Route 66 shields
Could you make a shield for Route 66 shown here? Also, please make the same shield but for US84 and US54. They are signed on Interstate 40 in the Santa Rosa, New Mexico area and once near Tucumcari and I would like to place these in the article's exit list. Gfoley4 (talk) 00:37, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Capitol Loop
Ok, I got confirmation today from MDOT that: ""per federal law copyrights can not be placed on sign designs therefore the sign is in public domain. Although [I am] correct that it [Capitol Loop marker] does not appear in the MUTCD it is still consider a route marker." Additionally, "we make it a policy not to give out vector art for the simple reason it can be altered and we don't want altered versions distributed or used." Well, that's fine and dandy, but I could photoshop the current PNG to alter it. They can't prohibit the creation of SVGs though since the design is now stated to be in the public domain. I'm going to need some help to create an SVG to replace File:CapitolLoop.png because of the complexity of the detail in the Capitol Dome. any thoughts?  Imzadi  1979   →   21:26, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Shields for 7 Puerto Rico roads
Hi, I need shields for these 7 Puerto Rico roads.


 * PR-139 (this is a secondary road intersecting primary PR-14, thus the "county-style" shield is needed)
 * PR-501 (this is a tertiary road intersecting secondary PR-123, thus the traditional black numbers on round or oval white background, on square black background, is needed)
 * PR-502 (this is a tertiary road intersecting secondary PR-132, thus the traditional black numbers on round or oval white background, on square black background, is needed)
 * PR-504 (this is a secondary road intersecting primary PR-10, thus the "county-style" shield is needed)
 * PR-511 (this is a secondary road intersecting primary PR-14, thus the "county-style" shield is needed)
 * PR-578 (this is a secondary road intersecting primary PR-1, thus the "county-style" shield is needed)
 * PR-591 (this is a tertiary road intersecting primary PR-2, thus the traditional black numbers on round or oval white background, on square black background, is needed)

Should any additional info be required, please let me know! Thanks. Mercy11 (talk) 15:50, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
 * ✅. Due to glitches at Commons, they may not appear, but I assure you they have been created. –Fredddie™ 22:50, 22 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Freddie, although they ARE showing up in the respective infoboxes (for example PR-511 and PR-139), they are still NOT showing up whenever the jct template is used. For example see the entries for PR-511 and PR-139 in the infobox at PR-14. Thanks. Mercy11 (talk) 06:04, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
 * It could be related to the problems Commons was having. The problems are occuring when thumbnails were made for large files, not unlike what Jct does.  I'll try purging the files, perhaps that will help. –Fredddie™ 22:00, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

New Louisiana shields
As seen in, Louisiana has changed the color on their state route markers. Is it possible for the colors on our set of LA shields to be updated?  Dough 48  72  18:13, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I have been wondering about this too. What should we do about it? And why on earth would Louisiana change to begin with? Brandonrush   Woo pig sooie  17:54, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It is my understanding that the green ink used to produce the signs is expensive and fades faster than black ink. I also understand that unlike South Carolina or Oklahoma's recent design changes that Louisiana will replace the old green and whites with black and whites as the individual signs need replacement, to save money and because the basic design didn't change, just the colors. I don't see a rush to create a new full set of graphics, and we should probably wait until someone says that the black and white is more common than the green and white. P.S. My other half is from outside of Morgan City, LA, and his family still lives there. I'll have him periodically ask friends down there that if they start to notice that more of the new signs are in place over the old signs to let us know. Others can do the same, and then I'd say to switch the articles over.  Imzadi  1979   →   18:40, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
 * If the green really does fade quickly, than there should be quick turnover to the black signs. Brandonrush   Woo pig sooie  19:39, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It fade faster than black, not quickly. That means the life span is reduced, but not cut short. It could be years before they change over the state.  Imzadi  1979   →   20:08, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Old New Jersey shields
I would like to request several historical shields for US and state routes in New Jersey to be used in articles of routes that were removed by 1953.
 * For the state routes, I would like to request the following to the same specifications as File:NJ X (cutout).svg: 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 12, 17, 21, 23, 24, 26, 27, 28, 29, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 41, 44, 45, 47, 48, 49, 50, 52, 54
 * For the U.S. routes, I would like to request the following to the same specifications as File:Old US Route template.svg: 1, 9, 9W, 9E, 22, 30, 40, 46, 122, 130, 202, 206, 322  Dough 48  72  01:55, 1 June 2010 (UTC)


