400-series highways

 * Nominator(s):  Floydian  τ ¢  05:33, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because it is the final hurdle in making a good/featured topic on the 400-series highways of Ontario, the result of over 7 years of research, photography and writing by myself and a few helpful peers.  Floydian  τ ¢  05:33, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm seeing a few ref errors - could this be fixed? --Rschen7754 07:11, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Done. -  Floydian  τ ¢  08:48, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Some quick comments: Mattximus (talk) 12:44, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Shouldn't there be a note for 407 that says it's a toll highway (under notes)?
 * 417 has a broken format box.
 * Could you explain further on what you mean with the latter point? -  Floydian  τ ¢  02:01, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * For some reason the last box in the 417 row is incomplete, lacking a right border... perhaps a small formatting error? Mattximus (talk) 15:56, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Ah. Firefox is good with tables, so it automatically resolves that error, which resulted from not having |notes=none. I've made the adjustment that should fix it for you on Chrome/IE (lol... IE). -  Floydian  τ ¢  02:07, 30 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Support - This list looks good and meets the FL criteria.  Dough   4872   20:48, 8 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Support – With Imzadi's explanation, I'm satisfied that the accessibility guidelines are met by the measures he highlighted. That was my last remaining concern about the list, so now you can consider my review complete. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:09, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Comments by Imzadi1979—I made a few minor tweaks to some of the citations to enhance formatting consistency. The sources look good in terms of quality and formatting,. Also of note: it's usually not necessary to cite the volume and issue numbers for newspapers, especially since they're normally not used to index issues in libraries, unlike the publication date. As I noted in the GAN review, by converting this over to a tabular list format, I'd support a future nomination here at FLC. I have two last comments before I formally support promotion: Otherwise, all looks good.  Imzadi 1979  →   10:18, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
 * AADT Traffic Volumes 1955–1969 and Traffic Collision Data 1967–1969 is listed in the bibliography section and cited in full in two footnotes (63, 64). You should convert those two footnotes to use either sfnp or harvp for consistency with the other entries in the bibliography.
 * Second, but the Emery source isn't cited anywhere, so if retained, that should be shifted to a "Further reading" section.
 * Fixed the first and removed the second (stray reference from earlier revision) -  Floydian  τ ¢  17:48, 8 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Support—everything fixed to my satisfaction.  Imzadi 1979  →   05:42, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

Did a source review, which passes. Promoting. -- Pres N  15:44, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
