Hi, I don't know if there's any hotels you've started or expanded still missing from the NYC list in List of hotels in the United States, it's a useful list for finding hotels. I just added The Redbury New York. Great job as usual! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:49, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
On 3 October 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Apollo Theater, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that at New York City's Apollo Theater (pictured), amateurs could be swept off the stage? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Apollo Theater. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Apollo Theater), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
Please be careful when you nominate articles for DYK. As a WikiCup judge I could have disallowed such articles as George S. Bowdoin Stable because you nominated it as being created solely by Transpoman. As the mere nominator, you would not qualify for WikiCup points. However, on inspection I see that it was a joint effort, you both did sufficient work and you should qualify for points. As we reach the end of the contest I would prefer that we have a clear-cut result rather than one that relies on my discretion! Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:01, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

I see that you changed the coordinates for the The Redbury New York from pointing to the wrong building (but at least at the correct level of precision), to point at a different wrong building and at too high a level of precision. Is there anything I can do to help with this? Abductive (reasoning) 03:25, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

Good Evening,
We see that you have been editing the Intrepid Museum wikipedia page. The information is partially correct. For full details on the creation of the museum please read Intrepid’s Odyssey by the museums founder/creator Michael D. Piccola. The information you are writing on the page is vague and misleading. 67.81.242.183 (talk) 01:22, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
Intrepid was supposed to be scrapped after decommissioning in the late 1970s, but Odysseys in Flight, a nonprofit organization founded by Michael D. Piccola and Bruce Sherer,[5] ... One of Odysseys in Flight's largest supporters was local real estate developer Zachary Fisher,[5][11][12] who established the Intrepid Museum Foundation in March 1978[13] and contributed over $25 million to the museum during his lifetime.[14] Fisher was enthusiastic about the project, eventually attracting other high-profile supporters such as radio and TV personality Arthur Godfrey and actress Maureen O'Hara.[5] The Navy also hoped that Intrepid could be used for recruitment.[11]I am not disputing that Piccola helped found the museum - in fact, the first part of the first paragraph says that. However, you also removed the following facts:

When you reverted me at Ed Sullivan Theater you didn't actually revert to the previous version.
You hid the fact you replaced line breaks for the {{Unbulleted list citebundle}}
template.
Please only revert... when you actually revert. That is, please ensure that when you post an edit whose summary started with "Undid revision xxxxxxxx by NNNN", that's factually correct. Thanks
As for the actual case, a) it would be preferable to simply cut down on references b) four references isn't that many and c) it wouldn't have been a case of refbombing anyway (not 1 Misuse, not 2 notability bomb, not 3 needless repetition, not 4 reprints, not 5 in-article conflicts, and not 6 other).

Epic, one more time you are a shining example of how Wikipedia should work. Rather than simply reverting an unregistered user’s edit, you’ve dealt with why that edit was made, came up with a satisfactory resolution for retaining the photo, and went beyond and found an image of the original exterior as a bonus.
