• Things in the infobox either not mentioned elsewhere and/or not referenced:
  • Zip code.
  • Bx19
  • Short line bus 208
  • Ridership rank.
    • Will fix these. epicgenius (talk) 00:31, 11 April 2020 (UTC)  Done. I have hidden the ZIP Code because there are three of them, and short line bus because it's not operating. epicgenius (talk) 14:44, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
• Decrease 41.9% from when? The previous year?
  • Yes. Should I add this to the infobox? epicgenius (talk) 00:31, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
    • Or in the main prose where it ought to be mentioned perhaps? The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 10:45, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
      •  Done Technically, this is only because of the station closure that the station suffered a large decrease in ridership. epicgenius (talk) 14:44, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
• Lead feels a little brief for an article of this size.
  •  Done Expanded a little.
    • Still looks a little odd with such a short opening paragraph... The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 10:45, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
      •  Added more. epicgenius (talk) 14:44, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
• "With ... within" "planned ... plans", a little repetitive.
  •  Done
• "take shuttle buses, the M7 or the M102." potentially confusing, what about "take the M7 or the M102 shuttle buses."?
  • These are three routes. So I reordered these. epicgenius (talk) 00:31, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
• "This was done to correct " don't need "done".
  •  Removed
• Explain what MTA is before using the abbreviation.
  •  Done
• Likewise NYCT.
  •  Done
• Station layout - side platform is overlinked, Entrance/Exit is just Entrance/exit, Street Level is just Street level.
  •  Done
• "9 cars to 10 cars " nine to ten cars.
  •  Done
• "The artwork consists o" -> "It consists.."
  •  Done
• " 142nd Street Junction" and "IRT White Plains Road Line" are overlinked.
  •  Done
• Note A appears unreferenced.
  •  Removed as it is trivia. epicgenius (talk) 00:31, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
• Spaced hyphens should be en-dashes.
  •  Done
• Avoid SHOUTING in the ref titles (e.g. ref 6)
  •  Done
• Ref 26 has no publisher/website info. Check others.
• "mta.info. Metropolitan Transportation Authority", this is used several times, "Metropolitan Transportation Authority" is linked once, on the last occasion. Check your linking methodology in the references in toto.
  • Hopefully fixed. epicgenius (talk) 00:31, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

That's it for a first pass. On hold. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 11:18, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

• @The Rambling Man: Thanks. These have been addressed, except for the infobox stuff, which I'll get to later, since it's quite late for me right now. epicgenius (talk) 00:31, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
  • No worries, a couple of responses above, ping me when you're done. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 10:45, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
    • @The Rambling Man: Thanks, I have done these. epicgenius (talk) 14:44, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
      • All good, promoting. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:45, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
