1. Well-written:
  1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.

Might be smoother to say 'continues to Red Bay in Franklin County, Alabama': " continues to Red Bay, Franklin County."

This is worded a little awkwardly: Corridor V was constructed to MS 23 by 2014.

  1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.

Add a wikilink for Amory

I am not saying this requires a map, I have never reviewed a highway article before; should it/can it have a map?

  • It can, but I'm not sure how to make one. Other articles have passed without a map.—CycloneIsaac (Talk) 19:27, 6 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
    • It is not required, and looks like a ton of work. Kees08 (talk) 04:45, 8 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
2. Verifiable with no original research:
  2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.

I think your first citation you meant to go to this, not the sentence after it: " and is maintained by the Mississippi Department of Transportation as part of the state highway system."

  • The citation has information on both, so it could stay where it is.—CycloneIsaac (Talk) 19:27, 6 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
  2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
  2c. it contains no original research.
  2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.
3. Broad in its coverage:
  3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.

Why? I do not know anything of the area, is it due to her passing, did it happen while she was alive because she was famous, etc: "The section of the route from Tremont to the Mississippi–Alabama state line is designated as Tammy Wynette Highway:

What route? - The route designation was used for another route from 1932 to 1940.

  3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
  4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
  5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
  6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
  6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
  7. Overall assessment.
