Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.

If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)

I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I may use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.

Best of luck! you can also use the {{done}} tag to state when something is addressed. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)}

Please let me know after the review is done, if you were happy with the review! Obviously this is regarding the article's quality, however, I want to be happy and civil to all, so let me know if I have done a good job, regardless of the article's outcome.

Lede

Lede is a little short - could we bulk it up a little? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:29, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Because it's the main piece of info as to what the article is - can we link highway in the lede? In the UK for example, this has a different meaning (we'd say dual carriageway or motorway). Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:29, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Linked the specific article. Nova Chrysalia (Talk) 19:03, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

southern terminus - could we say this a bit more simply? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:29, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Nova Chrysalia (Talk) 19:03, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

U.S. Route 90 (US 90) - we then shorten similar roads, without having defined them, like US 11. Is there a better way to do this? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:29, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I actually think this bit is good info for the lede. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:29, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

General

INFINITY Science Center pipes to a redirect. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:36, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done, title must've changed since. Nova Chrysalia (Talk) 19:03, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Signage for MS 607 at I-59's exit 1 - quite a poor caption. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:36, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Better? Nova Chrysalia (Talk) 19:03, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Could we get some alt text? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:36, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Nova Chrysalia (Talk) 19:03, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The History section could probably be written a bit less frantically, and explain a bit more that the road is the remnants of US 90. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:36, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The History doesn't seem extremely clear when the road became the 607 - 1967? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:36, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
External links doesn't have any links, just a portal, can probably cull. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:36, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
