why isn't it signed any more? Has the route stopped to "exist" and they removed the signs on purpose (but just haven't finished yet hence the signs on the crossing roads)? I would tag "old_ref" for situations where the ref is no longer valid, but might still provide some useful information today. E.g. in Italy a lot of roads have passed from the national operator to the regions (admin entities), and changed their refs accordingly (e.g. SS 4 to SR 4), and they also put some new signs here and there, but they didn't remove a lot of the old signs, so that you can find a lot of old refs still signposted. In this context we have tagged also old_ref to these roads.

If on the other hand the refs are still valid, but simply aren't signposted on some stretches anymore, I would keep them in "ref".

What do you mean by valid?
