The goal of the Maryland task force of the U.S. Roads WikiProject is to make Wikipedia the most comprehensive source of information for the Maryland highway system.

Scope

What do we cover?

We maintain articles relating to roadways of the state of Maryland. These include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following:

Existing and former Interstate Highways
Existing and former U.S. Highways
Existing and former Maryland state-numbered highways
Parkways maintained by the U.S. National Park Service

What do we not cover?

With some exceptions, we do not maintain articles about the following:

County highways, which are maintained by WikiProject Maryland
City streets, which are maintained by WikiProject U.S. Streets
Bridges and tunnels, which are both maintained by Wikipedia:WikiProject Bridges and Tunnels
The Department of Transportation and its subdivisions, which are maintained by WikiProject Transport

How you can help

Wanted articles

If there is any Maryland road-related article that you would like to see created, add a request for it below.

Ongoing tasks

Review recent changes to project articles. Most changes are constructive or at least well-intended, but some changes are vandalism and should be reverted.
Add missing links or populate redlinks in the redirect list, which is the list of links that feeds into the Recent Changes query.
Correct the tagged problems in articles in Category:Maryland road articles needing attention.
Update all Highway Location Reference references to reflect the 2014 documents that were released in July 2015.
In Route descriptions of route articles, replace Google Maps references with references to the state grid maps using Template:Maryland grid map. Rewrite the Route description if necessary to remove information that cannot be gleaned from the Highway Location Reference or grid maps, or use a separate reference to support such information.
Add National Highway System references and statements to all route articles with high- or mid-importance (see the Assessment page). The statements should be in the Route description.
Replace National Bridge Inventory references that use Template:NBI with other sources that do not rely on the programming of a third-party database.
Add missing routes in the lists of former state highways. However, all added information should be referenced. Inspiration for these missing routes may be found at the unofficial websites on the Resources page or in the All-time list.

Userbox

You may wish to add this task force's userbox, {{Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Roads/Maryland/Userbox}}, to your userpage. For a userbox with a custom route number, use {{Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Roads/Maryland/Userbox|Route 16}} where "16" can be replaced with the route number of your choice. The userboxes look like this:

This user edits articles about Maryland Routes.

Assessment

Assessment and the recognized content list for this task force have moved to Wikipedia:Wikiproject U.S. Roads/Maryland/Assessment.

Resources

Resources for this task force have moved to Wikipedia:Wikiproject U.S. Roads/Maryland/Resources.

Guidelines

Maryland highway articles mostly follow the national project guidelines. The exceptions are explained at Wikipedia:Wikiproject U.S. Roads/Maryland/Guidelines.