 * per G1. &mdash;Fredddie™ 02:18, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Can you fill the first 10 at least and save the rest for later?  Dough 48  72  02:27, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Typically, when users have a large request in mind, they pick the 10 most important ones in that group and request those. That's probably the best course of action here. –  T M F 19:19, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * For now, I would only like to request the following shields to be used in the New Jersey Route 39 article:


 * State route cutouts: 29, 37, 38, 54
 * US route cutouts: 30, 130, 206  Dough 48  72  00:04, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Thanks - If I can eventually find a photo for 9W, I'll request that one.  Dough 48  72  03:48, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Here is a picture of an old US 9W shield from NY. In addition, this page shows a bunch of old Tennessee US highway shields that follow the same specifications as the US 9W shield from NY. Based on this, I assume that the NJ US 9E/US 9W shields should be modeled on the NY US 9W shield.  Dough 48  72  00:15, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Texas FM/RM

 * I would be willing to give it a try with the Bot. What images are needed?--Svgalbertian (talk) 21:27, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Needed shields are at the state subproject's completion list. Fortguy (talk) 21:43, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Ugggh, what a horrible list, I would need to write a parser to figure out which files are still needed. So instead I decided write a paraser for TxDOT.
 * For the Ranch to Market Roads, only 3 files are needed File:Texas_RM_2224.svg, File:Texas_RM_2355.svg, and File:Texas_RM_2630.svg (current file uses wrong font). Cause of the low number, I will let humans handle those.
 * For Farm to Market we need 143 three digit signs and 1135 four digits signs, and one two digit sign. I will let a human handle File:Texas_FM_79.svg as it would use a different font size than the rest. The full list of signs needed can be found with the request: Commons:User:Highway Route Marker Bot/Requests.
 * Some Farm to Market roads are missing from the completion list, when I get some free time I will try to add those in. Fredddie pointed out a font issue with my current bot, so I will need to do some additional testing before I run these.--Svgalbertian (talk) 07:52, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * In addition, there is Category:Jct template transclusions with missing shields, which lists shields that missing and throwing errors at Jct. –Fredddie™ 21:57, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

All three digit signs have been created. Give them a look, and if there are no issues I will start on the 4 digit signs Thursday.--Svgalbertian (talk) 04:16, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Texas sign correction/request
Hey all, Am requesting an addendum be made for a Business Route sign in Texas. Business 101-B file:Texas Business 101.svg is a sign without the sublettering showing which business route it is, in this case, 101-B. Would like to request a Bus 101 route with the B underneath, similar to others. This does follow MUTCD, but I have no physical proof that the sign looks like this in real life (Google shows the way with the separate BUS sign above the regular state highway shield). Thanks. 25or6to4 (talk) 22:28, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
 * ✅ –Fredddie™ 01:48, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Texas Bus. signs, part 2
Thanks for the above request. I would like to request the rest of the uncompleted business shields, using the automated bot, but i do not understand what it wants for the 2 svg images. Would it be suitable to post the reqeust there and only put one image from the current business images so they can get completed? 25or6to4 (talk) 21:27, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I assume you are referring to WikiProject Texas State Highways/Completion list/Business Highways. Unfortunately the bot was only written to replace strings in one location, so each lettered route would have to be separate template. It also doesn't dynamically adjust font sizes, so 1-99 would be a different template than 100+. That means I would need 17 different templates to create 31 images. So at this point I am not interested, but that is not to say that I am not intrigued and I might re-write the bot in the future to accommodate this.--Svgalbertian (talk) 22:57, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that definitely doesn't sound feasible at this juncture. No problem.  We'll just need to build more business routes in Texas.  Go ahead and mark this declined and archive for now.  25or6to4 (talk) 23:55, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

More Texas
User:25or6to4 said he knew of more FM/RM routes not on the completion list. I guess I beat him to it. I added RM 2462 to the list although it is a former rather than existing route.

