While what we have going here so far is good, I think there is definitely some room for improvement. I’m very interested in starting a conversation regarding my proposals. </p><p>I realize that some of you may feel that “this is a bad time to be working on highway projects,” in light of recent events and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:State_route_naming_conventions_poll" title="Wikipedia:State route naming conventions poll">activities</a> going on in the community. I, however, think this is the <i>perfect</i> time to work on this project. Changes based on the outcome of some of the afore-mentioned events may bring massive changes (or not) to this project; regardless, this would be a good time to make some changes here and incorporate them in the grand scheme. </p><p>What I am suggesting overall is a better organization of the project itself. The actual project outline could use more specifics, in my opinion. In comparison to the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NYSR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NYSR">WP:NYSR</a>, I think we are pretty vague on our project page. Here are some of my detailed suggestions: </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Infobox" data-mw-thread-id="h-Infobox-Project_improvements-2006-08-12T17:23:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Infobox-Project_improvements-2006-08-12T17:23:00.000Z"></span>Infobox<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Infobox-Project_improvements-2006-08-12T17:23:00.000Z"></span></h3></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Seicer-2006-08-12T17:23:00.000Z-Infobox"></span>My overall suggestion is that we use the Infobox Road template, which is more widely used and consistent with other states' pages. <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:PASH" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:PASH">Pennsylvania</a>’s is a good example. Some of the features we lack that this one has are: </p> <ul><li>Year formed</li> <li>Counties listing</li></ul> <p>Thie would remove the Cities listing from the infobox. For routes that are long, and/or pass through suburban areas, the cities listing can get rather long, thus taking up a lot of space. We already have the cities in a list in the body of the article, so we are just duplicating that. </p><p>As for the browsing line at the bottom of the infobox, I will say that I’m <i>not</i> a fan of US routes being linked-up if they fall in sequence with the state routes – reason being, the reader gets pulled out of the state’s route listings altogether, a problem I find annoying when I’m browsing. However, it seems to be the norm on other projects, and there is the possibility of having each state’s previous and next routes listed on the US route’s page in a browsing format.

That was in ref to Infobox Road (all-encompassing template) displays "SR" when Ohio is the type entered in the variables. My only issue w/ SR in the infobox is when the route terminates at the state line, it's a little ambiguous. One only has the shield to differentiate -- and the article's link, of course. Otherwise, SR in the infobox is fine. So I guess we need to agree on whether we will use Infobox Road (which shows "SR") or create our own homegrown infobox with "OH" as the coding. I do like Infobox Road for its other features, and wouldn't want to lose that capability.<br><br>On the topic of cities and junctions in the infobox, I agree that shorter is better. I don't mind a handful of junctions. I would like to propose that the only junctions that land in the infobox would be with Interstates or other limited-access highways only (<a href="/wiki/Ohio_State_Highway_11" class="mw-redirect" title="Ohio State Highway 11">Ohio 11</a> for example). I think cities in the infobox is redundant, but would much prefer seeing counties (like Infobox Road has). Not in list-form, but separated by a comma, as is used on other states' articles.

Major junctions could be listed in the infobox if its not excessive, but we need to come up with a set standard on what should go in there and what should not. Your example is fine with me, as Ohio defines limited-access as a highway that has controlled access points, such as expressways and freeways that do not need to have interchanges. Limited-access is on, for instance, US 52 between New Boston and Chesapeake although it has intersections and interchanges - and signs on the ROW fencing indicates this. <a href="/wiki/User:Seicer" title="User:Seicer"> <b><span style="color: #B33C1A; font: Trebuchet MS; font-size: 10px;">Seicer</span></b></a> <small>(<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Seicer" title="User talk:Seicer">talk</a>) (<a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Seicer" title="Special:Contributions/Seicer">contribs</a>)</small> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Roads/Ohio/Archive_1#c-Seicer-2006-08-17T23:39:00.000Z-Homefryes-2006-08-17T20:52:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:39, 17 August 2006 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Seicer-2006-08-17T23:39:00.000Z-Homefryes-2006-08-17T20:52:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Seicer-2006-08-17T23:39:00.000Z-Homefryes-2006-08-17T20:52:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Homefryes-2006-08-20T14:11:00.000Z-Seicer-2006-08-17T23:39:00.000Z"></span>I agree with counties in, cities out. <strike>As for junctions, I wouldn't quibble if someone included US 52 if the junction is part of the limited-access portion. <a href="/wiki/Ohio_State_Highway_82" class="mw-redirect" title="Ohio State Highway 82">Route 82</a> is limited-access around <a href="/wiki/Warren,_Ohio" title="Warren, Ohio">Warren</a>, but east of that it has interchanges at 3 state highways and a grade-level intersection at <a href="/wiki/Ohio_State_Highway_7" class="mw-redirect" title="Ohio State Highway 7">Route 7</a>; and it has grade-level intersections with all county and township roads east of Warren as well, with one exception.

