State Route designation

There is much disagreement among sources about the number of the east-west section (Communipaw Ave etc) - some say 25T, some say 25M (of which there was another at New Brunswick, now 171), and some even say 25. --SPUI (talk) 08:06, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

25

(1930s, 1941 maps show 25 on the Skyway)

1950 map
1952 map
City Linked to Super-Highway, New York Times January 20, 1952 page X17 - map
official 1953 renumbering plans - "U. S. 1 Truck: From junction of Route U. S. 1 at west end of Pulaski Skyway, via former Route 25 (Communipaw Avenue) to former Route 1"; calls the Pulaski Skyway just the Pulaski Skyway, however it also leaves out the other 25M (171)

25M

Protecting Drawbridges, New York Times January 31, 1937 page 176 - "drawspans on Route 25M, Communipaw Avenue, between Newark and Jersey City"

25T

Jersey Renumbered, New York Times December 28, 1952 page X15 - "25-T..US-1--Truck"

Designates 1/9 as "Regionally significant highway facilities"

Has a nicely worded description that "Truck 1/9 continues north to Jersey City, Union City, and North Bergen, and splits in the vicinity of the George Washington Bridge"

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
A few small, things, but nothing a copyedit can't solve.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
You know that you can use the variable "work" for the newspaper in {{cite news}}, making it automatically in italics. The issue that is important, is that the two last references lack a title. I'm not quite sure what the title should be (since I know little about US law), so could you please add them.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
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):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
I will pass the article as good, under the condition that the one issue regarding titles for the two refs are fixed up. To be a bit frank, the last paragraph almost seems a bit out-of-place, and I would not complain if the last paragraph (about the definition of a truck) was removed, while it is okay if it remains too. Arsenikk ^(talk) 11:08, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

After reading it, it did seem very out of place, so I removed it and I fixed the lone ref missing a title. Also, I don't know how to work templates that well, so how do you fix that?Mitch32^{(The Password is... See here!)} 12:33, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations with a good article :) Arsenikk ^(talk) 23:34, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What I do with {{cite news}} templates is the following variables: "url" (if online), "title" (title of article), "work" (newspaper or magazine), "last" (last name of author), "first" (first name of author), "author" (full name of author if multiple authors, use instead of last and first), "authorlink" (wikilink to author, only if they have an article on Wikipedia), "pages" (page number if printed edition), "accessdate" (for online newspapers) and "language" (for non-English papers). For the sake of "work", it will automatically put it in italics. Hope that answered the question. Arsenikk ^(talk) 23:34, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
