City Point
Thank you for your contributions so far. I'm writing here to give you some concrete examples of why your edits, such as this one, were removed. In the first instance, it's factually inaccurate. At no point was City Point itself anything else. For example, the MetLife Building was the Pan-Am Building. It's not called that anymore, but it was. Or similar example with lots of pro sports stadiums and arenas, they're still the same building. City Point, however was not the Albee Square Mall, though the ground it occupies was. Moreover, that issue is already covered, so this information adds nothing. The idea is that the encyclopedia be written in as close to one voice as possible, not have any internal inconsistencies or repetitions. To that last point, the encyclopedia cannot say things like "remarkably" as it should be written in a neutral way, not with extra adverbs to make it sound exciting. Especially given the words that followed were not remarkable in the slightest, and would be removed for not being encyclopedic even with a source to the NYT. I hope you understand why these particular edits are not constructive, but you can still contribute to the encyclopedia. Perhaps spend some more time reading other articles, especially those deemed "good" or "featured" and get a feel for some of the tone of voice, language, and citation formats used so you can see what makes edits stick. Everyone here is a volunteer and we all have the goal of making every article be as presentable as possible. Thank you! JesseRafe (talk) 22:04, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
