Talk:U.S. Route 19 in Florida

Links in lead and section titles

I removed the links in the bolded title per WP:LS: "Use as few links as possible before and in the bolded title. Thereafter, words used in a title may be linked to provide more detail."

I also removed the links in the section header per WP:MoS: "Section names should not normally contain links, especially ones which link only part of the heading; they will cause accessibility problems." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deigo (talk • contribs) 19:04, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

The link in the bolded title was supposed to lead to the main US 19 page. Therefore it should be revived. ----DanTD (talk) 19:12, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

I moved it to the next time the article said "US 19." Generally, links are kept out of the bold titles. Deigo (talk) 19:18, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

It's bad enough you removed the links, but the bold text is for landmarks and future links. ----DanTD (talk) 20:11, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Look at WP:MOS (text formatting) for info on bold type. Deigo (talk) 22:23, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Tell me something, Diego; Have you seen the state-specific I-95 articles? Are you going to delink and de-bold them too? ----DanTD (talk) 23:44, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

No, I haven't, but just because some articles are linked like that doesn't mean its correct. You can go ahead and redo all of that, but if you ever tried to get the articles past B-class, it would never make it. Take it to someone else if you have a problem.

Agreed with Deigo - furthermore, this article needs a lot of work; hence why I assessed it as stub. --Rschen7754 (T C) 18:30, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, whatever work it needs(and I don't doubt that it does) it looks pretty long for a stub. In any case, removing the links disconnects it from the main U.S. Route 19 article. ----DanTD (talk) 21:52, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

I added a see also at the top. Deigo (talk) 22:03, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

I have a better solution; I'm going to make a whole new US 19 category. ----DanTD (talk) 13:38, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

request -- new category "most dangerous intersections (and/or roads) in USA" ...THX! — Preceding unsigned comment added by GRC411 (talk • contribs) 13:54, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Non-defining, alas. Might make a good list though. (And from my personal experience the dangers (and traffic jams) of US 19 are greatly exaggerated.) - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 17:15, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Merge proposal

Florida State Road 57 is entirely a part of US 19. Dough4872 02:11, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

• Merge per my comments on the SR 63 situation. If the entirety of the state road designation follows a US Highway, there is no point in maintaining a separate article from a Florida state-detail article on that US Highway. By merging the two articles together, and focusing expansion efforts here, two stubs can become one start or C-Class article. Imzadi 1979 → 02:30, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Merge There is no reason to have two bad articles when you can combine them and make a metter article. Especially since 57 is a part of the 19.P0PP4B34R732 (talk) 02:41, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Undecided - Ugh, I shouldn't have mentioned this on the Florida State Road 63 talk page. I'll make a deal with you guys; Today, I'll go to a nearby library, and try to find evidence of the county extension of SR 57. If I can't, I'll join you in the decision to merge it. If you do this though, you're also going to have to merge Georgia-Florida Parkway with U.S. Route 19 in Florida. ----DanTD (talk) 11:40, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

UPDATE - Looks like the answer to that is no. There's a Jefferson CR 57A in Drifton, and a County Extension of Florida State Road 59 in Wakulla and Jefferson Counties, but no such extension of SR 57. I'm afraid I may have to agree to merge it. ----DanTD (talk) 16:27, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
