New York City Subway edit

Nominator(s): RES2773 (talk) 05:01, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about the New York City subway system. Since its last nomination over ten years ago, many improvements have been made to improve this page. It currently has "Good Article" status. Please let me know what you think. RES2773 (talk) 05:01, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think the article needs a lot more detail work, e.g. many references are lacking information, and over four hundred for an article of this size is excessive. Alt text is missing on nearly every image, and there are plenty of dead links. These would be good starting tasks. $ɱ$ (talk) · vbm · coi) 05:07, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Coord note -- I don't see any edits to this article by the nominator and, per FAC instructions, familiarity with the article and its sources is a pre-req so as to properly field comments and criticism. I'll therefore be archiving it shortly. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 06:40, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
