Reviewer: Scott5114 (talk · contribs) 22:50, 27 May 2013 (UTC) Some preliminary comments, before I start on the GA checklist...[reply]

  • The article needs a WP:USRD/MTF-standard map in the infobox. If such a map hasn't been requested, put in a request—it should be simple to fulfill since there is already a KML file.
  • I have requested a map, but I can't guarantee that one will be made any time soon.
  • The map that is in the article is useless. It just shows two perpendicular lines with no context to show where or what it's depicting, or even that it's a map. It should be removed.
  • I have removed it.
  • The AADT information is irrelevant since it's data for FM 1929, not RR 11. Much of this wouldn't be germane to the article anyway; explaining who TxDOT is and why they measure AADT is beyond the scope of the article. Most of this paragraph should be removed.
  • Cut everything but the NHS stuff.
  • a boat-launch ramp of the coast of the lake - on the coast of the lake?
GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    Might want to consider splitting the lead into two paragraphs (one for the r/d and one for the history). The history needs to split into two or more paragraphs. This can be kind of tricky with history sections, but a good idea is to put a paragraph break where a large period of time passes between changes.
    I split the history after the designation of FM 2134, which I believe is reasonable.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    See comments about the AADT info above.
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    See comments about the map above.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    On hold until the above issues are addressed. —Scott5114 [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 01:06, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    I have attempted to address all of your concerns. Thanks for the review, it was looking like I would have a second Cooper, Texas–length waiting period. - Awardgive. Help out with Project Fillmore County 04:52, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Passed. Congrats on your GA (again). —Scott5114 [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 19:35, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
