Castle Clinton page compromise

Unregistered users can't thank other editors with a quick pat on the back. So I have to do it here. And am happy to. You really reflect what is best about Wikipedia. Striving for the "best possible" encyclopedia, yet still being committed to doing so without trying to *own* it. That's awesome. And rare. 2601:196:180:DC0:B0B1:6C32:B8DE:7403 (talk) 14:46, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

Thanks,. 2601:196:180:DC0:B0B1:6C32:B8DE:7403. I really appreciate it. I'm just trying my best to improve pages - it's a collaborative project, after all - but I'm glad I could help.
And I appreciate your edits on the Castle Clinton page as well; without your input, I never would have realized that people needed to scroll quite a bit to read about the structure's current use. Even feedback like this is extremely helpful, as I can keep these considerations in mind when I add info to similar articles. – Epicgenius (talk) 15:04, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

Question re LIRR accidents

Hey, Epicgenius,

I agree that any accident with no injuries is likely minor and won't have lasting implications. However, I believe that major equipment loss and other longer-term consequences may still qualify an accident for inclusion in Long Island Rail Road#Accidents and incidents, and I'd like to know what you think.

Namely, I was thinking of substantiating the entry you removed for the May 25, 2019 Speonk derailment (as service disruptions occurred on one of the most-traveled weekends of the year, a long-term criminal investigation followed, and DM 511 was damaged beyond repair) and adding the incident at Huntington on October 23, 2000 (which injured no people, but incinerated DM 503, and led to a full-scale investigation and the entire dual-mode fleet being repaired amid fire safety concerns) [7]. Thanks, Complex/Rational 13:14, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

@ComplexRational, thanks for mentioning this. Generally I'd mention accidents only if people were injured/killed or if there was fleet damage, but I didn't realize that the May 25 derailment actually led to 511 being severely damaged. I think adding the 2000 derailment would also be reasonable in that case. – Epicgenius (talk) 14:09, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
Cool, I added both to the article now. Complex/Rational 15:26, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

FA opinion again

A GOCE copyedit of Interstate 40 in Tennessee was completed, which cut about 700 words from the article, this shortening the route description. I have also split the Music Highway section into its own section, and added two paragraphs about honorary names to this section. But the article is still shorter than it was before the copyedit. Would you support promoting it to FA status if I were to nominate now? Bneu2013 (talk) 04:31, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

@Bneu2013, I'd have to look at the rest of the article before making any definite judgment, but I'd lean toward supporting I-40 (TN) at FAC. – Epicgenius (talk) 13:14, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Ok. I think I'm going to try again very soon; I just want to make sure the nomination doesn't get drug out again. Bneu2013 (talk) 16:28, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
Update - I think I'm going to nominate again later today, FYI. Bneu2013 (talk) 16:35, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

I thought I'd let you know that I have nominated again, hopefully for the last time. I'm hoping that the copyedit will prove an asset, and that I can't get enough supports in a reasonable amount of time to finally get this on the main page. Bneu2013 (talk) 01:11, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

Jones Beach

Pitch Putt Golf Course hasn't been there for at least 10 years lol It is now an unsightly zip line: https://www.wildplay.com/jones-beach Jb1929 (talk) 15:03, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi the golf course was initially flooded by hurricane sandy and then land was Repurposed .. also it appears the omnipotent admins don't like factual information added to articles. If you can help, Something should be mentioned about the fairly new zip line and free Educational Energy & Nature center. There is no copyright on that free public museum brochure and a free state built facility is not a promotion, so have no idea what they are talking about.. not a big deal if you can't , but it's a disservice to the public not having complete factual information available here. thanks for your time. take care Jb1929 (talk) 21:34, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

my story today

Thank you today for CBS Building, "about the only skyscraper designed by Eero Saarinen before his untimely death in 1961. As the name may suggest, the building was constructed for CBS, which owned it until two years ago. Saarinen wanted to make it the "simplest skyscraper statement in New York"; the building's nickname, Black Rock, comes from the fact that its dark-gray granite facade resembles a solid wall from a certain angle. Nonetheless, the CBS Building had innovative features for its time, including a reinforced-concrete frame (the first in a post-war skyscraper in NYC) and a sunken plaza surrounding it."! - Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:02, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

Next FA?

I see you did some cat tweaking on American Bank Note Company Printing Plant. That was one of my first GAs. I'm thinking when I get done with Fleetwood Park Racetrack, I might take a shot at getting the printing plant up to FA standards. It's got a long way to go on that, however. RoySmith (talk) 17:25, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

@RoySmith, yeah, I think it would be worth expanding the American Bank Note Company Plant article to FA status. The article is already in pretty good shape, and it definitely has FAC potential, considering how much info exists about that facility. – Epicgenius (talk) 17:31, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
