263 is also missing, not sure if used at this moment or just planned: https://cnac.ca/area_code_maps/canadian_area_codes.htm 104.156.66.98 (talk) 22:57, 21 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Confusing/Conflicting entries

edit

Right now, the following listing appears under "Current": "475 overlays 203 in southwestern Connecticut."

...and the following listing appears under "Pending and Planned": "959 is to overlay Connecticut's 860. As with 475/203, it was proposed in 1999,[1] but withdrawn.[5]"

The wording of the latter entry is confusing, because it implies that 959/860 and 475/203 were both proposed in 1999, but withdrawn, leaving me wondering if 475/203 was withdrawn or not. I'm guessing what was actually meant was, "...As with 475/203, 959/860 was proposed in 1999, however 959/860 was withdrawn"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Katerine459 (talkcontribs) 19:23, 6 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Is this article really needed?

This list article is severly out of date, missing many new overlay complexes. For more many years, NANP area codes have only been added by the overlay method. This makes one wonder about the usefulness of this list. Undoubtedly, the content can be obtained from List of North American Numbering Plan area codes, which is updated routinely, while this article is not. kbrose (talk) 15:55, 3 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
