Spread the word! {{Project U.S. Roads East}} edit |
Welcome to the Georgia State Routes WikiProject! Please feel free to contribute on how to improve articles in the talk page above.
The Georgia State Routes WikiProject
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.
[edit] 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

- Rschen7754 Never been but happy to help.
- NE2 I've been doing some work here.
- HowardSFI too, have been adding some stuff here and on other Georgia related pages.

[edit] 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.
[edit] 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.
[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 route number should be discussed here.
