 * Images are a bit dark; not part of the GA criteria, but just noting.
 * Reflinks, disamb good. --Rschen7754 21:55, 6 August 2012 (UTC)


 * 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)


 * "large interchange"? To me, this seems subjective.
 * Removed.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * 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)


 * RD
 * "comes to" in two consecutive sentences.
 * Changed.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Ditto with "back" except now that's three sentences.
 * Removed two instances.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * "Here, DE 100 joind" ...
 * Fixed typo.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children - time to abbreviate or just say hospital.
 * Abbrieviated.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * What year does the AADT come from?
 * Mentioned.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * 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)


 * 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)


 * 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)


 * History second paragraph
 * $20 million... in today's dollars?
 * Added inflation template.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * History third paragraph
 * Environmental Assessment should not be capitalized.
 * Uncapitalized.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * an a new interchange with US 202 and DE 261 - and?
 * Fixed.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * 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)
 * But that doesn't indicate completion. --Rschen7754 01:16, 8 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Media
 * Please put in a request for a map.
 * Added requested.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Please add a KML.
 * KML added.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)


 * On hold for changes. --Rschen7754 20:44, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review, I have replied to the above comments.  Dough 48  72  23:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
