Notability
editEh... could someone please explain to me how this parkway is notable as per Wikipedia:Notability? I'd prod it, but I get the feeling it'd be removed in no time... Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 01:52, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- 35 hours have passed and I'm prodding it now. My concern is that there is not even any real assertion of notability, except for The road is notorious for speeding and aggressive driving because police enforcement along the road is difficult without a breakdown lane. I'm going to AfD this if someone removes the prod, for sure. Save me the hassle. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 11:26, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
- Wow, prod removed after two minutes. A new record. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 11:27, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
- It's a major road in Boston, with 1680 hits in the Google News Archive: [1] --NE2 11:30, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
- Sure, but those are just news that happened ON Storrow Drive. Not ABOUT Storrow Drive. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 11:32, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
- Anyways, see the afd. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 11:33, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Reverse the Curse sign
editWhich bridge is it on anyway? I think its the Longfellow Bridge, though the uploader said Logan Bridge which is spurious. -- Kendrick7talk 21:04, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Removed "Reverse the Curse"
editThis entry does not rise to encyclopedia entry value. It's the kind of thing they put at the end of the local news, with the News Babe giggling while she reads it. "Humourous Trivia" doesn't cut it. MarkinBoston 14:48, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
Merge proposal
edit- The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the proposal was merged. – TMF 23:36, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
According to Route C9's article, Route C9 was a designation for Storrow Drive from the 1950s to the 1970s. Thus, the routings and history of both overlap and Route C9 should be merged here. – TMF 22:11, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- I fully agree, merge MA C9 into Storrow Drive. Dough4872 22:41, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- C9 has a bit more to it than Storrow Drive but in its present state, merging it somewhere is probably the best option. Storrow Drive being a major portion of it is a good place. MA 9 might be another. --Polaron | Talk 00:06, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
- At least for now, I support the merger. Should further writing and research get done in the future, C9 can always be split back out later. Imzadi 1979 → 08:36, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
