These rows fill the major Event table, and are modified using the template {{Event/Item}}. If you are working on a Major Event in PesachZ, please add add that event to this table. If the event is already listed, please add your username to the row, preceded by a pipe (|), and change the date to today's date in the updated= parameter.

This template accepts many parameters which must be separated from each other using pipe characters (|), but can be placed in any order and will automatically the correct parts of the table. To use a parameter you must keep the name of parameter (the part before the equals sign (=) identical to this list, and only modify what goes after the equals sign (=).

Accepted parameters:

name= The name of the event.
area= The county or are the event takes place in.
date= The estimated date(s) this event happens on.
road= The main road(s) affected by this event.
pl= A permalink to the affected road(s), or a link to documenting listing all the affected roads (usually a Waze event closure document).
source= A link to an official information source for this event, a government website, the hosting organizations webpage, etc.
status= Whether this event has been submitted to Waze yet for this season. It accepts the following options spelled only exactly as listed here in order to correctly change the color of the row, filled with anything else will display with a white background
- not submitted produces a red background
- submitted produces a light green background
- in progress produces an orange background.
Up to six editors can be listed in the table for any event. These can be the editors who are working to get it submitted, maintain the segments, or just have special knowledge of the event/area. They are entered as unnamed parameters. Meaning they are to be entered between two pipe (|) characters of the adjacent parameters. Each editors name (without any spaces) should be separated with a pipe (|).
updated= the date this event was last updated in this table. This is used to keep the table current, and identify stale entries.

The updated parameter (|updated=YY/MM(/DD)|) should be updated any time you update a row. Put the date you are modifying the row after the equals sign (=).

The |date=|, and |updated=| parameters should use the format YY/MM/DD. The day of the month is optional. Using this format will make it easier to sort the list by updated date. This will help ensure the information on the list is current, and make it easy to find stale rows which may need to be adopted by other editors.

For example an Event row should look like this;

{{Event/Item|date=14/10|in progress|username|updated=14/08}}

If there are multiple editors it should look like this

{{Event/Item|date=14/10|in progress|username1|username2|updated=14/08}}

Whenever you edit this table, please be sure to include the name of the event you are editing in the summary field under the edit box. ————————————————————————————————————

