GA Review

[edit]
This review is transcluded from Talk:Washington State Route 538/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Comments:

  1. In the lead, is it really important to have a sentence indicating Mount Vernon is the county seat of Skagit County?
  2. In sentence "The highway, which has existed as a county road since 1911, travels from Interstate 5 (I-5) in the west, passing former U.S. Route 99 (US 99), now Riverside Drive and Skagit Valley College's main Mount Vernon campus before terminating at a roundabout with SR 9.", add comma after "Riverside Drive".
  3. From what I see, SR 538 was originally SSH 1G, not SSH 3G. This needs to be fixed in the lead.
  4. "the Mount Vernon campus of the Skagit Valley College is passed on the north side of the highway" sounds awkward.
  5. "The I-5 freeway wasn't built until after 1966": do not use contractions.
  6. "spring 2009": do not use seasons as it is assumes readers are from northern hemisphere.
  7. Citation needed for mileage in Major intersections table.

I am placing the article on hold. Dough4872 (talk) 15:42, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
