[edit] Sources for Illinois State Route 54

Hello, good work on Illinois State Route 54, and thanks for the contribution. However, you did not provide any references or sources in the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. From what websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to Illinois State Route 54? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? You can simply add links, or see WP:CITET if you wish to review some of the different citation methods. Thanks!  BRIAN0918  03:54, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

You should check out WP:CITE.—WAvegetarian•(talk) 23:16, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, this is a better thing to read. —WAvegetarian•(talk) 23:18, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
If you are looking for a specific template to use, I would suggest {{tl:cite news}}. You can leave every field you don't know the info for blank.—WAvegetarian•(talk) 23:24, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userboxes

RE: the photography userbox item. Have you noticed that your userpage has been edited with two userbox redirects to other users pages:- ie Roadfan and Single Male. If you wish you can bypass those by inserting the template code direct, copied from the template itself, in the same way I showed on the Photography talk page. See my userpage for how to put it in.

I did NOT catch that. I will check it out . Thanks. US 71 14:40, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Adding junctions to US Routes

Greetings, while you are editing the junction lists (in the infobox) for U.S. Routes (or any other road for that matter), please remember to include the shield graphic as well to maintain the existing format. For Interstate shields use [[Image:I-XX.svg|20px]] and for U.S. Route shields use [[Image:US_XX.svg|20px]] where XX is the route number. Cheers! -- Stratosphere (U T) 02:10, 10 September 2006 (UTC)


- Oh, right. I got in a hurry and forgot to do that. Thanks for reminding me. US 71 03:06, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
