Reviewer: GaryColemanFan (talk) 23:38, 4 December 2009 (UTC) This article looks very good overall. I have a few minor concerns:Reply

  • The "Route description" section would probably work better if it was split into two paragraphs.
    • Done
  • "State Route 231 (SR 231) begins at SR 23 0.79 miles (1.27 km) north of Sprague and a diamond interchange with Interstate 90" - this means that it also begins 0.79 miles north of the diamond interchange?
    • SR 23 doesn't begin 0.79 mi north of the I-90 interchange, fixed
  • "0.72 miles (1.16 km) north of the bridge, SR 231 intersects" - it's generally preferred to avoid opening sentences with numerals.
    • Fixed
  • "The Spokane River Bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places" - was any reason given for this?
    • Gave reason: along w/ rest of downriver bridges away from Spokane

Aside from those, I don't see any problems for a GA pass. I'll put the nomination on hold for a week and keep this page on my watchlist. GaryColemanFan (talk) 23:38, 4 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Some of your sentences in History have three citations; that is kind of ridiculous. --Rschen7754 (T C) 09:03, 8 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sorry to have missed these fixes. The article and the review are on my watchlist, so I don't know how that slipped by me. I'm still a little unsure about one point. Does SR 231 begin 0.79 miles north of the diamond interchange? If it does, that's fine. I just can't quite tell from the way it's written. If I could get some clarification on this, I will promote the article. The added information about the other bridges is helpful. If a reason for the bridges standing out enough to be added to the register could be found, that would also be great. GaryColemanFan (talk) 03:11, 9 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

The highway does start 0.79 miles north of the interchange and the bridges don't seem to have another reason for registering. – ĈĠ, Super Sounders Fan (help line|§|sign here) 22:45, 10 December 2009 (UTC)Reply
Sounds great. Thanks. I'll promote the article right away. GaryColemanFan (talk) 23:15, 10 December 2009 (UTC)Reply
