To Work On list (specifics)

• Sorry it has taken me so long to deal with this. To start off the intro is way too big. Remember that the intro is only meant to be an introduction to the article not a route description. -- /MWOAP|Notify Me\ 21:12, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

 Fixed - Cut a couple of sentences out. ---Dough4872 18:40, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

• Dablinks are not resolved.

• New York State Route 287
• Oyster Bay, New York

 Fixed- For the NY 287 link, the dab page lists two separate NY 287's that existed at different times. The template used automatically links to New York State Route 287 and I do not see any need to directly link to one of the two NY 287's. Fixed Oyster Bay link. ---Dough4872 18:40, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

• Source 7 seems not fully verifiable. Could we find a Governmental Law report?

 Fixed - Found source from NY legislature. ---Dough4872 18:40, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

• Source 36, what type of source is it? Is it online?
  • It is a book source not online. ---Dough4872 18:40, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
