Footnote 8 is a dead link.
- It is reasonably well written.
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- There are a couple of reference problems listed below.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- Rename the extension section to "Future." I think that would make more sense.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- It follows the neutral point of view policy.
- Fair representation without bias:
- Fair representation without bias:
- It is stable.
- No edit wars, etc.:
- No edit wars, etc.:
- It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
- a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
- a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
- Overall:
- Pass/Fail:
- I will put the article on hold for the prose and reference issues.
- Pass/Fail:
- Lead and Infobox
- The list of stations in non-peak hours is too detailed and should be removed.
- Can you explain the 18-month trial program (and perhaps mention it outside the lead)?
- The last sentence should be moved to the Route section, or else it should be referenced elsewhere.
- Can you use other words other than "peak"? - official WMATA term, now defined in notes.
- The date and length need to be referenced in the infobox.
- History
- The first paragraph is well-written, however, it is almost an exact copy of other articles. I think it should be rephrased.
- When was the original route planned? You never said. - I think it says 1967, which is much later than the rest of the system.
- Almost the entire history outside the first sentence is unreferenced.
- WMATA needs to be spelled out somewhere like this: Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA)
- Extension to Fort Totten
- Need more than one reference for the paragraph.
- Find a better word for "off-peak", it is used very often.
- Route
- I believe Kings Highway needs an apostrophe. - All of my sources show no apostrophe.
- Much of it is unreferenced. The paragraph needs more inline citations within the paragraph, not just after it.
- There is a MOSBOLD violation: the bold words should not be bold, they do not redirect here.
- List of stations
- Again, find another word for peak.
- I believe the headings like "Stations served during all operating hours" needs to be a third-level heading.
- Move the paragraph about the trains to the Route section.
- References
- Footnote 1 needs an accessdate.
- Dates are inconsistent.
- You need an author for Footnote 13 and 14.
- Spell out WMATA.
- Yes, it needs to be spelled out every time even though it is defined in the body. --PCB 21:53, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
