Revision as of 22:31, 23 June 2014
 |
This new page is currently undergoing modifications. The information presented should be considered a draft, not yet ready for use. Content is being prepared by one or more users. Do not make any changes before you post a message in this forum. |
This page is being developed as a template for all USA state pages. Current pages being considered as a guideline for some or all of their content include:
Cities and towns
 |
What is the primary goal of this section? Are there states with cities that are unnamed? Or is this more about when and how to name CDPs? Either way we should explain why this section is here since we are not just listing city names for the sake of listing them. One example is Connecticut/Cities and towns. |
There are 169 cities and towns in the state. See STATENAME/Cities and towns for proper naming information.
Major roads
|
The state specific page for Roads by type (third link below) does not appear to be active for most states and would be removed for states that don't have it. One example is Connecticut/Roads by type |
STATENAME follows the general road naming and type guidelines of the USA. See Road names/USA, Road types/USA and STATENAME/Roads by type.
Places
|
If a state has specific guidelines different from the rest of the country, it would be noted here. |
<!--Modify details as applicable for STATENAME.-->
STATENAME follows the USA standard for Places.
Major construction projects
|
Some states have a full subpage on tracking construction projects and others just link to the state's DOT.gov page. |
<!--Replace content with applicable material for state.-->
The major construction projects for STATENAME can be found on this DOT web page.
Special roads

Cameras
|
Because many states are different from each other, this section is very important to be covered uniquely for each state. |
Not every camera-looking device at an intersection is a speed or red light camera. Be sure to know your cameras before accepting new camera reports. Currently only the Waze client app can add cameras to the map. When adding a camera from the app, be sure to review the camera placement recommendations.
Speed cameras
Speed cameras are (legal/illegal) in STATENAME. These cameras take a photograph of a vehicle when it passes by at too high a speed. Refer to the Cameras page for specific information.
Red light cameras
Red light cameras are (legal/illegal) in STATENAME. These cameras take a photograph of a vehicle that enters an intersection after the light is red. Refer to the Cameras page for specific information.
<!--Some states have additional regulations or specific localities that relate to speed and red light cameras. That information should be added here.-->
To do list
|
Some states have it and others don't. I recommend we always make it an entire subpage. |
If you are an active editor in this state, consider reviewing the "to do" list for the state at STATENAME/To do list.
Mapping resources
|
Virtually every state has links to other resources |
The following links can be helpful when editing STATENAME.
<!--Add links to resources applicable for STATENAME.-->
Forum
|
Most states have this already, so it should be easy to match for all states. |
The Waze forum is a great place to find answers to previously asked questions and also a place to ask new ones. Below is a link to the forum specific to STATENAME as well as the main USA forum page.
Area Managers
|
Most states already use this same basic format, so we might as well all use it. This is from Connecticut. |
