GA review

Latest comment: 16 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
Prose is good, but it could use some polishing. Also, you should add non-breaking spaces.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Entire route description is unsourced.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
Lead needs to be expanded, as it is currently very stubby.
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Images aren't required for GA, but it'd be really nice to have one.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

Overall, this is a good article, but there are some issues to be resolved. Until then, I've placed the article on-hold. Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 15:42, 15 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Much better. Now passes the criteria. Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 18:26, 15 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Was it still a plank road after the Skaneateles Railroad Company took it over? It sounds as if it was but it's not explicitly clear
Track down when highway was taken over by state
- Probably whenever the Skaneateles Railroad Company went under
  - references to said company existed as late as 1904 - was this a court decision that the company lost and eventually faulted from?
  - another reference to it from 1915 - based on dates below the company must have gone under before the case was resolved
- November 1906 - contract was let for work on SH 487 (Valley Dr between Elbridge and Jordan village lines)
- 1908 - Valley Dr was included as easternmost part of legislative Route 20 (Elbridge-Rochester)
  - Valley Dr was SH 5630 in Jordan (to Clinton St) and SH 5080 in Elbridge - the SH 5*** designations confirm the LR 20 status
  - SH 5630's contract was let in May 1919 and SH 5080's contract was let in March 1911 - so it appears the SH 487 portion is/was the oldest part of Valley Dr
