I think this article needs to be retitled- the manual calls it "Road" and not "Dirt Path".

See the below scan of the pertinent page (click on link):

Done. I never liked the name Dirt Path, and it only came from what someone decided to write on the Zelda II article. --Adam 16:31, 17 October 2007 (EDT)

Do I even need to say anything? An article for something as generic and commonplace as roads is completely unnecessary, and the only thing that actually links to this article is a redirect. Dannyboy601Talk 21:29, 30 December 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

As an article, yeah, it's not needed. But I am thinking that it could still work as a disambiguation page linking to more notable roads. - Midoro (T C) 22:11, 30 December 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Oh, that's a good idea, actually. I hadn't thought of that. There are certainly enough places with road in their name to warrant it. Dannyboy601Talk 22:35, 30 December 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Actually I think this page should instead be expanded to focus on the properties of some roads in the games, such as those in The Adventure of Link and Ocarina of Time where they notably affect enemy behavior when Link stands on them. - TonyT S C 01:41, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Isn't that literally the only effect that they have in those games, though? Preventing enemies from attacking Link? There's not really much else that can be said about roads other than what's already present in the article, and unless there's a major property or significance of roads in another game of which I'm not aware, I really don't see a point in keeping the article just for that.
