GA Review

edit
This review is transcluded from Talk:New York State Route 322/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Hi there, I'll review this article for you. A few things I noticed:

  • Well written - fail
  • Grammar - "located within Cattaraugus and Chautauqua Counties in New York, United States", consider "located within the counties of... in the state of New York, in the United States"
  • Wikilinks - "South Dayton represents the only municipality served by NY 322." - what is a municipality?
  • Grammar - "The route then goes eastward, through fields and residential homes.", does it 'go' anywhere? The word 'go' implies that the route actually moves around. Also, I presume the road doesn't pass through people's homes, it probably passes through residential areas?" There are similar problems throughout the article, try describing it not as an entity which does things, but as a route for people to follow as though they were reading from a map.
  • Clarify - "The region around Route 322 is very rural again" - when was it rural before? This is unclear.
  • Grammar - "changing names to Dexters Corners Road" - this sounds like the road has several names. Perhaps it does, but it needs clarifying. Consider using 'where it becomes Dexter's Corner's Road' instead of "changing names"
  • Grammar - "However, the Cattaraugus County portion" - consider "the section of the road through Cattaraugus County"
  • Major Intersections - there is a blank space in the 'notes' column of this table, please rectify by filling them, or removing that column.
All of these are done.Mitch32(UP) 20:22, 21 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • Factually accurate - pass
  • Broad in its coverage - fail - I don't feel there is enough background information on the reason for construction or the level and types of traffic using the route. Information on the width of the carriageway and the number of lanes, also the speed limits.
Will get to as soon as possible.Mitch32(UP) 20:22, 21 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • Neutral - pass
  • Stable - pass
  • Illustrated - pass - is it possible to move the single image inside the infobox? This would make the layout clearer.
Not possible, the infobox paramaters only allow for the map. If the map didn't exist, I would say yes.Mitch32(UP) 20:22, 21 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

I'm happy to put this on hold as I feel the issues are easily correctable. Parrot of Doom (talk) 16:04, 21 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

It looks much better now. I've made a few minor edits to the article which I hope will help. If you're happy with those edits, and if you could address the {{clarify}} and citation request tags, I'd be happy to pass it as a GA. Parrot of Doom (talk) 19:25, 22 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
