Comments

[edit]
  • Length of the article seems short and start class
  • All highway articles get three major sections: A description of the route, a retelling of the history, and a list of major intersections. This article may be short in length, but it comprehensively covers its subject with all the information that is available about it. Have a look at some of the other two-digit Ontario highway GAs for comparisons. - Floydian τ ¢ 16:47, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I understand, I'm cool with that. As an experience editor like you I ensure you understand Good Articles and all, so I'll gt on this review tonight. --///EuroCarGT 20:25, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Infobox is properly cited with reliable sources
  • Lead is good, may need some re-writing as some parts were hard to understand such as: as it arcs between Highway 69 and Highway 17, and provides a shortcut between the latter and Highway 11 northwest of North Bay - After North Bay, theirs no period.
  • Route description is good, gallery of 2 photos are good
  • History section is good
  • Major intersections is great and descriptive with the distances listed
  • References are good, all are in citing templates and no bare URLs
  • External links are useful + KML is useful

Their maybe rewording need in the route description and history section, it is good at it's current point but improvements could be used. --///EuroCarGT 02:11, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've puffed up the RD a little and made the fix to the lede, but I can't do much with the history. Let me know how it looks now. - Floydian τ ¢ 21:39, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Great! I'm in the process of filling up the checklist and setting the result. The changes are great, especially with the new updated source. ///EuroCarGT 01:15, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