Also, FM 390 has a spur that needs a shield for the article's junction list. Although FM spurs are not designated separately from their parent routes, they are shielded differently. They use shields identical to state spur shields rather than FM shields but using the same number of the parent. Fortguy (talk) 00:17, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

 * I would support this. Are you planning on just doing 1 through 99, or do you intend on doing 3-digit routes too (which would probably require a copy of Series A to be dug up)?

 * My understanding of US copyright law is that the physical shapes of the letters in a typeface can't be copyright-protected. Font files for a computer are computer software, so they can carry a copyright. Having said that, and knowing that I'm not a laywer, once the letterforms are converted to a path, the job of the software is done, just as the job of a commercial image program is done once the image is created.

 * Dan, don't use Iowa shields in VA. Seriously, someone didn't use the right shield for VA-3000, using the name for a non-existent shield for Iowa. (Iowa's shields are technically different than other circles.) Using the jct with the type "sec" for secondaries and county#= in VA makes things simpler.  Imzadi  1979   →   01:54, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I didn't put the Iowa shields in. I think it just turned up that way when the anonymous IP who added them worked on the templates. And believe it or not, those junction templates already has "sec" for secondaries and the county names. DanTD (talk) 02:09, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

✅
 * I changed how Jct handles VA sec markers. Jct will now look for the file 'Circle sign #.svg' first before it will look for an 'Iowa #.svg' marker.  That being said, you may see some wide elliptical markers where there should be a circle.  I am working on a plan to correct this.


 * I am creating a set of wide markers in the naming scheme 'Ellipse sign #.svg' These will take the place of most files currently under the name 'Circle sign #.svg'  I will then create a set of circular markers, now somewhat residing at 'Iowa #.svg'.  Confused?  Here's a table:


 * {|class=wikitable

!Image !Old name !New name
 * -align=center
 * Circle sign 700.svg
 * Circle sign 700.svg
 * Ellipse sign 700.svg
 * -align=center
 * Circle sign 700 (Virginia).svg
 * Circle sign 700 (Virginia).svg
 * Circle sign 700.svg
 * }
 * }


 * Any files that are leftover in the 'Iowa #.svg' naming convention that aren't in the Iowa spec will be purged from Commons. This will allow all of the VA sec markers to be under the 'Circle sign #.svg' convention.


 * I would appreciate some help in creating these new files. I'm making them when I have time and as such, I am only in the mid-400s of the Ellipse signs.  I haven't started any of the 100-999 Circle signs. &mdash;Fredddie™ 04:06, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Question regarding use of US 1948 shields
So we're slowly building a selection of 1948-style US Highway shields. Since the MUTCD of the period said to post white square "oversize" markers at intersections, would it be a good idea to create a set of white square USHs for Jct? The cutout shields would still be used for infoboxes. I would send this request to HRMB. –Fredddie™ 02:12, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Probably should for legibility reasons if nothing else. Note that the 1948 oversize markers are identical to the 1961 markers other than having a white square in back instead of white. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 10:20, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

