[edit] Crossings navbox

Hi gang! I'm getting confused by the use of the crossings navbox on this article. It was recently changed from "Bridges of the Mississippi" to "Crossings of the Mississippi and Gulf Intracoastal Waterway." But none of the other Mississippi bridges had their navboxes changed. And why is the GIW included? Shouldn't it have its own navbox? And the addition of ferries to the navboxes doesn't help because none of the ferries have articles -- they essentially break the usefulness of the navbox. SPUI, would you explain some of the reasoning behind the changes? I'm including my questions here rather than your talk page because I think perhaps more of the interested parties watch this page.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to getting some resolution here. Apologies if it's been talked out elsewhere already. Robshill 11:46, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

The crossings format is more useful, I suppose. Then again, I had a problem with rail bridges being lumpted together with road bridges, but not a big enough problem to rv everything. I do believe ferries are encyclopedic, and that stubs can be made for those particular ferry crossings. —Rob (talk) 15:14, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

I agree that the Intercoastal Waterway needs to be a seperate navbox if its going to be included. As for ferries, they haven't been included anywhere else along the Mississippi River, but I'm not opposed to their presence. I suggest that a discussion be started on List of crossings of the Lower Mississippi River or List of crossings of the Upper Mississippi River to develop a consensus about whether ferries should be included.