I hope to show a photograph to show my findings here – am waiting for permission from the photographer, but the email link seems to be outdated.</li> <li>There are Ohio shields on Wikipedia as well as on the Commons under slightly different names. This should be cleaned up (having on the Commons only would be sufficient), <i>and</i> I would recommend that the name be shortened to something a little more concise and editor-friendly, as other states’ projects have. <b>OH-###</b> would be my first choice, and <b>Ohio-###</b> my second.</li></ul> <p>I am more than willing to take on the daunting task of creating these shields to specs – using various photographs as a basis for what is standard and what is not, and then getting all the links changed over to the new schematic.

I've been using it as described on the wikiproject page, and it seems to fit well. Although, it doesn't say whether mileage in this table should be county-based or state-based. The SLDs only give county-based mileage, though calculating state-based mileage is usually straightforward. On the other hand, things get tricky when routes have discontiguous sections within the same county, especially given the way the SLDs "ignore" the out-of-county mileage. In this case, county-based mileage is far from intuitive and IMO should not be used in the junction table; instead, state-based mileage should be used, and can be calculated with a little bit of diligence. (<a href="/wiki/Ohio_State_Route_161" title="Ohio State Route 161">SR 161</a> is probably among the trickiest. I did the junction table this morning, and the county-based mileages just looked weird between Plain City and Dublin. So I put forth the extra effort and converted it all to state-based mileage.) For routes that don't enter any county more than once, however, should county-based mileage be acceptable, or do we want to use state-based mileage for all routes? <a href="/wiki/User:VidTheKid" title="User:VidTheKid">Vid the Kid - Does this font make me look fat?</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Roads/Ohio/Archive_1#c-VidTheKid-2006-11-11T22:42:00.000Z-Major_intersections_table" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:42, 11 November 2006 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-VidTheKid-2006-11-11T22:42:00.000Z-Major_intersections_table"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-VidTheKid-2006-11-11T22:42:00.000Z-Major_intersections_table"></span> </p> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(4)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="Naming_Convention" data-mw-thread-id="h-Naming_Convention-2006-08-24T19:53:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Naming_Convention-2006-08-24T19:53:00.000Z"></span>Naming Convention<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Naming_Convention-2006-08-24T19:53:00.000Z"></span></h2><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-timestampLabel'>Latest comment: <a href="#c-Homefryes-2006-08-24T21:22:00.000Z-Atanamir-2006-08-24T20:15:00.000Z">18 years ago</a></span><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-commentCountLabel'>4 comments</span><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-authorCountLabel'>2 people in discussion</span></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"></div></div></div><section class="mf-section-4 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-4"> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Atanamir-2006-08-24T19:53:00.000Z-Naming_Convention"></span>Regardless of the poll's outcome, here are some official OH DOT docuemtns with the official correct name "State Route X".

The <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:COUNCIL" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:COUNCIL">WikiProject Council</a> has recently updated the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Directory" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory">Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory</a>. This new directory includes a variety of categories and subcategories which will, with luck, potentially draw new members to the projects who are interested in those specific subjects. Please review the directory and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at <a href="/w/index.php?title=User:B2T2/Portal&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:B2T2/Portal (page does not exist)">User:B2T2/Portal</a>, listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory. The three columns regarding <a href="/wiki/Category:WikiProject_assessments" title="Category:WikiProject assessments">assessment</a>, <a href="/wiki/Category:WikiProject_peer_reviews" title="Category:WikiProject peer reviews">peer review</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Category:Wikipedia_collaborations" title="Category:Wikipedia collaborations">collaboration</a> are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. It is my hope that all the changes to the directory can be finished by the first of next month. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me.

While SR 2C does exist on <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.dot.state.oh.us/techservsite/availpro/Road_%20Infor/SLD/default.htm">ODOT's Straight Line Diagrams</a> as a route, there are many connector routes listed here all over the state, many of which are one way directional alternates and such, but others are connecting routes, such as SR 2C. I do not feel that these routes are deserving on their own articles, and in many cases, I don't believe they are even worth a mention.

I've tried to draw the conclusion at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:KYSH" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:KYSH">WP:KYSH</a> since someone added connector routes that were .01 mile long or something to that effect.

