Thanks for the graphs! Unfortunately the first graph just shows how much growth has stagnated since about August (and yeah, I'm one of those guilty parties who has found myself less and less enchanted with creating road articles on Wikipedia). Interesting to see how this will turn out, only time will tell eh? CL — 05:49, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

We have ACR???

Please head over to WP:USRD/ACR and help us review for A-Class assessment! This process gives users feedback before they take USRD articles to FAC. However, people haven't been reviewing articles, and this is slowing down the pace at which we send articles to FAC. So please help us! --Rschen7754 (T C) 06:37, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Leaderboard for 18 November

Finally, there's a change in leaderboard positions, Michigan switched positions with Utah; however, all states with the exceptions of Michigan and New York have not moved. Michigan has lost ninety-seven thousanths of a point; New York has also lost twenty-five thousanths of a point. Now, here's the condensed leaderboard (if you want the full version of the board just head on over to WP:USRD/A/S):

State	Ω
Michigan	3.668
Utah	3.724
New York	3.990
Arizona	4.240
Connecticut	4.364
