Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

now-bogus claim?
The article asserts this place "opened in 1900, is the oldest continually-operating theatre in Boston", but then later in the article it covers a "re-opening". I.e. sounds like it was closed in 2017, and reopened in 2018? Ergo no longer has valid claim to continuous-in-operation-ness. I am not familiar with the details, but if it was closed for a year or six months or whatever, perhaps now the lede should be revised. --Doncram (talk) 23:07, 27 May 2019 (UTC)


 * There's a difference between "closed for renovations" and "out of business". The "re-opening" discussed was for its use as a commercial touring house, having been used solely by Emerson College for some time after the college bought it from Jujamcyn. oknazevad (talk) 16:36, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
