comments You've done everything right, i.e. sources look good, prose is grammatically correct. In order for the prose to be considered "brilliant and engaging" for a .25 mile route, you're going to have to focus more on the details that an article on, say, a 200 mile route would. Suggestions to expand:

  • Currently the article only casually mentions this is an access for Hill Air Force Base, maybe spend more detail on this, why is Hill so notable to require direct access for I-15? Maybe include how many people are stationed there? notable uses for the base?
  • Similarly, currently the fact that SR-126 is a old routing of U.S. Route 91 is only casually mentioned. Under normal circumstances I would say that's all you should do and save the historical significance of US-91 for the SR-126 article. However, given how short this article is and the lack of other options to expand, maybe work in a little of the historical significance of US-91? There are now movements to "resurrect" some of the old U.S. routes in the west, and while US-91 is not getting the attention that US-66, US-99, US-40 or even US-6, but I'm sure there is a US-91 fanboy club out there somewhere. =-)

I have addressed these concerns in a reworked history section. --Admrboltz (talk) 21:26, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, though a picture of the route might be nice to have, if possible. - Algorerhythms (talk) 21:41, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - Nicely done, but yes a photo would be nice. ~~ ĈĠ ☺ Simple? 22:09, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support at the moment. I did a minor copy edit to clear up a few sentences and things. Overall, the article looks good to me. I didn't see anything in reach of the MOS, so anything now would be prose issues, and photographic requests. Imzadi1979 (talk) 22:38, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments - first sentence a bit hard to understand.
    • 1 - first sentence - seems a bit odd with the mixing of terms.
    • second sentence - comma goes after interchange
    • north east= one word?
    • 2 - capitalization of Interstate highway seems a bit odd.
    • Other than that. good work! --Rschen7754 (T C) 19:48, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • Lead reworked, northeast changed, and removed capital I from interstate highway. --Admrboltz (talk) 21:10, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support concerns addressed. --Rschen7754 (T C) 02:33, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
