Pass or Fail:
I would recommend some "blue link" reduction throughout the article. Several links are repeated. I also notice that you've a lot of other articles waiting for review. If the other articles need metric conversions too, now would be a good time to take care of those. --Brad (talk) 01:38, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The other guy can do the blue links. But the metrics are not necessary as the US main system isn't metric (see WP:USRD/STDS).Mitch32^{(The Password is... See here!)} 01:50, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

From what I see, I have not overused links in the article. It follows what is called for at WP:MOSLINKS in terms only being linked in the infobox, lead, once in the prose, and the table. Also, as Mitch said, it is not standard for metric conversions to be included in the Major intersections table. Dough4872 (talk) 03:13, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The bluelink problem isn't going to hold the article up from GA; I will gladly pass it. However, Morristown is linked 6 times in the article. The infobox alone has Springfield Twp linked 4 times all directly underneath each other. The blue is distracting and in a lot of cases, unnecessary. Pic captions have links to places that are already linked in the section text etc. --Brad (talk) 19:13, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

GA Reassessment

This discussion is transcluded from Talk:New Jersey Route 124/GA2. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.

There are several SPS used to write the history.
The RD needs some work - use abbreviations, and cut some of the unnecessary detail.

I will give a week for changes to be made; if no efforts are made within a week this will be delisted. --Rs chen 7754 06:16, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have gone through the route description and switched road names to abbreviations. T C N7JM 12:24, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the SPSs from the article. Dough 48 72 00:37, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Closing since this has been fixed. --Rs chen 7754 00:39, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
