Why no definite article?
The New Yorker article about Vessel (Feb 26, 2018, p. 42) refers to it as "The Vessel". It seems extremely "precious" that this object can only be thought of as "Vessel" and a search for "The Vessel" in Wikipedia yields no reference to it. Heck, we help people find the country when they enter "The Ukraine." Can somebody please fix this? Roricka (talk) 05:20, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Giant Shawarma
Two separate sources have agreed that the vessel is popularly known as the "Giant Shawarma." Its Wikipedia page should probably reflect that too. https://ny.eater.com/2019/3/15/18265718/hudson-yards-vessel-shawarma https://slate.com/business/2019/03/shawarma-hudson-yards-vessel-new-york-meat.html?fbclid=IwAR0djK8GcurWTBP-lx1Jjy4p7lh0zrJ4baaf2HXrqoeyGhWH5gMe3yTVcBQ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.169.108.1 (talk) 21:29, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Anti-Stairs Lounge protest
I have partially reverted this edit that changed the following text:

The edit summary indicates that this was done per WP:NOTNEWS. However, there are a few problems with this: – Epicgenius (talk) 15:41, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The information is not NOTNEWS because it isn't a news report, original reporting, or the like. It concerns a protest that someone set up, which is sourced to references from 2018 and 2019, after the lounge had already been set up for a while.
 * This wording is vague to the point of using WP:WEASEL words. In particular, who are "some people" and when/how did they protest?
 * This wording actually nearly duplicates a sentence about something totally different. Earlier in the paragraph, there is the sentence Because of this, disability-rights groups protested outside the structure. Even though the specific groups aren't named, as their names are not particularly pertinent to the Vessel, this basically boils down to "some people protested". The difference is that it isn't a disability group who protested, it was an artist who set up a lounge as a different type of protest.
