Your GA nomination of La Maison Francaise (Rockefeller Center)The article La Maison Francaise (Rockefeller Center) you nominated as a good article has passed NYCSThe J/Z templates should be fine now, besides the service bullets which I haven't touched. Figures they suspend the most tedious service to re-code. Cards84664 19:25, 1 July 2022 (UTC) NPP July 2022 backlog drive is on!

Stuyvesant Town pageHello, I am the person who corrected a frustrating, continually multiplying, long-standing error about the number of buildings in Stuyvesant Town - Peter Cooper Village. Here’s a link to a map of the property - https://www.stuytown.com/about-us/map - so you can count the number of actual, INDIVIDUAL buildings for yourself and also see that many individual buildings have multiple street addresses. The NY Times article originally referenced about the number of buildings is, quite simply, WRONG. I know Stuyvesant Town very well and what I have written is accurate. Many who live in Stuyvesant Town are frustrated that the number of buildings is often misquoted due to the misinformation in this Wikipedia article that I have now corrected. I would respectfully ask that you stop reverting the page back to the one with the incorrect NY Times reference. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by All Things Cultural (talk • contribs) 18:18, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject). If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Saucy[talk – contribs] 09:03, 11 July 2022 (UTC) Thu July 14: Astoria Beer Garden Wiki-Picnic

It had always bothered me how poor the quality of those articles were. After we do more improving on these articles, work needs to be done on the two Penn Station subway articles-they are awful.
