User Beyond My Ken's reversions
Flickr user ajay_suresh has taken, edited, and uploaded hundreds of high quality images of landmarks in the city. I've been trying to make sure these valuable photos end up in articles rather than just sitting unused on Commons. Unfortunately Beyond My Ken has reverted every single addition of these images, almost always to preserve the inclusion of his own, lower quality photographs in articles. Here are some of the new, high quality, images and the dated, lower quality images he's replaced them with.

I find BMK's behavior troubling (bordering on WP:OWNERSHIP or WP:HARASS behavior) and worry it is coming at the expense of the quality of Wikipedia's NY content. Filetime (talk) 02:44, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
 * On Washington Mews, BMK reverted the addition of this gallery which shows the historic facades along the street with no explanation or justification. Why is he hindering the improvement of coverage of NY landmarks? Filetime (talk) 02:49, 29 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Actually, what's troubling here is Filetime's long-time continuing behavior of acting as the self-appointed god of article images. He constantly changes article images and reduces the display size of galleries, all without ever inquiring in advance if the changes are needed or wanted.  This wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the sad fact that his changes are almost invariably not improvements.  He replaces good images with newer but less interesting ones, often with the excuse that the new images are technically better, but an image which is better technically but does a bad job of presenting the subject of the image is not an improvement over a technically adequate one which presents the subject significantly better.  In other words, Filetime has no criteria for judging whether the new images are improvements or not except extremely narrow technical ones, as his judgment concern presentation is almost totally lacking.  His judgement of quality is almost exclusively about numbers and not about the visual or informational value of an image.  He's been doing this for quite a while, and doing it specifically to images which I happen to have taken to the extent that a he was warned by an admin that his behavior was verging on harassment and that he needed to stop before he would be blocked.  As it happens, he did not stop, and was blocked for 48 hours for "hounding" me.


 * Here Filetime continues that behavior, so I am pinging the admin: . Beyond My Ken (talk) 05:48, 29 November 2021 (UTC)


 * First things first. This is a content not a conduct forum. So bevavioural concerns belong elsewhere. Likewise any sniping on talk pages or in edit summaries should cease. Please exercise caution with pings as these may give the appearence of canvassing to a content discussion, although for reasons I'm about to explain that concern is fairly low.Short version, these are all distinct content disputes that can't really be resolved in one place, although a brief message asking for input is fine, but since each photo dispute has to be examined on it's own merits trying to resolve several of them at once will likely just result in a TRAINWRECK.Longer version, it's clear that you are both passionate about photography and also have many disagreements over how to assess photographs; it happens, on most pages you can get away with whatever you want for the image because none of the watchers really cares much, but sometimes two or more people with strongly held views have interest in similar topics and coming to a compromise when images are involved is trickier then with text because the choice is more often binary (i.e. one or the other). If the discussion is of the type where you might find agreement like with formatting, or where you can just have both images in a gallery then try to work it out between yourselves, in the more binary cases just seek WP:DR once it becomes clear that talk page discussion has stalemated. If the two of you can agree on a trusted 3rd-party with strong knowledge of photography to mediate disputes and agree in advance to heed their recommendations that would be optimal to save a bit of community time, but if not you'll probably have to go to rfcs. Once an rfc has concluded respect the result and don't start a new rfc on the images for at least six months in the absence of a very compelling reason. You could potentially try WP:DRN to resolve multiple disputes at once but success rates in mediation there aren't exactly great and some people consider it a waste of time.I've seen some of these disputes before, I don't have much knowledge when it comes to photography so I've stayed away. In my uneducated opinion it varies, each of you probably has the better photo around half the time. But like I said, I don't know much about photography, so take that for what it's worth.In sum, don't editwar, assess on a case-by-case basis, use WP:DR, and if conduct issues become a problem use the appropriate conduct forum WP:ANEW, WP:ANI, etc. I hope you both found this helpful.