I know its Canada but...
Any one care to create a template for the bot to whip up some PEI route markers? suffixed route, non suffixed, more --Admrboltz (talk) 00:29, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Part of the problem with Canadian route markers is that they can still carry crown copyright. But after looking at the current shield, if you ask 10 people to draw a bushy tree most would draw something extremely similar, so I am willing to go out on a limb and say the design falls below the threshold of originality. You can find a vector version of the sign on page 73 of the Drivers's Handbook that could be extracted (the black border should be green, but the rest looks right). My next project is is Saskatchewan (see dicussion), but once that is done I can take on PEI.--Svgalbertian (talk) 21:50, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I am working with the Communications coordinator to see if its covered or not. Apparently the stupid trees are part of the PEI word mark. A SVG template for the three NB versions would be nice, as the ones we have are png. --Admrboltz (talk) 21:55, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * The trees in the wordmark are far more detailed than the ones in the road signs. I am willing to go ahead and tag it pd-ineligible, but if you do get premission be sure to log it with ORTS. As for NB, I won't take them at this time, but might in the future.--Svgalbertian (talk) 22:23, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thats what I was thinking too, but the sign shop people said it would be under Wordmark and Coat of Arms protection, and have sent me up the ladder. And OK, the NB ones should be good, they are just a shape and font. --Admrboltz (talk) 22:32, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * The basic design of the trees comes from the coat of arms, and since those were granted in in 1905 they are no longer covered by any copyright. Additionally, while the coat of arms have may have additional protection from the Coat of Arms Act, Wikimedia Commons is only concerned with copyright. But to be safe they can also be tagged insignia to warn of other protections. At this point I am still willing to go ahead at make these signs.--Svgalbertian (talk) 23:00, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Sweet :) once the template is created, I will fill in the HWMB request. --Admrboltz (talk) 23:02, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Here you go. Sorry for the delay, I was away from my computer on the holidays. The trees in the drivers handbook were different than seen on the sign, so I had to draw them by hand based on signs on Flickr.

 * While we're at it, I'd like to add a request a New York Bicycle Route 25. DanTD (talk) 17:38, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * And as I posted here, that list is missing about a dozen routes. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 17:50, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't see that. I apologize. DanTD (talk) 18:02, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

OK, why are we using markers named "DE Bike foo" for other states? Clearly that's a naming convention problem. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 17:50, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Two other concerns: File:US Bike 13 Alternate.svg and File:DE Bike 1.svg are using identical styles (which will eventually lead to two redundant sets of markers over two NCs), and both are using a stretched-out version of the bicycle icon. Compare the bike on those to the bike on File:US Bike blank.svg. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 17:58, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I think you just answered your own question; Some bike route shields from other states and those in Delaware are identical to each other. DanTD (talk) 18:02, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * If so, then DE should be using a national set. Having two sets of identical shields is silly. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 18:04, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * And a further comment to underscore why we shouldn't be using DE Bike foo as the naming convention: that design is a national design; specifically MUTCD sign M1-8. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 18:04, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Sounds like a rename request, and have the HWMB create say 1-99 of the M1-8 signs? --  Admr Boltz  18:06, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me. The bike needs to be fixed before the marker is sent to HRMB, though. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 18:08, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree we need a national set of shields based off File:US Bike 13 Alternate.svg along with a template for HRMB to make them. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  20:05, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Since no one else has suggested new names for the markers, I'll present a proposal: rename the M1-8-style markers (like File:DE Bike 1.svg) to "US Bike # M1-8.svg" and the black-on-white (MUTCD M1-9, like File:US Bike blank.svg) to "US Bike # M1-9.svg". –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 21:51, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * As a disclaimer, the M1-8 shields are technically not for U.S. numbered bike routes, they are meant to be used for generic numbered bike routes. So, "US Bike x" is probably fine for the M1-9 U.S. numbered bike routes whereas something like "Bike x M1-8" could be used for the M1-8 generic bike routes. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  22:31, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I see your point, but that name seems a bit ambiguous to me. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 22:41, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * How about Oval Bike Route x.svg and US Bike Route x.svg? --  Admr Boltz  23:14, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * That really doesn't do anything to resolve my ambiguity concern re the M1-8 signs. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 23:47, 2 February 2011 (UTC)


