M-28 Business (Newberry, Michigan)
review
 * Suggestion: Promote to A-Class
 * Nominator's comments: The first business loop for M-28, and now the last BUS M-28 article to come to the ACR process.

 * Please fix the alt text - check the tool for details. --Rschen7754 22:01, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, so the edit that added it before I nominated it didn't save. Re-added the ALT text again. Imzadi1979 (talk) 22:45, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - The article is entirely reliant on map sources. Are there any non-map sources mentioning the business route available? Other than that, I would be willing to support the article. ---Dough4872 23:37, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
 * There's the Michigan Highways site, but that's an SPS. Any newspaper archives for the area are not available online for the 1930s–1950s. It didn't have a memorial highway or other name applied to any part of it, so it's not in the Leo Barnett book about MI's named highways. Google doesn't turn up anything except mirrors of this page, or the Michigan Highways website, but it does appear on the maps I have. Imzadi1979 (talk) 03:32, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Support - Since my question has been answered, I will now support. ---Dough4872 03:59, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Support straight out of the box. Great job. One recommendation though...would you consider removing the legend from the junction list (using a more generic table end template like jctbtm)? This jctlist uses no colors, and colors are against STDS now, anyway. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 21:46, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Since only one color is allowed now (the unbuilt shading), I have considered modifying jcttop to accept an unbuilt parameter of some sort. That way, nothing is displayed if no colors are used and if the unbuilt color is used, it will display a hatnote saying "Entries in gray are unbuilt highways" or some such. As for the article, I'll make a review of it at some point in the near future. –  T M F 19:34, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I've modified the MIintbtm template to be a redirect of jctbtm since I did an AWB run to remove all the colors from MI articles. Imzadi1979 (talk) 19:39, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, my suggestion was more of a nationwide suggestion since there are states that use the unbuilt shading and I have seen reviewers comment in the past on how we don't provide an explanation of what the shading means. –  T M F 22:06, 21 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Review by Rschen7754
 * "It ran west of the city of Newberry, passing through the community of Dollarville before entering downtown. Once in downtown Newberry, the highway turned south and ended near the county airport." - consider combining sentences
 * RD - again with "West of the Luce County Airport, M-117/BUS M-28 met M-28. M-117 turned west along M-28 and the business loop ended."
 * In a RD of this length no two sentences should start with the same word.
 * Standard disclaimer about short articles at FAC, of course.
 * Standard disclaimer about articles using only maps, of course. (I say these things just to acknowledge that you are aware of the risks of taking such an article to FAC. I still hope for its success though). --Rschen7754 03:58, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Copy edits made. I don't have any plans to take this article to FAC. Imzadi1979 (talk) 04:21, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Still missing one. --Rschen7754 04:36, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Must have missed that when I was saving the edit... Imzadi1979 (talk) 04:47, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Support promotion with the FAC disclaimer. --Rschen7754 04:55, 16 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Support all major issues resolved. As others commented above, this likely needs more work to get to FA, but since the nominator has indicated that he has no plans to pursue FAC with this article, this is a moot point. –  T M F 04:06, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
