Progress
- Every currently-open station has an article with at least a station adjacency table (see below).
- Very few stations even have an introductory paragraph. Finishing these is the task at hand.
- Flinders Street and Spencer Street have good articles, and no work is needed. (Except a picture of Spencer Street)
- The City Loop underground stations have basic articles, as do some premium stations outside the CBD. Beyond intro lines, major stations need more complete articles. This is the next step.
- Eventually, both the open and closed stations ought to have articles like Dennis (see above).
