BL-80
On exit list when you add to Interstate 80 Business (Sacramento, California); the decomd CA-160 designation is unneed. Decomd routes are little importance to WP:ELG and ELG prohibits colors. Unbuilt is more value to ELG this is why they are always shade in gray means the roads are not built. Freewayguy -- Meet 02:29, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

It tends to be used for more general notes; if the ramps actually connect to another road that then serves as a connection, that's not really important to the overall design of the interchange. --NE2 08:17, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

California State Route 160

 * It depends if left exits are important enough to mention - I'm not sure that they are. But it's definitely not useful to mention that it's the south and north end of SR 160, and the fact that it's an onramp to Bus. 80 eastbound is obvious from looking at the list (and the entrance at exit 47B would serve the same purpose), and it's not true because you can exit at Arden Way. The shields in the "end of freeway" colspans are very unnecessary. --NE2 16:05, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, the entrance at exit 47B does serve the same purpose. The exit was originally for Royal Oaks Drive only. Exposition Boulevard dead-ended a few yards west of Tribute Road until the mid-1990s when it was extended to Leisure Lane and the SR 160 ramps. PhATxPnOY916 (talk) 02:04, 30 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi, I was wondering, do you believe it's perfectly okay to integrate our changes with others' to the exit lists? I actually believe that your changes are for the better intentions. For example, making a note of a 'left' exit is nothing wrong, as well as writing down "south end of SR XX." How do you think we can exemplify our revisions if NE2 keeps reverting them and getting rid of all our changes? This is Wikipedia, not NE2's house. In my opinion, this is unacceptable. What do you plan to do about it? There has to be a better consensus in which we all can agree on. AL2TB  Gab or Tab 22:41, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Of course it is. Thank you, I appreciate it. All I've been doing was following guidelines from the WP:ELG. Plus, I've tried to follow a similar approach of NE2's way of exit lists in other articles lately, only to get slapped in the face with "redundant" and "unneccessary". I guess we all have to come to some sort of compromise, like sticking with the county abbreviations in the mileposts. PhATxPnOY916 (talk) 02:04, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, don't worry too much about those words. He's always going against consensus. Are you aware of the ongoing NE2's arbitration? AL2TB  Gab or Tab 05:13, 30 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I added the left exit note. There's no reason to say that it's the south end; that's clear from the infobox, and was actually incorrect how you were doing it, since the south end is SR 4, not SR 4 west. --NE2 22:43, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but I don't see the note. Can you show me your revision? AL2TB  Gab or Tab 22:52, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * At exit 46B: "Northbound left exit and southbound entrance" --NE2 16:53, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

County Route E2 (California)
Another editor has added the "prod" template to the article County Route E2 (California), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also What Wikipedia is not and Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the prod template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

SR 78
Can you help merge the intersection list with exit list? I'm still having little trouble building exit list.-- Freewayguy ( Meet ) 22:50, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * It took me awhile, but I got it done. PhATxPnOY916 (talk) 02:42, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

January 2008
Hi, the recent edit you made to California State Route 78 has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

Postmile abbreviations
Nobody objected to putting the abbreviations in the county column rather than the postmile column; see the bottom of Wikipedia talk:WikiProject California State Highways. Thank you. --NE2 12:46, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't see any changes that were corrections rather than formatting changes, except for the closed eastbound entrance. --NE2 08:40, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
 * NE2 started a discussion regarding to the removal of the county abbreviations at WT:ELG. I, for one, would certainly love to hear your opinion, and I'm sure others will, too. ^_^ AL2TB ^_^ 18:18, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

