Improved to Good Article status by Epicgenius (talk) and Tdorante10 (talk). Nominated by Epicgenius (talk) at 03:33, 28 September 2019 (UTC).
- @Epicgenius: Another very well researched NYC article! Recent GA, long enough, well referenced, and no obvious close paraphrasing from Earwig or a spot-check of non-text sources. For the first hook, the URL for the reference supporting the power system ([1]) appears to be dead; can you replace it? For the second hook, I think it would be more accurate to say "unaccompanied teenagers" for accuracy as reflected in the article and the source. Also waiting on a QPQ. 97198 (talk) 09:15, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
- @97198: Thanks for the review. For the first hook I revised the sources to use the source PDF directly, rather than a viewer, which was causing the dead links. For the second hook I added unaccompanied teenagers. epicgenius (talk) 14:10, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
- This link (reference 13 in the article, and linked above) is still dead for me. 97198 (talk) 14:50, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
- @97198: I don't know why but the correct URL uses the word "and" in place of the symbol "&" which is used in the dead URL. It is fixed now. epicgenius (talk) 15:03, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
