Someday I'd love to do that. But right now it's not possible due to the NC hysteria, the infobox backup, the browse mess, etc. Also we'd have to take it one state at a time. But at one point I'd like to do that. --'''] (] - ]) ''' 20:41, 29 August 2006 (UTC) |

I created KML data for this draft, ], in the References section, and converted it to GeoJSON, but upon loading, it just throws an error. How can I fix this? <span style="font-family:monospace; font-weight: bold"><span style="color:ForestGreen">]</span>: ] <span style="">$</span></span> 19:33, 1 June 2024 (UTC) |

Here is an example of a page tag being used widely: |

:Uploading GeoJSON to Misplaced Pages in raw form has been dying a slow death for years now- the preferred method these days is uploading to Commons under a Data:_____.map page and calling it using a ‘from’ parameter in the template <span style="background:#613314; padding:2px; font-family: 'Courier New'">''']]'''</span> 21:41, 1 June 2024 (UTC) |

::The upside to putting the map data on Commons is that it's reusable on other editions of Misplaced Pages, or even the AARoads Wiki. ] and use the same map file on Commons, for instance. <span style="background:#006B54; padding:2px;">'''] ]'''</span> 21:55, 1 June 2024 (UTC) |

It seems there are various methods of assessment being attached to these tags at the moment for some WikiProjects; from my limited amount of browsing, the most comprehensive of these is ], but they also reference ], so many more are possible. For examples, see ] and ]. |

There is an opportunity for bloat there, but the two uses that are a Very Good Idea and should be implemented are: |
|
|
* '''Assessment''' - determining the state of an article and its room for improvement |
|
|
* '''Map classification''' - using the template to identify which articles are in need for maps. |

Here's where it gets interesting; while WikiProject Trains has precisely one level of complexity, U.S. Roads has about three; U.S. Roads, Interstates and U.S. Highways, and 50+ state projects. Theoretically, then, there will be 54 different tags to edit, versus WikiProject Trains' 1. |

|
|
|
|
In other words, when these templates are edited, and the people that need to be notified are notified, we need to keep in mind that we don't want ]; we want ]. It's easy to fall into the trap of the former. Even ] should be avoided. |

Anyways, this is all sort of related to the maps task force, but if we're going to be modifying many templates, we'll want to keep this in mind. —] <span style="font-size:x-small">(</span>]<span style="font-size:x-small">)</span> 20:45, 29 August 2006 (UTC) |
