Indiana Speed Limit Implementation
 
With the help of the tools Terry developed, generated maps for tracking speed limit implementation
* '''enfcer74''' (R4 -> R5 SM)
Editors were not excited about SL implementation and the overwhelming number of segments that would need work. I jumped in and gave a helping hand to show SMs aren't immune to having to do that hard work, too! Inspiring lower ranks to join in the effort and eventually brought us from a low of 36th place to 4th in scored completion, from the Waze speed limit sheet.

West Virginia Speed Limit Implementation
* '''phoenixhawke''' (R2 -> R4)

West Virginia
 
Personalized the West Virginia wiki immediately upon assuming SM role. Added Major Road Naming Standards (i.e. WV-### and CR-###/##), 1/4/8 UR Management Policy, Minimum Lock Standards, Walking Trails/Pedestrian Boardwalk Guidance, Counties and Cities listings with links to GIS sites and PLs.
