It is reasonably well written. a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists): It is factually accurate and verifiable, as shown by a source spot-check. a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism): It is broad in its coverage. a (major aspects): b (focused): It follows the neutral point of view policy. Fair representation without bias: It is stable. No edit wars, etc.: It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate. a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall: Pass/Fail:

This little dynamo is pretty much set—sure, it's a bit shorter than the average GA, but it is also adequate to cover the station's key aspects. I have one question about content that the article does not answer, nor does a search. Ping me when you've replied to it. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 07:43, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

Copy changes

What is a Mattar tree? Searches send me back to this article.
- That I also have zero idea. But we have an assortment of local trees anyway.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:39, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I wish I wasn't confused still, but I am, @ZKang123. I found [1] while hunting for anything I could find that was useful. There's also a mosque the road might be named for instead of a tree. It could be a plant name of Malay origin, though. Perhaps a footnote here is merited. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 17:29, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Added hatenote as requested.--ZKang123 (talk) 12:55, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
