1 (New York City Subway service) was a good article candidate, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. Once the objections listed below are addressed, the article can be renominated. You may also seek a review of the decision if you feel there was a mistake.
Date of review: 18 March 2007 |
[edit] Addresses of stations
Why are the addresses of the stations not listed on the maps?
In Washington, DC the Metro maps all list the address or intersection not just the street name.
There is most definitely a niche market for directories of street address of train and subway stations all over the US.
- I'm going to assume that you are referring to the MTA New York City Subway map. For one thing, stations in New York City do not have addresses, per se; most subway entrances are not part of buildings, but are in the middle of sidewalks. In addition, the subway map is already crowded enough as it is without having the intersection listed under every station. Each line on the map typically has the street it runs under/over noted (e.g., the IND Sixth Avenue Line has "6 Av" noted along its length); this is sufficient to identify the location of the great majority of stations. —Larry V 01:46, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Station service listing
If you have seen the shuttle station listings, I have reconfigured them. I will be doing the same to the regular subway service articles, starting with this one. The MTA does this with their information. (example). --imdanumber1 20:28, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Good Article NominationGood MORNING/AFTERNOON/EVENING (GMT time); I have reviewed this article on {{subst:CURRENTDATE}} in accordance with the Good Article (GA) criteria. I have concluded that, in my opinion, the article has failed one or more categories and is therefore denied GA status. In order to provide constructive criticism, I have below listed one or more of my reasons for failing the article, beside the relevant criteria title; this should be taken as advice for improvement, rather than a list of reasons for failing.
My condolences to the lead editors - your hard work has been informally recognised; just keep it up, and do not be disheartened! Feel free to renominate the article when the above improvements have been made, or alternatively seek a GA Review or discuss my decision at my talk page if you believe I have been misguided. Sincerest regards, |
