Suggest a re-word (I tend to avoid using the word "got" in professional writing) ... although US-395 was one of the few U.S. Highways serving California to remain intact after the 1964 state highway renumbering it was truncated in 1969 due to an extension of I-15?
Also need to resolve the discrepancy in dates, the US 395 article says 1969, the I-15 articles says 1979, both dates are sourced to California government sites, but both links appear to not be working, so I couldn't verify. (It's possible both are correct, it's possible the highway lost the US-395 designation in 1969 but did not officially become part of I-15 until 1979).Dave (talk) 18:58, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
@Kevon kevono: we don't use external links in the middle of prose like that. External links are supposed to be confined to footnotes/reference sections, or the "external links" section. Also, we should never be citing the cahighways.org page as it is a self-published source (SPS). How about:
How's that? Imzadi 1979  22:57, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
But California wasn't renumbered, the state renumbered its highways. Also, Kevon kevono, you should always sign your posts with the four tildes so that the bot doesn't have to insert the unsigned template. Imzadi 1979  02:13, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
With that said, I know that most of the articles linked inappropriately list this trivial detail in the lead. Hopefully I'll get off my duff and fix that by then.Dave (talk) 16:53, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
