I would love to review this article. –TCN7JM 22:18, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Lead

• "rural land between Ellsworth, Kansas and Salina, Kansas." You mentioned in the previous sentence that the highway was in Kansas, so adding the state after either city is redundant.
  •  Fixed. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 23:28, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Route description

• There are three instances in the first paragraph in which the citations are not in numeric order.
  •  Fixed. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 23:28, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
• "Just after passing through Carneiro K-140..." This would read better with a comma.
  •  Won't fix I would say yes if it were like that, but when you take the sentence as a whole it sounds worse with the comma to my ears. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 00:08, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
• "After traveling 1.001 miles (1.611 km) through the city of Brookville..." This seems too precise. Saying it's approximately one mile using {{convert/spell}} will suffice.
  •  Fixed. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 23:28, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
• Refs. 1 and 2 seem to be a bit over-cited. You do not need a Google Maps citation after every sentence. One at the end of the paragraph is fine.
  •  Won't fix I cite after each sentence in which a source is used because I do not use the sources universally throughout paragraphs. I use ref 1 for some sentences, ref 2 for some sentences, and both for some sentences. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 23:28, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
• "Rural farmland" is redundant.
  •  Fixed. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 23:28, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
• First sentence in the final paragraph seems like a WP:OVERLINK violation. I don't think either pavement or concrete needs to be linked.
  •  Fixed. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 23:28, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
• The preciseness in the traffic info...just...seems way too technical. Is it necessary for you to have high/lows for every single piece of the highway with measurements down to the hundredth of a mile? It seems like overkill.
  •  Kinda fixed. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 23:36, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

History

• More numerical order errors...
  •  Fixed. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 23:46, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
• "was established in the 1926..." And we live in the 2013. :p
  •  Fixed. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 23:46, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
• There's nothing concerning pavement. This road was first designated in 1926, so there probably wasn't yet a standard for paving U.S. Routes.
  •  Fixed. I added what I could...if there's any more history that could be added it's buried deep in microfilm archives of The Salina Journal. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 00:07, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
• Again, you should probably throw Ref. 6 out the window. It's likely a SPS.
  •  Done, let me know if the new one is acceptable instead. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 00:07, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
    • Looks good to me. –TCN7JM 00:20, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Major intersections

• No outstanding errors.

References

• No problems with dead links, verifiability, or plagiarism, now that the SPS is gone. –TCN7JM 00:20, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Final verdict

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

   Inappropriate due to lack to images

7. Overall: My concerns have been addressed. I feel this meets the Good Article criteria.

   Pass/Fail:
