From Request for feedback

Hello, I've reworked this article (diff) and was wondering how it can be further improved and promoted from start class. Most of my contributions went into creating the sections on the background of the site. Thank you =) Louis Waweru Talk 14:53, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looking good already, you seem to have things in hand. The only reason it is "Start", is that none of the protects have reassessed it. Click on the project banner templates on the talk page and look for their "assessments" pages. Most will have a list you can add the article to ask for a reassessment. I would be very suprised if any rate it less than B. Might be worth going directly to Good article nomination - some reviewers would pass it, and if not, they should give specific reason why not that you can then fix.Yobmod (talk) 12:11, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Boston Marathon Explosion

There was an explosion April 15th, 2013 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.107.157.245 (talk) 20:21, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

However, the edits were reverted for I guess being unreliably sourced, so I will provide a source here for someone to add later (I'd do it myself, but I can't make league edits on my iPad): [1] Zappa O Mati 22:16, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There are two workers who said they heard an explosion. Rachel Flor (http://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2013/04/15/jfk-library-evacuated-after-explosion-fire-polie-probe-possible-link-marathon-blast/4gQintGxnUv8he2Ul8THLI/story.html) and Paul Yazbeck (http://www.bostonirish.com/news/2013/jfk-library-official-fire-was-not-caused-device). Yet everyone jumped into the "fire related" mantra. Are these workers lying? In my opinion, it's just incredible that even though no one knows who bombed the marathon and the investigation is far from closed, everyone is absolutely sure the library fire is unrelated. How can this possibly be assessed so quickly? No one knows what was damaged inside the library yet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.140.194.198 (talk) 12:55, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Even if there was no explosion (though major media like the Daily Mail continue to report there was) the fact numerous media sources like CNN, based upon early statements by the police, reported an explosion should be included in the article. In any event, are there any reports regarding damage? 70.72.211.35 (talk) 18:52, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
