    Pass/Fail:

This is an oversight. The first map it appears on is the 1933 one but there's a (blogger?) who usually likes the estimate it was the year before, and many of our older pages are based on that. Thanks for pointing it out.--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Done--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Added a quick sentence saying its a rural route, let me know if it should be more.--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Looks Great -420Traveler (talk) 06:00, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Done.--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Made the distinction that it is an at-grade crossing.--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I really wrestled over this wording but I think what you wrote was probably the best. I wasn't too sure about the double "ands" in the second sentence, however, I think it best fits the situation. I tried really hard to get rid of it but couldn't think of a better way.--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That looks good. 420Traveler (talk) 06:00, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Completed.--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Looks great finished the section off great, just one thing is you should add "vehicles per day" after each traffic count number. -420Traveler (talk) 06:00, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Just added that, thank you--Ncchild (talk) 13:40, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I know that no towns claim the area (Faison being the closest one) and to the best of my knowledge it is not in a township or unincorporated community. Personally, I've driven by this exit, there's nothing out there.--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thats ok, I know some states dont have towns for every area, just not sure about North Carolina. -420Traveler (talk) 06:00, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That's a good idea, I fixed it.--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Done except for some of the older maps (before it was NCDOT)--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good but before it was NCDOT, were they located in a certain place? -420Traveler (talk) 06:00, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I went through and added them, the vast majority were in Raleigh. Some I just missed from the source, one I had to make an inference but given all other maps were produced in Winston-Salem that decade, I think it's safe to assume that one was as well.--Ncchild (talk) 13:40, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Funny you said that. When I made the article there was not but as of January 21, someone did upload a good one. Thanks for pointing that out.--Ncchild (talk) 03:29, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Perfect, looks good. -420Traveler (talk) 06:00, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's not necessarily missing a word but I see where it's confusing. US 117 Connector is part of the NHS and NC 403 runs along it for 0.2. The "northern" terminus of that would be where the route diverges from 117 Connector. I rewrote it as "NC 403 is part of the National Highway System for 0.2 miles (0.32 km), entirely concurrent with US 117 Connector near Faison.". Is that okay?--Ncchild (talk) 14:51, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think that works a lot better thank you!--Ncchild (talk) 14:51, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Everything looks good, passing the article now. -420Traveler (talk) 19:04, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
