 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * "NY 64 has an overlap with U.S. Route 20 (US 20) and NY 5 and passes through the village of Bloomfield." can this be clarified to indicate US 20 and NY 5 are concurrent and also reduce the close consecutive uses of "and"? Try "U.S. Route 20 (US 20)/NY 5". "NY 64 curves to the northwest as it exits East Bloomfield and enters its directional counterpart, West Bloomfield." does not need the statement about the directional counterpart as it sounds awkward. Try not to use NY 64 in every sentence of the route description. "Ca. 1939, the portion of NY 64 between Vincent and South Bloomfield became part of US 20A, which overlapped NY 64 for just under 4 miles (6 km) in order to connect to US 20.", is there a better way to begin the sentence than with circa?
 * I made only a slight tweak since I think the existing phrasing is fine. As for the rest of your point... 1) it seems pretty clear to me from the existing wording that 20/5 are concurrent while NY 64 overlaps them, and 2) using slash constructions in prose looks tacky. –  T M F 00:12, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Revised slightly. –  T M F 00:12, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Some uses eliminated. If any more were removed, I believe that some sentences would become vague or unclear. –  T M F 00:12, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
 * There's nothing wrong with beginning a sentence with circa. –  T M F 00:12, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

I will place the article on hold for a few prose fixes.  Dough 48  72  23:47, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