Good Topic: Parks of the Bronx
I've just published Claremont Park, which means we now have articles on every one of the New Parks Act parks. I believe three of those are already GA. I'd love to get the rest of them up to GA and then we could have Parks of the Bronx as a WP:Good topic, which I've never done before. Would love to have some help getting the rest of them up to GA. I've also been thinking about Minor parks of the Bronx, to cover the dozens of small parks which don't justify their own articles. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:14, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Very nice work User:RoySmith! I would like to help, as I love the parks of New York City but admittedly know very little about the parks of the Bronx. Is there a specific article I can focus on? Are there needs for photos of the Bronx parks? I could take a trip and snap some winter shots. Thanks for spreading the knowledge about the parks of the Bronx! --Wil540 art (talk) 18:11, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I haven't done any work on St. Mary's Park (Bronx), so maybe that's a good place to start. It's also the furthest of the 6 from where I live, so if you want to take some photos, that would be a good one from that point of view as well.  I'm not sure what's good shooting there, however.  The last time I was there (this past summer), most of the park was a construction project. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:18, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Most fun would be a group to walk through the abandoned railroad tunnel underneath the park. Jim.henderson (talk) 15:19, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm in Jim.henderson, lead the way! Sounds haunted. Is the abandoned railroad tunnel accessible to the public? --Wil540 art (talk) 09:33, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Accessibility of abandoned railroads is dubious. Before the turn of the century I walked many of them alone and with friends in New York and New Jersey, and a few easy ones shortly before the plague slowed my adventures. In my current age of diminished powers I would not walk the Port Morris Branch alone. It's a trench line that goes underground. Drainage has presumably not been maintained in the quarter century that it has been out of use, so it requires watching for flood. Today would be a bad choice, for example, with recent rain and more possible in the afternoon. So, yes, it's a bit of an adventure. Might have a few good pictures. A preliminary scout of the possible access point that I snapped a few years ago might be in order, in case conditions have changed there. Hmm, if there were a political agitation for an entrenched greenway from the Randalls Island Connector to the Borough Courthouse ... Jim.henderson (talk) 14:17, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Fresh Fruit Festival
Found this in the backlog. I feel like it should be notable, but it's a brochure, even with the minimal sourcing I was able to find and add. Any thoughts or suggestions on improving this, or a merger target if it's not going to make it as a standalone? Star  Mississippi  15:51, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
 * It's not much, but I did find some independent coverage in Broadway World. There might be a bit more to say about its parent organization, All Out Arts. pburka (talk) 16:14, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I'm wondering through similar research if it makes more sense to create an All Out Arts article and then merge this. That way it's still covered, but nothing I'm finding screams standalone, unfortunately. Star   Mississippi  16:47, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Wonder if knows a thing or two. &mdash;  Rhododendrites  talk \\ 19:08, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Twelve or fifteen years ago I was the Sweep (rear admiral of the ride) for a Times Up winter ride from Central Park to Bay Ridge. I got the job because my friend Trudy was the Point (real boss) and she was grooming me as an assistant. I drifted away from them and from Trudy's own over-the-hill gang, and never had much interest in the political end, the "cycling movement" anyway. I didn't know they were the subject of an article. So, I could probably hunt them down again; don't know how much the plague has cut back their activities. During the plague year (and a half) I've only been participating in one biker gang, and having aged twenty years during that year and a half I don't stand up to cold so well.

 * Interesting NYC historian. I'm wondering if the article is naming Moss correctly. Most all the sources refer to him as Moss, not Hansbury. --Wil540 art (talk) 02:53, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Moss is a pseudonym Hansbury uses in writing about New York. He doesn’t use it in his private life. Thriley (talk) 02:55, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
 * "The name used most often to refer to a person in reliable sources is generally the one that should be used as the article title, even if it is not the person's "real" name, and even if it appears to pass judgement on the person" See: Naming conventions (people) --Wil540 art (talk) 02:58, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
 * So are you saying his real name should be put in the personal life section? Thriley (talk) 03:07, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I think his legal name should remain in the lead as he's revealed his identity publicly; however, the article should refer to him as Moss as that is the name he is known and referred to as. --Wil540 art (talk) 03:20, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

Consensus needed - inclusion of fictional instances/characters?
As part of an effort to clear out the large backlog of unassessed articles in the Project, I've recently encountered quite a few which are about individual fictional characters or individual episodes/seasons of fictional works (like TV shows and comics).

