List of bridges in Montreal was a good article nominee, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. There are suggestions below for improving the article. Once these are addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. Reviewed version: October 4, 2007 |

[edit] Ottawa R rail bridges
The two rail bridges at the west end of the island are entirely separate, with the first being built in the 1850s or '60s by CN predecessor Grand Trunk and the newer one built by the CP. --plaws 20:25, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Stm logo.jpg
Image:Stm logo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Reformatting this article as a table
As I looked at the list of crossings for the Saint Lawrence River and other bodies of water in Quebec, I found that the table format of these lists is more useful than the simple list this article is formatted into. Unless there is some opposition to what I intend to do, I will proceed with the reformatting of the entire article by the end of the month.Blanchardb 16:17, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
- Works for me - go for it! --plaws 21:31, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
I will proceed tomorrow then.Blanchardb 23:56, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Done. There might be a few kinks to correct, but I did remove duplicate links while I was at it. Blanchardb 02:41, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- I like it but ... I don't know table markup well enough to do this myself: can the width of the cells be narrowed? The table is too wide for my browser, and likely many others. --plaws 16:14, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
It can be done. Actually, it is fairly simple. Blanchardb 20:18, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Rating
The list of spans to and from Montreal Island is complete, although some info is missing for some individual spans. However, I do not want my assessment to be unilateral, so let it stand at GA for the time being. Blanchardb 20:46, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] GA fail
I'm quick failing this GA nomination - per WP:WIAGA, lists are not reviewed under the GA system, and should instead be nominated for WP:FL status. Frickative 23:30, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
