. Thanks. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 00:35, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
