[edit] Mixed internal and external links

I understand what you're trying to accomplish, but as this template exists today it mixes article references that should be under a "See also" section header, and external links that should be under an "External links" header. I'm not sure you can accomplish the correct split with a single template since these sections may already exist in articles where you add the template. —RandallJones 22:09, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. Also, why is the link to List of ZIP Codes in the United States part of this template?—msh210 18:54, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Per WP:GTL, external links don't belong in a See also section, so I've cleaned up the external links. areacode-info.com is all over; I'm worried it's just to drive traffic to the site for advertising. A link to a 60-year-old area code map hardly seems relevant. There's an internal link to NAMP (and it's free to have an external link to NAMP), so I don't see why it's needed here. -- Mikeblas 10:49, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
