This review is part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force/Sweeps, a project devoted to re-reviewing Good Articles listed before August 26, 2007.

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:
    Examples include "The nature of the Adirondack Park becomes apparent once Lake George is past", "allowing a commercial-vehicle-accessible means of travel", and "US 9 has had as many as 16 suffixed routes" among others.
    B. MoS compliance:
    Introduction is too short, see WP:LEAD for more info.
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. References to sources:
    B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
    Numerous unsourced claims within the route description include "Conspicuous Spanish-language advertising testifies to the heavy Latin American immigrant population in the area" and "Villa Lewaro, the home of the first African-American millionaire".
    C. No original research:
    Unsourced statements may contain original research.
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:
    B. Focused:
    Route description could be trimmed, lots of detail here, some of these details might be unnecessary.
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
    B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    After careful consideration, I am de-listing this article. Normally I would offer a seven-day period to make improvements, but in this case I think an immediate de-listing is warranted. --ErgoSumtalktrib 18:20, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
