message: Is there a definitive list of county abbreviations to use somewhere? Currently, for example, these 3 that run through Santa Clara County:
*California State Route 237 uses "SC"
*California State Route 87 uses "SCL"
*Interstate 880 uses "SCC" (and SC because I copied syntax from 237)
So far, so inconsistent...

message: Do any of these go in the browse section of the info box?
*Primary interstates
*Secondary interstates
*US Highways
*Deleted CA highways
*Unconstructed CA highways
This is getting a little confusing... --Rschen7754 18:09, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)
I think the browse section should be kept as one line if possible. atanamir 02:58, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: The state law defining a highway should never be included.  It's redundant with the human-readable description, and it's a primary source.  (And besides, most state laws are copyrighted.  Including large chunks of them here could very well be a copyvio.) --Carnildo 19:23, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

message: The WikiProject says if the junction routes are bold, then that shows the start, end, and discontinuities of the route.  Question is, which route, the article route or the junction route?  I need clarification, please.  Also, do you bold the postmile as well? --Geopgeop 03:34, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The article route. You don't bold the postmile unless you have those weird light blue ones. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 04:08, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

message: I admit I am not fluent in wiki, but I added Highway 26, and it won't update on the Category Page.  I have added a few in the past and they automatically came up on the category listing, but 'ol 26 won't do it.  Help appreciated....explanation would be great too.

thread_title:  Highway 26 problem 

message: (Originally written in the California State Route 210 talk page) For those California State Route articles whose next links point to the Interstate part of itself, CA-15/I-15, CA-210/I-210, CA-238/I-238, those links are only pointing to the present article.  Considering Interstate 80, California State Route 80 redirects to Interstate 80.  But since 15, 210, and 238 already have state routes, there is an issue with coding routeboxes for them.  You do not need to edit routeboxint in the Interstates' articles, their browse boxes are editable for the use of various states.  15, 210, and 238 will need custom written routeboxes, I suppose. --Geopgeop 18:55, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes... I think it's only with CA-110, CA-210, and CA-238 that there's a problem. I guess we could subst:... but then if we edit things in  it becomes a big hassle... --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) My RFA 04:37, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Also CA-905/I-905, though that may change in the future... --Geopgeop 15:19, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I-905 currently redirects to CA-905, so I don't think there's a problem there. I really don't want to change the whole routebox for 3 articles... I might have an idea... let me test it... --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs)  06:40, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Check it out at California State Route 110. It's a little tacky but it sort of works... the other option is redoing the routebox to be , redirecting the old to the new, and adding in the option. And trashing the extra redirects. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs)  07:45, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
