Really, really sloppy sourcing in this article
editAs far as I can tell, the silly puff piece line about "It has been compared to the Amalfi Coast of Italy, the rugged scenic north coast of Taiwan, and roadways in the Andes" is not supported at all by the cited and linked source. If I'm missing something, let me know, but I think that line has to go. --Coolcaesar (talk) 21:01, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
- I'm eliminating that line immediately. It looks like the article has been extensively vandalized and needs permanent semi-protection. --Coolcaesar (talk) 19:19, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
Organization
editThis article is not organized very well. There's three sections on history: "History", "Construction", and "Recent history" (which is oddly enough separated from the other two). Nothing that describes the route itself. Parts of it come close to violating NPOV and read like a tourist ad. Coordinates of water fountains, which is more appropriate for Wikivoyage. Some sentences are cited with 6 (!) sources, which is a red flag that it may be violating WP:SYNTH. --Rschen7754 17:55, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
