[edit] New Revision (March 3, 2006)
Alan, it looks much better now. Great cleanup.
Should we potentially add the main NJ articles to it (sort of like Template:New York)? //MrD9 23:30, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for noticing. Absolutely, we should add some of the main articles to the template. Alansohn 04:10, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] U.S. state templates
Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. states/state templates lists and displays all 50 U.S. state (and additional other) templates. It potentially can be used for ideas and standardization. //MrD9 07:08, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Standardization of state templates
There is currently an ongoing discussion regarding standardization of state templates (primarily regarding layout and styling) at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject U.S. states/state templates. An effort was made earlier this year to standardize Canadian province templates (which mostly succeeded). Lovelac7 and I have already begun standardizing all state templates. If you have any concerns, they should be directed toward the discussion page for state template standardization. Thanks! — Webdinger BLAH | SZ 22:55, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Regions
I just added additional regions of New Jersey that are listed at Regions of the United States#New Jersey. There are also 2 regions without articles (Greater Atlantic City Region and Southern Shore Region). There are now more regions in the state than counties. The problem has to do with the many different types of regions:
- North Jersey, Central Jersey, South Jersey
- Delaware River Region, Gateway Region, Greater Atlantic City Region, Shore Region, Skylands Region, Southern Shore Region (tourism regions from http://www.state.nj.us/travel/regional_tourism.html)
- Atlantic Coastal Plain, Delaware Valley, Highlands, Jersey Shore, Meadowlands, Pascack Valley, Piedmont, Pine Barrens, Raritan Bayshore, Ridge-and-valley Appalachians (geological areas)
- Gold Coast, North Hudson (other geographical/slightly geological)
- New York metro area, Tri-State Region
Should all of these regions be listed? If not, what criteria should be used to determine the "important ones"? Should the regions be divided up in the template (roughly as in the above)? Any other ideas or suggestions? --Scott Alter 17:05, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

- Why not include all of them. There's more than one way to slice up the state. Do any of them truly overlap? I don't think so. Alansohn 17:23, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
