Comments
  • The link to the category in the infobox is out of place and should be removed.
  • The date of opening (not just the year) should be in the lead and infobox.
  • The lead is somewhat short, and should contain some more information. At the moment it contains little more than the name. Don't worry about duplicating information from the body.
  • I am somewhat concerned about the prose quality; it tends to read a bit rugged. For instance, "The station is located in Shanghai's Pudong New Area. The Guanglan Road station is located along Zuchongzhi Road near an intersection with Guanglan Road and Shenjiang Road." could be compressed into a single sentence: "The station is located in Shanghai's Pudong New Area, along Zuchongzhi Road near an intersection with Guanglan Road and Shenjiang Road." This says exactly the same, and removes a lot of words.
  • Travel times are fine, but they should not be to the nearest station, but instead to main hubs and/or end stations.
  • Are there any notable institutions that the stations serves, such as secondary schools, colleges, stadiums, large workplaces, government offices or the like? If so, they should be mentioned in the article. Institutions too small to have a Wikipedia article are generally not worth mentioning.
  • What service is offered to the station? How many departures per hour/headway?
  • Is there transfer to ground transport? If so, please mention it.
  • For external links to be included, they should give information which would supplement the article, given that it reached FA, or be official sites. I do not see how either of the provided links do so.
  • The article is not a stub.

Overall there is little issues with the article, some of the points are simply questions, while most of the points are just minor issues. Arsenikk (talk) 22:01, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the late reply. Could you please add the information on the bus transfers and remove the links, and I will pass the article. Arsenikk (talk) 20:01, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There is part of the first section which is now unreferenced. If you can't find reliable sources, they that information should be removed (it doesn't seem too vital). Also, I agree with Deryck (below) that the title of the first section seems a bit odd. Personally when I make smaller station articles, I use the sections "history", "facilities" and "services" (in that order), although that is not the only way to do it. See for instance Forskningsparken (station) and Mortensrud (station). Arsenikk (talk) 00:23, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks a lot for the tip; it is not mentioned on any WikiProject standards that I could find! The article looks a bit more organized now. Thanks too to Deryck for the suggestion. (I was sort of taking my layout from Anderson Street (NJT station) — PCB 03:43, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Congratulations with a good article. I've written about 20 station articles myself, and eventually I found a style which works for me. Don't worry about experimenting a bit to begin with, as you'll soon find out what works for you. Arsenikk (talk) 09:33, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Awkward comment, not too crucial to GA by Deryck

The section heading "Location and station layout" doesn't quite summarise what's in the section because there's a lot on train timetables. May I suggest moving the part about timetables into a subsection or a separate section? --Deryck C. 23:32, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
