[edit] Different Stages of the Project and Projected Completion Dates

OVERALL COMPLETION DATE(EXCLUDE PHRASE SEVEN) WOULD BE JANUARY 2009.

CURRENTLY ON→Phrase One: Construction of this page is ongoing. Our goal is to move all current pages regarding roads in Golden Horseshoe which has a Regional Road identity to new categories (For Example, York Regional Roads; Simcoe County Roads). Also, place all regional roads into a list (should finish by February 2007)

CURRENTLY ON→Phrase Two: Write articles about all Regional Roads. (We need a large workforce to do that. (Should finish by January 2008-- It depends on the size of the workforce we have.)

STARTING ON →Phrase Three: Separate roads into municipal categories, such as "Roads in Markham", or "Roads in Vaughan", etc. (should finish by April 2008)

Phrase Four:Further separate roads in municipal categories into "aterial roads", "collector roads", and "local roads". (should finish by June 2008)

Phrase Five: "Roads in xxx Region" (For Example, Roads in Simcoe County) would grow and be the head of all subcategories. The position of this category amongst others would be more symbolic. This category would only hold only local and collector roads within a Regional Municpality/County without a Regional Road identity. (should finish by November 2008)

Phrase Six: Fix all the stubs in the categories, to make these articles to be more fuller. (should be finished by January 2009)

Phrase Seven: Patrol. (Infinite)

[edit] TO-DO LIST

To-do list for Wikipedia:WikiProject Golden Horseshoe Roads: edit · history · watch · refresh
This page attempts to organize and keep track of the articles on Golden Horseshoe road-related subjects on Wikipedia. Each article is assigned a level of completeness according to the following scale:
Image:25PL.png - stub, a paragraph or two, completely inadequate.
Image:50PL.png - maybe a few paragraphs, but coverage is inadequate, still missing some basic information.
Image:75PL.png - Many paragraphs, covers all, or almost all, basic information, provides a bit of depth.
Image:100PL.png - Featured article status, or has gone as far as it can go, as in the case of a simple list.
When rating articles keep in mind the subject at hand. A very broad topic could be considered inadequate even if it is much longer than another article on a very narrow topic. Please update the page as you see fit.
