 | This is a list of recognized content, updated weekly byJL-Bot (talk ·contribs) (typically on Saturdays). There is no need to edit the list yourself. If an article is missing from the list, make sure it istagged orcategorized (e.g.Category:Minnesota road transport articles) correctly and wait for the next update. SeeWP:RECOG for configuration options. |
Minnesota State Highway 7(2012-04-18)Minnesota State Highway 36(2024-06-27)SeeWP:USRD/STDS for details on an article's structure and formatting standards.
Articles should be named "Minnesota State Highway X" perWP:USSH. Additional articles may be named "U.S. Route X in Minnesota" or "Interstate X in Minnesota" if there is a Minnesota-specific article. County Roads should use either "County Road X (Y County, Minnesota)" or "County Road X (Minnesota)" depending on if the road is contained in one county or multiple counties. Other articles should use the common name of the roadway as a title.
All state highways should include the category tag: [[Category:Minnesota state highways|nnnA]] where nnn is 3-digit route number, and A is the letter designation if any (e.g. Route 1A is "001A", Route 2 is "002").
Minnesota has used four different types of shields:

According to official state maps, both the star and white square shields were in use between 1954 and 1956.
All state route shields have been created in the formatMN-X.svg, where X is the route number. They reside in the categoryMinnesota State Route markers.
All of the state highway markers past and present have been created and reside on the Commons. Shield pages inSister projects
| State Route shields on Wikicommons |

County shields, where they exist, reside on Commonshere. If necessary, there are two blank shields for county roads.File:County blank.svg is the pentagonal style, andFile:White County Plate Template.svg is the square style. Seethis page for a guide to which shield is used for which roads in which counties.
If a route is decommissioned, it still needs a browse box at the bottom of the article.
{{start srbox}}{{mn browse|previous_type=MN|previous_route=XX|route=[[List of Minnesota state highways|MN]]|next_type=MN|next_route=XX}}{{end box}}will create something like
| Browse numbered routes | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
← MN 1 | MN | → MN 3 | ||
Replace previous and next type with "US" or "Interstate"if and only if the previous or next route is not a Minnesota state highway. If the previous or next route is a U.S. Route,_type=US if it is an interstate,type=Interstate
This box should only be placed on pages that do not have an infobox, or are an article for an Interstate or U.S. Route in the Minnesota state highway system. On pages where a browse box already exists, you can omit the start and end templates, and just insert the mn browse, keeping the list in chronological order from south/west to north/east. For an example, see the browse box atU.S. Route 1 at the bottom of the article.
