Route Information

Should it be mentioned in the route information that this is an auxiliary route of I-35? NintendoTTTEfan2005 (talk) 22:49, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kickapoo Turnpike → Interstate 335 (Oklahoma) – That is what the highway now officially is. Georgia guy (talk) 01:53, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. This is similar to how I felt on Talk:Capital Beltway#Requested move 12 April 2020. WP:COMMONAME is generally preferred over official names, and natural disambiguation is generally preferable over parenthetical disambiguation. Since this turnpike was officially numbered as Interstate 335 only last month, I doubt there has been that enough time for it to now become the common name.

Yeah, I don't really see any point in changing this article's name. They are basically the same thing, so changing the name seems useless. But I guess will have to wait until the highway has been fully signed for awhile and consider what to do from there. NintendoTTTEfan2005 (talk) 02:11, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose until re-signed, then reconsider based on WP:NAMECHANGE, even if it overrules a COMMONNAME used by the general public. TheDoctorWho (talk) 03:20, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I live in the OKC metro, and I can say for a fact that even when the interstate signs go up, it will still mainly be called the Kickapoo Turnpike. If that changes, we can switch to the interstate designation as the article title, but until then, we should stick with WP:COMMONAME. ChessEric 21:20, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose No need. Greggens (talk) 21:59, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
