I sure hope that this project isn't shutting down. It would be unfortunate for us to cave to the opinions of non-content contributors at an RfC who probably don't even know how to read a map. Bneu2013 (talk) 02:16, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
I've marked the page as per this. 20:59, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
I just want to state for the record that I intend to continue maintenance of Washington articles as well as those I brought up to GA status in other states. I'm going to be contributing to both projects, albeit with less detail for roads articles on here. SounderBruce 04:27, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
In reality there are two more alternative sites we can choose from - Justapedia and Encycla. The former is a Misplaced Pages-like site that forked all contents from here last year and has lenient notability requirements. 5.181.21.208 (talk) 13:30, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Interstate 20, Scroggins Draw, Texas

The western end of Interstate 20 in Texas is located at an uninhabited place called Scroggins Draw, Texas. The article for that place is being discussed for deletion at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Scroggins Draw, Texas. The location seems to have some notability as the place named for the western terminus of Interstate 20, but being generally unfamiliar with highway articles, I am not able to point out sources that use that place name. Is there someone here who can identify a few reliable sources for that location in their list of highway references? RecycledPixels (talk) 22:06, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

@RecycledPixels: Post-deletion comment: The I-10/I-20 interchange was built on top of the old US-80/US-290 intersection. This OR webpage refers to the intersection and the surrounding settlement, such as it was, as "Davis Mountain Junction", though he also admits that the "toponym does not appear on most maps" including the one that he includes on that page (it's also not in the GNIS database), and, in fact, the description excerpt that he shows just above it simply says "west of San Martine". (A WP search for the latter brings up only a red link on TX-3, two instances of a fictional place, and a company name in a court case.) Bottom line, that solidifies the fact that Scroggins Draw was only ever a physical feature. Mapsax (talk) 01:39, 28 April 2024 (UTC) I fixed the I-20 articles, but there's still more to do.