While I think it's assumed that the main articles of these works (for example, Castle (TV series)) do belong in the project, I question the value of including their child articles (like List of Castle characters, List of Castle episodes, Castle (season 1), Richard Castle, etc. etc.) for two reasons:
 * Size: If this Project onboarded every character, season, and episode of every fictional work either about, set-in, filmed-in, or written-in New York City, it would be (and, arguably, already is) excessively bloated and saturated with articles that most members here have little to no interest in maintaining under the scope of this project.
 * Focus: The goal of any WikiProject is to identify, track, and improve articles on a targeted basis. Treating the project's banner template as an indiscriminate hashtag to mark anything & everything remotely related to it is a misuse, and it devalues the work of the Project at large imv.

Thoughts? Headphase (talk) 16:53, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
 * If it were easy to spin out new WikiProjects, then there is enough content and demand to have one for "WikiProject New York City in Fiction". Over at WP:WikiProject Medicine there were conflicts with House (TV series), which is an immensely popular medical show with an engaged editor community. Fortunately someone set up WikiProject Television/House task force so that now on the talk page Talk:House (TV series) it is not part of WikiProject Medicine. I appreciate the enthusiasm, and people need WikiProjects, and yes the show did drive a large audience to actual medical articles, but the fiction audience and the nonfiction audiences are different.  Bluerasberry   (talk)  17:48, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Agreed. If there is no further objection, I'll go ahead and add this to the Assessment page:

"The following articles should not generally be included within the scope of this wikiproject:
 * Individual ficitonal episodes, seasons, and characters.
 * (placeholder)"
 * Headphase (talk) 02:14, 10 February 2022 (UTC)


 * There are two questions here: whether fictional elements from NYC should be part of this project, and whether they should have their own project.
 * WikiProjects are, by and large, strapped for participation, and should should only be created when there are people dedicated to working on them, not to dump dead weight from another project. So for the second question, I don't think it's a good idea to split this off unless there are some people here who will commit to setting it up and working on it. Perhaps a task force makes more sense if maintenance is the biggest concern, but there, too, we'd need people who are interested in that task force beyond the point that it's split out.
 * As for whether they should be part of this project, I don't think I see see the harm. I don't think participants have an expectation that they will be interested in absolutely every article tagged for a given project. I dare say most articles in most WikiProjects (save very few examples) are articles that WikiProject members have little to no interest in maintaining. I don't think that's a bad thing -- just that people are interested in what they're interested in, and that rarely spans a subject as large as New York City. I see West Side Story, Wall Street, Friends, Seinfeld, The Warriors, On the Waterfront, Taxi Driver, A Bronx Tale, etc. as completely relevant to NYC and the NYC WikiProject. Compare that to some random business that happens to exist within city limits. I'm certainly more likely to read those articles and edit those articles than some random company that happens to exist (or ever existed) inside city limits (or the Mets or some Wall Street CEO for that matter). Another conversation could just be to set some guidelines, like "does the [setting/birthplace/location] play a significant role in the work?" though that would be hard to ensure.
 * Update: I missed an important line above re: child articles. - that negates much of my second paragraph. The guidance may work, but I'm curious about "generally" - can we articulate more about exceptions? &mdash;  Rhododendrites  talk \\ 05:03, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Queens requested image backlog
The backlog at Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Queens has been reduced from 54 to 14 since the beginning of the month:


 * 25 image requests had already been fulfilled.
 * 1 request could be fulfilled with an existing picture.
 * 2 non-notable articles were deleted.
 * 2 image requests of people were moved to a subject-specific category.
 * 10 requests were fulfilled with new pictures.

