Comment moved from article[edit]

Regarding NY 132A from Engleman (talk · contribs): "note to any locals: check if there are reference markers next time you're in the neighborhood".

I agree, if anyone from Yorktown can check Mohansic Avenue (east of the Taconic) and/or Baldwin Road (east of its junction with Mohansic) for reference markers, that'd be great. The route existed into the 1970s, so it did have reference markers at some point (as they were first installed statewide in the late 1960s). Whether or not any remain to this day is unknown, but it is possible. – T M F 04:47, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewer: Nbound (talk · contribs) 13:46, 2 July 2013 (UTC) Hi Mitch, I will take this GA review[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): (Revised)
Minor wording issues - see below

b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
Appears to meet usual standards
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references):
Wide range of well presented references

b (citations to reliable sources):
All sources appear to be reliable

c (OR):
No OR
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
All major aspects covered, prose focused on topic
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
Information presented with a neutral POV
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
Article very stable/no disputes
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):
All images are PD or CC licensed

b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Captions are fine
Overall:
Pass/Fail: Pass (Revised)

Minor issues:

The route acts as a connector between U.S. Route 202 (US 202) and NY 35 in the south and US 6 in the hamlet of Shrub Oak in the north. - Would be best to explicitly mention US202 and NY35 are concurrent/duplexed/etc.
The majority of NY 132 is named Old Yorktown Road; near the northern end, NY 132 is routed on Barger and East Main streets. - Would be better if sections could be separated by means other than a semi-colon, or if the northern bit included something like "though at the northern end... ".
...the locally maintained Downing Park and the state-maintained Franklin D. Roosevelt State Park northwest of Yorktown Heights. - Not sure if we need to explicitly say who maintains the parks, as it is mentioned in the name of the latter, and can likely be inferred by the lack of "state park" or "national park" descriptor in the former. (Upto your own personal judgement - Ill still pass even if this one is left as-is)
paralleling the Taconic State Parkway as it runs through a series of residential neighborhoods and serves Lakeland Copper Beech Middle School. - Sounds like the Parkway is serving the school instead of NY132

This is my first GA review, so I'd appreciate any feedback if I've made any errors. -- Nbound (talk) 13:46, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I just rewrote the RD rather than change anything. Mitch32^{(Wikipedia's worst Reform Luddite.)} 15:30, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Got the others. Mitch32^{(Wikipedia's worst Reform Luddite.)} 17:05, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Reads a bit better now, passing :) -- Nbound (talk) 22:26, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Current portion not state maintained until about 1936?[edit]

I think the 1926 map is in error about the current alignment. It is not shown as state maintained on the 1932 official, and a 1936 law added it to the authorized system: "Crompound road from station two hundred and forty-four plus or minus on state highway one thousand three hundred nine [US 6] to station two hundred and sixty-three plus or minus on state highway three hundred thirty-two [US 202]" (previous law that didn't include it). 1935 minutes of the Westchester County Board of Supervisors confirm this. --NE2 22:24, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
