I am doing one last peer review before sending this article off to FAC. Any improvements or comments? ~~ This page was edited by ĈĠ 21:48, 26 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ruhrfisch comments: Looks better since I last reviewed it, but it seems nowhere near FAC ready to me. Very briefly, here are some suggestions for improvement with an eye to FAC.

  • I agree with the tag at the top that it desperately needs a copyedit, as one example 172nd Street NE once extended from current SR 9 to the banks of the South Fork Stillaguamish River, which has since been removed.[5] what has been removed? the river? 172nd STreet NE? SR9?
  • Comprehensiveness is an FA criterion, but a History section that starts The whole route of the highway from Wenberg State Park to current SR 9 has been known to exist earlier than 1911.[5] What happened before this? When did settlers arrive there? How can a gap from 1911 to 1991 be comprehensive?
  • The map caption says "A 1911 map showing what is now SR 531 from Wenberg State Park to Edgecomb." but the park is not on the map shown, and the name Edgecomb is cut off.
  • What about usage statistics?
  • A model article is useful for ideas and examples to follow - there are several state route FAs at Wikipedia:Featured_articles#Transport that may be useful models, such as New York State Route 22 or New York State Route 22
  • Any chance for more refs that are not maps or atlases?

Hope this helps. If my comments are useful, please consider peer reviewing an article, especially one at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog (which is how I found this article). Yours, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 05:57, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
