 * GA review (see here for criteria)

 The article currently has several issues before it can be promoted to GA. Therefore, I will have to fail it. The article may be renominated once these issues are fixed.  Dough 48  72  04:29, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * The article contains several stubby one- and two-sentence paragraphs that should be combined. In addition, there are several awkward sentences and phrases such as "It was the system's first in-fill station (a new station between existing stations).", "There it enters a tunnel and curves west to Rockville Pike at White Flint.", "The line runs in this manner northwest across the District-Maryland line,", and The station list would also appear better in table format.
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Large sections of the history are unreferenced as is the chronology table and station list. The sentence "There is a maintenance yard between the Florida Avenue and Rhode Island Avenue stops." also needs a citation.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * A section detailing the services along the line should be added to the articles. In addition, the lead does not adequately summarize the contents of the article.
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) 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):
 * The article does have an image, so it passes this criteria. However, there are more images on Commons that could be added to this article.
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