Of the remaining requests:


 * 1975 LaGuardia Airport bombing, 2019 US Open – Day-by-day summaries, Rockaway Beach Hotel, and Sundrome will need to be fulfilled by archival images. There ought to be images of at least the latter two, although I couldn't find anything on Commons.
 * Bellaire station, Hillside station (LIRR), Springfield Gardens station, and Westbridge station are all LIRR stations that no longer exist. The image requests could be fulfilled by archival images of the stations, or by new photographs of the stations' former sites.
 * The cemetery at Lent Homestead and Cemetery neither publicly accessible nor visible from the street, as far as I could tell, but I did not snoop around too much as it was on private property. However the owner does offer occasional tours.
 * Queens High School for the Sciences was behind a locked gate, at least on the weekend.
 * The other four (Japanese School of New York, Japanese Weekend School of New York, Springfield Gardens, Queens, St. Agnes Academic High School (Queens)) all still exist; they were just too out of the way for me to get to.

User script to detect unreliable sources
I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like and turns it into something like
 * John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.
 * John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.

It will work on a variety of links, including those from cite web, cite journal and doi.

The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.

Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

I like to go very slowly on an individual article; hoping someone else will jump in and finish the job. Since we are both oldtimers (me in more senses) we can eventually decide it's ready to move into article space, insert links, and invite the world of Wikans to tear down and rebuild our work.

Mental health care in New York City article - ? - Healthcare in NYC
To quote @Rhododendrites from the WMNYC discord: "I dare say if someone's feeling brave, there's a good case for creating mental health care in New York City or even involuntary hospitalization in New York City..."

I agree. On that topic, Involuntary hospitalization the United States doesn't exist but Involuntary_treatment does. A redirect is in order; at least, or a stand alone article.

If there isn't the capacity for a new stand-alone "Mental healthcare in NYC" article at the moment, more info on that subject matter could be added to and developed in the Healthcare in New York City or Healthcare in New York (state) articles, both of which need a good bit of attention. - Wil540 art (talk) 05:35, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

Bus in the Bronx? Are you sure?
Every now and then, I've come across some pictures of buses in the commons that are categorized as "Buses in the Bronx, New York City" simply because they have Bx Route numbers. Since some of those routes cross into Manhattan, I had to be sure that some buses marked as "Bx" are actually in Upper Manhattan, and I've found out I was right. I'm not entirely certain about the one below, though. -User:DanTD (talk) 05:23, 7 January 2023 (UTC)



That bus is in front of 501 W 125th St., although just about every store front in the picture except the Dunkin Donuts has changed since it was taken in 2009. But there's still a deli/grocery/bodega there. Jahaza (talk) 07:54, 7 January 2023 (UTC)


 * It's not just Bx busses. There's lots of bus lines that go between boroughs, and get named for one or the other.  I don't know how they decide which name to give it.  For example, the Q44 and Q50 routes both run partly in the Bronx.
 * It's odd that the DD's is the one store that hasn't changed. Do DD's just have greater longevity than most places?  There's one in the town where I grew up in NJ in the mid 1970's that's still there today.  Looking on Google Maps, it hasn't changed at all. -- RoySmith (talk) 01:48, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

Why is "Kechemeche" in this project?
I just happened to notice on Talk:Kechemeche that it is "within the scope of WikiProject New York City". It's not clear to me that it should be, so I'm asking here.

The Kechemeche were (and maybe are, I don't know) a group of Native American people who, at the time of European contact, lived in the southern portion of what is now Cape May County, New Jersey, i.e. the peninsula at the very southern tip of NJ. That's a hundred-some miles from NYC. And I don't see anything in the article regarding NYC. The closest thing is a vague passing mention of New Netherland (alongside related mentions of New Sweden and the Province of New Jersey). What is now NYC was a part of New Netherland, but a whole lot of places were, too... like, from upstate NY down to Delmarva (and including, to be explicit, Cape May). So, it seems weird to me that this article is part of this WikiProject.

