Reviewer: Zanimum (talk · contribs) 21:54, 4 June 2014 (UTC) This is too weird a subject not to review. How many times can one review an article about a garbage museum? -- Zanimum (talk) 21:54, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This sounds like it was (and could be again, if it got a few hundred more in funding) a great institution. Sad that it's not running currently.

Passing "Lead", "References", "External links".

Operation

"which transported recyclables" is the SCRC itself no longer active?

Exhibits

"Educational exhibits focus on the benefits of recycling soda cans reduces air pollution and water pollution than mining bauxite." I think you need a comma or two, and a joining word or two. This all seems to run into itself.
Sorry, am I reading that correct, that someone worked 9 months on a $2000 project? Was that just $2000 for the labour? Or just the materials? If that's both labour and materials, that's crazy.

Closure

"funded two 2.5 full-time positions" doesn't make sense. 2 makes sense, 2.5 makes sense not 2 2.5.

You had a cat for the disestablishment, I've added one for the establishment. -- Zanimum (talk) 12:37, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've fixed these things myself. Passing. -- Zanimum (talk) 23:57, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
