This looks like another excellent article on the theatres of New York by Epicgenius and is once again likely to be close to Good Article status already. I will start my review shortly. simongraham (talk) 03:40, 26 November 2021 (UTC)

Comments
This is a stable and well-written article. 97.4% of authorship is by Epicgenius. It is currently ranked B class and a DYK nominee.


 * The article is of appropriate length, 4,595 words of readable prose, plus a referenced list of notable productions and an infobox.
 * It is written in a summary style, consistent with relevant Manuals of Style.
 * Citations seem to be thorough.
 * There are citations from the Shubert organization's website which would ideally be replaced by something more independent.
 * The Shubert Organization source is really only used to cite seating data and proscenium dimensions. Given that they are the theater's owners, I think the Shuberts would know the most about that specific data. As for the fact that the Shuberts operate the Majestic... the source can be replaced in theory, but the Shuberts have owned the theater for so long that any such source would be quite old.

 * That seems reasonable. simongraham (talk) 18:17, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
 * All other references appear to be from reputable sources, assuming the Internet Broadway Database is.
 * The IBDB was established as a reliable source at Featured list candidates/List of Broadway theaters/archive1, if that helps. Epicgenius (talk) 17:59, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you. simongraham (talk) 18:17, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Images have appropriate licensing and CC tags. Many of them seem to have come from Wiki Loves Monuments 2021.
 * Earwig's Copyvio Detector identifies a 14.5% chance of copyright violation with Henderson's book. I suggest looking at this and rewording if necessary.
 * The entirety of this match is the name of the book itself. Epicgenius (talk) 17:59, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Bizarre! Excellent work. simongraham (talk) 18:17, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
 * "A cornice and a parapet with finials runs above the sixth story of the stage house." Is "a cornice and a parapet with finials" a singular noun?
 * I've fixed it. Epicgenius (talk) 17:59, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I see no other obvious spelling or grammar errors.

Please ping me when you would like me to take another look. simongraham (talk) 17:07, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
