I guess I'll take this one too! Should have the full review up soon... Dana boomer (talk) 21:02, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   • The lead could stand to be expanded some, with a summary of the history of the route.
   • In the Route Description section you have a partial sentence that reads "eaves Southport".
   • Same section you say "Shortly passing NY 368, NY 427". Should this be "shortly before passing" or "shortly after passing" or something?

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   • Ref 11 (Nat'l Bridge Inventory) should be formatted like everything else
   • Ref 12 (Empire State Roads) needs a publisher and access date. Also, what makes this reliable, as it appears to be a self-published source?
   • What makes Ref 14 (Gribble Nation) a reliable source?
   • The last sentence of the first paragraph of the Truncation and realignment section could use a ref. It's nothing controversial, but it'd be nice...

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

A few comments about prose and referencing, so I am going to put the article on hold. Let me know if you have any questions. Dana boomer (talk) 21:27, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Done for the most part, trying to solve reference 11.Mitch32^(UP) 21:40, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Everything looks good, so I'm going to pass the article. Thanks, as always, for the prompt response. Dana boomer (talk) 13:21, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
