Comments

  • What's a "flag stop"?
    •  Done linked.
  • "(B&M) in 1885. The B&M operated" repetitive, why not just "(B&M) in 1885 which operated"?
    •  Done Reworded.
  • " level crossing" link.
    •  Done
  • "a one-story stick style now" maybe Briteng, but feels like there's a word missing, like "construction" after the style.
    •  Done Added the missing word.
  • "The Gloucester Branch opened to" overlinked.
    •  Done
  • I see "wealthy residents " is linked to the section on "notable residents" - do we know they all used this station?
    • On the 8:02 and Beverly Revisited don't refer to specific residents, but state that they were well-used by the wealthy residents. I've added citations that specifically list several of them using the station, and several others arriving on private sidings.
  • "February 1, 1981 due" comma after year.
    •  Done
  • "lasted into" continued into.
    • I think the existing phrasing works fine.
  • "The NTSB determined" don't use acronyms without explaining them first.
    •  Done
  • Salem link?
    •  Done
  • "mini-high platforms " what are those?
    •  Done
  • "was nominated for closures " why plural?
    •  Done Typo fixed.
  • Avoid SHOUTING in ref titles.
    •  Done
  • Spaced hyphen in ref titles should be spaced en-dash.
    •  Done
  • "MBTA - Prides Crossing" also should be an en-dash.
    •  Done
  • Is the "depot" building the same as the station building? If not, it only seems to be mentioned in the lead. If so, I'm confused.
    •  Done Yes, the same building. I've standardized on "station" to clarify
  • Where is "fare zone 5" mentioned or referenced?
    •  Done Ref added.
  • Montserrat is not mentioned in the article other than in the infobox.
    • That's a navigation template, standard for station articles.

That's all I have for now. On hold. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 17:30, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Improved to Good Article status by Pi.1415926535 (talk). Self-nominated at 19:35, 18 March 2021 (UTC).[reply]

- Looks fine to me, but this is my first review. Article improved to Good Article status in last 7 days, length is good, no obvious copyvio issues, nominator has completed QPQ. Both hooks are properly cited. Personally I like the first hook better. It's a fun fact. Wish there was something more about the history of the benches but couldn't fine anything in a quick search. Enjoyed reading the article, as I live in Boston. Might go see the benches sometime. PMCH2 (talk) 01:26, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
