 * GA review (see here for criteria)

 I will put the article on hold for some fixes to be made.  Dough 48  72  00:19, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * "The streets of Elkader are influenced by the Turkey River, which flows from the northwest to southeast.", perhaps elaborate on this.
 * Elaborating would have caused me to basically write the same sentence twice, so I reworded that and the sentence before it.
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * I would suggest removing the sentence "However, Primary Road No. 56's length past Elkader was not to last." as it does not flow well with the history.
 * I reworded it instead.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * I dont think the IADOT map can reference "Being a largely rural route, it passes through the rolling farmland of Fayette and Clayton counties.". Try using Google Maps here.
 * But it can reference it going through the two counties and it being a largely rural route. Iowa's kind of known for its farmland, I really don't think that needs to be cited.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * Can some more descriptive information about the route be added to the lead, such as about its physical surroundings? The lead looks a little short for a 24-mile road.
 * How's that look?
 * 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:
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * I will now pass the article.  Dough 48  72  01:24, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
