Part 3: Implementing the convention

=A. Official policy=

The official policy draft is located at Wikipedia:Manual of Style (U.S. state highways). Feel free to edit the proposal.

Voting takes place here and there:

{{Wikipedia:State route naming conventions poll/Part3/Vote}}

=B. Page moves=

Page moves take place only after the policy has passed. (You can sign up though).

First of all, the following need to be notified:

Secondly, sign up for moves. Strike out ones that you have completed. Fix double redirects, but do not "fix" any other links to the old name. It would be helpful to create the redirects ASAP too.

ALL NON-ADMIN USERS MUST BE SIGNED UP BY THE TIME WE NOTIFY CURPS (see above for time). This is so you do not get blocked by Curps. Admins are automatically whitelisted.

How to mass move pages:

1) Move the page, showing WP:SRNC for justification

2) Check for double redirects

3) Check all possible sources for articles- that would be lists, categories, stub categories, WikiProject templates

4) Create redirects with a completion list (if time allows)

=Signups for [[User:Rschen7754bot]]=

This bot can only convert links such as "Iowa State Highway xx" to "Iowa Highway xx". After I fix the U.S. Routes I can do some states. If you want to sign up a state for this, add it to the list below. Don't convert P2 links to P1 if it goes against WP:USSH. Only links to existing pages can be fixed at this time. Apologies.

=Signups for [[WP:AWB|AWB]]=

NE2 has run AWB on a lot of states to change links and text for all routes, whether or not they have articles. If you want others done, you can add the state below or let me know. AWB can also help fix double redirects after moves by generating a list of all possible redirects and then applying regexes to the redirect pages.
