Filling out the table
[edit]I'm slowly converting this over to the templates a section at a time. If anyone would like to help, there's plenty of information that needs to be added.
Taking the first row as an example, before completing it, the coding looks like:
{{routelist row|local |state=TX |type=Spur |route=1 |length_mi= |length_ref= |terminus_a= |terminus_b= |local=[[Uvalde, Texas|Uvalde]] Spur |established=1939 |established_ref= |decommissioned=1943 |decommissioned_ref= |notes=none }}
Now, if I look up the designation in the Highway Designation Files, I can change the established year to the more specific 1939-09-26
, change the decommissioned year to the more specific 1943-12-16
and give it some termini. Because the one terminus should contain a link to the location, I should unlink it in the local name column as well. I can verify the name of the spur, and if the HDF had the length, I could insert that. Finally, I can apply a citation using {{TxDOT}} for the dates (and the length, if possible). That would look something like:
{{routelist row|local |state=TX |type=Spur |route=1 |length_mi= |length_ref= |terminus_a=U.S. Fish Hatchery |terminus_b= [[U.S. Route 90 in Texas|US 90]] west of [[Uvalde, Texas|]] |local=Uvalde Spur |established=1939-09-26 |established_ref=<ref name=SL1>{{TxDOT|SL|1|access-date= July 26, 2015}}</ref> |decommissioned=1943-12-16 |decommissioned_ref=<ref name=SL1/> |notes=none }}
Just one last note, but since the first {{TxDOT}} in the first footnotes for Spur 1 will link to Texas Department of Transportation, all of the others should add |link=no
to the template so that the department's name isn't linked in every footnote. Imzadi 1979 → 10:21, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
