  • Support, has lots of information on the route history, including current and future developments. Shows the history of the route, including when the number was used prior to modern PA 39. The article is an A-class, good article. --Son 19:59, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

• New Jersey Route 33 — a state route GA

The result of the poll was support I-15 in AZ. --TMF ^{Let's Go Mets - Stats} 08:22, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

• Article I am recommending is U.S. Route 209 in Pennsylvania.Rock sold B-class article. Will go for GA as soon as History is completed.Mitch^contribs 22:29, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Look at the size of that lead... --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 22:51, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose per Rschen. Also, the "Attractions" section is better suited for a travel guide than an encyclopedic article. They can be given mention in the route description, but unless the attraction is unquestionably notable, this is also a spotty practice. The history is a bit weak, as indicated in the nom, and the images shouldn't be all aligned right; rather, staggered, alternating from left to right. Finally, why is the communities box hide/show? The point of the box is to be seen. If size is that much of an issue, remove some smaller locations or reduce the font size in the box as done on NY 52. --TMF ^{Let's Go Mets - Stats} 04:05, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

• Interstate 15 in Arizona - Recent GA, quality article for a short stretch of road. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 22:51, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Support A small stretch that has a lot to talk about - good! - master son^{T - C} 22:53, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Support with few reservations. Has just about everything that can be said about that segment of I-15. Well referenced and well written. However, it has a bit too many images and some should be moved to a category on the commons, which can then be linked to from the infobox. --TMF ^{Let's Go Mets - Stats} 04:05, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Support per everyone. -- JA10 Talk • Contribs 19:02, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
