Assessment

[edit]

The route description is a single sentence and needs to be expanded before this article should merit consideration for B-class. -- Kéiryn (talk) 16:35, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

BL-80

[edit]

I have emailed UDOT, and am waiting for a response, but I can find no legal source that states that this is also BL-80. Yes, there are pictures and fan websites, etc, but as far as Utah Code and from what I can find on UDOTs website, I can find no legal definition.

I also emailed NDOT, because I was going to create a combined Wendover Blvd BL-80 article for both states, but I could not find a legal source stating it was a BL, and they said they cant even find the paperwork that would have needed to be sent to get the definition. As far as Nevada state law is concerned, Wendover Blvd between the state line and Alt-93 is just Local collector route #3003. They are attempting to contact AASHTO, but they aren't getting anywhere fast. --Admrb♉ltz (tclog) 15:51, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.

    A few minor prose issues. I'll go do a quick copy edit to clear them up here.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    I would like to see photographer/author credits for the photos added to the references, but this is a minor detail.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  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):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    Barring the very minor prose issues which would be easier for me to fix than to list here, the article is very good. I rate it as a pass. Imzadi1979 (talk) 01:58, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Interstate 80 Business (West Wendover, Nevada–Wendover, Utah)Interstate 80 Business (Wendover Boulevard) – Looking at WP:USSH, the guideline for naming business routes such as this one, is "Interstate X Business (City, State)". However, the guideline doesn’t mention what to do if the route covers more than one city and state, such as this route. As such, I think "Interstate 80 Business (Wendover Boulevard)" would make a better title for this page. 24.228.135.248 (talk) 19:26, 20 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Route color

[edit]

Does anyone think that this route should be highlighted in green? Cause that seems to be the color that a lot of Interstate Business routes are. NintendoTTTEfan2005 (talk) 05:50, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The standard practice across Wikipedia (not just road articles) is if a highlighted object in a map is used to illustrate location, to use the color red. If two colors are required, typically the secondary color is blue. I'm not sure how that came to be, nor if it is formally codified or just tradition. However, it's fairly standardized across Wikipedia. Regardless, Green is not a safe color choice to highlight objects on a map, given red-green colorblindness is the most common type and almost all maps already use red for lines in the map.Dave (talk) 17:40, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Probably delist from FA status

[edit]

I feel like this article should undergo FAR. There's a {{primary}} tag at the top, and there's two {{citation needed}} tags in the history section which should be grossly obvious for a delist. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 21:51, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@NoobThreePointOh: no, it's not. The tag at the top isn't appropriate as the article doesn't overly rely on primary sources. It may use a lot of first-party sources, but some editors conflate that issue.
As for the two citation needed tags, one took about 30 seconds to replace with a source. The other may take a little longer, but it isn't impossible to replace. Since any FAR would take a minimum of two weeks to conduct, I expect that the tag could be replaced in that time frame. In short, no, it's not "grossly obvious" for a delist.
