Template:Cite WisDOT map/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template is used for referencing road maps published by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation or its predecessor agencies. This template will fill out the appropriate details for each map in its listing.

This template is based on {{Cite map}} so it falls into the Citation Style 1 (CS1) series of templates, although it can be set to emulate CS2 style.
