This needs more references (and easier to read references), but otherwise it is a completed article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Panoptical (talk • contribs) 15:27, 8 December 2006‎ (UTC)

Split Athens loop

Not exactly sure why this was merged, but I see NE2 has proposed a split of the Athens loop material into its own article. I also think it should be split into its own article. What do other people think? TCN7JM 22:42, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

I had asked in either the IRC channel or the WikiProject and was told that it should be merged into this page. If it should not be so, then can someone explain their reasoning? Thanks. Allen (Morriswa) (talk) 23:11, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Also, I just figured out that, if you count unsigned highways, then the southeastern part of this route actually has eight highways concurrent, and should have special mention on the concurrency page. Also, a mention in this section/page should be added. The roads are: US 29 / US 78 / US 129 / US 441 / SR 8 / SR 10 Loop / SR 15 / SR 422! Allen (Morriswa) (talk) 23:22, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

I support splitting out the Athens loop as it has enough of a description and history independent of the SR 10 article to have its own article. Dough4872 00:16, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

I am unsure if it should be re-split out, but, if it gets done or not, it needs a major rewrite. Also, the exit list needs to be revamped correctly. Allen (Morriswa) (talk) 00:28, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

What about it needs a major rewrite? I just wrote the bulk of that route description last December. It has the citations and everything. All it needs is to be touched up, and a couple of missing citations added, if you ask me. TCN7JM 16:31, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought it needed a rewrite. It definitely needs some touching up, but I defer to one of you more experienced editors. If you read the "Bannered routes" section, you will see that there used to be another loop in Washington. Allen (Morriswa) (talk) 04:15, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

Support splitting. It's a beltway, more important than SR 10 (which is mostly a carrier route for US 78). Also: are there other SR 10 Loops? If not, the disambiguation is unnecessary. --NE2 11:49, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Support splitting. It can hold its own. --WashuOtaku (talk) 22:46, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

This page is getting long, what I think is that:

• Each county segment shall become separate articles except for Columbia and Richmond counties
• There shall be a separate article for the concurrency of U.S. Routes 78 and 278 for both segments

Oppose—this highway is only 172 miles in length, so the content just needs to be trimmed down. We don't need a turn-by-turn-by-turn description of the route of a highway at this level of unending detail. There's no precedent for county-level sub articles, nor should there be.

Just to put this in perspective, the following Featured Articles are on highways that are similar in length or longer than this one:

List

California State Route 78 (215 mi.) Interstate 8 (350 mi.) Interstate 69 in Michigan (202 mi.) Interstate 70 in Colorado (450 mi.) Interstate 70 in Utah (232 mi.) Interstate 75 in Michigan (396 mi.) Interstate 80 in Iowa (306 mi.) Interstate 94 in Michigan (275 mi.) Interstate 96 (192 mi.) Kansas Turnpike (236 mi.) M-28 (Michigan highway) (290 mi.) New York State Route 22 (337 mi.) New York State Route 28 (282 mi.) New York State Route 32 (177 mi.) U.S. Route 2 in Michigan (305 mi.) U.S. Route 8 (280 mi.) U.S. Route 16 in Michigan (211 mi.) U.S. Route 23 in Michigan (362 mi.) U.S. Route 25 in Michigan (191 mi.) U.S. Route 30 in Iowa (331 mi.) U.S. Route 31 in Michigan (357 mi.) U.S. Route 41 in Michigan (279 mi.) U.S. Route 50 in Nevada (409 mi.) U.S. Route 131 (270 mi.) U.S. Route 141 (168 mi.) U.S. Route 491 (194 mi.)

So if we can write articles judged to be "Wikipedia's finest work" on these highways without the need to further split them, then we can do the same for this highway. Additionally, this is far from the only article on a highway in Georgia that has suffered from needless verbosity. They all need to be fixed because no one will bother to read these endless walls of text. Imzadi 1979 → 22:56, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
