Images are a bit dark; not part of the GA criteria, but just noting.
Reflinks, disamb good. --Rs chen 7754 21:55, 6 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

"The route" begins two consecutive sentences, paragraph 1. Before you nominate a GAN, please at least skim over the prose and fix simple stuff like this.

Fixed. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"large interchange"? To me, this seems subjective.

Removed. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In the 1990s, several improvements were planned for DE 141 north of Prices Corner. Among the improvements made were a grade separation at Rockland Road completed in 1997 and relocation of the northern terminus to its current location at an interchange completed in 2007. - eliminate the redundancy.

Reworded. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

RD

"comes to" in two consecutive sentences.

Changed. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ditto with "back" except now that's three sentences.

Removed two instances. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Here, DE 100 joind" ...

Fixed typo. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children - time to abbreviate or just say hospital.

Abbrieviated. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What year does the AADT come from?

Mentioned. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

History first paragraph

Sentence 1 - I am definitely not seeing the line along the entirety of today's DE 141, so you need to clarify. In fact, I am having difficulty identifying today's routing at all.

Clarified as to what would become DE 141 was a county road, as the road has undergone changes since initial creation. The map is not of the best quality, but I was able to make out the roads. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sentence 3 - and past Newport too, if I'm reading this right.

Changed as map does not label DE 41 as Newport Gap Pike. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please add bounding citations for the first paragraph if they're available. For example, 1957-1971 is a long timespan...

Added bounding citations. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

History second paragraph

$20 million... in today's dollars?

Added inflation template. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

History third paragraph

Environmental Assessment should not be capitalized.

Uncapitalized. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

an a new interchange with US 202 and DE 261 - and?

Fixed. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Between 2007 and 2010 - you don't have a source to back up the 2010 part. You have a source that says that it was planned to be completed in 2010, but we all know construction falls behind schedule.

Added additional reference from 2010. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

But that doesn't indicate completion. --Rs chen 7754 01:16, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Media

Please put in a request for a map.

Added requested. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please add a KML.

KML added. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

On hold for changes. --Rs chen 7754 20:44, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review, I have replied to the above comments. Dough 48 72 23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
