Reviewer: Racepacket ( talk) 00:28, 28 January 2011 (UTC) I enjoyed this article. The first time I drove through the Wheeling Tunnel was in April 1969. reply

Hah, my parents were 8 when you drove through for the first time :p. -- Admrboltz ( talk) 03:49, 28 January 2011 (UTC) We drove from Baltimore MD to Athens OH on the recently-opened I-70. reply

GA review (see here for criteria)

Disamb. links and external links check out.

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b ( MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   You have the opening date in the infobox. I suggest it also be in the text.

   The infobox states that this is I-70 and US Route 250, but I suggest it also be in the text.

   If the opening date was in 1966, why the category "1967 establishments"?

   Corrected.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c ( OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   Was the tunnel planned as a part of the interstate highway system, or were there long-standing plans which predate the system?

   Sources claim this to be the most expensive single contract on the IHS in West Virginia, so I would say that this was just part of the IHS and not any previous plans. -- Admrboltz ( talk) 01:57, 28 January 2011 (UTC) reply

   Any plans at present to improve the tunnel. Fn 17 makes reference to an "incident detection system."

   From what I can tell, that has been added, but its a normal safety feature that's present in any tunnel of length nowadays. -- Admrboltz ( talk) 01:57, 28 January 2011 (UTC) reply

   How about reporting the cost of the tunnel rennovation. (Fn 17 says $13.7 million).

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, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

   Nice photo which checks out.

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   I am placing the article on hold. Racepacket ( talk) 01:48, 28 January 2011 (UTC) reply
