* [[Template:Construction]]
 
== Guidelines ==
Most of the guidelines for the Wiki content follows the Wikipedia guidelines. If a specific policy or guideline is not presented in the Waze Wiki help system, the Wikipedia guideline will serve the purpose.
 
=== Page titles ===
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_titles Page titles]<br/>

=== Section headings ===
''For more information see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOS:HEADINGS#Section_headings Wikipedia Section headings] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Section Wikipedia Help on Sections].''
 
* Headings should not refer redundantly to the subject of the article, or to higher-level headings, unless doing so is shorter or clearer.
* Headings should not normally contain links, especially where only part of a heading is linked.
* Section and subsection headings should be unique within a page; otherwise section links may lead to the wrong place, and automatic edit summaries can be ambiguous.
* Citations should not be placed within or on the same line as section and subsection headings.
* Headings should not contain images, including flag icons.
* Headings should not contain questions.
* Avoid starting headings with numbers (other than years), because this can be confusing for readers with the "Auto-number headings" preference selected.
* Before changing a section heading, consider whether you might be breaking existing links to that section. If there are many links to the old section title, create an {{tl|anchor}} with that title to ensure that the links still work. Similarly, when linking to a section of an article, leave an invisible comment at that section, specifying the names of the linking articles so that if the title is altered, others can fix the links.
* Do not start headings with a single equal (=) because inside of the Wiki a single equal is used for the title. Always start with two equal signs (==).
* Place Anchors immediately below the section header or at the start of the header text inside the "=".
 
=== Creating pages ===
If you want to build a page without input from others, start by creating it within your user namespace as a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:User_namespace#Terminology_and_page_locations subpage of your own]. That way you can more directly control the content.
 
=== Renaming pages ===
When it becomes necessary to rename a page, the Move tab at the top of a Wiki page should be used for a few reasons. A redirect page is provided automatically from the old name. The edit history is transferred from the original page to the new one. This is important in understanding who introduced changes and when they were made to a page.
 
If the destination page of the rename already exists, it must be moved to another page without creating a redirect. Otherwise it will require an admin to delete the page.


=== Disambiguation pages ===
=== Speed Limits ===
We follow the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Disambiguation|Wikipedia guidelines for Disambiguation (DAB) pages]]. Primarily make each entry only a single line. Do not use ending punctuation. Only use enough words to differentiate the the linked terms. Only have a single hyperlink per line. Some examples can be seen under the [https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Category:Disambiguation Category:Disambiguation].


=== Punctuation spacing ===
According to Tennessee Code Annotated [http://law.justia.com/codes/tennessee/2010/title-55/chapter-8/55-8-152 55-8-152], the following '''maximum''' speed limits apply in Tennessee, with individual counties and municipalities setting lower speeds on individual roads as needed:
The Wiki was set up with single spacing after the punctuation. In order to keep consistency in the Wiki, do not use double spacing after the punctuation.


=== HTTPS ===
* Interstates and limited access freeways (urban and rural): 70 MPH
When adding an external link, do not include the "s" in '''https'''. Simply remove the "s" from the URL. This will prevent the display of the [https://www.google.com closed lock] image and instead show the [http://www.google.com external link indicator] or the [http://www.google.com/test.pdf document type (currently only pdf is mapped into the CSS)].
* Divided highways: 65 MPH
* Undivided and two-lane roads: 55 MPH
* Residential streets: 30 MPH


== Other questions ==
Before verifying a speed limit in the editor, it MUST be confirmed either with the street view reticle in WME, reports from "on the ground", or using data provided by individual municipalities if available.
Please come to the [http://www.waze.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=276 Wiki Editing forum] for any questions not covered above.

GIS Data for 81 of Tennessee's 95 counties can be found on the state property viewer website. In addition, the counties listed in the table below maintain their own GIS websites. Some of these counties are not available on the state website, while a few can be viewed on both the state site as well as on their own site.

Speed Limits

According to Tennessee Code Annotated 55-8-152, the following maximum speed limits apply in Tennessee, with individual counties and municipalities setting lower speeds on individual roads as needed:

  • Interstates and limited access freeways (urban and rural): 70 MPH
  • Divided highways: 65 MPH
  • Undivided and two-lane roads: 55 MPH
  • Residential streets: 30 MPH

Before verifying a speed limit in the editor, it MUST be confirmed either with the street view reticle in WME, reports from "on the ground", or using data provided by individual municipalities if available.

A list of speed limit data collected by editors can be found on this page.
