  • "11.977-mile-long (19.275 km)" overly precise, suggest nearest 1/100th.

  • How do I use ref 1 to verify that value?
  • "the state highway system when" link and isn't this normally capitalised?
Should it link to Kansas State Highway System?
No, my mistake, I was thinking of National Highway System. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 18:49, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, no problem -420Traveler (talk) 21:48, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "At times sections" I would add a comma after "times".

  • "to pass through rolling hills. The highway passes" pass/passes repeat.

  • "-117 is not included in the National Highway System.[6] The National Highway System is a system of highways important to the nation's defense, economy, and mobility. K-117 doesn't connect to the National Highway System either" this is clunky, repetitive and contains a contraction. Needs re-working. The middle sentence appears to be a footnote really, as well.

  • "Nebraska southward" comma after Nebraska.
 Fixed -420Traveler (talk) 21:48, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "January 6, 1937 meeting," comma after 1937.

  • Lots more of those.

  • " a .5 miles (0.80 km) section" 0.5 mile (use adj=on in the convert template)

That's all I have on a quick first pass. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 15:26, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'll promote but can you add a note to ref 1 like I did on the 152 article which tells readers how to use the source please? Cheers. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 19:04, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I will add the notes. Thanks for adding those notes in, I wasn't exactly sure how to do it properly. Thanks -420Traveler (talk) 19:43, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