However, I don't really know much at all about this WikiProject beyond its name, so I guess it actually could be "within the scope". Beyond the vague mention of New Netherland, I see one other possible reason why it might be: The Kechemeche were part of the Lenape, and the Lenape were also in what is now NYC. But really, I think this suffers from essentially the same issue as the vague New Netherland mention: The Lenape people lived throughout a very large area, not just NYC and its immediate environs. Moreover, the Lenape were divided into three major clans, and as you can see on the map I just linked to, the NYC area and the southern NJ area were dominated by two different clans, with the third clan in between them. And beyond that, the clans were subdivided into smaller groups -- such as the Kechemeche. So this reason for relating the article to NYC would boil down to something like:


 * The Kechemeche lived at the very southern tip of New Jersey, in an area of maybe a few hundred square miles.
 * The Kechemeche were a small band of the Turkey Clan.
 * The Turkey Clan lived throughout an area of ten thousand square miles or so.
 * The Turkey Clan was one of the three large clans of the Lenape people.
 * One of the other two clans was the Wolf Clan.
 * The Wolf Clan lived throughout a different area also of ten thousand square miles or so, separated from the lands of the Turkey Clan by the several-thousand-square-miles lands of the third (Turtle) clan.
 * The Canarsee were a small band of the Wolf Clan.
 * The Canarsee lived around Brooklyn, a hundred-some miles from the Kechemeche, in an area of maybe a hundred square miles or so.
 * Brooklyn is part of New York City.
 * Therefore, the Kechemeche are within the scope of WikiProject NYC.

This seems like a pretty flimsy justification to me, but again, I don't know enough about your WikiProject to say whether it is a sufficient justification or not, so I'm asking here rather than just deleting the page's mention of the WikiProject. -Rwv37 (talk) 08:08, 20 March 2023 (UTC)

Project-independent quality assessments
Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a class parameter to WikiProject banner shell, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to WikiProject banner shell, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass WPBannerMeta a new custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

Housing Rights in NYC taskforce
Hello everyone, typing live from NYC's WikiWednesday Salon. An idea we've discussed here the past two times that a few people were interested in was creating a taskforce to cover housing/tenants rights in NYC. NYC has quite a lot of housing rights articles, more than most states, but many are in disrepair and many don't exist. I'll create a more formal taskforce page when I have time (currently in my last week of finals), but I'm posting this to gauge interest.

New York City Columbus Day Parade
New York City Columbus Day Parade probably needs to be a real article, comparable to New York City St. Patrick's Day Parade, but it is presently just a categorized redirect to Columbus Citizens Foundation, the only place I can find an appropriate section, but it is just a section-stub (the whole page is basically a stub, and badly needs linking and other wikification). There's a small amount of related information in Columbus Day, but not much. I gather that, with over a million spectators and 40K direct partciipants, that this is the second-largest parade event of NYC, after the St. Patrick's one, so it is surely article-worthy. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  05:20, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Neighborhood boundaries and original research
It's obvious to people in the city that neighborhood boundaries are nebulously defined, which surprises me that we have lots of articles that pretty declaratively state at least a consensus view for boundaries. The sources for these boundaries are either not given (just using maps with boundaries drawn arbitrarily) or not great (Ditmas Park, Brooklyn uses an old community board page with a map, but community boards don't equate directly with neighborhoods and likely aren't written by authorities regardless.) Before I try tackling this, I wanted to see if I was missing anything. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 20:25, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
 * While there are some historic districts with official boundaries, neighborhoods are all unofficial AFAIK. Even the sorta kinda official map says it's not exhaustive and unofficial. I recall a dispute somewhere that because a source listed a few neighborhoods as part of an unofficial region, the article on that region should only list those neighborhoods. The fact that there happens to be a neighborhood smack dab in the middle of all the ones it listed was considered irrelevant because some broad-scoped source listed these neighborhoods and the existence of something between them is just OR).
 * I'd say for most purposes, articles about neighborhoods should be clear that they're unofficial and change over time. For the sake of providing boundaries, though, IMO we should defer to the Population FactFinder, and add to that if there are several RS that give an alternative. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 21:15, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
 * What part of the pop fact-finder are you referring to? The neighborhood tabulation units? They're supposed to be roughly analogous to neighborhoods, but given that they're built of census tract districts not neighborhood boundaries it seems a little weird to use them. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs  talk 02:03, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

