can take out while still leaving a concise summary of the article is the technicality about Cedar being a subsidiary (for which I found a ref today). On point number 5, the section named "Expansion plans," I found that the original reference had moved, so I searched for and found its new location and reread it. It does discuss parts of the rest of this section, but doesn't appear include the years that CNW and BN first built into the area, so I searched and found refs for both. Somewhere around the house I've got a copy of
1166: 1145: 1176: 190: 643: 1055: 1034: 776: 1920:), CP has not yet decided if it will actually pursue the Powder River Basin project, so I've changed "will" to "was expected to" for now. This story is still developing, so this could change in the future. On July 13, 2009, CP filed to completely adopt all DM&E/IC&E properties as its own, effective on October 11, 2009 (see the adoption filing and letter on DM&E's website front page). I haven't seen anything yet that confirms if the construction will continue. 1065: 950: 929: 482: 845: 461: 824: 960: 1260: 855: 788: 736: 351: 232: 748: 430: 1584:"Senator Mark Dayton, a Minnesota Democrat who has taken the side of the Mayo Clinic, an opponent of the expansion, questioned the rail company's ability to repay the loan—one of the largest federal loans ever given to a private company, he says. "It's a real perversion of the process and the public interest", says Dayton." This should be reworded, it currently doesn't read very well. 496: 1979:. Continue to improve the article making sure all new information is properly sourced and neutral. It would be beneficial to update the access dates for the online sources. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I have updated the article history to reflect this review. --Happy editing! 2667:. I am not satisfied this article meets the broadness criterion, and it certainly does not meet the verifiability criterion. The article does not make it clear which tense it wants to use for the railroad, either, mixing present and past tense. This would need a significant amount of work to maintain its GA status. 2656:
This article was last reviewed in 2009. Since then, it has not been fully maintained to GA standards. There are a number of areas lacking citations, and in general the article gives very little coverage post CP acquisition. There is clearly still history missing, as I found this from less than a year

I tried to get to this yesterday but family troubles popped up. Well, "best laid plans of mice and men" and all that, so I'm working on this a bit today. I've combined two lead section paragraphs to reduce it to four paragraphs; if anything is removed from them, I would think that the only thing we

The CP has agreed to acquire the DM&E, but has not yet done so. The contract has yet to be signed, and the STB has to give its approval for the merger, which might take some time. In the meantime the DM&E will continue to operate independently, and the shares being purchased by the CP will

Greetings, Apologies in advance. I am a fellow Wyomingite and Wikipedian, and I have found several outdated citations with outside links in this article that I believe I can help with. So far I have found an updated link for the first citation (at the end of the third paragraph). However, I have

A lot of these are easy to fix, and I can fix them if the the more complicated issues are dealt with. As I mentioned above, I'll do a copyedit of the article if the above issues are addressed. I think it's important to point out obvious errors as it allows current editors of the article as well as
1650:. I'll contact all of the main contributors and related WikiProjects so the workload can be shared. Once the above issues are addressed, I'll help do a final copyedit of the article. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. --Happy editing! 1366:
After rereading your comment, here's another comment. It's not the "largest new railway" is the "largest new railway construction" with the emphasis on the construction of new track (nearly 300 miles of new right-of-way and track). The only similar projects that I can think of off the top of my
1567:"During the final negotiations over the Fiscal Year 2006 federal transportation bill, Senator John Thune, a Republican from South Dakota, tacked on language that would dramatically expand a federal loan program and help DM&E get a $ 2.5 billion government loan." Needs a citation. 1716:
This week has proven much busier for me in real life than I expected. Today and tomorrow I am participating in a local Relay for Life to benefit the American Cancer Society so I'll be offline to finish off this week, but I'm setting aside time on Sunday to work on this.
1557:"One resident summed up the problem saying that if the railroad didn't go through the city, "it would just go through someone else's place" in the country." Contractions should not be included in articles unless used in quotes. The quote needs a citation as well. 1876:
Point 9 - this came from, guess where, the same article as points 8 and 10. I've reworded it to avoid the problem and cited the quote. I'm sure a look through the article history will show us who we need to help with style guidelines on quoting articles.
1589:"Kevin Schieffer, president and chief executive officer of the DM&E, says arguments against the project have no merit. "We are very solid financially", he adds. "The project has overwhelming support throughout our entire region."" Needs a citation. 1801:
Point 6 - that's not a contraction, it's a possessive. It's from the same article as the extended quote, as you can read in the new ref that I just added where the article was reprinted in a book that is available on limited preview at Google Books.
1449:
Mistyben, we do believe it; we read the whole thing as well as other articles about the purchase agreement and found that DM&E and IC&E will continue operating independently until the purchase is approved by the STB and finalized.
153: 1604:"In its first twenty years of operations, the railroad's revenues had increased more than tenfold, from US$ 22 million..." The wikilinks for the dollars should be introduced earlier in the article, not here. Fix all other occurrences. 1749:
One week later, some progress was made, so I'll leave the article on hold for another week. Try and get to the bigger issues and I can help with the copyediting. I'm watching this page to keep up with the progress. --Happy editing!
1950:
I struck an addressed issue. I will leave the article on hold for one more week for the remaining issues. Address the expansion/update issues and I'll help with the rest. Let me know if you have any questions. --Happy editing!
1468:
It took a year, but the acquisition is now complete and CP assumed control. There may still be a few sentences in the article that need updating, but it is now appropriate to list DM&E as defunct with CP as the successor.
279: 1645:
I will leave the article on hold for seven days, but if progress is being made and an extension is needed, one may be given. If no progress is made, the article may be delisted, which can then later be renominated at

not found the way to make the correction to it yet, so I am waiting for an answer from the WP Teahouse and I hope to insert a link to the actual article that will replace the current dead link there. I also ran an

2440: 1523:. I believe the article currently meets the majority of the criteria and should remain listed as a GA. However, in reviewing the article, I have found there are several issues that needs to be addressed. 2556: 336: 2314: 1569:
Well, a citation already in the article covers that so I put a copy of it on that sentence. Unfortunately that sentence seems to be plagiarized from that source and needs to be fixed or something.
147: 1975:
Good work addressing the issues. I went through and addressed the remaining issues, so please review my edits. I believe the article currently meets the criteria and should remain listed as a

Point 11 - the FRA press release cites 2.3, so I've updated the other amount to read "up to 2.5" instead. In this case, I think the FRA number is more reliable than the US News number.
1537:
There are a few external links included within the text of the article. These should either be converted to a citation (if it is a reliable source) or moved to the external links section.
1856:
Point 10 - this was also a direct quote from the same article as referenced in point 8. I've reworded this and added the ref along with another direct quote I found just below it.

Does the citation at the end of the "Expansion plans" section cover all of the details of the prior two paragraphs? If so, it should also be added to them as well.

If I read the article correctly, the expansion has yet not happened, and indeed the article ends by stating CP has abandoned the plans.
