Community Transit[edit]
This is the culmination of two years of off-and-on editing and research, all for the local bus transit system I use for my daily commute. This is my first go at a featured content review, so I expect to overhaul and rewrite this article many times. I'm hoping to see this article at TFA for the agency's 40th anniversary on October 4, 2016. SounderBruce 22:10, 15 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comments taking a look now. I will jot down questions below. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 05:22, 29 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Renamed to Community Transit in 1979- the "to" here strikes me as redundant and odd-sounding- Fixed.
SCPTBA Public Transit, nicknamed the "Blue Bus" for its blue livery- is the service nicknamed the blue bus or are the buses of the service nicknamed blue buses..?- The service was nicknamed, so I've clarified it.
Among the most popular lines was Route R14..- makes it sound like folks are riding buses for fun - would not "Among the busiest lines was Route R14" be more accurate?- Reworded.
Any notable major accidents with this company's buses?- There have been several accidents, but all were minor (with at most 1 or 2 fatalities). There is one that attracted a bit of controversy and led to possible charges for the driver, but it was a Sound Transit bus that was operated by Community Transit's subcontractor First Transit. Not really worth mentioning here.
ok then, support on comprehensiveness and prose. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:37, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Closing comment -- Sorry but with no comments for almost a fortnight this review seems to have stalled so I'll be archiving it shortly. I know you didn't have much luck with PR last time so I'd understand if you didn't feel like trying it again; perhaps seek input on the article talk page from transport-related projects/editors and then, if you choose to renominate here after the standard two-week hiatus, you can ping any who did comment (as well as Cas, as the sole reviewer here) to stop by the new FAC nomination.
