Opening statement
editHello, and come what may from this review, thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. During the review, I may make copyedits, which I will limit to spelling correction and minor changes to punctuation (removal of double spaces and such). I will only make substantive edits that change the flow and structure of the prose if I previously suggested and it is necessary. The Nominator(s) should understand that I am a grammar pedant, and I will nitpick in the interest of prose quality. For responding to my comments, please use Done, Fixed, Added, Not done, Doing..., or Removed, followed by any comment you'd like to make. I will be crossing out my comments as they are redressed, and only mine. A detailed, section-by-section review will follow. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 02:51, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Livonia Avenue Line[2]:129
This name only occurs once more in the article, withIn August 1919, work on the Livonia Avenue Line was suspended [...]
.Utica Avenue in Crown Heights and continues to New Lots Avenue in East New York.
"Utica Avenue" and "New Lots Avenue" should be followed by "station" to distinguish them from the neighborhoods they're located in.- Done by @Epicgenius:--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 22:31, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
except for a short section above East 98th Street
What neighborhood is E. 98th in?- Done by @Epicgenius:--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 22:31, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

History
edit
This line was constructed as Route 31 Livonia Avenue Route.
Too many "Route"s?- Clarified. Done--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 13:30, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
its locations was not yet decided upon.
Were?[...] the three bids were rejected June 22. On June 8, [...]
I'm confused. Firstly, on June 22. Secondly, June 8, and not 28th?A new contract for the construction of the line was awarded by the PSC on January 17, 1917.
To whom?- I clarified this. Done--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 13:18, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
Why is May 1921 after May 1922 in "Opening"?[...] with a two-car train operating on back and forth along [...]
Should this "on" be here?"Expansion plans" feels incomplete. What was the result of the 1951 study? Why all the "would"s in the third paragraph?- @Vami IV: That article is all there is on the web about the study. I haven't found anything else. I dealt with the "would"s.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 18:47, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
Did the US Dept. of Transportation approve the NYCTA's grant request? A "yes" is implied by the opening of bidding by contractors, but not outright said.Paragraphs 3 and 4 of "Station renovations" both begin withAs part of [the MTA's [year] funding program, funding was provided...]

Extent and service
edit
- Consider "Route and service" for the title.
Can you discuss the line's stock and equipment here?- @Vami IV and Epicgenius: Rolling stock is assigned by service, not by line, so I do not think it would make sense to include it here.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 12:34, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
- This is correct. Lines are just the physical tracks and infrastructure, and services are the travel patterns that use rolling stock. See New York City Subway nomenclature for the explanation. epicgenius (talk) 13:14, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
- Understood, marked off. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 02:38, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
