Lead

• " It is a north–south freeway despite its even number, as the Hawai‘i routes of the Interstate system were not numbered according to the mainland standard" — Not mentioned in body.
  • Removed.
    • I'm not sure you need to remove it. Perhaps you could start "Route description" by saying something like "H-2 is an 8.3-mile-long freeway that runs north–south, connecting Pearl City with Waiawa", and then add a footnote at "north–south" explaining the difference. But I'll leave it up to you. -- Usernameunique ( talk) 05:36, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply
      • I think it would be best to explain the numbering at List of Interstate Highways in Hawaii (if that's ever split out), as it applies to all four routes. Sounder Bruce 05:47, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Route description

• What is the Waiawa Interchange?
  • The name of the interchange, which should be self explanatory.
• Strategic in what sense?
  • Added.
• Are there updated numbers for 2021?
  • They won't be released for a few months, if not longer.

History

• Can this be broken up into subsections?
  • Done.
• $29.2 million can take the {{ inflation}} template.
  • Done.
• Ditto $51 million.
  • Done.
• H-2 was described as "Hawaii's forgotten freeway" — Who described it that way?
  • Credited to "local newspapers", as both dailies used the term.
• Can Cabrini Chapel take a red link?
  • Don't think it would be notable on its own.
• Same for $43 million.
  • Done.

References

• Newspaper titles can take links.
  • Only linked on the first use to prevent overlinking (as there was a merger between the two papers used).
    • Is The Honolulu Advertiser linked? -- Usernameunique ( talk) 05:38, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply
• Retrieval dates not needed for printed matter.
  • Prefer to keep them in case Newspapers.com updates their scans and these are re-clipped.

@ Usernameunique: Thanks for the review. I've responded to your criticisms and made the changes I felt were appropriate. Sounder Bruce 04:13, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply

No problem, SounderBruce. Two comments above, but passing now. -- Usernameunique ( talk) 05:38, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply

By the way, I put this in WP:Good articles/Engineering and technology#Road infrastructure: United States, but if you have a better idea, feel free to move it. -- Usernameunique ( talk) 05:42, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply

I'll move it to the Western subcategory. It is the first Hawaiian road to get up to GA, so no worries about the confusion. Sounder Bruce 05:46, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply
