[edit]
  • is there any passenger numbers for this station?
    • There's only vague numbers from old newspaper articles. Data from the bus agency only breaks it down by route, not station/stop.
  • Also please include the route map of the DSTT in the infobox.
    • Why would this be necessary? For the most part, other station articles don't include route maps.
  • "Convention place is a bus station in the dstt". I'm pretty sure the photo shows the station in open air. Could you clarify?
    • It's one of the portals of the tunnel; added some clarification in the Station layout section.
  • "In 1984, a site one block south of the station..." is the station mentioned the current station or the planned one.
    • Fixed.
  • "excavation of the... and was temporarily backfilled during the Christmas shopping season" Why?
    • Added the main reason (automobile access)
  • "construction of the exit ramp to olive way and electrical substation..." could you fix the sentence?
    • Fixed.
  • could you do away with the station layout diagram as per WP:NOTGUIDE?
    • Station layout diagrams are pretty standard across station articles, including those that passed FAC and GAN. I don't think it violates NOTGUIDE any more than a list of cities in a state or a list of sculptures in a museum would.
      • see this
        • I don't see how a short discussion for a local project would justify removing the table here. It should be discussed at WT:TRAINS or another venue with a global audience (or at least at the national level, e.g. WP:USSTATION) to establish standards.

          • In this case it can be kept, but should be removed once I get consensus for it to be removed.
  • art and architecture-> could you only focus on architecture in the station and not the surrounding?
    • The plaza is part of the station.
  • Light and power poles......written by Seattle high school students. Please town down as it is starting to sound promotional.
    • The first part is a simple description and the second part is a valid credit. I don't see how these are un-encyclopedic or can be considered straight advertising.

Sorry for the delay in the review as I had some last minute stuff to do. I have identified some issues in the article, and you'll have 7 days to fix them.1.02 editor (C651 set 217/218) 00:16, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@1.02 editor: Fixed some of the points you raised. I left notes where I disagreed, given my prior experience with station FAs/GAs. SounderBruce 00:41, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
