[edit] Nomenclature

At the risk of setting off another edit war (which I sincerely am trying to avoid), I have revised this page. I hope this compromise works. We are not writing an AASHTO tome here; we are providing an encylopedia for everyone. Kablammo 00:04, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

And if we really want to get technical, the road is formally Legislative Route 164. (The numbering system for Minnesota Constitutional and Legislative Routes is different from the numbers by which they are publicly known.) Kablammo 00:26, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

I see my attempt was unsuccessful. Interestingly, even the official Minnesota State Highway Map put out by MnDOT does not use the "Trunk Highway" or "TH" terminology in its map key.[1] As far as the public is concerned, this is a "State Highway." Kablammo 15:55, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Its a road... who cares! This is an encyclopedia and not an atlas. (My take, almost all of these road articles should be deleted and being a violation of WP:NOT) Blueboar 16:01, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] For crying out loud...

We've had 41 edits on this article. Nearly 25% is reverts? Okay we have move warring, massive vandalism tagging, edit warring, and whatnot going on here? And editors being scared away from projects and from Wiki for good? How is this not disruption? By all parties here. I'm submitting this to protection. All of you ought to be ashamed. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 22:16, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Oh yes and vandalism. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 22:26, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

I know I am. Just apply a block as long as you think is appropriate. I'll be back in town on Saturday, the 5th, so my block will have to continue into next week for it to be effective. (I'm editing via borrowed wireless access and/or a dialup connection while I'm on vacation.)

I should have never created this article in the first place -- under any title. Elkman (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) 01:20, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Personally, even vandalism gets like 4 warnings. I don't think it's blockable, but if an admin disagrees with me, I'll stand corrected.

Yeah a lot of us feel that way too. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 04:51, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
