Title

The Georgia State Routes WikiProject

Scope

This WikiProject aims primarily to encourage participation in creating or expanding articles about state highways in Georgia, also known as State Routes (note the capitals). This project also aims to establish standards relating to the display of information in these articles.

Routes Worthy of Articles

The following highways can have entire articles dedicated to them:

• Routes that are constructed, traversable, state-maintained, and signed with their own route numbers.
• Routes that are partly constructed or partly signed.
• Deleted routes with significant information worthy of an article.
• Interstates that run entirely in Georgia (mostly spur and loop routes). Ideally, these should also be part of this WikiProject.
• Georgia specific Interstate articles. For example: Interstate 75 in Georgia

This sucks. Structure Articles should best start with a short description of the state route. This description should say where the route begins and ends, as well as any discontinuities. Unique details about this road may be added, but use sparingly. Article Naming Convention Articles are located at Georgia State Route XXX; if not, they need to be moved there. Note: In all uses of the phrase "State Route", capitals are to be used. This includes stubs and categories and templates and lists. Road Description A physical description of the road should be given here. Cities and communities the road traverses should be mentioned here, as well as segments of freeway. History The history of this route number should be discussed here. External Links This is where all external links should be placed. For those relating to the route, please include the following websites. Government or official links should go first. Road enthusiasts links should follow. External links to points of interest should also go here. Category Structure All articles are placed into a category: either Category:State highways in Georgia (U.S. state), Category:U.S. Highways in Georgia, or Category:Interstate Highways in Georgia. The sort key is a three digit number representing the route number followed by banner designation if applicable. Examples: [[Category:State highways in Georgia (U.S. state)|009]] [[Category:State highways in Georgia (U.S. state)|092]] [[Category:State highways in Georgia (U.S. state)|120 Loop]] [[Category:State highways in Georgia (U.S. state)|515]] Hierarchy definition No classification of this project has been defined.
