Talk:Road surface marking
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Reference to U.S. Standards
I added reference and links to U.S. standards. I'd love to see other standards treated likewise and perhaps a separate section listing them all. MARussellPESE 17:15, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] This article needs to be deleted or merged out of existence
Yo---it looks like we need to delete or merge this mess. We already have excellent articles (all of which were partially researched and written by moi) on Lane, Cat's eye (road), and Raised pavement marker. The reason we cannot have a single article for Pavement marker (roads) is that all English language dialects outside of North America interpret "pavement" to mean what North Americans call a "sidewalk." This was the cause of much controversy in the Cat's eye article (please review the HUGE debate on that article's talk page) and the eventual reason for why it was split up into the two articles that exist now.
Also, the correct term is Botts' dot, not Bot dot, as indicated by all of the articles I have cited in the Raised pavement marker article. --Coolcaesar 01:30, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
- I just did a search on "road marker" and this article (Pavement marker (roads)) shot to the top. I had to dig through Lane to find the Road marking article, which is far superior. I see now that this article (Pavement marker (roads)) is redundant and should go. MARussellPESE 13:11, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
