@Epicgenius: Promoted to GA on 8 May, well referenced, no obvious close paraphrasing, QPQ done. The original hook is far more interesting than the alt, and is cited in the lead. However, where the body states "In 2014, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) ranked the B46 route as the "most dangerous and crime-ridden bus route" in terms of fare evasion and on-bus assaults", the reference given ([1]) does not support this at all and only mentions the B46 bus in a caption, not in the main text of the source. Could you replace this reference? 97198 (talk) 03:55, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
- 97198, thanks for the review. I have removed the Metro ref. epicgenius (talk) 13:42, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
