Talk:Regional road (Ireland)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"All speed limit signs were changed to kilometers and most new vehicles in Ireland are sold with either metric only or metric predominant speed gauges although the Irish Government can't insist that car manufacturers do so as it breaks EU legislation."

This statement has nothing to do with regional roads. I think it should be removed. Limbo-Messiah (talk) 14:13, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Move to Regional road (Ireland)?

[edit]

I am currently in the process of adding to and, I hope, improving this article. Without yet going so far as to make a formal proposal for a move, I'm thinking that the article would probably be better entitled Regional road (Ireland), for reasons of clarity and disambiguation: not least because there are other countries in the world with road networks officially called "regional" (notably, in Europe, Finland and Italy -- and I hope to start articles on those other countries' networks soon). What do others think? -- Picapica (talk) 17:05, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No need, it can be solved with a hatnote pointing to a dp. Moving it creates a lot of links to a dp-page. (And I have already cleaned out I guess a few hundred as a result of your work) The Banner talk 17:32, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Erm, doesn't the article already have a "hatnote" (if I understand correctly what is meant by that term)? It's a rather messy one, though, IMHO. Can I take it that what you are suggesting is 1) the creation of a Regional road (disambiguation) page, followed by 2) simplification of the current note to read This article is about regional roads in Ireland. For other uses of the term, see Regional road (disambiguation). If so, that would suit me very well! PS: Sorry if I've given you unnecessary work by obliging you to "clean out" after me. Could you let me know (for future reference) exactly which parts of my editing of the article lead to that necessity? Bij voorbaat dank. -- Picapica (talk) 18:15, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I overlooked the hatnote. But your suggestion seems okay. The Banner talk 21:17, 15 July 2013 (UTC) You created loads of links to disambiguation pages. Graag gedaan! (But a Canadian workmate could not pronounce that...)[reply]
