Unsourced. Tagged Unencylopedic for a six weeks with no changes to the article. Pure Trivia and worse a neologism. A google for "wrong-way concurrency" site:gov shows ZERO hits. [[User:KelleyCook|KelleyCook]] ([[User talk:KelleyCook|talk]]) 00:10, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
*'''Delete''' These things happen a ''lot'' in U.S. highways; I know of one less than an hour from me. There is very little chance that this could be expanded beyond a dicdef, as no ''reliable'' sources seem to use the term.

*Doesn't look like this'll ever make [[WP:N]], sadly. '''Transwiki''' to Wiktionary, maybe? Also suggest listing [[List of wrong-way concurrencies]] with this. --[[User:Lifebaka|<
:*I added the list per your suggestion. [[User:TenPoundHammer|<span style="color:green">Ten Pound Hammer</span>]] <small>and his otters</small> • <sup>([[Special:Contributions/TenPoundHammer|Broken clamshells]]•[[:User talk:TenPoundHammer|Otter chirps]])</sup> 00:23, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

::IMO the subject has info which goes beyond a dictionary def. --- [[User:Taroaldo|Taroaldo]] ([[User talk:Taroaldo|talk]]) 01:20, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
::'''EDIT''': There is also a dictionary definition at Wiktionary. Also, the article does have more than a dictionary definition and has the potential for more. I change my vote to '''Weak Keep'''. --<span style="border: 1px solid #00a5ff; ">[[User:Shruti14|Shruti14]]</span> <sup><i>[[User talk:Shruti14|t]] [[Special:Contributions/Shruti14|c]] [[User:Shruti14/Signatures|s]]</i></sup> 01:23, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

*'''Neutral''' I can see both sides. There may be issues with some criteria, but somehow the topic seems worthy. Perhaps a merge with [[Concurrency (road)]]. --- [[User:Taroaldo|Taroaldo]] ([[User talk:Taroaldo|talk]]) 01:15, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
*'''Delete/merge''' into [[Concurrency (road)]] - insufficiently notable term for an article in its own right. [[User:Terraxos|Terraxos]] ([[User talk:Terraxos|talk]]) 02:23, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
*'''Merge''' into [[Concurrency (road)]]. <small>[[User:Esradekan|<span style="border:1px solid blue;padding:1px;"><
*'''Smerge''' a small discussion into [[concurrency (road)]], '''delete''' the list. This is one of those things that roadgeeks (I'm cured, honest) find endlessly fascinating, everybody else, not so much. See also [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ghost ramp (second nomination)]]. I would suggest a transwiki if there were a Wikia for roads & highways (there is one for UK roads only). --[[User:Dhartung|Dhartung]] | [[User talk:Dhartung|Talk]] 07:26, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
*'''Delete''': It's trivia for highway spotters. The explanation is obvious, the incidence is not remarkable nor significant in its own right, and it does not lead to a phenomenon that is meaningful in other contexts. It's trivia. "List of roads with bumpy and then smooth and then bumpy surfaces" would be about as significant. [[User:Utgard Loki|Utgard Loki]] ([[User talk:Utgard Loki|talk]]) 12:15, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

*'''Delete''' the list; redirect the term. It's an interesting bit of trivia but can be covered in [[concurrency (road)|concurrency]]. --[[User talk:NE2|NE2]] 23:00, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
*'''Redirect[[Concurrency]] or delete:''' If we forward this to [[concurrency]] then the article does not hoave to be delete. This may sound un-encyclopedia or [[WP:CRUFT]]--[[User:Freewayguy|<
*'''Merge to [[concurrency (road)]]'''. I'd be willing to host the list on my personal website (keeping the list page under the GFDL), which has some other roadcruft it'd fit in with. —[[User:Scott5114|Scott5114]][[User_talk:Scott5114|↗]] <span style="font-size:75%">[[Special:Contributions/Scott5114|[EXACT CHANGE ONLY]]]</span> 01:16, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
*'''Merge''' per Hobit. Keep the list, merge the info to a new section on [[Concurrency (road)]]. '''--[[User:MPD01605|<
*'''Merge''' to a new section in the [[Concurrency (road)]] article as this subject appears notable enough for coverage but not enough for its own article. - [[User:Dravecky|Dravecky]] ([[User talk:Dravecky|talk]]) 06:18, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
*'''Merge to [[concurrency (road)]] and keep the list''', basically what MPD01605 said --[[User:Lukobe|Lukobe]] ([[User talk:Lukobe|talk]]) 04:57, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
*'''Merge''' wrong-way concurrency with [[concurrency (road)|concurrency]] but '''delete''' the list. IMO, it's far too common an occurrence to have a list of all of them. --[[User:TwinsMetsFan|'''<
*'''Merge''' wrong-way concurrency with [[concurrency (road)|concurrency]] and '''delete''' the list. My views echo the ones stating that there are so many - if this is seen, expansion can get out of control. — [[User:Master_son|'''<span style="font-variant: small-caps; color:#006600;">
