Lede edit

  • I would add last sentence in first paragraph up further. Example: "Entirely within Edgecombe County, it travels east from NC 42 near Bridgersville......"
  • Describe US 258 as "U.S. Route 258 (US 258)"
  • I'd say northeast of Bridgersville because that's how it looks on a topo map, but I may be wrong.
  • "until 1963 or 1964" would "until sometime between 1963 and 1964" sound better?
  • In infobox, I would put circa 1933 since it was between 1931 and 1933.

Route description edit

  • Once again with Bridgersville.
  • Also, will need a topo map reference for Bridgersville since Google doesn't show it.
  • "NC 124 begins by" Remove the word "begins".
  • "It intersects" change the "it"s to something else.
  • "At the intersection, NC 124 turns to the northeast. It continues for 3 miles (4.8 km) through a rural area to its eastern terminus at NC 42 and NC 43 near Cobbs Crossroads." I would remove "At the intersection" and combine two sentences.
  • "3 miles" change to "three miles"
  • Put references in order.
  • Add link to Annual average daily traffic.
  • For Google reference, make the map pop up as satellite map.

History edit

  • Put references in order.
  • "6 miles" change to "six miles" for all under 10.
  • Add current state map as a reference after last sentence.


  • @Ncchild: Here is round 1, let me know if you have questions. -420Traveler (talk) 13:13, 7 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
    @420Traveler I think I have completed everything. Let me know if you see anything else! Ncchild (talk) 19:32, 7 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
    @Ncchild: Looks good, just a couple things: "near Old Sparta" add what direction it is from it. And add that in the lede too;

"Travelled six miles" add in approximately or roughly. Then I'll pass it. -420Traveler (talk) 15:53, 8 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

@420Traveler: Both should be done! Thank you once again for reviewing! Ncchild (talk) 02:16, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
