GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
It is reasonably well written. a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists): It is factually accurate and verifiable. a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism): It is broad in its coverage. a (major aspects): b (focused): It follows the neutral point of view policy. Fair representation without bias: It is stable. No edit wars, etc.: It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate. a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall: Pass/Fail:

  • I am a bit confused about this. User:Sammi Brie/Commas in sentences indicates that you need a comma when the two parts can stand as two sentences, i.e. "The new line carried 27,000 passengers for free until 6 p.m. / Another 125,000 passengers paid to ride the subway in the six-hour period that followed."

• By 2001, the NYCTA planned to temporarily reopen the station for the subway's 100th anniversary in 2004. The station was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. For the subway's Centennial Celebration the same year some sameness in sentence endings; consider reflow
