Hi! Happy to review. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 17:55, 24 April 2016 (UTC)

Nice article. Here are my comments:

• Lead

• "plan" looks a bit too repeated in the first few lines.

• Done. --Rschen7754 06:14, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

• Don't say currently, say something like as of 2016.

• Done. --Rschen7754 06:14, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

• I think it should be clear from the first line itself that the route is under construction.

• Done. --Rschen7754 06:14, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

• Route description

• Maybe History should precede this section? That's the order I have seen in similar articles.

• I would say that 4 out of 5 actually have the History second, though both are valid per WP:USRD/STDS. --Rschen7754 05:57, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

• You should know better about this. Do as you think best. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 12:06, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

• State Route 11 (SR 11) is a state route in San Diego County Please mention this part as well when you begin with the main article.

• In such a short article, I don't think this is necessary; it's in the lead, and in the Major intersections section. --Rschen7754 06:14, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

• You have a point there. Let it be. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 12:06, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

• Reword currently as suggested above.

• Done. --Rschen7754 06:14, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

• History:

• The entire road could be complete by 2017 You mean "is expected to be complete by"? I think this fact is important enough to be mentioned in the lead.

• Done. --Rschen7754 04:08, 29 April 2016 (UTC)

• Are all points in the table sourced?

• • Added references for the two that weren't. --Rschen7754 04:08, 29 April 2016 (UTC)

That should be it. I will return this weekend. I would be happy to promote this once the above points are addressed. Cheers, Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 12:06, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

@Sainsf: all done. --Rschen7754 04:08, 29 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks Rschen7754. I see no more issues with the article, really good work. This is promoted. Cheers! Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 03:56, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

Result: No consensus. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 00:25, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Updates are needed to keep this as a GA. ChessEric 01:33, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

@ChessEric: using a GAR to prompt article updates is a bit like using a sledgehammer to swat a fly, especially when your nomination statement omits what updates are needed. A better tactic would have been to post a list of needed updates on the article's talk page. A best tactic would have been to make the updates yourself if you could, and request assistance on the talk page only if you could not, say if lacked access to a source or sources for information you know warrants inclusion.

Now that we're here, what needs updating? Since I'm not clairvoyant, I need you to give me some indication if I'm going to help. Imzadi 1979 → 07:11, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

My apologies. I was bouncing around and editing many things at once and didn't put in a detailed description.

The updates are needed in the future section; it is outdated as the scheduled completion dates listed have either passed or are about to be passed. Additionally, some of the info within the section belongs in the history section. There is also, in my opinion, not enough information regarding Otay Mesa East Port of Entry border crossing, which is going to be the eastern terminus of this route. I would edit it myself, but I've also been busy with schoolwork and don't have time to look things up. However, I did find this article to help out with the update. ChessEric 01:00, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

@ChessEric: I would reiterate the suggestion that trying some basic edits yourself would have been a much better course of action than initiating a blunt-force demotion discussion, especially since it looks like your issue is with a pair of sentences. (Please note that per WP:SS and other factors, we shouldn't add too much content about the PoE here as that is not the subject of this article.) Imzadi 1979 → 08:41, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

I'm not trying to demote it; I'm just saying some things need to be updated. You're right that the GAR was a little too much, but I also didn't want to put an "update section" tag on a GA. ChessEric 21:20, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

@ChessEric and Imzadi1979: where does this GAR stand? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 19:37, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

Not sure at this point. ChessEric 20:18, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