A subsection in the article on the "parent" route should be sufficient. A redirect should be created (i.e. <a href="/wiki/Ohio_State_Route_2C" class="mw-redirect" title="Ohio State Route 2C">Ohio State Route 2C</a> → <a href="/wiki/Ohio_State_Route_2" title="Ohio State Route 2">Ohio State Route 2</a>) but only if the connector has a subsection on the parent article. And only one redirect should be necessary, corresponding to the agreed-upon naming convention. (Note that <a href="/wiki/List_of_State_Routes_in_Ohio" class="mw-redirect" title="List of State Routes in Ohio">List of State Routes in Ohio</a> links to connector routes.) <a href="/wiki/User:VidTheKid" title="User:VidTheKid">Vid the Kid - Does this font make me look fat?</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Roads/Ohio/Archive_1#c-VidTheKid-2006-11-15T10:57:00.000Z-Seicer-2006-11-14T14:33:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:57, 15 November 2006 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-VidTheKid-2006-11-15T10:57:00.000Z-Seicer-2006-11-14T14:33:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-VidTheKid-2006-11-15T10:57:00.000Z-Seicer-2006-11-14T14:33:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Homefryes-2007-01-12T13:21:00.000Z-VidTheKid-2006-11-15T10:57:00.000Z"></span>The question of what to do with these auxiliary routes and making shields for them came up on my talk page, and I feel it's best to post my answer here for open debate. These routes as defined by ODOT and shown in the Straight Line Diagrams are connectors, directional alternates, etc., designated by C, D, J, and other letters. You would never see these signed with these letters in your travels around the state. They should be noted in the main route's article in the Junction table, in such cases as where there are 2 separate one-way <u>d</u>irectional roads for the same state route, or a <u>c</u>onnector road that joins two state routes; but it's superfluous for these to have their own separate articles. For example, as one is traveling on <a href="/wiki/State_Route_2_(Ohio)" class="mw-redirect" title="State Route 2 (Ohio)">State Route 2</a>, he would not see a shield for State Route 2C which is a connector route between SR 2 and <a href="/wiki/State_Route_163_(Ohio)" class="mw-redirect" title="State Route 163 (Ohio)">SR 163</a>. Therefore, it is my considered opinion that while ODOT recognizes (for maintenance and inventory purposes) SR 2C as a route, the public is probably not even going to know it exists as such, so why would we need an article for that connector route? Even <u>a</u>lternates and <u>b</u>ypasses should have a sub-heading under the main route's article. Alternate and Bypass shields exist for use in junction tables, and are used in conjunction with the route's shield for designation, with redirect pages to that subheading (see <a href="/wiki/Ohio_State_Route_4B" class="mw-redirect" title="Ohio State Route 4B">Ohio State Route 4B</a> for an example of redirecting, and the table on the main route's page for an example of the usage for the Bypass shield). — <a href="/wiki/User:Homefryes" title="User:Homefryes"><span style="padding : 1px 3px 1px 3px; border : 2px solid #BFDF9F;background: #660066 ; color: #BFDF9F"><i><b>Homefryes</b></i></span></a> <sup><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Homefryes" title="User talk:Homefryes">Say</a></sup>•<sub><a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Homefryes" title="Special:Contributions/Homefryes">Do</a></sub> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Roads/Ohio/Archive_1#c-Homefryes-2007-01-12T13:21:00.000Z-VidTheKid-2006-11-15T10:57:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">13:21, 12 January 2007 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Homefryes-2007-01-12T13:21:00.000Z-VidTheKid-2006-11-15T10:57:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Homefryes-2007-01-12T13:21:00.000Z-VidTheKid-2006-11-15T10:57:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Milktaco-2007-01-13T05:43:00.000Z-Homefryes-2007-01-12T13:21:00.000Z"></span>Agreed - the special routes do not need their own pages, but their information should be added to the parent page. <a href="/wiki/User:Milktaco" title="User:Milktaco">Milktaco</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Roads/Ohio/Archive_1#c-Milktaco-2007-01-13T05:43:00.000Z-Homefryes-2007-01-12T13:21:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">05:43, 13 January 2007 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Milktaco-2007-01-13T05:43:00.000Z-Homefryes-2007-01-12T13:21:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Milktaco-2007-01-13T05:43:00.000Z-Homefryes-2007-01-12T13:21:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Einstine85-2007-02-21T16:36:00.000Z-Milktaco-2007-01-13T05:43:00.000Z"></span>further agreed, by the person whom created the 2C page <a href="/wiki/User:Einstine85" title="User:Einstine85">Einstine85</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Roads/Ohio/Archive_1#c-Einstine85-2007-02-21T16:36:00.000Z-Milktaco-2007-01-13T05:43:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:36, 21 February 2007 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Einstine85-2007-02-21T16:36:00.000Z-Milktaco-2007-01-13T05:43:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Einstine85-2007-02-21T16:36:00.000Z-Milktaco-2007-01-13T05:43:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(13)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="Wikipedia_Day_Awards" data-mw-thread-id="h-Wikipedia_Day_Awards-2006-12-30T16:06:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Wikipedia_Day_Awards-2006-12-30T16:06:00.000Z"></span>Wikipedia Day Awards<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Wikipedia_Day_Awards-2006-12-30T16:06:00.000Z"></span></h2><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-timestampLabel'>Latest comment: <a href="#c-Badbilltucker-2006-12-30T16:06:00.000Z-Wikipedia_Day_Awards">17 years ago</a></span><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-commentCountLabel'>1 comment</span><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-authorCountLabel'>1 person in discussion</span></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"></div></div></div><section class="mf-section-13 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-13"> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Badbilltucker-2006-12-30T16:06:00.000Z-Wikipedia_Day_Awards"></span>Hello, all. It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Esperanza" title="Wikipedia:Esperanza">Esperanza's</a> proposal for an appreciation week to end on Wikipedia Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation_Week" title="User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week">User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week</a> where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors.

