Pennsylvania Route 73 edit

I have reworked this article, added references, wrote history, and now I want some feedback to see if I could take this article to next level - WP:GA and WP:FA, Thank you. —JA10 TalkContribs 05:03, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

After reading the article I was left with 2 questions. 1- What does the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge look like? It is mentioned several places in the article. If a freely licensed photo can be found, it would add to the article. 2-What is the significance of "Maintained by PennDOT" at the top of the route box? I've seen this on other articles, but I still don't get it. For the states I'm familiar with, all signed state routes are maintained by the state DOT.Davemeistermoab (talk) 10:29, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the comments. I will try to find a picture of the bridge, although I don't know where to put it in the article, its kinda full. I'll see if I can explain in the lead why the article is maintained by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation "PennDOT". —JA10 TalkContribs 17:14, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The article on the bridge itself is short, and could easily accommodate a picture. Granted, that is a different article from what you asked to be reviewed. IMO a picture would add to the article, even if linked rather than directly on the article itself. =-) Davemeistermoab (talk) 22:55, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • The map in the infobox is odd - it does not identify anything on it (I assume Route 73 is the red line). I am familiar with Pennsylvania geography, so I could figure out some things, but not much. Anyone not knowing about Pennsylvania would be leftclueless by the map. So the article / infobox needs a clear map (either put labels on this one, or get a new one). Also, why all the white space where New Jersey is in the map? If you are not going to show any detail there, just crop it - as it is the map looks off center (with all that white space on the right side). Hope this helps, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 17:17, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Yup, the map isn't great and I knew that I would pose problems for the article. I've been trying to get a new one via WP:USRD/MTFR. But I don't know what's going on they should have finished the new map by now.—JA10 TalkContribs 21:25, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Cropping as it stands right now will not work since the infobox has a predetermined map size ratio. I'm working on improving this map this week. 哦, 是吗?(User:O) 04:06, 26 November 2007 (GMT)
