Longest laterally-unsupported span in the world?[edit]

The article currently claims that the bridge has "the longest laterally-unsupported span in the world". I cannot find any sources for this, however I cannot confirm that this is untrue. If anyone can find a reliable source for this bit of information, feel free to readd it. Arsenikk ^(talk) 21:31, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Checking against GA criteria[edit]

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
I made a number of minor copy-edits.[1]

Complies sufficiently with the MoS, prose is reasonably good.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Well referenced, assume good faith for off-line and Norwegian language sources. Those that I did access supported the cited statements.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
Thorough, with unnecessary detail.
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
NPOV
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
Stable
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Suitably licensed and captioned, I love the picture of the bridge in fog.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
An interesting article, I had not realised pontoon bridges of such size had been constructed. I am happy to list as GA. Congratulations! Jezhotwells (talk) 18:41, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
