 * GA review (see here for criteria)

 I will put the article on hold for some fixes to be made.  Dough 48  72  00:55, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * I would reword the first sentence of the lead to mention both termini of the route.
 * The first external link in the article is dead.
 * Done. --Rschen7754 01:04, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * The route could use some detail about the physical surroundings. Are the mountains along the route wooded or bare? Are the rural valleys agricultural, grassland, or desert? Are the developed areas residential or commercial?
 * Done. --Rschen7754 19:00, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
 * The RD could still use some details about the surroundings in the urban areas.  Dough 48  72  00:22, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * There are some points of interest that are worth mentioning in the route description such as the Harris Ranch Airport at the I-5 interchange, the Hanford Municipal Airport, Visalia Municipal Airport at the SR 99 interchange, College of the Sequoias at the SR 93 interchange, and Lake Kaweah near the eastern terminus.
 * Done. --Rschen7754 08:35, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
 * The history could use some more details about the construction of the freeway portions of SR 198. It says it was added to the freeway system in 1959, but does not say when the freeway sections were built and how long it took or cost.
 * Added details. I realize there is a bit of ambiguity between "freeway" and "expressway"... that is because the maps I have aren't 100% clear either, but this is the best I can do with what I have. --Rschen7754 06:13, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) 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):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * Should be good to go. --Rschen7754 19:00, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I will now pass the article.  Dough 48  72  01:28, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
