Replacement List

As per [1], this list is being replaced. --Tim Sabin (talk) 03:06, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

Elko Tract

When I replaced this list, I left of Elko Tract (SR 380) because I don't see how a tract of land used by the U.S. Government and the Commonwealth of Virginia qualifies as an "institution" or "park". --Tim Sabin (talk) 03:47, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Table style issues

I see a couple issues with this table:

  • As this is a list of state highways, the Route number column should be presented first, followed by the jurisdiction the route is in.
  • Wide misuse of bold text, per MOS:BOLD.
    • The only terms that should be bolded are the State Route numbers in the description column (assuming these are targets of redirects).
    • The institution names should not be bolded unless the name redirects to this list for some reason. Given that many of these institution names have articles, this is likely not the case.
    • Bold route numbers in the lead can be removed, as these terms are bolded properly in the table.

I see this article has had recent activity, so I'll leave it to those editors to address. Please feel free to contact me if you have questions. --LJ (talk) 21:28, 15 March 2010 (UTC) I'm doing those edits now in my sandbox. It may be alittle while, since I'm going out-of-town on business. --Tim Sabin (talk) 01:33, 16 March 2010 (UTC) Done. Didn't take as long as I thought it might. :-) --Tim Sabin (talk) 02:34, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

New Infobox

Why was the infobox that was chosen list primary and secondary routes, and the difference between them? This list was meant to mention state primary routes that service institutions; it has nothing to do with secondary routes. This would serve to confuse more than clarify. --Tim Sabin (talk) 19:17, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