I know this article still needs some work to be FA quality, but I would love some feedback on what is still lacking. This is the first state DOT article to get anywhere near GA quality, so Ohioans should be proud. I know ODOT is not exactly the most interesting topic for most, but for the people editing the road articles, this may be of some value.

Technically this is incorrect. While it's easy to be persuaded by <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://pages.prodigy.net/john.simpson/highways/ohhwys.html">John Simpson's pages</a> to assume that that's the case, since he calls everything "Route xx" (even I was persuaded, and stated so in May, 1999 - <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://groups.google.com/group/misc.transport.road/browse_frm/thread/d6cb7a1cc9c7277a">Messages 19, 21, and 24</a>), ODOT is consistent in its designation labels, clearly identifying the three types of sub-systems. In other words, Ohio Route 70 is not the "hidden" designation for I-70, but instead the Ohio Route 70 designation was retired to accomodate the I-70 designation. </p><p>Therefore, I propose that any such Ohio State Route xx article be made into a disambiguation page, such as </p> <pre><b>Ohio State Route 6</b> is a former designation retired to accomodate <a href="/wiki/U.S._Route_6" title="U.S. Route 6">U.S. 6</a>.

Of course, Ohio currently has 371 of the 4917 stubs tagged under WP:USRD, for a total of 7.5%. Maybe you can identify a few articles that can be expanded to Start- or C-Class to help reduce the count?

If the website's information is coming from reliable sources, why does it state "The information contained at this site comes from the many state maps and road atlases I have collected as well as from information I have collected through misc.transport.road and other Internet sources." MTR is not a reliable source. John Simpson doesn't qualify as an "expert" on Ohio Highways, unless his site has been quoted in newspapers, or ODOT starts referring queries to the page. The biggest reason I'm skeptical is that the last update was almost nine years ago. Like I said above, it's not like things change every day, but surely ODOT has made some changes since then that call for updates to the site? <span style="background:#006B54; padding:2px;"><b><a href="/wiki/User:Imzadi1979" title="User:Imzadi1979"><span style="color:white;">Imzadi</span></a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Imzadi1979" title="User talk:Imzadi1979"><span style="color:white;">1979</span></a> <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Imzadi1979" title="Special:Contributions/Imzadi1979"><span style="color:white;"><big>→</big></span></a></b></span> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Roads/Ohio/Archive_1#c-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T03:48:00.000Z-JonRidinger-2010-09-19T05:18:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:48, 21 September 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T03:48:00.000Z-JonRidinger-2010-09-19T05:18:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T03:48:00.000Z-JonRidinger-2010-09-19T05:18:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-JonRidinger-2010-09-21T04:13:00.000Z-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T03:48:00.000Z"></span>That makes sense. I've gone through quite a bit of his stuff and most highway pages are simply putting into words what he finds on the old state maps, which are now available on the ODOT website to verify, particularly the earlier alignments of each road. I know for me, it made it easier to write some of the route histories with that as a guide to look at the maps. It's the more recent history that it obviously falls short on, though in at least this part of Ohio, there aren't many (if any) state routes that have had major route changes in the past 10 years or more. I don't have a problem removing it as an EL, though I don't particularly have a problem with it staying either since there is a lot of valid information.

