Pennsylvania Turnpike ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs) review
It's been almost a month since we've started this. Any objections to closing this? -- Rs chen 7754 06:55, 4 March 2013 (UTC) reply
Let's do this. First, a general note: This article could use a good copyedit. I recommend asking one of the copyedit-request groups to lend a set of eyes to the article. For the most part, I will not touch on these in my review.
That's 50 points. I believe that's sufficient to illustrate its shortcomings (and besides, I am quickly becoming delirious). This article has a lot of potential. It appears to be built on a solid base of research (357 references!), and is very thorough. If this article were a building, those are the foundation and structure, respectively. The issue is the interior furnishings. Unfortunately, just good research and thoroughness do not an A-Class article make—one has to have compelling prose, too. This article needs quite a bit of attention to the actual writing before it can be put forward as our best work. So I must oppose at this time. The good news is, however, that this is comparatively easier than if you had to fix an article that is shoddily researched or with serious holes in its coverage. Request a copyedit, tune up that prose, and this article can shine. — Scott5114 ↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 08:57, 26 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Overall, images look good and their placement in the article is good. Sounder Bruce 05:12, 24 March 2013 (UTC) reply
After Scott is done reviewing, I'd like to look over the article once or twice to see if there are any major errors that stand out at me. I may not support/oppose, but if I find enough stuff that this turns into an actual review, I will. T C N7JM 05:01, 24 March 2013 (UTC) reply
