Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 02:56, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Basic stuff and comments

[edit]
  • Infobox and lead look good.
  • "At the second floor" → "On the second floor"
    • Done.
  • "At the third story" → "In the third story"
    • Done.
  • Is the comma after "plaza to the east" necessary?
  • Remove the commas after "through 1855" and "until 1875".
    • Done.
  • "steam fitters" → "steamfitters" (one word)
    • Done.
  • "oversee construction" → "oversee the construction"
    • Done.
  • "The New York State Federation of Women’s Clubs moved its headquarters to the building's fourth floor, was opened in May 1932." sounds off. Maybe "The New York State Federation of Women's Clubs, which opened in May 1932, moved its headquarters to the building's fourth floor."
  • Throughout the article, search for MOS:CURLY apostrophes and replace them with normal ones.
    • Done.
  • #Critical_reception could use an expansion.
    • Unlike other buildings such as 111 West 57th Street, this building was not noticed as much. Therefore, there are relatively few reviews about this building (I'm not counting stuff like this wordpress blog post). In fact, this building was even misidentified by a prominent architectural writer in the 1990s. Epicgenius (talk) 18:26, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sources
  • New York Post is not reliable per WP:NYPOST.
  • Mark sources from The New York Times with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark sources from The Real Deal with "|url-access=subscription".
  • Try archiving sources (with this tool or manually).
    • My general practice is to only run the tool on sources that are dead/unfit, and I would prefer to continue this practice unless it's necessary to archive all urls. The IABot tool only inserts archive-urls if an archived version of the page has already been made; it doesn't actually use the Internet Archive to save sources, though I would gladly run it on all pages if it did. My other issue is that if, for some reason, a live article that has an archive-url later becomes a dead link, then |url-access=live does not automatically get changed into |url-access=dead. However, if the bot sees a dead link that doesn't have an archive-url (but has an archived version), the bot will add the archive-url to the article. If the link was already dead and was not archived, then the bot would not add anything. Epicgenius (talk) 18:26, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
