• Lead feels a little brief for me, could you possibly squeeze one or two more sentences in there?

I've dropped a bit more in. Since I've already mentioned the station is relatively infrequently used leading to less coverage in sources, it's probably worth backing that up with some verifiable evidence, which I have now done.

• Euston Road which you have in bold doesn't link here. Is there a plausible redirect at Euston Road tube station that could be created?

Done that, it's verified in several book sources that that's the original name, so as the saying goes - obvious redirect is obvious.

• "It is on the Charing Cross branch..." the station, I guess you mean, as the last "subject" would have been the street.

Done, though I didn't want to have two sentences in succession starting "The station" so I've rejigged that a bit

• "also very close to " can we be objective and say how close?

Good idea. Done

• " Charing Cross, Euston & Hampstead Railway" our article uses "and" rather than ampersand.

Fixed

• "The station's name changed" any reason why?

I don't know, I'm afraid. The source given (Butt 1995) simply says "renamed Warren Street 7 June 1908" with no other context.

• "Charles Holden began refurbishing the station" not personally I assume....

Tweaked

• Are there ridership figures for 2021 available?

I'm not sure they've been published yet. Normally when they are, a flurry of gnoming activity occurs on the articles and my watchlist gets lit up by them. Redrose64 is your best person to talk about this specifically.

• Would have thought ridership would be good to be included in the prose as well. And service, i.e. tph.

See above. As for TPH, I get the impression that Central London tubes have so many (at least 20) that it's irrelevant as you don't need to plan your journey around one turning up.

• "Use in Media" -> media.

Changed back to "Cultural references", per several other GAs. I think DavidCane changed this; not sure why though.

• "movie Death Line, featuring" movie titles are in italics.

Looks like that has been done

• And in BritEng we call them "films".

Top ho, old chap

• "The Victoria Line - A Short" en-dash.

Not sure how to do that, I've run User:GregU/dashes.js over the article but nothing happens.

That's it, on hold. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 16:50, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

Okay, all issues addressed, anything else? Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 16:03, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

I fixed your en-dash, I think the script avoids the {{cite book}} template so you have to do it by hand. Otherwise, all fine, so promoting. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 08:45, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