-This article is a US-based set of guidelines. It includes the community recommended guidelines for mapping rest areas.
+These rows fill the major Event table, and are modified using the template {{tl|Event/Item}}. If you are working on a Major Event in {{RootPage2}}, please add add that event to this table. If the event is already listed, please add your username to the row, preceded by a pipe (|), and change the date to today's date in the <code>updated=</code> parameter.
-== Definitions ==
-In Waze, the following terms are defined as follows:
-==== Rest Area ====
+This template accepts many parameters which must be separated from each other using pipe characters (|), but can be placed in any order and will automatically  the correct parts of the table. To use a parameter you must keep the name of parameter (the part before the equals sign (=) identical to this list, and only modify what goes after the equals sign (=).
-:A convenient stopping place located directly off of a highway, which typically provides, at minimum, parking and restroom facilities. Some may have information kiosks, vending machines, picnic areas or "dump" facilities for RVs.
-==== Welcome Center or Visitor Center ====
+==Accepted parameters:==
-:A special type of rest area, often located near state borders or near major airports.
-==== Service Area or Service Plaza ====
+*<code>name=</code> The name of the event.
-:A type of rest area which may include private commercial businesses such as fuel stations, and restaurants. These rest areas are typically found along the East Coast.
+*<code>area=</code> The county or are the event takes place in.
+*<code>date=</code> The estimated date(s) this event happens on.
+*<code>road=</code> The main road(s) affected by this event.
+*<code>pl=</code> A [[permalink]] to the affected road(s), or a link to documenting listing all the affected roads (usually a Waze event closure document).
+*<code>source=</code> A link to an official information source for this event, a government website, the hosting organizations webpage, etc.
+*<code>status=</code> Whether this event has been submitted to Waze yet for this season. It accepts the following options spelled only exactly as listed here in order to correctly change the color of the row, filled with anything else will display with a white background
+**<code>not submitted</code> produces a red background
+**<code>submitted</code> produces a light green background
+**<code>in progress</code> produces an orange background.
+*Up to six editors can be listed in the table for any event. These can be the editors who are working to get it submitted, maintain the segments, or just have special knowledge of the event/area. They are entered as unnamed parameters. Meaning they are to be entered between two pipe (|) characters of the adjacent parameters. Each editors name (without any spaces) should be separated with a pipe (|).
+*<code>updated=</code> the date this event was last updated in this table. This is used to keep the table current, and identify stale entries.
-==== Other related terms ====
-:A rest area or '''Rest Stop''' with limited or no public facility is a '''Parking Area''', '''Scenic Area''', '''Wayside Park''', '''Roadside Park''', or '''Picnic Area'''. These also have navigational value, and provide drivers a safe place to pull off the highway to rest, or do other tasks. These should be included as a rest area when editing the map (with special guidelines below).
-== Mapping guidelines ==
+The updated parameter (<code>|updated=YY/MM(/DD)|</code>) should be updated any time you update a row. Put the date you are modifying the row after the equals sign (=).
-=== Exiting the highway ===
-[[Image:Alabama_Welcome_1.jpg|right]]'''Road type'''
-In general follow the standard guidelines for road types leaving the highway as can be seen along the highway nearby the rest area.
-If the exit from the highway is a one-way road that can be taken at speed, it should be a ramp.
+The <code>|date=|</code>, and <code>|updated=|</code> parameters should use the format YY/MM/DD. The day of the month is optional. Using this format will make it easier to sort the list by updated date. This will help ensure the information on the list is current, and make it easy to find stale rows which may need to be adopted by other editors.
-If the main entrance is a two-way road, just use a parking lot type.
-As with all newly created roads, be sure to [[Creating_and_Editing_street_segments#Confirm_the_road_by_updating_details|confirm the roads]] so they route properly on the client map.
+For example an Event row should look like this;
-'''Naming'''
+{{Tlx|Event/Item|name=''EVENT NAME''|date{{=}}14/10|in progress|username|updated{{=}}14/08}}
-Follow the guidelines for your area when naming the exits from the highway. In the [[Road_Naming_(USA)#Exit_ramps_and_Entrance_ramps_.28on-ramps.29|US follow these guidelines]]. For example a typical exit ramp would be named "Exit ##: Rest Area" (if numbered), or simply "to Rest Area" if not numbered. If the Rest Area has a unique name or additional information, posted on signs at or approaching the area, common to plazas, and welcome centers, that should be included in the ramp name.
-Basically Entrance ramps should be named matching their signs, according the Road Names wiki guidance.
+If there are multiple editors it should look like this
-{| class="wikitable"
-|+A few examples
-|-
-!Sign Says
-!Ramp Name
-|-
-|Rest Area => || to Rest Area
-|-
-|Parking Area => || to Parking Area

-|Rest Area<br>Louisiana Welcome Center || to Rest Area / Louisiana Welcome Center

-|-
-|Rest Area<br>Trucks Only || to Rest Area / Trucks Only
-|-
-|Truck Haven || to Truck Haven
-|}
-=== The main parking area ===
+{{Tlx|Event/Item|name=''EVENT NAME''|date{{=}}14/10|in progress|username1|username2|updated{{=}}14/08}}
-[[Image:Alabama_Welcome_3.jpg|right]]'''Road type'''
-Inside the parking area there should be at least one segment using the parking lot road type that links between the ''exit from'' and ''return to'' the highway. Follow the general guidelines for [[Best_map_editing_practice#Parking_Lots|mapping a parking lot]] meaning only the main roads of the rest area should be mapped.
-Using only the parking lot road type will prevent the Waze server from sending cars off and on the highway through the rest area to avoid traffic.
-'''Naming'''
+'''Whenever you edit this table, please be sure to include the name of the event you are editing in the summary field under the edit box.'''
+————————————————————————————————————
-Generally the parking lot roads are not named, but if inside the city limits be sure to include the city name.
-=== Returning to the highway ===
-[[Image:Alabama_Welcome_4.jpg|right]]'''Road type'''
-When selecting the road type, generally follow the same guidelines as was done for the exit from the highway unless it is significantly different from the exit and would not make sense to match the exit type.
+''The actual contents of this page '''will only be visible''' in the [[{{BasePage2 }}/Closures|Major Events table]], or when editing this page.''

-Also follow the standard convention as was used for the exit. For interstates the typical convention would be "to I-5 N" (to Highway_Name Cardinal) and if a control city is shown on the local signs use "to I-5 N / Sacramento". If other information is displayed on the signs at the entrance back to the highway, add those to the name as appropriate according to the guidelines.

