Structure and standards
[edit source]Articles should follow WP:USRD/STDS.
Naming convention
[edit source]Articles should be titled "New Mexico State Road X" per WP:USSH.
Shields
[edit source]The various shield graphics are located in Category:New Mexico State Road shields on Commons. {{jct}} can create the various links to highway articles with the appropriate shield graphics for use in the infobox or junction lists.
Categories
[edit source]Articles should be placed in the following categories as appropriate:
- Category:State highways in New Mexico for most highways
- Category:Interstate Highways in New Mexico for highways that are also part of the Interstate Highway System in the state
- Category:U.S. Highways in New Mexico for highways that are also part of the U.S. Highway System in the state
- Category:Transportation in X County, New Mexico for each county the highway traverses.
Templates
[edit source]Infobox
[edit source]Use {{infobox road}} or {{infobox road junction}} as needed for articles. The state parameters should contain the state's postal abbreviation. The type codes are the same as for the junction template below.
Junction template
[edit source]Use {{jct}} to create the entries in a junction list section for the article, or the junction list in the infobox. To use, insert {{jct|state=NM|type|number}} into the article. If two to four highways are needed, use {{jct|state=NM|type|first number|type|second number}}. Types can be I for Interstates, US for US Routes or NM for state routes. Further instructions can be found on the documentation page.
Stub
