Ontario Highway 8 edit

Nominator(s): Floydian ^τ _¢ 01:40, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have spent the better part of three dedicated months (and years of prior research) towards this article. Following a rather extraordinarily-detailed copyedit via a recent GAN (See also this secondary accompanying GAN), I feel this is ready to be composted (I mean this in a good sense) through the detailed examination of the FAC crew!

Highway 8 is one of the original routes created when Ontario established its highway system, and it connected Niagara Falls to Lake Huron. Before that it had a long history, from the American Revolution through to the settlement of Southwestern Ontario in the early 1800s. I feel this article is one of the best representations of Ontario highways on Wikipedia, and wish to mark it as such. - Floydian ^τ _¢ 01:40, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pass as all items have been addressed. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 17:37, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Normally silence is a good thing, but I know that's not the case here. Just wanted it to be known that I'm actively watching for any comments. - Floydian ^τ _¢ 03:51, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Coordinator comment I'm sorry, but at about three weeks in with no significant movement towards a consensus to promote, this one is at risk of being archived soon if a consensus to promote does not start forming. Hog Farm _Talk 04:25, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Can we give it at least another week or two? Maybe it'll get some comments as it falls into the "Older nominations", because otherwise I'm simply going to renominate it due to the lack of any opposition. I'm not sure why there needs to be a deadline. - Floydian ^τ _¢ 04:55, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am afraid that this nomination has timed out. The usual two-week hiatus will apply.

I see my request was summarily dismissed. This will be renominated immediately upon the "TwO WeEk hIaTuS". Fix your broken system. Also, according to the misty instructions, the two week hiatus can apply upon nomination, in which case this hs already surpassed two weeks - Floydian ^τ _¢ 14:48, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
