Bloated list of SPUI interchanges with little value. Millbrooky (talk) 23:23, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Indiscriminate information and very hard to source. On top of it, this would be very hard to maintain as a complete list. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 23:29, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Aside from roadgeeks (raises hand) I don't see who has any interest in these making them notable. If there were a roadgeek Wikia it would fit right in, but it's well below encyclopedic. Include a few illustrative examples in the SPUI article, but a list is just an invitation to "add your local SPUI here". --Dhartung | Talk 23:31, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Indiscriminate, unmaintainable, unencyclopedic, cruft-magnet. A few examples in the main article suffice. Nick Graves (talk) 00:00, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Just as I posted on the article's discussion page about 4 months ago. Looks like TMF & NE2 would concur. The roadgeek in me just couldn't bring me around to nominating it myself... I still get a tear to my eye thinking about when I nominated the list of roundabouts. --Bossi (talk • gallery • contrib) 00:41, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Dhartung. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:57, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- They forgot the intersection of Lake Avenue and Interstate 35 in Duluth, Minnesota. I think Lake Street (Minneapolis) at Hiawatha Avenue qualifies as a SPUI as well. I nearly got run over at this intersection when bicycling through it a weekend or two ago, on a trip to take photos of buildings on the National Register of Historic Places. I'm trying to populate a list that's much more notable and much more maintainable than this list of interchanges, which should be deleted. --Elkman (Elkspeak) 04:10, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge to SPUI. I hate snowball deletes, which is where this is headed. I think this "Single-point-urban-interchanges-allidocious" list could go into the parent article. Mandsford (talk) 19:22, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Do you have any input on its potential to clutter the main article; and how to maintain a list which is likely to become bloated & difficult to keep up-to-date to ensure completeness & accuracy? If there's some way to keep this sort of info, then the roadgeek in me is all for it; but I just can't see a good way for it to be done. If given the choice between merging it into SPUI and keeping it as a separate list (disregarding outright deletion), then I'd probably opt to keep it as a list. --Bossi (talk • gallery • contrib) 19:46, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Just thought I would point out that all the SPUIs listed under Missouri are in the St. Louis area and that there are plans for 9 more in the St. Louis area alone that are not already listed.The Gwinnet Place CID website has a comment mentioning there are over 300 SPUIs in the US. Way too many to list. --Millbrooky (talk) 20:55, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]- Keep per Wikipedia:Lists (discriminate, organized, and verfiable). Any concerns can be addressed by Wikipedia:SOFIXIT.