 * I like your original idea, but the "M1-8" and "M1-9" sections should be in parentheses. DanTD (talk) 23:22, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Agreed. –Fredddie™ 23:29, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * If that's what most people want, I'm OK with that. Personally, I'm indifferent as to whether or not parentheses are used. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 23:47, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * For reference, the MUTCD refers to the white and green oval marker as "the Bicycle Route (M1-8) sign" whereas the white and black acorn-looking marker is referred to as "The U.S. Bicycle Route (M1-9) sign". Perhaps a naming convention such as "bike route xx US.svg" and "U.S. Bicycle Route xx.svg", respectively, would be slightly more clear? The layman editor won't make any distinction based on MUTCD sign codes. --  LJ  ↗  08:14, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Another comment: The U.S. Bicycle Route sign is fairly new, and is a program where route numbers are approved by AASHTO similar to the U.S numbered highways. To the best of my knowledge, there are few (if any) bicycle routes that have been officially approved such that many of these images would need creation at this point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ljthefro (talk • contribs)
 * Now that I could get behind. My biggest problem with the conventions proposed above was that they didn't clarify what country the M1-8 signs belonged to. I'd probably drop the dots in U.S. in the second NC though since we don't use them in any of the other marker NCs. –  T <font color="#0000C0">M F 17:53, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Historic MN shields
I need a sample/template for the bot to create a set of 1920 and 1934 route markers for Minnesota. The two are identical save for the color, the 1920 is gold and the 1934 is white.

This is an example of an actual 1920 marker. (Another here.) Another is on the legend of this map and there's a good artist's representation on the back of this one.

I did make a few PNGs in the 1934 style but they're not particularly good and I'm pretty sure they're not shaped right.

--Sable232 (talk) 20:10, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

 * I have a working alphabet and a set of the wider numbers. If skinnier numbers are needed, I can use the font that's available.  Now the issue is creating the cutout.  There's a way to do it so it's not a lot of work, but I have yet to find it.  If you have a cutout shape that you'd like me to use, please share it! –Fredddie™ 01:50, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Texas FM business route
Shields are needed for Business Farm to Market Road 1431-J. This road is less than a year old and is one of only three such roads in the state. Kinu discovered it while destubbing the parent route. It needs lettered shields for the infobox such as:



The parent route's junction table also calls up more generic, unlettered shields such as:

Ohio State Route shields
A Shield is needed for Ohio State route 4s. This road does not have a shield, page or section of a page about it. Route11 (talk) 00:43, 9 May 2011 (UTC)


 * There is probably a good reason why it's not there, so here are a few questions for you. Where is/was 4S?  What time period?  Cutout or square?  Block or rounded font?  Can you prove it is/was there? –Fredddie™ 03:05, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Ohio State Route 4s is located in Dayton, Ohio. I do not know when it was put in but, it still exist today. The shield should be square and have rounded font. The only prove I have of it existing is this list of SR 4s junctions from ODOT (Ohio Department of Transportation):. My link will not work to the PDF so click on the link, Click select route by number, Click 002-039, then find 0004S and click on MOT for proof.

❌ I am going to pass. Checking Street View, it's clear that SR 4S is signed simply as SR 4. However, SR 4B, in Butler County, is signed as SR 4 Bypass, so it simply needs a banner. –Fredddie™ 20:21, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Is there any chance of making a SR 4B shield? Route11 (talk) 21:06, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

1926 U.S. shields for Minnesota
File:US 10N (MN).svg and File:US 10S (MN).svg need to be replaced with the 1926-style shield. Both of these routes were removed in 1934, so the existing images are incorrect.

I would also like to request an example of a 1926 U.S. shield for Minnesota for the bot to use as a sample to create the state's full set. I'm not familiar with that process or what it entails though. --Sable232 (talk) 20:52, 15 December 2010 (UTC)


 * The current scheme of things isn't to replace shields made in the current, 1971 specs directly with previous versions. We have started to set up types of US 1926, US 1948 and US 1961 in both the infobox and jct. Combine that with the creation of older spec state markers, and an article can have the right vintage markers for the end year of an old highway. (As an example, look at U.S. Route 112. Even the Michigan state trunklines have cutout versions of the diamonds. <span style="background:#006B54; padding:2px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" > Imzadi  1979   →  23:43, 15 December 2010 (UTC)


