Roads are locations
Hmmm, I know Lhyn has gone edit crazy and I like his infobox... it suddenly occurred to me that roads are like settlements and Movie could probably just add a intersection link in the Location infobox to match a location to a road... then there would be no use for all these road categories... thoughts? - Darkwynters (talk) 03:28, April 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes, that works. See the "Roads in Luskan" link in the infobox on this test page. If there is consensus, I will update the infobox templates. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 12:14, April 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * I love it, Movie... It makes sense, Rat Alley, while in Luskan, it is also a road in the Sword Coast North. +1 vote!!! - Darkwynters (talk) 16:34, April 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * I like it too. Feel free to tweak my infobox as needed accordingly. (I'm glad you like the infobox, Dark.) ~ Lhynard (talk) 19:04, April 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Lhyn... one thing, with Movie's interection links, we do not need the Roads to Location categories... like the Settlements categories... can you remove the auto category maker on your infobox so it just creates a link, such as the Traslim's Cut is located in the Castle Ward of Waterdeep. - Darkwynters (talk) 00:29, April 6, 2015 (UTC)


 * Sure. I'll have to go back and add links to all 79 road pages, though, and the weekend is ending, so it will happen slowly over the next week. ~ Lhynard (talk) 01:03, April 6, 2015 (UTC)


 * (The template is fixed though.)


 * I don't think you have to do anything to the road pages, they should be fine. Locations will need the "roads = yes" parameter added eventually, once a road page is made for a particular location. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 18:29, April 6, 2015 (UTC)


 * Movie, what I need to fix is this: I had made it so you put a location, say "Foo", without brackets, and the template would make both the link " Foo  " and the category "Roads in Foo". But now, "Roads in Foo" is generated by your (awesome, by the way,) intersection category, so I changed my template to stop auto-making links and cats. This means that the ~80 pages I edited to add the new template need to be fixed so that "Foo" becomes "  Foo  ", which I'll do this week. (DarkWinters did one for me.) ~ Lhynard (talk) 21:47, April 6, 2015 (UTC)
 * (P.S.: The new Manshaka update has "road = yes", but I need to add Drudach Street before it works.)
