Revision as of 07:18, 18 July 2018

Stanwood station, H and H Railroad

5x expanded by SounderBruce (talk). Second article written by NearEMPTiness (talk). Nominated by SounderBruce (talk) at 23:09, 7 July 2018 (UTC).

  • long enough (N.B. was still marked as stub in Talk page), new enough, neutral in tone.
  • All non lede paragraphs have references, images in article have appropriate licencing. No apparently copyright violations.
  • QPQ done.
  • I personally find the first hook more interesting than the second one, although I wonder if it's an issue if the "Stanwood station" the title refers to is the one build in 2009 and hence isn't the depot in Stanwood which was serviced by "Dinky". Is this possibly misleading to conflate the two as this hook seems to do?
  • second opinion requested, if possible
  • Same location, thus same article (which can cover both as "a" [train station] in Stanwood). If the depot building was still around, it would likely have been incorporated into this new station's design.
  • Ref 9 refers to it as Template:Tq not "Dinky"; ref 10 also refers to it as Template:Tq. Perhaps the wording in the hook should be changed with the addition of the definite article. I don't have access to Ref 8.
  • Added article.
  • Second hook is cited in article and backed up by refs, but I don't find it super interesting. Plenty of construction projects get delayed over things like this, no?
  • Usually, things like platform height are set in stone by some kind of standard ages before a new station is built. It's a bit of an unusual situation.
  • Symbol question.svg Template:Ping I'd just like the first hook to be clearer, or to have a second opinion that it's actually all right. Umimmak (talk) 03:05, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
  • Template:Ping See my replies above. I have also added a second article about the railroad, which was recently created by another editor. SounderBruce 06:30, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
  • Template:Ping Okay I'm satisfied with those responses. If you are to bold-link Dinky as well (which is long, new, neutral, etc. enough although I have some issues with prose esp. MOS:CURRENT w.r.t. describing its location and I have doubts about the notability; although I will take it on good faith the sources I don't have access to sufficiently demonstrate that, but a second opinion would be nice for the article H and H Railroad.
