Hi; I've put a fair amount of effort into copyediting this article as a potential future FAC (whose [[WP:FA?|criteria]] mandates that an article's prose be "engaging, even brilliant, and of a professional standard"), but [[User:Imzadi1979|Imzadi1979]] is [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pennsylvania_Turnpike&diff=557914959&oldid=557852058 undoing my edits]. Therefore, I'm removing it from the [[WP:GOCE/REQ|requests list]] and archiving it.

:{{tps}} Imzadi1979 did not undo your edit, only the parts that added nothing to the article, like the alt text, which isn't an FA requirement anymore, the incorrect switching of capitalized words to lowercase, random edits to the citation template that don't even show up in the article, and all but undoing things Dough4872 was asked to fix in [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Highways/Assessment/A-Class Review/Pennsylvania Turnpike/archive1|two]] [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Highways/Assessment/A-Class Review/Pennsylvania Turnpike/archive2|A-Class Reviews]]. He did nothing wrong, and you should reinstate this on the GOCE requests list for an editor more willing to copyedit the article correctly. <big>[[User talk:TCN7JM|<font color="blue" face="Garamond">T</font>]][[Special:Contributions/TCN7JM|<font color="red" face="Garamond">C</font>]][[User:TCN7JM|<font color="gray" face="Garamond">N7</font><font color="black" face="Garamond">JM</font>]]</big> 16:33, 2 June 2013 (UTC) |

Baltimore Ravens
I saw you reverted the extraneous text Tony Spike dumped into the lead of Baltimore Ravens. Nice job. You must not have noticed that he also changed the wikilink from AFC to NFC for some inexplicable reason. Can you revert that, too? Thanks. --76.189.111.199 (talk) 04:22, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

SH 82 GA thanks
Thank you for passing that article. I appreciate the recognition; I hope that eventually I can make it the first Colorado surface road to get to FA.
This means a lot, incidentally, because it's the first road article I've gotten to GA largely all by myself (and, ironically, it's about a road over 2,000 miles away from where I live, one that I only rode on a few times during a short visit two and a half years ago). Daniel Case (talk) 03:25, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
Yes, I was advised to take it to ACR before FAC, and I'll be doing that. However, not right away ... I find the intensity of the process of improving an article such that, having gone through one step in the process, I need to take a break before I come back to it.
Besides, I have sort of an overall plan on this. Two months ago I got Independence Pass to GA. I have also emailed the link to the head of the Independence Pass Foundation for some external peer review (which might also be a good idea for the SH 82 article if I could find someone interested at CODOT), and he had some things I want to incorporate into that article before taking it to FAC.
The idea is, if I can get both articles to FAC, I think it would be possible to propose a Main Page blurb that links to both articles, and preferably have it run on July 4 (since that's how the pass got its name). It would be a first. Hopefully it could happen this year, but if not, I think it will work next year. Daniel Case (talk) 04:15, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
My idea is that it would be a single blurb, with both articles linked and bolded, but just the one picture of the pass (which of course shows the road as well). Not the way we did it on Election Day 2008. Daniel Case (talk) 04:27, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
So do I. For now we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Before the next step on SH 82 (which is to say, after I've taken time to work on other articles of interest (and hoping things like the SPI that I was involved in for most of this week don't take up too much of my time), I want to make sure all the redlinks are blue (and, if possible, that they link to decent articles that are at least better than stubs).

Disambiguation link notification for February 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Former state routes in Pennsylvania, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Delorme (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 13:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
Proposed closing of Morriswa RFC

Misposted messages
I have copied the two messages below from Talk:Dough4872. JohnCD (talk) 12:56, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
Reinsertion of Irrelevant Source Citation - Route 24
You undid a revision that I made on Feb 12 for Route 24 (New Jersey) regarding one citation source for 2 statements in the article.
I have opened up a Talk Page, Reinsertion of Irrelevant Source Citation.
It addresses that citation source for one of the article statements.
I left in the citation source for the second article statement.
Please go to the Talk Page and indicate:
1. You agree with my proposed change for the cited article statement; or
2. Why The Record citation, which makes NO mention of any of the specific details for the future extension in the article and could NOT forecast in 1992 that the plans were scrapped in 1993, should be reinserted when the NJ 24 Freeway website that I propose to add fully covers the referenced statement.
Thanks. I look forward to working with you.Wondering55 (talk) 02:29, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
- I am waiting for you to respond to Talk page for "Reinsertion of Irrelevant Source Citation" for New Jersey Route 24 for you to address why irrelevant Record article should be cited rather than an alternate relevant/correct cited source. If you now agree with my reasons, which are straight forward and based on the facts, for making the original changes, please confirm that on the Talk page. No one else has objected to the changes that I want to make. Thanks for your assistance.Wondering55 (talk) 21:46, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
- I would appreciate if you would respond to Reinsertion of Irrelevant Source Citation and confirm if you agree or if there is a problem with replacing 1 of 2 citations from a Record article, which DOES NOT provide required details for the referenced statement, with a cited source that DOES provide required details. No one else indicated any problems with this source replacement. If I don't hear back from you, I will assume you have no concerns about the source replacement. Thanks for your consideration. I would look forward to working with you.Wondering55 (talk) 14:09, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
Santa Rosa Mall
Just wanted to let you know that the Santa Rosa Mall article, which you gave a cleanup job last year, was also a hijacking. It was originally a stub about a mall in Florida, but an IP overwrote it in 2011 to be about a mall in Puerto Rico. I could barely find any info on the Puerto Rico mall, so I reverted it to be about the Florida mall and added some sources. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:07, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
- It's best not to move the article on the Florida one until after the Puerto Rico one has a page. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:29, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
-
- Not much to it, but it's a start. I added what little I could find. Don't forget to clean up your links. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:46, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
- There. Now the bigger mall in town has an article too, for fairness. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 22:18, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

Creek Turnpike ACR
Just in case you don't have it on your watchlist, I have responded to your concerns on the Creek Turnpike ACR. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 07:13, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
GW Parkway
I am a frequent traveler to the DC area, and can verify that the NPS logo is signed at almost all instances where there are ramps to the GW Parkway. See here as an example. So for now I'm going to revert your change on the Capital Beltway article, but I thought I'd let you know that I believe the shield should stay. -- c16sh (talk to me) 20:08, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
- We typically do not include the NPS logo for roads that are maintained by the NPS. If you feel we should do this for road articles, bring this up at WT:USRD. Dough4872 23:24, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

Florida State Road 261
While normally I'd agree that a co-signed route should be redirected, that would be if it's a hidden route - SR 261 is not a hidden route, it is signed. - The Bushranger One ping only 01:15, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
- The route is still entirely a part of US 319. Regardless of whether it is signed or not, it can easily be covered in that article. Dough4872 01:16, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Invitation to take a short survey about communication and efficiency of WikiProjects for my research
Hi Dough4872, I'm working on a project to study the running of WikiProject and possible performance measures for it. I learn from WikiProject U.S. Roads talk page that you are an active member of the project. I would like to invite you to take a short survey for my study. If you are available to take our survey, could you please reply an email to me? I'm new to Wikipedia, I can't send too many emails to other editors due to anti-spam measure.
