Adequately covered in Rhode Island Route 5, Rhode Island Route 7, and Rhode Island Route 104. No new information has come out of this article. Westroopnerd (talk) 03:44, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Convert to set index between the Rhode Island Route 5, Rhode Island Route 7, and Rhode Island Route 104 articles, so people searching for the term will be directed to the right articles.  Dough   4872   02:12, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Convert to a set index and move on. The user has been indefinitely blocked or WP:CIR reasons, and if we can take non-bureaucratic shortcuts to deal with the aftermath of the messes left behind, that will be much easier on all concerned. In short: why AFD when other options are much faster?  Imzadi 1979  →   22:57, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Rhode Island Route 7 More than half of the route is RI 7. It is a town road in Mass. and its history can easily be discussed in RI 7. The full name of the road Providence and Douglass Turnpike already redirects appropriately. --Polaron | Talk 16:11, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Additional comment: Please do not convert this to a set index article. I don't see what RI 5 and RI 104 have to do with this road. They just happen to briefly become concurrent with RI 7 in North Smithfield. --Polaron | Talk 16:14, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Rhode Island Route 7 per Polaron. (Changing my previous !vote.) I agree that RI 7 seems to be the primary topic here; creating a set index solely for noting any overlaps serves no encyclopedic purpose and sets a bad precedent. -- Kinu  t/c 15:15, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