On a sidenote, most of the state ends pictures <i>can</i> be duplicated in the same manner that any public domain images are added to Wikipedia: someone near them goes and takes a picture of the signs (since that's pretty much all the photos on there that I've seen) and uploads it as a PD or CC file. --<a href="/wiki/User:JonRidinger" title="User:JonRidinger">JonRidinger</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:JonRidinger" title="User talk:JonRidinger">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Roads/Ohio/Archive_1#c-JonRidinger-2010-09-21T06:17:00.000Z-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T05:43:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">06:17, 21 September 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-JonRidinger-2010-09-21T06:17:00.000Z-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T05:43:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-JonRidinger-2010-09-21T06:17:00.000Z-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T05:43:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T06:34:00.000Z-JonRidinger-2010-09-21T06:17:00.000Z"></span>Remember though that our audiences isn't really the roadgeek community, although it is important to do things right by them, it is the general public. My rule of thumb has been to do a Google search for the article subject and append "-wikipedia -wikimedia" to drop out the Wikipedia articles and images from the results. Whatever shows up on the first page that isn't related to the subject highway purely by address reliably makes for good EL candidates. Then I evaluate the candidates for suitability. Yes, we could duplicate the photos from the Ends site, but unless you're volunteering to duplicate the completed efforts of the website, a link is fine. Of course the website is more than just photos, and even if the photos were duplicated and uploaded to Wikipedia/Commons, many articles wouldn't be long enough to include them. They'd get shuffled off to a Commons category/gallery anyway. (In-article image galleries are falling out of favor.)

If an EL fits the criteria at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:EL" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:EL">WP:EL</a>, even in the slightest, I'm all for it, especially in cases like this where very little info is available on a particular subject and there likely aren't going to be many ELs to begin with. If it fills the role of relevant info, non-opinion, and is non-commercial, then I don't see any reason not to include it. But if the main argument is basically that the Simpson site is a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:FANSITE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:FANSITE">WP:FANSITE</a> because he's not an "authority" then state-ends would fall into that as well since it is also largely a fansite and the contributors are not recognized authorities that I am aware of. Even in terms of being up to date, many of the Ohio pages are upwards of 8 years old themselves (most recent updates in 2008). And as far as pictures go, I've actually done <a href="/wiki/User:JonRidinger/Images" title="User:JonRidinger/Images">a bit of photography</a> <i>specifically</i> for Wikipedia articles (NRHP sites for one) and have no problem adding photos to appropriate Commons galleries and putting the links in the associated articles. I'm someone who takes their camera a lot of places I guess. No point in going to the trouble to ask permission if someone can get a picture himself and I'm definitely someone who thinks there are very few articles that shouldn't have any pictures. Really, the vast majority of state highway articles only need <i>maybe</i> an ends photo or two (if any) and one or more of the road itself in different locations (of course, showing the shield somewhere in the picture). Most would probably need just one photo. And yes, I'd much rather have at least one photo in each article than a link to a gallery (the link should be <i>in addition to</i> the pictures in the article). Makes for much easier viewing, especially in longer articles. --<a href="/wiki/User:JonRidinger" title="User:JonRidinger">JonRidinger</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:JonRidinger" title="User talk:JonRidinger">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Roads/Ohio/Archive_1#c-JonRidinger-2010-09-21T13:04:00.000Z-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T06:34:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">13:04, 21 September 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-JonRidinger-2010-09-21T13:04:00.000Z-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T06:34:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-JonRidinger-2010-09-21T13:04:00.000Z-Imzadi1979-2010-09-21T06:34:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(32)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="RFC_on_coordinates_in_highway_articles" data-mw-thread-id="h-RFC_on_coordinates_in_highway_articles-2011-12-26T01:59:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-RFC_on_coordinates_in_highway_articles-2011-12-26T01:59:00.000Z"></span>RFC on coordinates in highway articles<span data-mw-comment-end="h-RFC_on_coordinates_in_highway_articles-2011-12-26T01:59:00.000Z"></span></h2><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-timestampLabel'>Latest comment: <a href="#c-Rschen7754-2011-12-26T01:59:00.000Z-RFC_on_coordinates_in_highway_articles">12 years ago</a></span><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-commentCountLabel'>1 comment</span><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-authorCountLabel'>1 person in discussion</span></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"></div></div></div><section class="mf-section-32 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-32"> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Rschen7754-2011-12-26T01:59:00.000Z-RFC_on_coordinates_in_highway_articles"></span>There is currently a discussion taking place at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:HWY" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia talk:HWY">WT:HWY</a> regarding the potential use of coordinates in highway articles.
