 * Symbol voting keep.svg "Jamaica–179th Street (IND Queens Boulevard Line)" was promoted to GA on 15th February so falls within the nomination date range. "IND Queens Boulevard Line" was promoted to GA on 9th February so also falls within the nomination date range. Inline sources provided for the original hook in the first article. As both articles have recently gone through GA process, I am assuming AGF here. Once the second QPQ is done, this is good to go! - Vivvt ( Talk ) 12:15, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