-[[Image:Alabama_Welcome_2.jpg|right]]
-The Rest Area Place area should be covered by an Area Place, drawn to the borders, and along right-of-way of the adjacent highway, but not snapped to the highway. Use two separate Places if there are two separate rest areas which are not connected by driveable roads on opposite sides of a single highway.
-==== Place categories ====
+{{Event/Item|name=Summer Streets|road=Park Ave|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=1984749524|source=http://www.nyc.gov/html/dot/summerstreets/html/home/home.shtml|date=08 First 3 Sundays|area=NYC|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/10|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ}}
-* '''Transportation''' (with no subcategory selected) should be set as the primary category.
-:''This will facilitate search results for Wazers who search for transportation related results. It is logically the best match category for these venues.''
-* '''Scenic Lookout / Viewpoint''' (under Outdoors) should be set as the second category.
-:''This category result is triggered anytime a Wazer searches for the words <code>Rest stop</code>, or <code>Rest area</code>, therefore to ensure the rest areas will appear in the search results for these search terms, this category needs to be included.
-* '''Any other appropriate categories for the venue''' based on other services available there, i.e. ATM, Food, Shopping, etc., '''except for Gas station'''. ''Gas stations should be mapped as a separate place area following the [[Places/Gas_Station|Gas Station place guidance]], and mapped to the boundaries of the gas station area.''
-==== Place naming ====

-The standardized name format has been optimized for both instant and regular search results.
+{{Event/Item|name=TD 5 Boro Bike Tour|area=NYC|date=05 First Sunday annual|road=5 Boroughs|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=790135118|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/08}}
-* The name begins with '''"Rest Area"''' to facilitate the instant search results, which are based on the first words of the search term.
-* If the rest area only allows certain types of vehicles, or has no facilities (restrooms),  that information should be made immediately apparent to Wazers in the search results. this information comes next in lowercase in parenthesis e.g '''"(trucks only)", "(no facilities)"''', or '''"(trucks only, no facilities)"'''. ''The term "no facilities" has been chosen to be polite, based on character width to keep the names as short as possible.''
-** Rest areas with no facilities should also specify that as the first line of the description saying '''"No restrooms"''' ''to accommodate those who are not familiar with the term facilities''.
-* The name of the highway comes next in the place's name, following a hyphen (-). If the rest area is only accessible from one direction of the highway, then include the direction cardinal in with the highway name. Rest areas which can be accessed from either side of the highway should just have the highway name, with no direction cardinal, e.g. '''" - I-75 N"''', or '''" - I-10"'''.
-* The mile location is the next component of the name, however MP, and MM are used in different regions to mean the same thing, and using either one exclusively nationwide could lead to confusion. It has therefore been decided to use '''"mile"''' exclusively for this purpose. ''The word "mile" only uses 2 more pixels width than "MM" when displayed in the client.''
-** Welcome centers, which will typically already have long names, and be very close to a state's border, should not include the mile in the place name. The mile should be entered as the first line of the description instead so it is still readily displayed to those who want to see it.
-* Unique information comes last, starting with the official unique name of the rest area, ''if'' there is one visible on signage at or leading up to the rest area. e.g. '''"Atchafalaya Welcome Center"'''
-** Colloquial, official given, and common names should be entered as alternate names, and as the first line of the description. ''This ensures the  names are both searchable, and apparent to Wazers who view the place details.''
-* Finally any special rest area type is placed at the very end of the name using lowercase in parenthesis. e.g. '''"(scenic view)", "(lookout point)".'''
-** Parking areas don't need to be specifically identified as such at the end of the name, because it should be apparent from the "(no facilities)" statement earlier, that the area is only for parking.

-|}
-==== Setting the stop point ====
-[[File:Rest area stop point.png|300px|thumbnail|right]]
-'''The stop point should be placed just before the first fork inside the area (usually at the end of the entrance ramp).'''
-To ensure proper routing through the individual PLRs in the area, the stop point has to be placed in a location common to all vehicles entering the area. Otherwise, in areas which divert certain vehicle types to specific sets of road segments, a stop point farther in to the road network would force routing all vehicles through one set of segments (the closest to the stop point).
-Routing past that point can be handled with partial restrictions on the segments, set for vehicle type. If the users add the rest stop as a stop along the navigated route to their destination, the navigation will continue past the stop point towards their destination, forcing it to try to find a route back to the highway, thereby giving directions past the stop point only along the unrestricted segments for that vehicle type.
-==== Additional places ====
-Some Rest Areas, particularly Service Plazas, will house individual businesses in them (e.g. a coffee shop, fast food restaurant, convenience store, information kiosk, etc.). These can be mapped as additional [[Places#Point Place|Place points]] with all their unique details, and positioned over the building they reside in.
-If fuel is offered, [[Places/Gas_Station#Add_a_Gas_Station|add a Gas Station]] using a [[Places#Area Place|Place Area]] over that location in the service plaza.
