• Standard comment with ref 1, it isn't working and I don't know how to verify the info via the archived link. Add that note to the ref from one our previous GANs?

• "the northern terminus follows the former Golden Belt" is this related to the previous clause in that sentence, it's not clear?

Should be fixed now? -420Traveler (talk) 17:22, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• "designated K-140 and K-141" K-140 overlinked in the lead.

• "Route description" first three paras start with K-141, mix it up, just get the second para to start with something different.

• "13.470 miles (21.678 km). " and infobox, false precision really.

• "Kanopolis Dam. " linked in the body not in the lead?

• "The National Highway System is a system..." that's a footnote.

• "3.470 miles (5.584 km) is " over precise again.

• What is this "former Golden Belt"?

 Fixed -420Traveler (talk) 17:22, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• "known as Kansas Department of Transportation, passed" overlinked, and you can use KDOT.

• " Road 1⁄2 mile " suddenly a fraction, why not 0.5?

• "completed in the Fall 1961" avoid seasons, especially when it should be autumn, and not capitalised.

• "972,501 " over precise inflation, nearest $1000 usually suffices.
• "647,878" likewise.

The inflation value is automatically calculated, not sure how to change this? Also shouldn't the information be precise? -420Traveler (talk) 17:22, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Set the r=0 to r=-3 to go to nearest $1000, and no, inflation is not precise so it's daft to inflate to the nearest dollar. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 20:00, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• "Company of McPherson completed" overlinked.

• Ref 23, shouting and spaced hyphen, should be en-dash.

Changed to en-dash. But in the article it is spelled in all uppercase. -420Traveler (talk) 17:22, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That's all I have. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 15:36, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
