External links modified
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified one external link on
List of road routes in the Northern Territory. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit
this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than
regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors
have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the
RfC before doing mass systematic removals. This message is updated dynamically through the template {{

I suggest that you read
WP:OR, which is what you are doing. Find a written source from sites such as the NT Department of Infrastructure, Planning and Logistics. Also
assume good faith.

It does, we have
WP:NOR. If you think it can be used as a "source", you'll need to go to the
noticeboard for review.

@
Thent1234: actually
Bidgee is right. You were bold and made some edits which were reverted with edit summaries pointing out that your edits failed the
verifiability requirements for Wikipedia. The correct course of action then is to discuss the issue here on the talk page, not re-revert and then throw around
aspersions against other editors who question your edits and their lack of
RS. See
bold, revert, discuss cycle. -

Google Maps is a reliable source. Only the Google Maps people can edit it, take photos and publish it. It's not like Open Street Maps where anyone can edit it, myself included. Hope that Helps. If DIPL hasn't released a map of all the road routes, how are we supposed to edit it?
I guess that you're not all that smart or playing dumb. Google Maps is NOT a reliable source, just like Bing Maps and Apple Maps are not a reliable source. Google Maps can be edited (I have that function as part of my contributing with Google Maps and Street View) and I can add to Street View as well. There will be webpages or press releases on Government sites that talk about changes or new routes, use them or maybe find a book written by a reliable author.

Bidgee decided not to read my entire edit and cut it halfway, which changed some errors and more. (like I forgot to change B6 to A3 when I found out it was signed. I also did some other brush ups. So please don't be lazy and just read the entire edit.
Thent1234, if you really think Google Maps is a reliable source for your edit, take it to the
RSN|Reliable Sources Noticeboard and see how you go there. I'll abide by their decision, but will you? -
