 Fixed -420Traveler (talk) 04:45, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

• Consolidate the two NHS sentences; does the definition need to be in every page if the term is wikilinked?

I agree, so I changed it a little, let me know if not ok -420Traveler (talk) 04:45, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

History

• K-170 was commissioned as K-70 by 1930, to a highway — unclear what "to" indicates as a preposition here

not sure what to change it to? -420Traveler (talk) 04:54, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

• three state should be hyphenated, maybe with a comma after

 Fixed -420Traveler (talk) 04:45, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

• Comma after December 12, 1945 and October 23, 1946 (MOS:DATECOMMA). You can avoid excessive commas by switching "December 12, 1945, resolution," to "resolution on December 12, 1945,".

 Fixed -420Traveler (talk) 04:45, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

• Merge the last two sentences

Should be fixed now. -420Traveler (talk) 04:45, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

Other notes

• Use IABot to archive sources.

I'm not sure how to use the bot. -420Traveler (talk) 04:59, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

• Mixed date format in citations. The User:Ohconfucius/script/MOSNUM dates.js date format script will fix this and also catch the GEOCOMMA errors. Consider using it regularly!

• No images.

I checked flickr and there aren't any. Next month I will be travelling through the are and will take and add pictures. -420Traveler (talk) 04:59, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

@420Traveler: On hold. Not that much to change. Some of these are things you should consider for all your pages. Not going to go after the "US-XX" format for Kansas since that's a project standards issue as identified earlier. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 04:12, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

@Sammi Brie: Most issues are fixed, just had a couple questions. -420Traveler (talk) 04:59, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

420Traveler, the link to the bot is [1] — check the checkbox. You'll need to authenticate with your Wikipedia account. You can also do a list (say, all Kansas highways) at [2]. I made the other fix; let me know if that works. No images is fine, I was just noting it. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 05:12, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

Sammi Brie, It looks good. Also thanks, I figured out how to use the bot. -420Traveler (talk) 05:31, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

It's ready, 420Traveler. Consider going through all your GAs and GANs and archiving the sources. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 16:02, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
