Your GA nomination of Kings Theatre (Brooklyn)

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Kings Theatre (Brooklyn) you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Luka Maglc -- Luka Maglc (talk) 12:45, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Congratulations

Kings Theatre (Brooklyn) has passed the GA review, well done.

The only issue I could find at all is that the inbox list the "Architect" style twice, and that isn't a major issue. I didn't fix it because I am not sure if that's standard or not, you can fix it if you choose to. Everything else amazingly done. Luka Maglc (talk) 15:01, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

DYK for Tudor City

On 12 February 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Tudor City, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that residents of Tudor City once put themselves in front of a bulldozer to prevent a park there from being demolished? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Tudor City. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Tudor City), 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.

Renovations at 1 & 2 UN Plaza

Hi Epicgenius, Our mutual friend over at KRJDA in New Haven Linda S----o from KRJDA Archives sent me an email, and said:

"I just saw this today. https://www.6sqft.com/un-plaza-buildings-to-get-500m-revamp-create-1800-jobs/"

I told her you already added a renovation blurb.

Thank you Bigeez (talk) 21:10, 13 February 2025 (UTC)

@Bigeez, you're welcome. I have a Google news feed specifically for new NYC developments, so I updated these articles as soon as I noticed it in my feed. – Epicgenius (talk) 21:14, 13 February 2025 (UTC)
