[edit] South Lake Tahoe

Guys... is South Lake Tahoe on the signs or not? It doesn't appear on [1], but that's from 2000, and may have been replaced. --NE2 04:59, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Huh. So what's on the sign is important? Stratosphere ^{(U T)} 02:45, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Huh? --NE2 23:04, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

This should end the "Placerville vs. South Lake Tahoe-on-the-sign" fiasco: [2]. Here's a caption to go with the photo:

"Howe Avenue (looking north from Folsom Boulevard) at the U.S. Highway 50 interchange. It is also the west end of the east segment of State Route 16. However, the END shield is no longer present."

The interchange was redone a few years ago. PhATxPnOY916 (talk) 01:41, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. --NE2 20:52, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

   Pass/Fail:

   Red links everywhere. Will they be blue links soon?

Looks good to me. I've noted some comments above. Nice job! —Rob (talk) 03:28, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