California State Route 162
Can you help me change to exit list formats? Because I'm nominating the CAint tables for deletions.-- Freewayguy ( Meet ) 01:42, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I finished reconstructing the list. Have a look at it. --PhATxPnOY916 (talk to me) 09:32, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Caltrans' designated freeways
There is NE2's discussion for Wikipedia talk:WikiProject California State Highways. Some time ago, you added a note to the junction list in US 395 (CA) that US 395 is a freeway at an interchange with SR 70 (CA). That short segment is officially considered a freeway, but NE2 does not believe that your notes in the junction list should belong there. Would you like to say something in the discussion in the link provided above? Thank you! ^_^ AL2TB ^_^ 04:13, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Don't listen to NE2
NE2 keeps reverting my edits that directions of I-40 and SR 58 are not needed which is needed on Interstate 15 in California exit list. My advice, don't trust him and don't listen to him. If you have problems with him ask Rschen7754 to have this user blocked for disruption and assuming ownership of articles. --75.47.156.80 (talk) 22:06, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, I've had problems with him before, especially with areas I know about very well, like around Sacramento and surrounding areas. Now I'm just being tolerable and focusing on little edits that don't result in an edit war. I've even provided photos in a couple of talk areas of the article to prove a point. I agree with your edits, though. Even though Caltrans doesn't sign them on the BGS's, I think it's important to add the direction the route number is traveling towards. – PhATxPnOY916   (talk to me)  01:03, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

To use warning templates, read WP:UTM. --75.47.139.131 (talk) 02:25, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I read up a little on the warning templates. Thanks. I'll try to use them whenever neccessary. – PhATxPnOY916   (talk to me)  09:48, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

NE2 has gone crazy. He is not following consensus at all. My main concern is NE2 made bad faith summary edits (which is consider vandalism) on Interstate 96 saying; (No, that wasn't a joke. Please read the section and notice the links.). He removed an auxilliary interstate route template from the Auxilliary Routes section and Rschen7754 restored it back where it belongs and ask NE2 (please read WP:IH). Well guess what NE2 is not as smart at all. --75.47.139.131 (talk) 02:47, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I see what your saying. I know he doesn't follow consensus. I've been told. It looks like he spends most of his daily life on here anyway according to his contributions trying to revert everybody's edits because it doesn't fit his standards. – PhATxPnOY916   (talk to me)  09:48, 29 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Sometimes NE2 doesn't understand people's questions. He thinks I know everything; while I don't. I don't know much about highways other than California, because most other states I never been to besdie DC, and Chicago/Denver Ariport. And also, he gets upset when people ask him background questions. He say he's not in California, Yea, but doens't mean its true. Also only becasue people say something doesn't mean its neccessairly true. he can be living in Sacramento, or any mountainside.-- Free way guy T C 03:02, 24 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Alexfusco5 has sometimes wrongly revert changes when shouldn't be and gave false warning message, like he have done to SR 78 a while ago. Your changes was valid, and is not a vandal, and ignore that message Alexfusco gave you.-- Free way guy T C 03:12, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

The big problem is that NE2 keeps following me around to continue disruption around articles and user pages. --75.47.158.26 (talk) 23:27, 24 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't think NE2 enjoys undoing 75.47's changes. Sometimes he hooks you up. 75.47's changes sometimes does not conforms to WP:ELG and sometimes this causes NE2 extra works to undo it. If he does not understand and ask us for help, its another thing.-- Freewayguy Call? Fish 20:22, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't think anybody enjoy reverting edits neither do I. Changing from handwritten to is not a unconstructive, just pointless. I know the time when I only do one. It's better not to do that unless I'm preparing to change the shields or when I'm updating or doing something else like fixing the exit list. And when I want to do it, its better to do to all of it, otherwise people just going to twonder what the heck was different between June and August.-- Freewayguy Call?

"South/north end of freeway" or "South/north end of freeway on SR XX"?
Hi PhATxPnOY916. I remembered that not too long ago I introduced the idea of adding "South/north end of freeway on SR XX" when a route has an overlap in a freeway segment in another route. I'm debating whether we should really say "on SR XX" in the "South/north end of freeway" notes because the wording may be a bit vague to an outside reader. Anyways, I'd like to hear your input about it. :) -- M*gill*FR (blab to me) 23:40, 19 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi Mgillfr. I was kind of thinking about that myself. I think it would be okay to leave "South/North/West/East end of freeway on SR/I/US XXX" as it is since it is on another route's freeway/highway segment, but for me, it wouldn't really matter. I'd be fine with it either way. I guess that's my take on it.


