GA review (see here for criteria)

---

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   • The sentence "Eventually, the abundance of farms fades into forests and the highway dives into and out of deep glacial ravines, the headwaters of the Pigeon River." sounds awkward.
   • "dives through a final ravine." also needs to be reworded.
   • "Drivers then proceed west", sounds awkward.
   • In the Development section, it jumps from describing dates in the 1800s to the 1900s and back to the 1800s. Is there a reason why this is done or is this perhaps an error?

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   • I do not think the Ontario Back Road Atlas can support the physical surroundings of the road. Try using satellite imagery for this.
   • The first paragraph of the Development subsection of the History needs references.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   Can some more historical information be added to the lead?

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. 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):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

I will place the article on hold to allow for fixes to be made. Dough4872 01:40, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

Did some fixes. Thanks for catching that 1900s issue in the development, those dates should have been all in the 1800s (and are fixed now). I still have to add more refs for the surroundings of the RD, so I will let you know once that is done. The first part of History is a quick introduction, and all the facts should be repeated/sourced in the following two sections. I tried to cram some extra history into the lead, so let me know what you think for that one. - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ ^τ _¢ 22:49, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

All set. - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ ^τ _¢ 04:21, 10 August 2011 (UTC)

I will now pass the article. Dough4872 04:24, 10 August 2011 (UTC)

Close paraphrasing

The Duplication Detector shows some similarities that may need to be addressed. Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:17, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

Mea culpa. Forgot that the duplication detector doesn't show quotation marks. Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:58, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
