Talk:Coyote station

Museum?
The lead section claims that Plans are underway to restore the building to its original state and transform it into a transportation museum., and the creator's comment states that it is sourced elsewhere, but it it not. @Greghenderson2006, how do you know this advance information? Would this happen to be a paid editing project? Netherzone (talk) 01:01, 4 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi Netherzone, not sure if I understnad your comment. What do you mean sourced elsewhere? The  San Jose Mercury News  source states that "History San Jose plans to restore the depot back to its original condition and convert it into a transportation museum, along with a new model railroad display that will be attached to the structure."
 * It is not a paid editing project. I am not involved in that anymore. I am interested in Santa Clara History and having done two articles on train station, this came up as an article that I could write about. The station was recenlty moved to History Park, which is near my location, so was able to get a picture of the actual train station! Greg Henderson (talk) 01:16, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
 * @Greghenderson2006, The source of the confusion is that the statement is in the lead. Per MOS:LEAD the lead (lede) section is a brief overview of the article. It does not have to be sourced with references. However, because it is a synopsis or summary of the content of the article itself, any claims in the lead must be present in the body of the text (and sourced).
 * There is no mention of the word "museum" in the body of the article. So even if you have a source somewhere in the article, that claim should be expanded upon in the body of the article itself along with the associated source. So if you add a sentence or two about the forthcoming museum please also footnote that content to the Mercury source.
 * Does that make sense? It should be an easy fix.
 * Thank you for answering my question about paid editing, and I'm glad to hear you are no longer doing UPE. BTW, I too like local histories, so can appreciate your interest. Netherzone (talk) 01:37, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks - you are so good about matching what is written with the correct source. I will fix the article. I appreciate you taking the time to look into it and bringing it to my attention. That is good that you like history too. I've read some of your articles that you have posted and they look really good! Greg Henderson (talk) 01:48, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
