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 6 August 2023

It is requested that an edit be made to the template-protected module at Module:Road data.
(edit · history · last · links · sandbox · edit sandbox · sandbox history · sandbox last edit · sandbox diff · test cases · transclusion count · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, so that an editor unfamiliar with the subject matter could complete the requested edit immediately.

Edit requests to template-protected pages should only be used for edits that are either uncontroversial or supported by consensus. If the proposed edit might be controversial, discuss it on the protected page's talk page before using this template. Consider making changes first to the module's sandbox and test them thoroughly here before submitting an edit request. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request. When the request has been completed or denied, please add the |answered=yes parameter to deactivate the template.

Description of suggested change: Requested edit for Module:Road data/strings/JPN; .png files have been replaced with .svg versions. To view all the files, see Category:SVG expressway road signs of Japan on Commons. This is done in an effort to clean up Top 200 road sign images that should use vector graphics, also on Commons.
