[edit] Ohio State Route 605

I would go by what the Technical Services Straight Line Diagrams say. These come straight from ODOT, and are what I believe to be the definitive source on all state, federal, and interstate routes in Ohio. — Homefryes SayDo 13:01, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Glad to help! — Homefryes SayDo 13:12, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Original state routes"

Hi; just a quick note...if Simpson's page states that a route is an "original state highway," then it was certified in 1924. This information can be found at Explanation of the Ohio State Highway System (The Unofficial Ohio State Highways Web Site) by John Simpson. Just a little tidbit for ya! Happy editing! — Homefryes SayDo 13:44, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the infobox city help

[edit] Article Rating

Good day. I noticed you recently rated the Columbus, Ohio article as "B" class. However, there was no explanation as to the reasoning behind this mark. Could you provide some justification for it as well as suggest ways in which the article could be improved? That would be immensely helpful. The article is quite extensive and very well referenced, so I am a bit surprised that it was given the same grade as approximately 1.5 years ago prior to a number of major improvements. --Analogue Kid 14:28, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Ohioan, I've quickly checked out the Columbus, Ohio article and it appears to be ready to become a good article. If you want, nominate the article on the good article nomination page. I'll then review it more completely and will be happy to promote it (if everything checks out).--Alabamaboy 23:57, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Good deal.--Analogue Kid 04:20, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your GA nomination of Columbus, Ohio

The article Columbus, Ohio you nominated as a good article has passed. Good luck in future nominations. --Alabamaboy 23:51, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Many thanks for the nomination. I'll hopefully be working on it some more with the long term goal of having it become a featured article. --Analogue Kid 04:32, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
