Formatting changes on I-70 in Utah

edit

Some of your changes will need to be reversed as you've introduced inadvertent inaccuracies.

  • The formal name for some highways in Utah is "State Route X"; the word "State" in that case is part of the proper noun, so "state Route X" is wrong.
  • There's no need to spell out the full name of a highway on first usage, if another one of that type is specified previously. In other words, since the whole article is about I-70 in Utah, and the first sentence starts with "Interstate 70 (I-70)...", then the convention that Interstates are abbreviated as I- with the number is established. There's no need to spell out the full names on first reference for any other Interstates. Likewise once the first US Route/US Highway is mentioned with its abbreviation, there's no need to expand the abbreviation for other US Routes/US Highways. The same also goes for State Routes.
  • Please also note the difference in capitalization and meaning between "Interstate Highway", "interstate highway", "US Route/Highway" and "US route/highway".
    • An "Interstate Highway" is part of the "Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense Highways", while an "interstate highway" crosses state lines. Not all Interstates run interstate; I-96 doesn't leave Michigan at all, and most auxiliary Interstates are also intrastate.
    • A "US Route/Highway" is part of the "United States Numbered Highway System", while a "US route/highway" is any route or highway in the country regardless of type.
  • You've removed non-breaking spaces between the word and number portions of highway names. These special spaces ( ) are used so that if the name appears near the end of a line, the two parts won't be separated by a potential line break.

This:

...State Route 70
is...

instead of this:

...State Route
70 is...

You made a bunch of good changes, but many that weren't so good. I reverted, but please redo what you did keeping my above points in mind, ok? Imzadi 1979  17:34, 22 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Also, not all states use hyphens to abbreviate US Highways, nor do all states call them "U.S. Route"; in some states, they use "U.S. Highway". We try to keep consistent with the abbreviation format and names on a statewide basis. Imzadi 1979  18:33, 22 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Kingsdale Shopping Center

Good job on this article. Just a heads-up though: we don't include store directories in mall articles. Also, I'm surprised you didn't make any mention of the Lazarus/Macy's store, to which I added a reference. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 10:23, 27 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the info! I originally had Lazarus/Macy's listed three times (in its three incarnations), but it might have gotten lost when I was trying to make it not so crazy. --Hopeliz (talk) 15:45, 1 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

  Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to The Time Machine, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Sundayclose (talk) 01:46, 15 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Zoombezi Bay

edit

Hello there, and apologies for my hasty reversion to your edits to Zoombezi Bay/Wyandot Lake here and on the Six Flags Wiki... mainly because I noticed the geolocation for Olentangy Park and the present day Zoombezi Bay didn't line up... until I recalled the park had been moved (so I reverted myself). However, this does behoove the question of verifiability of the "Airplane Ride is Razed." source supposedly from the Columbus Dispatch on April 24, 1956... do you have any way to support this? (scan/link of newspaper in question, other corroborating source, etc.?) —Pippinitis (talk) 04:27, 2 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Olentangy Park, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Skating rink. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
