GA Review[edit]

This review is transcluded from Talk:County Route 72 (Rockland County, New York)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
- Establish context by mentioning the country (i.e. United States).
- There are a lot of place names not wikilinked: Orange County, Sloatsburg etc.
- I presume NY 17 is New York State Route 17? Always type out the first occurrence of abbreviations.
- The history section seems a bit unfocused. The first paragraph seems to be about Sloatsburg, not the county route. Also, what sort of numbering or ownership scheme was in place before 1982? Or am I misundersanding the text, and it was numbered 1 prior to 1982? When did the road come into existence, when was it upgraded from a track to a road, when was it first asphalted/made two lanes etc? There is no mention of the infrastructure, just the numbering in the history.

If those existed I would tell you -Mitch32^{(Go Syracuse)} 23:13, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
