Newtown Creek Oil Spill
Hello, thank you for this article. However, we already have an article on this topic! It's at Greenpoint oil spill. You may want to improve this article instead.

What I've done is changed the current version of the page at Newtown Creek Oil Spill so it redirects to the pre-existing Greenpoint oil spill article. This is a link to your text if you want to copy any text over into it.

Hope this is helpful, just let me know if you have any questions. Blythwood (talk) 00:58, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
