editThe intent of this article seems not to be a disambiguation, but a list of two highway segments which comprise the entity known as the Redwood Highway. I recently de-dabbed the page and project assessments, but those were undone without comment. Perhaps I misunderstand what the article is about?
I stumbled onto this article from Interstate 5 in Oregon which seems to use it as an identified entity, since neither entry alone makes sense—only both. —EncMstr (talk) 19:15, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
- By necessity, this needs to be a "set index" page - otherwise, we wind up with a content fork, which is against Wikipedia guidelines. --Rschen7754 20:22, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
- I don't understand. The two roads mentioned are contiguous. How does that contribute to a content fork? It seems to me that having this page as a disambiguation creates the problem. —EncMstr (talk) 20:59, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Content fork defines what one is, but basically, the information would be duplicated between U.S. Route 101 in California/U.S. Route 199 and Redwood Highway. That's how it would be a content fork. --Rschen7754 21:53, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

- Per WP:SETINDEX, "a set index article is not a disambiguation page". It is perfectly OK to keep this as a list instead of duplicating content. Zzyzx11 (talk) 09:55, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
