 * GA review (see here for criteria)

The article links to 2 disamb. pages: Home Township, Michigan and Lodi, Michigan. - NOT DONE This is a nice piece of work, but I am placing it on hold so that you can address a few concerns. I have placed the article on hold. Racepacket (talk) 19:30, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * "that connects with State Road 9 (SR 9)" change to "that connects with Indiana State Road 9 (SR 9)" - NOT DONE
 * "parallel to the Nottawa Creek" - delete "the"
 * " It is at the transition to freeway that M-66 picks up the I-194 designation." change to "It is at the transiton to freeway that M-66 starts its concurrency with I-194." - NOT DONE
 * "the locals still use the former nickname, "The Penetrator"" - if locals still use the nickname, why is it "former"?
 * "has the highest traffic levels as measured" with respect to what? The highest in the state? The highest along the length of M-66?
 * "north of the US 131 split had the lowest AADT levels in the 2009 survey." with respect to what? The length of M-66?
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * I could not access the link in footnote 1. Is it dead, or does it work for you?
 * 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.:
 * 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:

 * All suggested items have been fixed. The Penetrator name was the semi-official designation used during planning for all of the three-digit Interstates in MIchigan. Unlike the rest, the usage for I-194 entered the local vernacular and it has stuck even though I-194 has an official name now. I've added a footnote to clarify that, with a reference that talked about an original set of plans that would have had I-275 routed through Detroit as that city's Penetrator and I-75 following what is now I-275 (built and unbuilt).

 * Please note items marked NOT DONE above. Thanks, Racepacket (talk) 00:16, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, I missed those two dab links (not part of the GA criteria, btw) because the were listed above the checklist. Now, I switched that one sentence, but the other I won't change as you suggested. I put "Indiana" in front of "state line" not in front of "State Road 9". The context should be clear even without it in that sentence. The subheading for that section is "Indiana to Ionia", and Michigan doesn't call their highways "State Roads".  Imzadi  1979   →  00:27, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
