I didn't see it listed on the article page: INDOT has a Roadway Referencing System online, which gives mileage to the hundredths place (it's organized by district). Mapsax ( talk) 18:15, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
This is the first time I have seen discontinuous highways split into separate articles such as Indiana State Road 4. Is anyone opposed to merging these into one article? Also, if consensus is to keep them separate, I would suggest moving Indiana State Road 4 (middle) to Indiana State Road 4 (central), middle just doesn't sound right. -- Holderca1 talk 20:45, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
As you may have heard, we at the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team recently made some changes to the assessment scale, including the addition of a new level. The new description is available at WP:ASSESS.
Each WikiProject should already have a new C-Class category at Category:C-Class_articles. If your project elects not to use the new level, you can simply delete your WikiProject's C-Class category and clarify any amendments on your project's assessment/discussion pages. The bot is already finding and listing C-Class articles.
Please leave a message with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme. This scheme should allow the team to start producing offline selections for your project and the wider community within the next year. Thanks for using the Wikipedia 1.0 scheme!

Hi! I'd like to draw your attention to the new WikiProject coordinators' working group, an effort to bring both official and unofficial WikiProject coordinators together so that the projects can more easily develop consensus and collaborate. This group has been created after discussion regarding possible changes to the A-Class review system, and that may be one of the first things discussed by interested coordinators.
All designated project coordinators are invited to join this working group. If your project hasn't formally designated any editors as coordinators, but you are someone who regularly deals with coordination tasks in the project, please feel free to join as well. — Delievered by §hepBot ( Disable) on behalf of the WikiProject coordinators' working group at 05:41, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows ( full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to
report bugs and
request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a
"news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none
parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at
Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.
Message sent by User:Addbot to all active wiki projects per request, Comments on the message and bot are welcome here.
Thanks. — Headbomb { ταλκ κοντριβς – WP Physics} 09:16, 15 March, 2009 (UTC)
All links to illi-indi.com (lots) are dead and need to have the domain changed to highwayexplorer.com . Mapsax ( talk) 00:29, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
Progress update: virtually all of the articles for current Indiana state roads now use the jct template in both the infobox and the "major intersections" section. Omnedon ( talk) 18:04, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Per "Merging of Articles" above, the WikiProject page needs to be altered. There is no benefit to the reader to using multiple articles to describe a state road. True, some state highways were once contiguous and were then split into sections for one reason or another, while others consist of multiple segments that were created separately. However, to take State Road 4 as an example: the State of Indiana documents at [1] do not list the sections separately, and do not start each section at mile 0; and the Indiana Highway Ends site describes all three section on the same page. The article for Indiana State Road 43 describes multiple sections in the same article quite successfully, and there are many others. Only SR 4, 8 and 11 are treated separately, which (again) is not of any aid to the reader. Omnedon ( talk) 14:12, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the WP 1.0 assessment system. On Saturday, January 23, 2010, the WP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the WP 1.0 project homepage. — Carl ( CBM · talk) 03:27, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion taking place at WT:HWY regarding the potential use of coordinates in highway articles. Your input is welcomed. -- Rs chen 7754 01:54, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
