How you can help
You can help by opening the List of cities and towns by name and selecting any location in red (which means that there is no article for it yet) and starting that article, or opening any location that you can provide more information about. Additionally, the list itself needs expanding.
Most of the existing city/town articles need to be modified to comply with the project standard (see below). You can check Category:City and town stubs to see which articles need expanding.

List
The list page for Project Routes is List of cities and towns by name.
Infobox
The Infobox to use for this project is Infobox town.
This is the basic syntax you need to get a complete infobox on the article page, just place this before any other text and fill in the variables.
{{Infobox town |town= |characters= |japanese= |image= |slogan= |region= |routes= |bottom= |leader= |badge= |type= |map= |colordark= |colorlight= }}
Template:Infobox town For the above parameters, here's what you should fill in:
- town: is the name of the town/city/locale
- characters: is the city name in Japanese characters
- japanese: is the city name in Japanese
- image: is the name of the image file name at Bulbagarden Archives
- slogan: is the official slogan of the town/city/locale
- region: is the region that the town/city/locale is in
- routes: is a list of the routes that lead from this area
- bottom: is either "Gym" for areas with Gyms or "none" if there is no gym
- leader: (For bottom=gym only) is the name of the area's Gym Leader
- badge: (For bottom=gym only) is the name of the Gym's badge
- type: (For bottom=gym only) is the main type of the Gym
- map: is the name of the image file name of the overview map at Bulbagarden Archives. If no map is available, leave blank
- colordark: is the color used for the main header of the infobox. Should reflect the town's name, type, etc.
- colorlight: is the color used for the subheaders of the infobox. Should be a lighter version of the first color
By completing the infobox as follows, you'll get a routebox like the one to the right.
{{Infobox town |town=Celadon City |characters=タマムシシティ |japanese=Tamamushi City |image=Celdaoncity-frlg.png |slogan=The City of Rainbow Dreams |region=Kanto |routes=[[Route 7]] (East)<br />[[Route 16]] (West) |bottom=gym |leader=Erika |badge=Rainbowbadge |type=Grass |map=Celadon City.png |colordark=ACE1AF |colorlight=D5EFD6 }}