 * I know, but considering that these existing ones aren't used and never will be since AASHTO doesn't do letter suffixes anymore, I figured it'd be more prudent to just overwrite them. --Sable232 (talk) 00:45, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I know what you mean. US 102 hasn't existed since 1928, yet we have 1961 and 1971 spec versions of it. I think the full sets are being made more for consistency (everything is there in case we want it later). <span style="background:#006B54; padding:2px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" > Imzadi  1979   →  01:26, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Do you want the suffix to be off-center like this photograph of a 10N shield shows, or were you wanting something more conventional? —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 08:33, 16 December 2010 (UTC)


 * If possible, yes, I think it should be as the actual shield is. Besides, 10S would probably look too much like like 105 if the letter was the same size. --Sable232 (talk) 03:15, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, it's not the size I'm asking about so much as the off-centered-ness. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 15:10, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, keep it off-center if it's feasible. --Sable232 (talk) 03:23, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

I would still like these... I'm going to start working on a 1920s route list soon and I expect to need them. --Sable232 (talk) 19:44, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

Interstate shields
At Commons:Category:Interstate_Highway_shields_with_name_of_state, I-55, I-94, and I-290 are missing for Illinois; I'd like to request these.

I'd also like to request some historical shields for use at Interstate. The article mentions four revisions to the design - 1957, 1861, 1971, and 1978 - I'd like to add a diagram of each to show the changes (if the 1978 design is still used, obviously, we have that). PaulGS (talk) 22:06, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Were you thinking something along the lines of [[Media:US shield evolution.svg]]? I think that would be useful in the article.  Also, I fixed the interwiki link to Commons. –Fredddie™ 04:56, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, although I was thinking individual shields so they'd be available elsewhere, too, if ever needed (or as templates for others). But combining them also works, and that wouldn't be hard to put together. PaulGS (talk) 01:26, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
 * The others will have to correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure we have everything we need. It's just not nearly as obvious as it is with the USH shields.  The MUTCDs themselves are a bit foggy as the depictions from 1971 edition look just like the 1961 edition.

As I don't know their copyright status, please advise on that before I upload them, or should they be e-mailed while you research that? <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 05:04, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, I can't wait to see them. I'm afraid I don't know the copyright status myself, but there is a list on this somewhere. DanTD 05:16, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes check.svg They have been uploaded to Wikipedia in case they are fair use and not PD (in which case they are not acceptable for Commons). <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 05:45, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

Great Lakes Circle Tours
Ok, I've confirmed that the markers are PD. Can someone help me get them converted to SVGs and rendered in MTUCD green? Once created, can they be uploaded directly to Commons? Thanks in advance.  Imzadi 1979  →   02:07, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

 * We'll also need MUTCD brown versions of the LSCT and LMCT markers as well.  Imzadi 1979  →   23:37, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Once the green version is made, making it brown is as simple as find/replace. –Fredddie™ 02:28, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I've cross-posted a request at Graphic Lab/Illustration workshop as well.  Imzadi 1979  →   01:13, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry I didn't see this sooner, but I just got here. I am working on these. It is a shame that the rings on each sign are angled so differently. They are not even smooth curves. But I will get them done. <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 03:38, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

