R32/A (New York City Subway car)
For some reason, that article is not showing the services assigned even though it has the car assignment template on it like all other rolling stock articles. Can you see what is wrong?
 * ✅. The recent page move broke the code. epicgenius (talk) 13:45, 18 September 2017 (UTC)

"Donald Trump" (Last Week Tonight)...
... has been promoted! You did most of the heavy lifting here, so congrats and well done! --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 00:32, 24 September 2017 (UTC)


 * Thanks! And good work on that article, too. It wouldn't have been done without your help and, more importantly, your comments on the article's talk page two years ago.By the way, I'm creating an article for "Net Neutrality" (Last Week Tonight). I think that's a notable topic, and since you've written some other Last Week Tonight articles, I wanted to see if you were interested in looking over and/or helping out with this work-in-progress. epicgenius 00:46, 24 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I'm working to rescue a few articles lately, but I'll see if I have time to revisit this later. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 00:49, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

Penn Station Access
I am working to expand are redo the Penn Station Access page in my sandbox. Could you help when you have a chance? Thanks.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 01:01, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Sure. epicgenius 01:02, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks. There is an update in the CPOC report from Monday.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 01:02, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I must have missed that update when I edited the Cortlandt Street (IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line) article that day, with the updated CPOC. There's also a Phase 2 SAS update. I think I should be thanking you for alerting me to this again. epicgenius 01:04, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

NYCS infobox
One of the parameters for Accessible has to go. I've discovered that it can only handle 5. The 6th parameter doesn't appear on article infoboxes. Cards84664 (talk) 14:15, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * No, the 6th parameter works. It was just a coding error, which I have fixed. epicgenius 14:41, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
