Route 542: Just for you (June 24, 2004, The Bellingham Herald)

created Abby redirect[edit]

Because of the way the template operates, had to create Abbotsord B.C., Washington as a redirect LOL.....what happens on other WSRs, e.g. for Osoyoos, Grand Forks et al?Skookum1 (talk) 05:59, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't necessary. Replace "city" with "location" in {{jct}} and use wiki links inside there. The other articles haven't been updated yet. Sounder Bruce 06:14, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