OK, these are done. I also included the Seaway Trail, which is mentioned in the GLCT article in lieu of a tour around Lake Ontario. I do not have a Commons account, so what should be done with them. (I need some guidance in getting a Commons account.) <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 08:45, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Unified login should have some links to help you set up a Single, Unified Login (SUL) which would "port" your user name and password to other project pages. It will then also link your accounts on each server together, so that if you login on enwp, it will also log you in on Commons, etc. That's the best place I can think to start on your account issue.
 * If you're up for it, the Michigan Heritage Route markers are in GIF format here at the moment. There are three of them, but fortunately, the only difference between them is a colored bar with a word on the bottom. They are:
 * File:HeritageHistoric.gif,
 * File:HeritageRecreational.gif, and
 * File:HeritageScenic.gif.
 * If those can be converted at some point, then Michigan's tourist routes will be covered. Thanks for your hard work so far!  Imzadi 1979  →   15:53, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
 * The Circle Tour signs have been uploaded to Commons. There are 8 of them: the overall GLCT, 4 lake tours (plus 2 in brown), and the Seaway Trail. I would like someone to check the copyright notifications and modify them if needed, please. I don't want them deleted because I screwed up that information. Thank you.
 * I will see what I can do with the Michigan Heritage signs in a day or so. They all have the same image, making it easier. Anyone know what font that is? <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 19:08, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Green-and-white Louisiana shields
Hey guys! I'm requesting a shield like seen here, but with the numbers 1208-5, 1208-6, and 950-10 through -17. Also, I'm requesting another shield, with numbers 950-1 through -9, but with this layout. Thanks!! <font color="#F7D117">Mcdonaat <font color="#F7D117">  20:17, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * under 10 shield maximum. --Rschen7754 07:32, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

CR template
I would like to request that a template be made for the generic CR jct shields (without the name or the word "County"), similar to File:MUTCD_M1-6_template_00.svg. I would like this in order to send a request for HRMB to make the remainder of the CR jct shields between 1-999. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  13:18, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Why? Most of them already exist, and we've been making them as they show up in the Jct missing shield category. –Fredddie™ 13:52, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
 * It would allow for a complete collection should someone expand articles in which one of the CR shields would be needed. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  14:36, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
 * ❌ I will continue to make them as needed. –Fredddie™ 14:40, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

Chicago-Kansas City Expressway
Can I have a banner for the Chicago-Kansas City Expressway like the one seen here? <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  00:58, 6 September 2012 (UTC)


 * I can do this. It seems fairly simple. Tell me, is this logo copyrighted? So I know whether to put it on WP for fair use, or free at Commons. <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 02:31, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * It's a fairly new logo, so I have a feeling it might be copyrighted. To be safe, the sign should be uploaded with a fair-use rationale. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  03:12, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * It's done. Where should it go? <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 03:20, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * In the Chicago-Kansas City Expressway article. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  03:39, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * ✅. It is uploaded as File:Chicago_kc_sign.svg. I leave you the honor of putting it on the article. <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 04:09, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Alternate Pennsylvania Turnpike shield
Can I have a version of File:Pennsylvania Turnpike logo.svg that has black text on a white keystone, as it appears on BGSs? It would be useful for instances where the shield is placed onto a dark background, such as green. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  03:10, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I can make it easily, but it does not need to be uploaded to Wikipedia or to Commons because neither uses it. If you want me to send it to you, go to my talk page and use the e-mail link. <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 18:11, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I was intending on using it for a userbox on Wikipedia because it shows up better on a green background than a green shield. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  18:36, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
 * It is now uploaded to Commons as File:Pennsylvania_Turnpike_logo_white.svg. <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 22:45, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the shield. It may help to include a thin black border around the shield when it is viewed alone to increase visibility. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  01:32, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Typically, we add a 1px solid black stroke to images with a white border. –Fredddie™ 02:33, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * OK. Done. <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 02:45, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Looks good. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  02:48, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I like that userbox. You should make it available (with variable exit number) to the general Wikipedia population. <font face="Century Gothic">  → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 07:20, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * The userbox is available at User:Mr. Matté/Userboxes/Exit number 2. I posted it and its counterpart at WP:UBX/LOCATION to make it more visible to users. <font color="#EEBB80">Dough <font color="#EEBB80">48 <font color="#EEBB80">72  18:59, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

Georgia State Route 82 Connector
Can a shield for Georgia State Route 82 Connector be made? 01:55, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * This is done. The lack of this shield flagged two categories, Category:Jct template transclusions with missing shields and Category:Infobox road transclusions without route marker.  There's no real need to make a request when these categories are flagged. –Fredddie™ 02:36, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I apologize. I didn't know that this was unneeded. Thank you for bearing with me through my growth as an editor. Allen (Morriswa) (talk) 19:00, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
