Module talk:Road data

Module:Road data is permanently protected from editing because it is a heavily used or highly visible module. Substantial changes should first be proposed and discussed here on this page. If the proposal is uncontroversial or has been discussed and is supported by consensus, editors may use {{edit template-protected}} to notify an administrator or template editor to make the requested edit.

Wikidata

Wikidata now has a road number formatter (P8498) property that would make it possible to streamline some of these modules a little. Instead of needing to specify the abbreviation format of each route network, the module could simply supply the Wikidata QID of the route network and state. A template like {{jct}} could then automatically look up the correct format. For example:

Interstate highways (California): {{replace|{{if empty|{{wd|property|Q94247|P8498|P3005=Q99}}|{{wd|property|Q94247|P8498}}}}|$1|5}} → I-5
Interstate highways (Texas): {{replace|{{if empty|{{wd|property|Q94247|P8498|P3005=Q1439}}|{{wd|property|Q94247|P8498}}}}|$1|5}} → IH 5

I've also proposed a road name formatter property to further streamline these modules. It's still waiting for some feedback.

Edit request 11 June 2024

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Description of suggested change: I don't understand why the names in Module:Road data/strings/CAN/NT aren't causing the names of highways to appear in List of Northwest Territories highways. For example, Highway 1 should be called "Mackenzie Highway". I see in other jurisdictions the proper name replaces the highway number. Also, Is it possible to add new highway types for the collector class highways? Those new types would be Road, Access Road, Winter Road, and Ice Road.

This is not a specific, actionable, request for an edit to be made (please add this code there) and it seems nobody has taken up the invitation to code this in almost a month, so deactivating. Feel free to request (or implement yourself as you're an admin) specific code be deployed. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 02:04, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
