[edit] Parameters
- marker_image
- Image of the route marker, this parameter is only necessary when multiple shields are needed, such as the case with Airport Loop
- name_notes
- Notes to go under the route designation and name
- type
- The type of route (MD for state route US for U.S. highway, etc.) (default is MD)
- number
- Route number
- route
- Used for non-numbered routes, the name of the route
- name
- Name or names of the route if it's numbered (ex: "Governor Ritchie Highway, Solomon's Island Road" for MD 2 or "Paul T. Pitcher Memorial Highway" for MD 100). If a name only applies to a short section of the route or is more commonly associated with another route, that name should be left out of the list (Ex: Do not include "John Hanson Highway" for MD 2)
- map
- A map image of this route
- length_mi
- Length in miles
- length_round
- number of decimal places the length should be rounded to (default is 2)
- length_ref
- citation for the length (most are available via HLR, a link to there should suffice)
- length_notes
- notes on the length
- established
- when the route was established
- decommissioned
- when the route was decommissioned (N/A for existing routes) (default is N/A)
- from_direction
- the beginning direction of the route (such as West)
- to_direction
- the ending direction of the route (such as East)
- from
- City or town nearest to the terminus indicated by
from_direction - to
- City or town nearest to terminus indicated by
to_direction - beltway_city
- City or town the route encircles if it is a beltway
- routes_junctioned
- List of some numbered routes that junction this one (excluding termini), some things to note about this section:
- For longer routes, only list junctions with major routes, in general, try keep the list at 10 or less routes
- Routes should be listed North to South or West to East and should not be repeated.
- Routes should be listed in the format
[[Image:image|size]] [[route link]]. The image is the shield image, the size is 20px if the route uses a square shield (such as 1 and 2-digit routes), and 25px if the route uses a wide shield (such as 3-digit routes), and the route link is a link to the route, with the abbreviation of the route (MD 2, US 50, I-95) as the visible link text. - Basically, routes junctioned is just to give the user an idea of where the route is in relation to other routes, for a more exhaustive list of junctions, use the "Junction list" section as outlined in WP:MDRD/EG.
[edit] Deprecated parameters
The following parameters are deprecated and should no longer be used
- image
- Image of shield/sign for the route (Image:MD blank.svg for routes that don't have one) (DEPRECATED, remove once
numberandtypehave been added, or replace withmarker_imageas necessary) - length_km
- Length in kilometers (DEPRECATED, unnecessary (now handled by internal calculation), should be removed)
- direction
- either "North/South", "West/East", "Loop", or briefly describe the directions (such as "North/South north of MD 108, West/East east of MD 108") (DEPRECATED, replace with
from_directionandto_direction, loops should use thebeltway_cityparameter)

Copy the text below and insert the parameter values after each "=" except for list of routes junctioned which should be inserted in the space provided as a list.
