My take on this page: it meets most of the GA criteria, bar a few sentences which lack citations. The sentences requiring citations have been tagged with the citation needed template. The page seems ready to be considered a GA, but these should be resolved first before I can safely pass this page's review. Semi-auto (talk) 08:36, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Semi-auto: Hey, thanks alot for reviewing the Penang article! As per your recommendations, I have added references.
  • A resident of Penang is colloquially known as a Penangite or Penang Lâng (in Penang Hokkien).  Done
Comment: I am unable to find any reliable evidence that a resident of Penang is called Penangkaran in Tamil, hence I omitted that part of the prose for the lack of citation.
  • The Port's strategic location enabled it to service not just northern Malaysia, but also southern Thailand.  Done
  • ... free-of-charge transit services within the George Town city centre and its adjacent suburb of Pulau Tikus, known as CAT (Central Area Transit) and PTL (Pulau Tikus Loop) respectively.  Done
  • The SPICE Arena is also one of the major venues in Penang for meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (MICE).  Done
Do let me know of other methods to improve this article. Thanks again. Vnonymous (talk) 15:54, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
