[edit] Road names

[edit] Sorted by county
Here is a list of routes sorted by county:

[edit] Naming conventions
Please change the names in the list to "Nevada State Route x" since that is where the articles are. If you can get consensus to change it to your convention then fix the list, but for now it's an inconvenience. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 01:43, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- Is there a reason why the format in this last change is desirable? Vegaswikian 02:08, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- They are commonly known as "Nevada State Route"s. If you were in Georgia you would refer to one of these as "Nevada State Route"s. We have an entire ArbCom case on this. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 02:29, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
They are commonly known as State Route X. --SPUI (T - C) 04:35, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Naming convention
Since Nevada seems to follow California on most issues, is there a problem using WikiProject California State Highways structure as the standard for the Nevada state highway names? Vegaswikian 22:39, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:State route naming conventions poll/Part2
This state's highway naming convention is up for debate above. Feel free to participate. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 05:48, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
