Help: Adding Regulations

This page outlines the standard formatting for adding new Title 49 regulations to the CVEO Wiki. All regulations must use the {{Violation}} template to ensure they appear correctly on the Master Dashboard and the Printer-Friendly Cheat Sheet.

1. Page Architecture

All regulations should be consolidated into their top-level section (e.g., 391.11 or 393.9). Do not create new pages for sub-paragraphs; use the <tabber> architecture instead.

2. The Violation Template

Every subsection must be wrapped in a {{Violation}} template. Copy the block below and paste it into the appropriate tab.

{{Violation
|Section =
|TargetPage =
|Description = 
|OOS = 1
|ViolationCategory = Driver
|InspectionLevel = Level 3, Level 2, Level 1
|TypicalAction = Out of Service / Citation
|StateNotes = 
|ReferenceLinks = [https://www.searchenginejournal.com/link-title-attribute/335415/ page title]
}}

Field Guide:

Section: The exact regulation code (e.g., 391.11(b)(2)).
Targetpage: The main regulation without the sub sections for wiki referencing.
Description: A concise explanation of the violation.
OOS: Enter 1 for Yes (triggers red alert), 0 for No.
ViolationCategory: Use either Driver or Vehicle.
InspectionLevel: (e.g., Level 3, Level 2, Level 1).
TypicalAction: Standard enforcement action (e.g., Warning, Citation, OOS).
StateNotes: Enforcement context specific to Illinois.
ReferenceLinks: Use the format: [https://www.searchenginejournal.com/link-title-attribute/335415/ page title]. Words after the URL but within the bracket will act as a title for the URL and hide the full URL link. (Note: Links are configured to automatically open in a new tab).

3. Regulatory Guidance & Memos

If you have a PDF memo, upload the file first, then anchor it at the bottom of the page using this tag:

<span id="Guidance"></span>
== Regulatory Guidance & Memos ==
<pdf width="1000" height="600">File:Your_Filename_Here.pdf</pdf>

4. Navigation

Always include the "Quick Jump" navigation bar at the top of the page so field units can instantly reach the guidance:

<div style="background: #f8f9fa; padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #c8ccd1; margin-bottom: 15px;">
'''Quick Jump:''' [[#Guidance | Regulatory Guidance]] | [[#top | Return to Top]]
</div>
