Would it be possible to create a map for Buffalo's Roadway network like Erie, PA's?

=== Whatever you can make for [[List of State Routes in New York]] ===
List of Strate Routes in New York needs maps made for the decommissioned routes. If its possible to do them over time, it would be a big help. If you need the route's current designation of its routing, just tell me and I can explain. I'd do this myself, but I am currently experiencing computer problems. Just reply with maps or questions.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT><b>32</b><sup>([[User:Mitchazenia|UP]])</sup> 23:02, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

B-class articles and better requests

These are the top priority requests and they will be filled prior to lower quality articles requests.

List of Interstate and U.S. Highways in Washington

I would like an SVG version of Image:Washington Interstates and U.S. highways map with shields.png (located at Image:Washington Interstates and U.S. highways map with shields.svg) with the shields and U.S. routes in red and Interstates in blue. The new map will be used in List of Interstate and U.S. Highways in Washington, which is at FLC, so please hurry! ~~ ĈőмρǖтέŗĠύʎ890100 (tĔώ) 17:09, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Utah State Route 93

A C-class article (yes, C-class) that I would like to see up to B. The route is quite short, less than a half-mile long. I'm not too terribly picky about this but I'd like it without shields if possible, though it doesn't matter much - CL02:06, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and while I'm here, SR-71 is a full-fledged B-class article that could use an accompanying map, if that's no problem - CL02:11, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]


New York State Route 280

Route 280 is a B-class article I'm getting ready for GAN. I could use a map for the highway. Thanks.Mitch32(UP) 18:01, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Start and stub class requests

These requests will only be completed once the above requests have been completed or if an editor takes a special interest in your request. In order to expedite your request, improve the article to B-class assessement quality.

Florida State Road 116

I just started the page for Florida State Road 116, and I need a map for the page. Thank you for your help.

Florida State Road 113

I just started the page for Florida State Road 113, and I need a map for the page. Thank you for your help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Morriswa (talkcontribs) 10:03, April 7, 2008

Please note the top of the page, which asks that articles be improved to B-class before you bring them here to request a map. I don't foresee it being a problem since there's not a particularly large backlog, and the cartographers are likely to get around to it when they get a chance regardless. Generally though, this page isn't for articles that you've "just started". -- Kéiryn talk 14:18, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I echo Keiryn's thoughts as well. It isn't a big issue, but generally the article should be long and complete enough to support a map - which usually means that it should be B-Class. --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 18:49, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Replacements for maps of formerly proposed roads on Long Island

I've just had a collection of maps that were tagged for deletion, claiming they can be replaced, but I've had my doubts, which has lead to some edit wars I'd rather avoid. In case I'm wrong about this, I'd like to request some replacemnts for the following non-free maps:

These maps are useful for explaining how the selected roads were supposed to have been built. But as they stand now, they're not free. I'd like to see some that don't violate any copyright laws by April 27, 2008 if that's possible. If not, perahps somebody here can photocopy the images, or save them in some other way, and use them as references for replacements. --DanTD (talk) 22:20, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, just make sure you have copies of the files saved onto your hard drive. Then, if someone does respond (I lack the knowhow to make maps), you can e-mail them the file or somesuch so they can use it. -- Kéiryn talk 16:05, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Abilene, TX Area Maps

I need maps for several Abilene area highways. They are FM 3438, UR 3438, and FM 89. They are not high priority, but they would be nice. Thanks! Highwayboy (talk) 21:24, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Maps for Washington's old Primary State Highways

We need some maps for PSH 1, PSH 11, PSH 12, PSH 13, PSH 14, PSH 15, PSH 16, PSH 17, PSH 18, PSH 21, and PSH 22. These maps were made by PHenry, but I couldn't contact him. Please help. Image:Map-WA-PSH2.svg could be an example. ComputerGuy890100Talk to meWhat I've done to help Wikipedia 21:41, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

E-ZPass

How about a map which shows (in purple, of course) all turnpikes and turnpike systems that accept E-ZPass (or compatible)? —Scott5114 [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 10:30, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Montana Maps

I assume he means Interstate 15 Business (Great Falls, Montana), but see my comment on the request below. -- Kéiryn (talk) 03:17, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New York

There are 7,549 articles that need maps "per talkpage". This page isn't for listing every single one of those articles; that's what the tag and category are for. This is just for listing articles that are being actively worked on and improved, and need a map in order to be complete. -- Kéiryn (talk) 03:12, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
i don't know how to upload image. We can just do it one at a time. I know alot of then needs to.--Freewayguy Call? Fish 04:10, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This is why we do few at a time. We can't do all 8000 maps at once, this is why we distribute the task force.--Freewayguy Call? Fish 22:52, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Beartooth Highway

I think I found my next project... it's Start-class for now, but I'm hoping to have it at GA quite soon. A crop of Image:US 212 map.png would suffice, but the red color of the primary highway would need to be limited between Yellowstone and Red Lodge, MT. —Rob (talk) 16:20, 14 August 2008 (UTC) —Rob (talk) 16:20, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
