Hello, I will be your reviewer today. Can I start you off with some water, or are we all ready to begin? :)
Just a quick precursory glance and I noticed a few things:
The route runs 12.074 mi (19.431 km) from...
Should it be this specific in the lead when it is sourced below in the exit list and to the right in the infobox? Would "12 miles (19 km)" not sufficiently indicate its length here?
There's nothing wrong with indicating the approximate length, but since there is a more precise measurement it is better to use that. Dough487202:40, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
MS 172 was created on the former US 72 by 1998.
Sounds a bit awkward, perhaps "By 1998, the former routing of US 72 was designated MS 172"
By 1939, the entire length of current MS 172 was a paved highway that remained a part of US 72.
I get what this says, but it seems an odd way of putting it. Perhaps "By 1939, the section of US 72 that would be redesignated as MS 172 was fully paved" (or something similar along these lines. My grammar = fail)
A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):
Alrighty. The only other thing I've noticed is the lack of non-breaking spaces within route names, for example: US 78. I figure that is a quick fix you can take care of, so I've passed the article. - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲτ¢04:13, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
