message: I recently created a Speed Limit table (shown below) which was removed. Is this information not relevant to the topic? Is it not encyclopedic? Should it be in prose and placed as part of the Route Description? Were my citations not sufficient?

replies: text: I removed it because it looked horrible as a chart, I can say add it as prose, not with the italics and it has to have better sources.Mitch32(Go Syracuse) 09:49, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I placed the speed limits into the route description and added references that go directly to street views on google maps, the speed limit signs in sight. Hopefully this is sufficient. --JBC3 (talk) 05:03, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Speed Limits removed 

message: The article itself says that the county only maintains Route 254 along Quaker Road, a fact that is supported by the Queensbury Highway Department and from the USGS map (used by the NYSDOT), which labels Quaker Road with CR47 and CR70 but no CR32B. The only sources (that I am aware of) that allege the existence of a CR32B are maps with Jimapco cartography. Because of this, a subsection has been added to the bottom of the route description noting the discrepancy between sources. A quick call to Warren County Department of Public Works (518)761-6556 confirms the following (which is already supported by the facts provided): 1. there is no County Route 32B; 2. Quaker Road is the only part of Route 254 maintained by Warren County; 3. only two County Routes (signed or otherwise) are designated along that stretch, namely CR47 and CR70. --JBC3 (talk) 18:44, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: No, the Warren County's map itself, which I have, says 32B in the Warren inset.3 1/2 years of Mitch32 21:12, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Is this the map that is currently used as a reference in the Discrepancies section (reference 13)? The one with Jimapco cartography? This section deals with that. I removed CR32B from the lead, as seemed appropriate from WP:UNDUE, but retained the information elsewhere because the discrepancy is both verifiable and prominent (being in a Warren County map itself for a significant period of time). Not only do the Queensbury Highway Department and USGS not recognize a Route 32B, but neither do Yahoo Maps and Google Maps. Although it cannot be used as a reference (due to WP:OR), Warren County DPW confirmed via phone that there is no 32B, as stated above. --JBC3 (talk) 02:12, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

text: Thanks, TMF, I'm okay with scrapping the subsection and all mention of CR32B if there is no objection. --JBC3 (talk) 22:01, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
