Welcome to the Florida State Roads WikiProject! Please feel free to contribute on how to improve articles in the talk page above.
The Florida State Roads WikiProject
This WikiProject aims primarily to encourage participation in creating or expanding articles about state highways in Florida, also known as State Roads (note the capitals). This project also aims to establish standards relating to the display of information in these articles.
[edit] Routes Worthy of Articles
The following highways can have entire articles dedicated to them:
- Roads that are constructed, traversable, state-maintained, and signed with their own route numbers.
- Roads that are partly constructed or partly signed.
- Deleted roads with significant information worthy of an article.
- Interstates that run entirely in Florida (mostly spur and loop routes). Ideally, these should also be part of this WikiProject.
- Florida specific Interstate articles. For example: Interstate 10 in Florida
For routes that have been entirely deleted and whose number has not been reused, these should be merged onto a following articles, Former State Roads in east central Florida, Former State Roads in southern Florida, ect...

- DanTD A die-hard roadgeek since early childhood and a Florida resident since 1999, thanks to the high cost of living on Long Island. I'm still dedicated to road improvements throughouth the country, and have been adding information on roads before I joined Wikipedia, especially for New York and Florida roads.

[edit] Structure
Articles should best start with a short description of the state road. This description should say where the road begins and ends, as well as any discontinuities, as defined by law. Unique details about this road may be added, but use sparingly.
[edit] Article Naming Convention
The contents of each article in this project should reside in Florida State Road XXX, with XXX being the road number; also, State Road XXX (Florida) should redirect to the article as well.
Note: In all uses of the phrase "State Road", capitals are to be used. This includes stubs and categories and templates and lists.
[edit] 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.
[edit] History
The history of this road number should be discussed here.
