Interstate 476
review
 * Suggestion: No suggestion given regarding A-Class
 * Nominator's comments: This article was promoted to A-Class before the ACR process began; it should be reevaluated to ensure that it truly does meet A-Class status.

 * Comments —
 * The mileposts in the junction table should be updated. This is a case of false precision if these numbers are coming from a paper atlas that doesn't list them to the hundredth of a mile.

 * User:JohnnyAlbert10 used a computer program when he put that in - I think I have an updated source of that form somewhere. Mitchazenia : Chat   Trained for the pen 22:00, 7 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Do all of the bolded names have redirects in place? If not, the bolded needs to be removed.
 * I would question referencing throughout the lead, since that information should be contained lower in the article with a reference.
 * I haven't read the prose; I've only skimmed the article this morning briefly. Imzadi1979 (talk) 14:30, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comments - I have some concerns before I will support keeping the article at A-class
 * 1) In the infobox, I-78 should not be mentioned as a junction as it does not directly interchange with I-476
 * 2) In the infobox, US 6 and US 11 should be abbreviated for consistiency
 * 3) References need to be removed from the lead
 * 4) More information should be added to the lead
 * 5) The subheadings under Route description and History are inconsistient, it is "Blue Route" for Route description but "Mid-County Expressway" for history
 * 6) The route description could use some more detailed information such as what landscapes the road passes through
 * 7) I do not understand how "ubiquitous nickname" can apply to the Blue Route
 * 8) References should be at the end of the sentence and not in the middle
 * 9) Sentence should not begin with numeral "8". It should be spelled out
 * 10) There are additional citations that are needed in the route description
 * 11) The sentence "Rocks can be seen straight ahead just before the road curves right (narrowing down to 1 line in that direction) into that hairpin curve, and they mark the path of the never-built continuation of the Northeast Extension (use I-81 to continue north toward New York State)." is unsourced and sounds like original research
 * 12) Dates should not be linked
 * 13) "I-476/The Blue Route" reads awkward
 * 14) Some of the information in the history section may need to be updated
 * 15) Parts of the exit list many need to be fix to meet ELG standards, such as the junctions with unnumbered roads
 * 16) References need to be formatted to meet standards
 * 17) Reference 6 is from a personal site, but it is a picture so it may be okay to cite
 * 18) Reference 9 takes original research from a picture off a personal site and is improperly cited
 * 19) Reference 15 is supposed to link to sattelite imagery of the route in Scranton but instead links to imagery in the Lehigh Valley
 * 20) The URL for Reference 16 moved but redirects
 * 21) The URL for Reference 22 is incorrect
 * 22) Reference 24 links to NBC 10's home page and not the individual story Dough4872 (talk) 02:04, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Is anybody planning to work on this? --Rschen7754 (T C) 08:28, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

This will be closed out by May 8th if nobody is willing to work on these suggestions. --Rschen7754 (T C) 03:59, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
