Possibility of splitting article

In north Baltimore city, Maryland Route 2 is known as "St. Paul Street" in a Southbound direction, and "Calvert Street" northbound. Both of these are a one-way pair of major streets, both of major importance, with a large number of landmarks and a lot of history. to the south of Pratt Street, they become a large, two-way street called "Light Street" that although short, is well-known as forming the western boundary of the Inner Harbor tourist area. Would it make sense to form a new, separate article titled "St. Paul Street-Calvert Street" with a redirect from "Light Street?" Sebwite 20:02, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

:Do a separate article or articles, but don't take away from this article. All you have to do is link to Maryland Route 2 & vice versa. You don't need to disambiguate. Also Route 2 has many other names on its course, e.g., for most of its run through Calvert County, Maryland it is known as Solomon's Island Road. clariosophic 18:17, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned references in [[:Maryland Route 2]]

I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Maryland Route 2's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "1936 src report":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 03:34, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Southern Terminus Route 2

From Thomas Johnson Road coming eastward to Solomons Island Road, there is an MD shield indicating MD 2 south. This is south of Lore Road. This would seem to indicate that the southern terminus is further south than the current article indicates.

:The southern terminus is correct per the [https://www.roads.maryland.gov/OPPEN/2020%20Calvert.pdf Highway Location Reference for Calvert County], an official route log published by the Maryland State Highway Administration. The signage there may be incorrect. Dough4872 20:29, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
