Here is a list of references I use commonly in article editing and building. Links without exact references will typically provide access to groups of reference material.

General References

[edit]

US Census Bureau P.L. 94-171 County Maps

[edit]

For referencing locations in the US. See below for more exact examples, but the general format is as follows:

<ref name="CensusMapXXxxxx###">{{cite map |url=*URL ADDRESS* |publisher=[[U.S. Census Bureau]] |title=P.L. 94-171 County Block Map (2010 Census): *Countyname* County, *TWO-CHAR STATE* |date=*DATE IN BOTTOM LEFT CORNER* |author= U.S. Census Bureau Geography Division |sheet=*Index Sheet*/*Sheet (#)##* |format=PDF |accessdate=*ACCESSDATE*}}</ref>

N.B:

  • <ref name> is "CensusMap *TWO-CHAR STATE* *Fourcharcounty* *###*", e.g. "CensusMapFLMiDa" for the Index Sheet of Miami-Dade County, Florida; "CensusMapMTHill27" for Sheet 27 of Hill County, Montana.
  • If the number at the URL's end is 000, then "|sheet=Index Sheet", otherwise "|sheet=##" or "|sheet=###". The URL Number must have three digits!
  • If a Census map determines that a junction is on a boundary, then use the incorporated municipality; if none, use the CDP with the greater/greatest population. If the junction lies between two or more municipalities, or there's only CDP's that are similarly sized/important, then amend the RJL as follows: instead of "|location=xxx", use "|location_special=[[Location 1, State|Location 1]]–[[Location 2, State|Location 2]]" with as many – followed by marked-up locations as necessary.
  • Remove the wikilink from "U.S. Census Bureau" if already present in references.
  • Previous versions of this citation use |cartography=Geography Division |at=Sheet instead of |author= U.S. Census Bureau Geography Division |sheet= - update to the second form.

US Census Bureau County Maps for Florida


Florida Department of Transportation <-- A US-based proxy may be required to access all FDOT material!


Designated Roads Listing. Used to reference memorial routes, historic highways, etc. Referenced as follows:

<ref name="DesRoads">{{Cite web |url=http://www.dot.state.fl.us/planning/statistics/hwydata/desroads.pdf |title=Listing of Designated Roads in Florida |publisher=[[Florida Department of Transportation|FDOT]] - Transportation Statistics Office |date=August 5, 2014 |page=*PAGENUMBER* |format=PDF |accessdate=*ACCESSDATE*}}</ref>

N.B:

  • Use "|page=" if the designation exists only in one county; remove otherwise.
  • Keep wikilink on "FDOT", unless another prior reference specifically refers to the acronym.


County Highway General Maps. Referenced as follows:

<ref name="*countyname*map">{{cite map |publisher=[[Florida Department of Transportation]] |title=General Highway Map *County Name* County, Florida |url=*URL ADDRESS* |edition=*IF REVISED* |year=*MONTH YEAR* |author= Florida Department of Transportation Surveying and Mapping Office |format=PDF |accessdate=*ACCESSDATE*}}</ref>

N.B:

  • Remember to check that all fields are valid in each "new" county map.
  • Check to see if there is a revision table and put latest version at "|edition=". "|year=" should be the original version.
  • Remove wikilink from FDOT if already present in references.
  • Monroe County has three maps: see below for more details.


Straight Line Diagrams. Use County pulldown then use "County Wide Roads" map in Roadway ID to locate individual diagrams in Roadway ID list. Referenced as follows:

<ref name="SLD#">{{cite web |url=*URL* author=District # |title=Straight Line Diagram of Road Inventory *ROADWAY ID* |date=*LATEST REVISION DATE* |publisher=[[Florida Department of Transportation]] |format=PDF |accessdate=*ACCESSDATE*}}</ref>

N.B:

  • For the ref name:
    • Use <ref name="SLD"> if there is only one diagram for the road.
    • Use <ref name="SLD1">, <ref name="SLD2">, etc. for multiple diagrams within one county.
    • Use <ref name="SLDxxxx"> if there is a single diagram in each county in turn, e.g. MiDa = Miami-Dade, Brow = Broward.
    • Use <ref name="SLDxxxx1">, <ref name="SLDxxxx2">, etc. for multiple diagrams in each county in turn, e.g. Monr1, Monr2, etc.
    • Use <ref name="SLDxxxx#.#"> for one-way sections of road, numbered with the decimal matching the last digit of the Roadway ID, e.g. Monr6.1, Monr6.2. Remove xxxx if in only one county, e.g. SLD.1, SLD1.1, SLD1.2, etc.
  • Use this table for the District number.
  • Use the latest revision date of all sheets as the date for the diagram.
  • Remove wikilink from FDOT if already present in references.
