I'll take a look. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 00:20, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
- The history section of the lead can definitely be longer than a sentence.
Done
- Can the track layout show the non-revenue tracks?
- And be in the Station layout section instead?
Done The layout does already show the non-revenue tracks, though. epicgenius (talk) 21:05, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Can you add the pages of ref 5 that are used for this article? Issuu is just awful to use or navigate.
Done
- Refs 7 and 8 need
|subscription=yes
.Done but because
|subscription=yes
is outdated,|url-access=subscription
is used instead. epicgenius (talk) 02:10, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
- Full citations for references in ref 10.
Done
- Renovations should be mentioned in the history section.
Done
- "entrances/exits" I would switch the / for "and".
Done
- Same thing for "located at Wall Street/Broadway and Wall Street/William Street," maybe Wall Street at Broadway and Wall Street at William Street?
Done
- "Two staircases to Broad Street between Exchange Place and Beaver Street;[15] a third on the southwestern corner of Exchange Place and Broad Street was closed and sealed." Replace the semicolon with "and" if all three were closed.
- The first two are open. epicgenius (talk) 21:05, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- "exit-only staircase here" Here as in the station?
- Any updates to the proposed elevators?
- Not as of now. epicgenius (talk) 21:05, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
That should be it. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 06:06, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

- ALT2:... that an extension of the New York City Subway to Broad Street station was three times the normal cost of construction at the time, due to its location in the Financial District? Source: Bulletin 2016 p. 1
Improved to Good Article status by Kew Gardens 613 (talk). Nominated by Epicgenius (talk) at 13:44, 5 May 2020 (UTC).
on ALT0 (couldn't access),
on ALT1 and ALT2. Article was promoted to GA status within 7 days of nomination, article is long enough and compliant with policy. Hooks are within the length guidelines, interesting, and supported by the citations. No preference on which hook used. Hog Farm (talk) 19:17, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