 * Plus, I think listing the superior route's destinations on the major intersections/exit list is actually better (for example, State Route 14's exits listed on State Route 138's list instead of listing "See SR 14"). That way, the reader won't have to go to the superior route's article to read the list, especially when lists like US 101 and I-5 are so long. So I like that idea. =) – PhATxPnOY916   (talk to me)  01:10, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I think we are both fine with it, so I guess we can settle it at that. :) Anyways, I also noticed that you sure fixed up nearly all the junction lists in California (which is awesome work!), but I've always wondered where did you get the control cities from? I tried using Google Maps street view, but when I try to zoom in on a spot that shows a photo of the sign, the control cities are always blurry and illegible from the picture. How did you find the control cities? -- M*gill*FR (blab to me) 03:54, 20 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Thank you. You're not doing too bad yourself. Yeah, about the control cities: sometimes on Google Maps street view... yes, the signs sometimes are blurry and sometimes are legible. It's kind of a trick, but what I do is I try to make out what the blurred sign says, like the length of the word, space between words and/or if the mileage number is single, double or triple. Then I go back to regular street map view, make out the estimated distance between the route and the destination and sort of figure it out that way. For example, I edited State Route 135's list recently and on Google Maps street view, I saw a tiny mileage sign on southbound State Route 135 (Broadway) in Santa Maria approaching State Route 166 (Main Street). It was small and blurry, but I noticed that the city name was kind of long and the mileage number was a single digit. I switched back to regular map view and estimated where it was leading to and saw that it was referring to the city of Guadalupe. That's how I kind of know.


 * Of course, if a sign is too illegible and can't make out what it says where it leads on Google Maps street view, I usually leave the entry alone, unless one day I'll pass through that particular area and know what it really says, which is also another way I find out. =D – PhATxPnOY916   (talk to me)  07:21, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Regarding South/north/west/east end of freeway on I/SR/US XX
I thought of a better idea of listing the freeway termini with overlapped routes. How about if, for example, for SR 46: if the south/north end of freeway on US 101 is also the south/north end of of the US 101 overlap, can we change, for example: "South end of freeway on US 101" to "South end of freeway at south end of US 101 overlap"? Would you agree to it, or would you have any ideas or oppositions to this? Thanks for reading this. -- M*gill*FR (blab to me) 22:41, 27 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm not really opposed to it. My only concern is that in the notes section, it already says "north/south/east/west end of I/US/SR XXX" and there may be some opposition regarding the idea of "north/south/east/west end of freeway at north/south/east/west end of I/US/SR XXX overlap" from other editors. So you probably have to get input from others, but for me, I can go for the idea. – PhATxPnOY916   (talk to me)  00:36, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

"Incomplete access" on exit lists
Hi there. I'm curious why you are classify full three-way interchanges, and other similar interchanges, where a highway terminates as "incomplete access". For example, the I-5 - I-210 interchange near Sylmar (that I just reverted). As 210 terminates here with the 5, traffic from the 210 can go either north to Sacramento or south to downtown LA. Meanwhile, traffic from either direction on the 5 can get onto the 210. So how is this "incomplete access" when someone coming in from a given direction has access to the other two directions? It would only be incomplete if the 210 actually continued to the west, and there were no ramps connecting it to the 5.

What I would define as "incomplete" is a two-way interchange like the 5-99 interchange near Wheeler Ridge, where traffic on the 99 is forced to go on southbound 5; there isn't a ramp connecting southbound 99 with northbound 5, nor a ramp from southbound 5 to northbound 99. Thanks. Zzyzx11 (talk) 08:18, 23 March 2011 (UTC)


 * I knew I was skeptical about those interchanges, despite it being said "northbound/southbound/eastbound/westbound exit and southbound/northbound/westbound/eastbound entrance". I'll go back to some of the articles and make some changes. – PhATxPnOY916   (talk to me)  09:45, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Just a FYI - the syntax for jctbridge has changed. You need to use state=CA, |exit if needed, and postmile= (with a nbsp if there is no postmile). This is due to our postmile system and our having to code special scenarios for CA. :/ --Rschen7754 08:36, 18 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Alright, I'll keep that in mind. – PhATxPnOY916   (talk to me)  08:47, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, we finally got km conversions across the rest of the US tonight. We're hoping to bring that to the Interstates in CA since Caltrans has posted statewide mileages, but there's still some coding that needs to be fixed. --Rschen7754 09:27, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
