Good Article promotion

You did it again!
Another round of congratulations are in order for all the work you did in making Ramone Moore a certified "Good Article"! Thank you; your work is much appreciated. All the best, – Quadell (talk)

Re:County Route 657 (Cape May County, New Jersey)

Per WP:USRD/NT, most county routes are not notable enough for their own articles. In New Jersey, only the 500-series routes are notable enough as they comprise a statewide system and in some cases are longer than state highways. However, the non-500 routes that are numbered by county, such as CR 657, are not notable enough for their own articles and can be covered in the county route list or in the article of a related notable route. In the case of CR 657, it is covered in CR 585 since it was formerly part of that route. Dough4872 00:29, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

I still don't see how CR 657 is any more notable than any of the non-500 county routes in New Jersey. Just because it is several miles long does not make it special. A Google search turned up few notable results other than mentioning the route in the addresses of businesses. If you want more input, I would suggest posting at WT:USRD.

How in the world did this hook get on the main page? A future team in a past tournament? I checked your nom and I don't think you wrote it that way. Gerry D (talk) 00:59, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
I am sorry that happened. I looked and looked at it. I said to myself, "this can't be right." I don't think I've ever seen a mistake that bad on the main page. How in the world did it happen? Gerry D (talk) 20:59, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

2010–11 Temple Owls men's basketball team

Not sure how much help I can be with the article. My strength in copy-editing is fixing style errors and the like, not the re-writing that is needed here. It may end up being a little more boring than it is now, but that may be what it needs to be FA-worthy. I'll see later what I can do with the passages I mentioned at FAC; for a full-service copy-edit I recommend Malleus or Diannaa, as they both do fine work (Malleus in particular).

Main page appearance

Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of this article know that it will be appearing as the main page featured article on August 27, 2011. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/August 27, 2011. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured article directors Raul654 (talk · contribs) or his delegate Dabomb87 (talk · contribs), or at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of the suggested formatting. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :D Thanks! Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 04:23, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
