Edit protected[edit]

{{editprotected}} In the Major Intersections section, somebody please change Mexican border to Mexico – United States border. I'm carrying this practice to all highway articles under WP:USRD that touch the Mexican border because that article has a new working title. Mgillfr (talk) 02:20, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

At least four dash errors. I've fixed them, as they are beyond the scope of the GA process.
Does part of the road run in Mexico, or is it entirely in the US? Part of the prose makes it seem like it is in part in Mexico.
What route does it continue as in Mexico?
How does ref 4 explain that the route is unaltered since 1972?
- I didn't write this one, but I'm assuming that the author is referring to the fact that the map does indeed show the road today as it was defined in the law. Would the legal definition as it is today be better? --Rs chen 7754 21:05, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Placing on hold. Arsenikk ^(talk) 20:59, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No route in Mexico, and I've removed the sentence in question for Ref 4. It does not serve much encyclopedic purpose. Mitch32^{(Victim of public education, 17 years and counting)} 20:45, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Passed. Arsenikk ^(talk) 20:11, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
