Suggestion: Promote to A-Class

Nominator's comments: Unlike other recent nominations, I don't intend for this to head to FAC for a while. It's an interesting drive to take, and I think it's worthy of polishing up to the A-Class level. As for FAC, I have bigger fish for now.

Comments by Dough4872

I have some concerns with the article before I can support it for A-class:

Is it possible for major points of interest and termini to be listed in the infobox?
Are there any traffic counts from more recently than 2008?
"The road was originally known as the Sleeping Bear Dunes Park when he first opened it to the public in 1967.", is there a title that goes after "Sleeping Bear Dunes Park" such as road?
why is "4.11 m" in brackets and not parentheses? Dough 48 72 21:01, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Will do.
Not from any press sources. The NPS doesn't log traffic counts on this road like MDOT does with its state highways.
Nope, that is the full, complete and total name, "Sleeping Bear Dunes Park".
The conversion is an addition to the quote, and like any added content in a quotation, it's in brackets. Imzadi 1979 → 02:13, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support - Nice article. Dough 48 72 03:08, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Review by Rschen7754

I plan to review this article. --Rs chen 7754 23:38, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No OTRS. --Rs chen 7754 23:49, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Points of interest

Where's the stuff in the notes column coming from? --Rs chen 7754 07:38, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- It's all based on the NPS pamphlet. Imzadi 1979 → 07:41, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Would it be possible to cite it? Since it's a hardcoded header, it could just go in the header. --Rs chen 7754 07:50, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

Copyedit done. --Rs chen 7754 08:30, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Route description

How much is the fee?
- It depends. There's a whole rate schedule based on whether or not the pass is being purchased for a vehicle or an individual, and if the pass is for a week or a year. Imzadi 1979 → 11:35, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

History

What are "these bluffs"?
The name was later changed to Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive in honor the man - of the man?
Was September 3rd Labor Day Weekend? --Rs chen 7754 05:09, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, it was the Saturday of Labor Day Weekend. Copy edits applied for the other two bullet points. Imzadi 1979 → 11:35, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Might want to add that detail. --Rs chen 7754 19:27, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    - Added as a footnote. Imzadi 1979 → 00:08, 31 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support issues resolved. --Rs chen 7754 00:13, 31 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from TCN7JM

Multiple occurrences of punctuation marks outside quotation marks in the lead, RD, and History need to be fixed.
- See WP:LQ, but we don't use the "American" method of sliding all punctuation into the quotation unless it was present in the quotation.
RD: Correct me if I'm wrong, but "some 9.0 miles" would look better as "some 9 miles."
- changed it up to use {{convert/spell}} instead.
History: "and the road became part of park itself" → "and the road became part of the park itself."
- Added.
