Talk:712 Fifth Avenue

Tenants

An editor is insisting on including "AllTheRooms" on the list of tenants of this building. While I do not doubt that they are located there, lists of tenants should be dealt with exactly as any other list of notables is: if the subject doesn't have a Wikipedia article, they are not notable, and therefore should not be on the list. Without this criteria, we would end up listing the hundreds of tenants located in any large NYC office building. What is the consensus here? BMK (talk) 00:18, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

A look at the essay WP:TENANTS is helpful, although is it geared to shopping centers. BMK (talk) 00:19, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

• These two articles are new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and the articles are neutral. 712 Fifth Avenue has no problems but the Coty Building has close paragraphing issues as indicated by Earwig, and the paragraph starting "In 1986" needs to be rewritten. Two QPQs have been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:34, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

• @Cwmhiraeth: Thanks for the review. I have removed the close paraphrasing for the Coty article. epicgenius (talk) 00:41, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

• Thank you, that seems fine. Passing this now as the image is suitably licensed and the nomination meets the DYK criteria. Any of the hooks could be used. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:27, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
