Nominator's comments: This is the second time that this article has appeared here. The first time, it stalled because the main contributor disappeared. Since that seems to be the case again, I will be bold and renominate. –Fredddie ™ 03:38, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done --Rs chen 7754 04:53, 3 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I guess what's kept me from reviewing this is I'm not sure that the issues from the last review were resolved - Fredddie, would you mind taking a look? --Rs chen 7754 02:51, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I wanted to pretend that the first one never happened. So, review away. –Fredddie ™ 03:08, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Back during the first review after the nominator vanished, I considered fixing all the issues myself and supporting. However, there is a serious factual error: the first "existed" date is wrong. When I looked at the MoDOT maps back to 1967, I-470 was still there. --Rs chen 7754 03:35, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I guess to clarify my position, I do want to do a full review, but I am worried that if there is such a significant factual error in the article, that there may be more and the article may need to be significantly revised - I'd prefer that this was resolved first. --Rs chen 7754 05:16, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't that what reviews are for? T C N7JM 05:20, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I just don't like reviewing moving targets. --Rs chen 7754 05:23, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't exactly have access to Kansas City Star or MoDOT archives, otherwise I'd have an answer by now. What I have from newspapers.com isn't exactly clear. –Fredddie ™ 06:09, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This was four years ago, but what I think I did was click on the link to the 1970 map, and change the URL to say 1967, and that's how I saw the older maps. --Rs chen 7754 06:21, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Review by TCN7JM

I was going to say I always like taking a look at articles for roads I've driven on, but then I realized I haven't actually been on this one. Oh well. I guess I'll make my excuse that I have somewhat close relatives in Kansas City.

I'd like to review this, but the issue is whether or not I'll find the time. If somebody wants to review I-470 before I get the chance, go right ahead and jump me. T C N7JM 03:52, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to note that I have not reviewed this article yet because the nominator expressed to me on IRC that he would prefer I wait until he gets a couple of facts on the article checked. Once I get the green light, I'll go ahead and get started. T C N7JM 06:31, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This will need a source review to pass ACR, along with a spotcheck and 3 full reviews (last ACR closed 27 December 2013, and nominator only has 2 FAs unfortunately, just missing the cutoff). --Rs chen 7754 04:21, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
