Driving through North Manchester today and there is junction BUS IN 13 sign at IN 13 and Wayne St. Turned onto Wayne Street and there are three BUS 13 signs along Wayne Street between IN 13 and IN 114. BUS IN 13 is not in the TM database.

Cool. You wouldn't happen to have any photos, would you?
Here's the only official looking sign I could find on GMSV: https://www.google.com/maps/@41.015378,-85.7640575,3a,75y,299.13h,92.2t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sDRKgN_T49VnVs2-vknKgLQ!2e0!7i3328!8i1664
There's another one here, but it looks kinda DIY: https://www.google.com/maps/@41.0133672,-85.7644597,3a,68.7y,209.88h,97.8t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sgdPSrqXHJJy7o-humk6G4A!2e0!7i3328!8i1664 . I didn't notice any more along Wayne St, but the imagery is low-quality and 8 years old, so that doesn't mean much.
I don't see anything that shows the south end. It doesn't appear to meet up with IN 13 again. Any ideas?

Yes, there was an official sign at IN 13 and Wayne. There were at least 3 unofficial/homemade signs southbound on Wayne St. When I reached IN 114 there were no signs indicating whether BUS IN 13 ended or followed IN 114 back to IN 13 (which is what you would expect a Business Route to do).

Do any other collaborators have an opinion regarding non-standard signs for business routes?

Me, not so much -- I would just look at non-standard signage in the context of the bigger picture -- other signage, route logs, etc., stuff we normally look at to see if a route should be included.

I guess I should ask if there is some official database of Indiana state highways that is being used to determine whether or not changes should be made. Then when I notice things that I think are omitted or incorrect I can check it out myself before wasting anybody else's time.
