I am bringing this article to GAR because:

• The Communities served section is full of OR which has existed since the article became a GA. (2b)
• There is a lack of lead coverage of parts of the article. (1b)
• Another user mentioned that the article lacks clarity or assumes a local knowledge in some parts. (1a)

This is my first GAR, so I apologize if I made any mistakes here. There may also be some problems I have not mentioned (I think the Facilities section may have an unnecessary detail (3b) problem, but I'm not sure). Username⁶⁸⁹² 01:18, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Kingsif

I'll add comments when I see things. Something to consider is that this is a short article, and how does it compare to similar ones. Not every station in North America is going to have or warrant the level of coverage of Grand Central Terminal, but it's currently comparable size-wise with the English Moncloa (Madrid Metro) article, something you'd expect to have far less. Without being an expert, I would do some research on the Chester station myself to see if the level of coverage reflected media coverage (and will do if nobody beats me to it!)

Comments from Epicgenius

Here are some things I noticed.

• The lead is too short. (criterion 1B)
• The lead is also disorganized. For instance, the fact that WiFi is available here comes before the fact that this station has one exit. (3A)
• The "facilities" section probably needs to be more detailed, e.g. describe how many tracks and platforms are in the station. That's pretty important info, yet the only mention of this is in the infobox, where it is not sourced. (3A)
• And the description of the tiles may be too detailed. (3B)
• It's optional, but I think the exits may be combined under one header.
• The "communities served" section is not really detailed. As an outsider I wouldn't know where these communities are. Some context may be needed for this. (3A)
• This is the only station in Toronto with no TTC bus service during the day. - This seems to be trivia, particularly the first part. epicgenius (talk) 02:46, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
