 * BL|BL 1957=
 * BS|BS 1957=

I would like to add in some additions and/or changes to the Interstate Business Route and Interstate Business Spur terminology for Arizona and Texas.

 * Red question icon with gradient background.svg Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. I'd also like to see it sandboxed to make sure it works as intended.

 * Where would I be able to sandbox this, just out of curiosity? I can't find the sandbox page for this specific area of the template.
 * I understand what MatthewAnderson707 is trying to do, but it's not going to work. The route-segment and loop-number parameters aren't going to work without being passed through from the main template. –Fredddie™ 03:24, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
 * That's a shame. Is there any way I could make it work?&mdash; MatthewAnderson707 (talk|sandbox) 04:58, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Your best bet is to let it be generic and then use name for the outliers. –Fredddie™ 05:51, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Right. I modified my change request to remove the errored entries. Will the draft as shown above work?&mdash; MatthewAnderson707 (talk|sandbox) 06:22, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

 * {{u|MatthewAnderson707}}, could you implement it in the sandbox? It would be a lot easier to evaluate then. --Trialpears (talk) 12:18, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
 * {{ping|Trialpears}} Absolutely. Can you please point me in the direction of the sandbox?
 * {{u|MatthewAnderson707}}, at Template:Infobox road/name/USA/sandbox. While it hasn't been created yet it's common practice to create it whenever you need to test something. Since this is a subtemplate you may need to update Template:Infobox road/sandbox to use your sandbox version, but I think it's taken care of in this case. Finally add a testcase at Template:Infobox_road/testcases/USA where your changes are used and check so it doesn't break any of the other testcases. ‑‑Trialpears (talk) 17:44, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
 * {{u|Trialpears}} I got my coding refined to something I believe will work. The only problem is I can't get the subtype parameter to work in the sandbox templates at all. Can you help please?&mdash; MatthewAnderson707 (talk|sandbox) 21:39, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
 * {{u|MatthewAnderson707}}, very sorry I didn't look at this more quickly. It seems like it has all been implemented now, correct? If not I will make sure to help you more quickly this time. ‑‑Trialpears (talk) 11:25, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * {{ping|Trialpears}} It's fine. Thanks for helping me through this as much as you did. I was able to solve the sandbox issue. It works just fine now. Fredddie was able to implement most of the changes I made that were worth implementing. The testcases for the most part came through just fine.&mdash; MatthewAnderson707 (talk|sandbox) 23:05, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

Business Loop and Business Spur Additions/Modifications
This is a modified part of an earlier request to work with only existing template parameters. I'm leaving New Mexico out of this because that would require extra additions/modifications to the main template.

Currently the BL/BS section looks like this:
 * BL|BL 1957=
 * BS|BS 1957=

I would like to request the following additions:
 * BL|BL 1957=
 * BS|BS 1957=

Thanks.&mdash; MatthewAnderson707 (talk|sandbox) 16:09, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

Arizona State Route changes/additions
I would like to request the following changes to the AZ parameter of SR section of the template from this: |AZ=State To this: |AZ= &mdash; MatthewAnderson707 (talk|sandbox) 16:30, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
