All in all a good read! ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 04:22, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
 * 1) "it runs for 210 miles (338 km)" - why is mile spelled out but km isn't?
 * 2) "It forms part of the Niles Bypass, a four-lane expressway south of Niles and runs concurrently with Interstate 94 (I-94) around the south side of Ypsilanti." - does the Bypass run currently with 94? If so, say "south of Niles that runs". But if not, I'd switch mentioning the I-94 bit with the Niles Bypass bit. It helps with syntax.
 * 3) Why not mention in the first lead paragraph where the route terminates? You say it ends, why not say what road it ends at?
 * 4) "but it followed the Lake Michigan shoreline further north " - if it's distance, use "farther"
 * 5) "around the end of Dayton Lake" - I don't think you need to mention "the end"
 * 6) "US 12 turns northwesterly along the bypass east of downtown" - is this a typo that it goes to the NW? Most of the route description implies that it goes from west to east
 * 7) "At exit 181 on I-94, US 12 leaves Michigan Avenue to follow the freeway" - this could be clearer. Perhaps - "US 12 leaves Michigan Avenue to join I-94 at exit 181 on the latter interstate."?
 * 8) "East of this loop" - I don't see a loop mentioned here
 * 9) Was there really nothing major happening historically to the route after 1962? No upgrades, expansions to four lanes, future plans?

Numbering for replies: Thanks for the review,. Hopefully those changes are enough to pass the article.  Imzadi 1979  →   06:02, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
 * 1) That's the default in convert that has been that way for the entire time I've been using that template.
 * 2) I left the ordering alone (west to east), but clarified more that these are on opposite sides of the state.
 * 3) Added.
 * 4) Switched.
 * 5) Dropped.
 * 6) Yeah, that's a typo. I'm good at mixing my easts and wests up in writing for some reason.
 * 7) Changed.
 * 8) Changed, and working, I hope.
 * 9) Oddly enough, no. Nothing's been changed in an appreciable manner other than the terminus changes in Detroit and the memorial/byway names. Anything the state has done has been too minor to note.
