"Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) counts"

[edit]

This[6] source doesn't actually point to a document, it points to a page where two different documents can be downloaded. Neither appear to support most of what is sourced to it. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 00:41, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well it does, you just don't know what to look for. These tables include traffic counts for each segment of the road, from which the highest and lowest traffic counts can be taken. Admittedly, that's an out of date document (2016 is the current version). In the second link, Highway 11 is PDF pages 15 through 19. - Floydian τ ¢ 00:50, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
But which of the two documents is the one being cited? Horse Eye's Back (talk) 00:56, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The website itself is, it has a dropdown box. All 3 are the same document, just sorted/filtered. - Floydian τ ¢ 00:58, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
But the url actually needs to go to the exact webpage which supports the citation. Just FYI almost none of what is currently sourced to it is supported by pages 15 through 19, we're using this as a complex narrative source for things besides traffic counts. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 01:00, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Where? I use it to cite distances and intersections. The maps that cite the description are perfectly acceptable to use to describe the geometry of linear features. Also it does go to the webpge which supports the citation, you're just either incompetent or desperately grasping at straws. - Floydian τ ¢ 01:18, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
For me it takes clicks to access the data, how do you get them without clicking through to another page? The entire "Major intersections" section is sourced to it alone. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 01:30, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You select 11 from the drop down and navigate it section by section... or you open the pdf which conveniently presents it on a single page. Are you browsing with a Commodore 64, or is your mouse too sticky? And yes, the major intersections are sourced to a document that, by golly, lists the intersections along the route! I've used editorial discretion to remove certain entries that are either not intersections, or are minor lot roads. If that's a problem, I suggest an RfC at WP:LISTS. - Floydian τ ¢ 01:36, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Mouse? Haven't used one of those in years. Where are you seeing anything which would support the notes section? For example: "North end of Highway 65 concurrency; north end of tri-Town Bypass; formerly Highway 11B south" Horse Eye's Back (talk) 01:47, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The concurrency is mentioned (probably under Highway 65), as is Tri-Town Bypass and 11B. Admittedly, those notes could use an extra ref (hence the GAN). Do you have anything of substance to claim, or can I start ignoring this as circuitous, pointy, and WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT? - Floydian τ ¢ 02:32, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see any concurrencies mentioned under Highway 65. Glad we agree that the notes are OR. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 04:08, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"N JCT HWY 65 AND HWY 11 OVERLAP - HWY 11 S JCT HWY 65 AND HWY 11 2.7km". The notes aren't OR, they don't have a proper reference. Learn the fucking difference. - Floydian τ ¢ 04:18, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh there it is, I was looking for concurrency not overlap. You're right, most do appear to conceivably be verifiable. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 04:36, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

At a cursory glance, citations seem regular and to back up facts, there aren't any banners or noteworthy inline tags. The article contains a lot of detail about the topic to which it pertains and appears to provide a comprehensive overview.
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a. (prose, spelling, and grammar):
    The prose is concise, grammar and spelling are to a high standard besides a few superficial errors I have corrected, and the article is overall easy-to-read and understandable.
    b. (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    This article does not cover fiction, the lead section is perhaps a bit long but absolutely passable, word choice is acceptable. Lists and layout are also appropriate.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a. (reference section):
    All 145 references are listed at the bottom of the page.
    b. (citations to reliable sources):
    The vast majority of sources listed are indisputably reliable. There are some links to Google Maps, which are perhaps not ideal by themselves, but are consistent in their information with other sources. There was one dead source I came across, but I have linked in an archive.
    c. (OR):
    No original research is cited. Of the citations I checked, all back up the article.
    d. (copyvio and plagiarism):
    After a manual check as well as using https://copyvios.toolforge.org, I cannot find any evidence of WP:COPYVIO or WP:PLAGIARISM.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a. (major aspects):
    The article covers the history, route, and future of the road in great detail, not straying from that topic.
    b. (focused):
    The article is concise while providing a lot of relevant detail. There are not any tangents that I can see.
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
    Nothing here violates WP:NPOV. The article doesn't touch on controversial issues, and certainly doesn't pick a side in any.
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
    I can't see any recent edit wars at all, seems to me like it's stable.
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a. (images are tagged and non-free content have non-free use rationales):
    All images are clearly tagged as either CC or public domain. WP:AGF on the origins of the images, of course.
    b. (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    All media adds to the article and uses informative, concise descriptions.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/fail:

(Criteria marked are unassessed)
