GA review (see here for criteria)

---

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   I would go through the article and check for overlinking, terms should only be linked the first time they are mentioned in the prose (not including the lead).

   I've removed links to the stadium articles from the layout section as well as SODO Station and SoDo in the history section, but I think the repeated use of island platform, at-grade and pocket track in the history and layout sections is necessary.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   • "Construction of Stadium Station began with the laying of the first rails for Central Link, between Holgate and Lander streets", when did this happen?
     •  Added month and year from the referenced press release.
   • Does the station have extra service for sporting events? If so, this should be mentioned in the Services section.
     • Sound Transit doesn't mention whether or not it runs extra service during sporting events on its website.

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. 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):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

I will place the article on hold for a few concerns to be addressed. Dough4872 04:40, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

Unfortunately I won't have access to a working PC for a while (typing this from a 7" tablet), so it might take a few days for the other concerns to be addressed. SounderBruce 22:23, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Addressed the overlinking, @Dough4872:. SounderBruce 21:33, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

I will now pass the article. Dough4872 01:14, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
