 * GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * I tweaked one sentence that was quite awkward and did not quite match the article tonally, on traffic counts. Also, WP:USRD/STDS suggests that links for US highways that are piped be in the form "US 55", not "US-55" (i.e. no hyphen), which I've changed.
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):  d (copyvio and plagiarism):
 * Mentioned this on your user talk, but please clip newspaper citations when you can and use cite news. I would have required you to do it if I had not done it already. Earwig tool brings up very little close paraphrasing aside from a low-quality content farm page, copying the article, that can be tossed.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * Editor is substantially the only contributor since August.
 * 1) It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * You are right that most states there is no hyphen. But in Kansas, the road articles use them as shown in the infobox. 420Traveler (talk) 05:22, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Is there a particular reason for this? I would not have known myself, it's not mentioned in the relevant standard, and it's not current KDOT practice, though I do now see it on other Kansas pages. Perhaps this is worth mentioning to the WikiProject to figure out if this should be continued. Raymie (t • c) 07:18, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Im not exactly sure of the reasoning, just that it was KDOT practice. That would be a good idea to mention it there, so we can get input from others.420Traveler (talk) 13:57, 8 October 2020 (UTC) All it says on Naming conventions (U.S. state and territory highways) in the notes is that "Hyphenation varies by state at this time" but it doesnt say what states. 420Traveler (talk) 14:13, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
