- Swept in from the pub
I created this template to add on routeboxes of several Canberra districts. It uses {{RbE}} which is used on {{rint}} to produce the icons, so not too unusual in terms of template layout. Any objections before I add the route markers on several Canberra articles? --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 12:40, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
- No objections from me. I do wonder though, would it not be better to scale this up for all of Australia, AUS + NZL or even Oceania? Sticking solely to Canberra would set a precedent that's likely to lead to template spam. Besides, with route systems that are somewhat integrated with one another it'd save editors having to remember a handful of different templates... ― Wauteurz (talk) 10:29, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- I can see where you're coming from, but AFAIA, no other city in Oceania other than Canberra has a cycle network with route numbers or an integrated network for that matter (meaning that cycle paths just have generic names). I guess it would work for places like the Netherlands or Denmark, but I'm not familiar with those bike systems. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 10:40, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- That's exactly where my thoughts were, yeah. Speaking for the Benelux alone, there's LF-icon routes, numbered LF-routes, cycle highways, RAVeL, many on a more regional level, and then thousands of possible combinations at the lowest level because of the "fietsknooppunten" which you connect with one another to make your own route.
- Anyway, should in future more routes like these appear down under, I'd suggest merging it all into a single template like RINT, but I understand that this is as centralised as it can be at this time, which isn't a problem at all :) ― Wauteurz (talk) 11:02, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
