Well thatll teach me  I wrote a big long response and it didnt show up  I must have just looked at the preview and not made sure I actually saved it  Anyway Holy copy and paste Batman  Would someone mind pointing out to me where in my previous post I said anything about parenthetical disambiguation that would lead SPUI to believe I misunderstand it  Unlike my previous posts not once did I mention anything about parentheses or articles titled State Route  Washington  The purpose of my previous post was not to debate disambiguation methods rather it was to show SPUI through reason something I will continue to do PHenry fruitless or not that people do call these roads Washington State Route XX and it is a valid more complete name  Perhaps SPUIs misunderstanding came from my statement The question here is not what do people inside a certain state call their own state route  Wikipedia is for a global audience  In titling our articles we have the unique task of figuring out what to call a state highway without having defined the state first  I suppose I shall try to explain that further Wikipedia is a global encyclopedia  This means that we are not concerned with what the state of Washington calls their own state routes we are concerned with what the globe calls them  The official name does matter particularly when determining whether to title the articles State Route or State Highway or State Road or something else entirely but it does not end at the official name  Lets take PHenrys Charles I example from our debate on Wikipedia talkWikiProject California State Highways and pretend for a moment with me that were talking about living kings although it truly doesnt matter  A peasant in England would undoubtedly refer to his king as simply Charles I just as a peasant in Spain would refer to his king as simply Charles I  According to your logic SPUI we would title these articles Charles I England and Charles I Spain since that is what people in those countries call their own kings  Notice how I understand perfectly well what disambiguation means  But thats not what these articles are titled  Why not  Well the English subject would refer to the Spanish king by the more complete name of Charles I of Spain just as the Spanish subject would refer to the English king by the more complete name of Charles I of England in order to disambiguate from their own kings  Furthermore someone from neutral Australia would refer to both kings by their more complete names to disambiguate them from each other since if they said just Charles I it would not be clear which country they were talking about  Here on Wikipedia we use the global more complete names The global more complete name for  is Washington State Route   The reason search results for phrases like washington state route are so much lower than washington state route is because people rarely have to refer to a state route without it already being clear what state they are talking about but this exactly what one has to do when titling an article in a global encyclopedia  There are still plenty of search results to show that it is a valid more complete name  I apologize for not linking to my search results in my previous post but here are two I found particularly interesting from the National Park Service and from the US Fish and Wildlife Service two federal government agencies Did you notice how Travisl said WA SRXX at the end of his post  Short for Washington State Route I noticed how you still have conveniently failed to answer my question  What would you call  As proof that I do understand disambiguation let me explain it to you  WPD outlines a variety of different methods for disambiguation  Parenthetical disambiguation in the form of A B does in fact refer to a topic whose proper name is A and is used when there is another topic called A that as PHenry explained also on the WPCASH talk page has equal right to the name A and would be disambiguated with the form A C  Another way of stating this equal right theory is that when a user types A into the search box theres a fairly equal chance they would be searching for A B or A C and further when a user is searching for A B or A C they would be likely to type A into the search box  But keep in mind that parentheses are not the only way to disambiguate according to WPD  WPD also outlines the more complete names method and clearly states that it should be used
