Articles should follow WP:USRD/STDS.
Naming convention[edit]
Articles should be titled "Alaska Route X" per WP:USSH.
Shields[edit]
The various shield graphics are located in Category:Alaska highway shields on Commons. {{jct}} can create the various links to highway articles with the appropriate shield graphics for use in the infobox or junction lists.
Categories[edit]
Articles should be placed in the following categories as appropriate:
- Category:State highways in Alaska for most highways
- Category:Interstate Highways in Alaska for highways that are also part of the Interstate Highway System in the state
Templates[edit]
Infobox[edit]
Use {{infobox road}} or {{infobox road junction}} as needed for articles. The state and type parameters should each contain the state's postal abbreviation.
Junction template[edit]
Use {{jct}} to create the entries in a junction list section for the article, or the junction list in the infobox. To use, insert {{jct|state=AK|AK|number}} into the article. If two to four highways are needed, use {{jct|state=AK|AK|first number|AK|second number}}. Further instructions can be found on the documentation page.
Stub[edit]
Use {{Alaska-road-stub}}
