Washington State Route 432

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Subject is a minor 10-mile road that passes through suburban areas on the rural Washington state. Has no coverage except some secondary sources, mainly state transportation department mention. Little coverage in local daily papers, almost all of which is WP:ROUTINE coverage. However, I do admit it cosmetically looks ok, with photos and official looking logos.
 * SNOW keep as a long-standing GA and as a primary state highway (which is deemed notable through dozens of previous AFDs as precedent; see also this FAQ. This nomination is being made as a point in retaliation to 41st Avenue (Vancouver), hence the strange reasoning given.  Sounder Bruce  05:31, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the FAQ link! It says all state highways are notable BUT it is an editor's essay. I looked and state highways are not automatically Wikipedia notable. This article that is subject to this AFD is an obscure article, not like Interstate 70. Aerostar3 (talk) 06:03, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
 * The FAQ cites precedents that were forged at AFD by consensus, which generally allows primary-level state highways to exist as standalone articles. Given that this highway is also an expressway and has a well-documented history, I think that alone would qualify it for general notability.  Sounder Bruce  06:05, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
