The proposed split

G'day Life200BC,

I saw your proposal on "List of road routes in New South Wales"

I've done something, is that what you are talking about? I have submitted this article so see the link below. It has just national highways but there soon shall be one for the others.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:List_of_former_national_highways_in_New_South_Wales

Also, who duplicated the list. I think it's kinda unnecessary and especially that I don't like lists that aren't very attractive. IMHO, this clutters up the page and provides little benefit.

If the message sounds incomplete, it's because I copy-pasted it onto the List of road routes in New South Wales page and added the last sentence.

@The Savannah Way: That page looks nice and would be a nice stand alone article, but I was talking about simply copying and pasting out the tables and putting them in a new list article, because the current one is cluttered due to the many routes and the duplication which was done by User:Thent1234 who is now banned. I'm surprised that they haven't removed those duplications by now. Life200BC (talk) 09:54, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

@Life200BC: I'm simply going to remove the duplications on List of road routes in Victoria. No one will have the time to do unnecessary duplication for that page. For the NSW page, I don't know who started the duplication, (thent1234 or thegwh32). But they did it without consultation. Both started without any notice and on the same day. I think I'll leave the NSW and the NT one simply because I think it's complete and I'll leave it. Only thent1234 edited the NT article which now he's gone, I am afraid to touch it. Anyway, I don't really know too much about alphanumerics, or national highways etc. other than my few sources, ozroads and expressway.

@Life200BC: Copy pasting it wouldn't look good. I see AussieLegend is reverting both thent1234 and thegwh32's work so progress is happening. THe only revert I had to make is on the template because I'm pretty crap at tables and he put some shields so it was easy for me.

So unless you do something like List of road routes in Victoria (numeric) which again, thent1234 has messed up, and looks ugly, I suggest we do this format. Also, i see some removals of Q-Met 7. Is it true that it didn't exist?
