I would like to contribute to Wikipedia. In actuality, I would just like to be part of something meaningful and important. But I am not an expert in anything. Allnguyen (talk) 04:00, 13 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
You don't need to be a "big" expert to contribute. I get lots of ideas from books and magazines I read, or from things people link to from Twitter. Since Wikipedia summarizes what "reliable sources" say, it is much better to get your facts from such sources, in my opinion. But if you are really new, you can learn a lot about Wikipedia by following the discussions at WP:AfD. Good luck! HouseOfChange (talk) 04:39, 13 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
i want to learn about how to find my barings. today i got lost on a road trip. but i, for some reason, find maps very hard to use. any good pages i can start with? Allnguyen (talk) 09:27, 23 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Using a map is like riding a bike, something you learn with practice. I suggest practicing with a walking map, and a compass to help you line up the top of the map with the direction you are facing. Then use the map to navigate where you are walking. Learning mental rotation will also help. Good luck. HouseOfChange (talk) 15:15, 23 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Are there ways to understand the direction that freeway/highway travels based on its name? For example, the freeway 101-North? Allnguyen (talk) 19:34, 23 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Highway numbering system edit

 
Interstate 95 in Massachusetts

Numbers on the big interstate highways give a general idea of north-south vs east-west. But there are, as the article says, "numerous exceptions."

There are also state highways, and US highways. You can probably get by with a good mental picture of the highways near you. HouseOfChange (talk) 00:06, 24 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
