There has been a major change to the ESI, as indicated here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/mta-runs-low-on-funds-cuts-back-station-upgrade-program-1522747921.

Hello. I see that you have two DYKs awaiting approval. I have one, as well (Ford Piquette Avenue Plant). I am not required to do a QPQ because I have less than five DYKs currently, but I'll gladly review your DYK for the BMT Franklin Avenue Line if you review mine. Also, FYI, there might be an issue with your other DYK for the History of the Second Avenue Subway, as the source for the first hook did not appear to be in the article. During my last DYK, everyone was very persnickety about the hook being as verbatim to the related text in the article, so I would suggest making note of that. Also pinging @Kew Gardens 613:, since he is a co-contributor to these DYKs. Jackdude101 talk cont 23:27, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
Hi I am new to Wikipedia and this is my first talk message, not sure if I do this the correct wayJag9889 (talk) 10:38, 7 April 2018 (UTC). For the Harlem River, you added existing photos to the Crossing list. Do you mind, if I replace these with my images taken by kayak? I will not change any of your photos unless you give me your okay. Thanks! (Jag9889 (talk) 10:38, 7 April 2018 (UTC))

That looks like it was a lot of fun. You both did a great job! How long did it take to plan? - PaulT+/C 13:11, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi, you said you would find better sources for David Meade. Is there any sources I should replace? If so, which ones and which sentences I should add the new source (also please link me the sources in diffs for all sentences that needs better ones)? Also, how does the date formats on the articles look? LovelyGirl7 talk 18:02, 18 April 2018 (UTC)
Hi @Epicgenius:, I just want to let you know I made changes to the primary sources, adding quotes to the sources. What’s your thoughts regarding the self-published sources? Also, do you believe if I re-nominate it for FA, do you believe it will pass (I would love you to review it again when and if I do so again)? I would love these answered in a bullet/number list. LovelyGirl7 talk 12:50, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
Meade appeared on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory in January 2017 and was interviewed by the American national television and radio program Glenn Beck Program in September 2017.). Although refs 14 and 15 are primary sources, they show directly that Meade was interviewed by these programs.
but the month passed, and his predictions failed again, doesn't actually support the content. Obviously the month passed without anything happening, so I don't think you really need to mention that. Maybe something like "He also unsuccessfully predicted that the 7-year tribulation would start on 15 October and stated "[t]hat's when the action starts" ", or "...incorrectly predicted..."
He called several officials in the United Nations "crazy people" after voting against the United States' decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, followed by the blood moon eclipse 42 days lateris confusing. Was this insult followed by the prediction of something happening based on the blood moon eclipse?
On April 19, 2018, he stated that reports saying that he predicted the world would be destroyed on 23 April were "fake news", but that the rapture—but not the end of the world—would take place on an unspecified date between May and December 2018. The rapture would bring in seven years of “tribulation”, followed by 1,000 years of “peace and prosperity”, before the world is destroyed.If the predictions are still coming in, I don't think this would meet the stability criterion for a Featured Article - at least not until his real identity is shown, or the predictions slow down. More to the point, this article's issues are not just about referencing, but also stability.
Thank for making an edit to the Sundrome article. That building was plain on the outside but nice from the inside. The Wikipedia article is not very good but I plan to greatly improve it over the next few months, a little at a time.
I am sure that someone in this big planet has a photo that they are willing to donate to Wikipedia. If not, there are certainly links to photos which I can put. I tend not to like to "steal" a lot of non-free use especially for something like this, which used to be an easily accessible building. Vanguard10 (talk) 18:08, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
Hello! I see that you added a lot of information to the article about Barren Island in Brooklyn. I have just finished a history master's thesis on the island for Brooklyn College, and have made a couple of edits. Anyway, I just wanted to touch base because interest in and knowledge of Barren Island is rare! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Barren Islander (talk • contribs) 18:41, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

As you know, I nominated the Staten Island Railway article to be a featured article. While you can't review it, could you possibly see if anything in the article should be fixed? Thanks. One more thing. Should this file File:NYCS-bull-trans-SIR-2016-2017.png be smaller (or a lower resolution) because it is the property of the MTA? Thanks. Stay well.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 23:26, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
