Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Freeways in metropolitan Detroit
for several reasons. - (1) By , this list should not be merged into the article Metro Detroit as that article is already at optimum length. Additionally, the Metro Detroit article has numerous navigational boxes (including the referenced navbox template) within the body of the article. I don't think that this is preferred style. (2) I don't see the redundancy identified as warranting deletion of this list article. This list provides a summary of information not found in the navbox template (e.g., the names of these freeways within the metro area). This summary cannot be provided within the limitations of a navbox. (3) I like the format of Metropolitan Phoenix freeways and would like to think that this article could eventually be expanded and changed from list format to more prose like that one. If anyone wants to create an article Transportation in metropolitan Detroit which covered all modes of transport, this list article could be merged into that. Until then, this list has merit to me
