I'm not doing anything else tonight, might as well review an article. TCN7JM 05:17, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Links like "Dolphin Expressway (SR 836)" look kind of awkward. I'd link either Dolphin Expressway or SR 836, not both. This is done more than once in the article.
  2. The highway seems to pass north of Florida Memorial University, not through it.
  3. For clarity, I would reword the sentence to say the route forms the northern border of the campus of St. Thomas University.
  4. "Left" and "right" are ambiguous terms and should be avoided. I'm specifically referring to the last paragraph of the route description. Use compass directions instead.
  5. Should use a conversion template for "ten miles" in the history.
  6. The first and fourth paragraphs in the history are unsourced entirely. Sources need to be cited for the statements in them.
  7. I would try to find a replacement for the picture in the future section. The current one has a bit too much glare; it's even noticeable as small as the picture is in the article.

These are the only issues I have with the article. I will put this on hold for you to fix them. TCN7JM 06:56, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • I have made changes to the article as per your recommendations. Unfortunately, as I am not a nearby resident (such are the joys of living on the other side of the world), I cannot use a royalty-free or fair-use image like the one in the Future section, so I have removed it from display. Also, I hope that I have cited the 1945 renumbering of Florida State Roads act/bill correctly, as a source for the first paragraph of the History section. -DyluckTRocket (talk) 10:11, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    I do believe you've misconstrued one of my recommendations. What I meant for you to do regarding the first point was to leave the SR designations in the article in parentheses next to the named designations, but to remove them from the link. Though I can see how this could have been misunderstood to mean to remove the SR designations entirely. (Example: Dolphin Expressway (SR 836)) TCN7JM 10:28, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    I believe that should be fixed now. I didn't add on dual designations for the sections past the Route Description for the sake of simplicity, as I believe the use of both terms when the road's first introduced in the article allows for interchangeability in terminology later on. -DyluckTRocket (talk) 03:13, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Alright, that looks better. I will pass this article now. Good job. TCN7JM 12:52, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
