• ... that Redcliffe railway station, which opens today, has been renamed twice since 2016? Source: Two of the stations on the Forrestfield-Airport Link have been renamed - Belmont (formerly Airport West) Locals have voted overwhelmingly in favour of renaming the first new station on the METRONET Forrestfield-Airport Link, Redcliffe.
  • ALT1: ... that the name of Redcliffe railway station, which opens today, was voted on by a survey? Source: The McGowan Government asked the Public Transport Authority to initiate the survey in October in response to community debate over the station's name.
    • ALT1b: ... that the name of Redcliffe railway station was voted on by a survey?
  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Edward N. Hall
  • Comment: I would like to reserve this hook to appear on the date of the station's opening, which is likely within the next few months but has not been set yet. No worries if the date ends up being more than six weeks away, this hook can just run without the specific date. I plan to nominate another article instead in that case.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy compliance:

• Adequate sourcing: - Refs just need to be added to the end of each paragraph
• Neutral:
• Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: The article is new enough, long enough, no significant copyvio on Earwig, and hooks are cited and interesting. The only issue is that sources should be added to the end of each paragraph, but once that's done this nom should be ready for promotion. Date requests can't be more than six weeks in advance, so I added ALT1b in case you want to run it before the opening. BuySomeApples (talk) 05:03, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

@BuySomeApples: It should be ready now. Steelkamp (talk) 06:00, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks @Steelkamp: this one looks ready! BuySomeApples (talk) 20:23, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

Just one thing to do, some miscellaneous copy cleanup. 7-day hold to Steelkamp; ping when done. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 06:06, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

@Sammi Brie: Done. Steelkamp (talk) 06:22, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

Copy changes

CinS means User:Sammi Brie/Commas in sentences.

• The station is one of three stations that were built as part of the Forrestfield–Airport Link project, and is served by Transperth's Airport line services. Remove comma (CinS)
• Construction began in mid-2017 and by June 2018, excavation was complete. Add comma after "mid-2017" because "By 2018, excavation was complete." is a standalone sentence. (CinS)
• It is served by trains every 12 minutes during peak hour, and every 15 minutes outside peak hour and on weekends and public holidays. Remove comma (CinS)
• There are also drop-off bays nearby, and a 500-bay car park approximately 400 metres (1,300 ft) south. Remove comma (CinS)
• Change "81%" to "81 percent" MOS:PERCENT
• Excavation started in early 2018 and was completed by June 2018, Perhaps Excavation started in early 2018 and was completed by June,
• Remove the hyphen from early-August

Also check for some MOS:SPELL09 fixes throughout.
