Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada Roads/Saskatchewan/Contest Department
The contest department of the WP Sk Roads aims to motivate increased quality in Saskatchewan highway articles by offering a form of friendly competition for project members making improvements to them. The primary contest available is a simple rolling competition that awards points for improving articles, as originally developed by LGBT studies WikiProject and WP Military History; but more formal competitions are also being planned.

Hi-
I'm not sure if this is the sort of thing you were looking for, but I'm not very good at article writing, so I made a graphic. It's a map that shows all the villages along with Saskatchewan Highway 11:
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/04/Saskatchewan_Highway_11_map.svg/220px-Saskatchewan_Highway_11_map.svg.png)
It's in a vector format, so you can resize it as you see fit. I used the colors defined by the MOS for maps, but I can change them if you wish.
I spent about an hour and a half on it between tracing maps, finding the cities, etc etc. Let me know if this is acceptable to you--