When, over a decade ago, I was trying to organize and rationalize The Bronx I added (or modified) a lead paragraph that reads. === Neighborhoods ===

The number, locations, and boundaries of the Bronx's neighborhoods (many of them sitting on the sites of 19th-century villages) have become unclear with time and successive waves of newcomers. Even city officials do not necessarily agree. In a 2006 article for The New York Times, Manny Fernandez described the disagreement:

"According to a Department of City Planning map of the city's neighborhoods, the Bronx has 49. The map publisher Hagstrom identifies 69. The borough president, Adolfo Carrión Jr., says 61. The Mayor's Community Assistance Unit, in a listing of the borough's community boards, names 68."

Major neighborhoods of the Bronx include the following....

New source on neighborhood boundaries
This should be required reading for anyone who's gotten into a debate over boundaries: An Extremely Detailed Map of New York City Neighborhoods (and the accompanying Extremely Detailed Guide). The guide certainly has a lot of details that should go into neighborhood articles. Debatable how much OR would be required to use the map -- probably too much. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 13:55, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the OR issues are what make me think it's not all that useful a source for most of our articles (besides pointing out that a neighborhood's boundaries are ill-defined.) The "vast majority agree" consensus areas are way more narrow than any workable definition of neighborhoods we're using. I do think the biggest germane point it makes that might affect our coverage is that Google Maps is absolutely garbage and should never be used as a source, otherwise we're doing our part to help make up boundaries and encourage circular sourcing. I think the best uses for it are when talking about neighborhood boundaries in general, or specific examples it gives in text—for example, the Prospect Heights/Crown Heights text that's called out makes it clear the western border is pretty fixed but the eastern border has migrated with gentrification and changing demographics. Likewise there's some very good information on the formation of Cobble Hill/Boerum Hill from "South Brooklyn" into more specific neighborhoods (and there's apparently a book that covers that in more detail that will be worth picking up I imagine.)


 * I do think we're overdue to look at all our neighborhood coverage and rationalize it as best we can, and this will be marginally helpful. But of course, given how much people disagree, we can't really use it as a silver bullet since the reality is just as messy as the sourcing. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs  talk 15:11, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
 * It is true that neighborhood borders can be really fuzzy and that the actual NY Times map probably shouldn't be used as a source, since basically anyone could leave feedback there. This would make it akin to a user-generated map. However, I do still think the guide article could be used as a source for a few articles. The borders can get really blurry when you're talking about a neighborhood like Murray Hill, Manhattan. On the whole, though, I do think the map could be useful to show the approximate borders of neighborhoods (even if we don't use it as a source). It could also probably be used to determine whether neighborhoods should merit their own articles, or whether their pages should be combined with those of other neighborhoods. – Epicgenius (talk) 23:51, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
 * What precisely in the guide do you think is useful for sourcing? I don't think we're in disagreement that it discusses some boundaries that can be useful, but I didn't on reading find that it really gave anything that could be used at least singularly for any specific neighborhood's boundaries versus certain edges. It's also got the 1919 map of Brooklyn, which at least gives some concrete historical areas to work from. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs  talk 19:42, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
 * I was thinking that we could add a brief sentence to some NYC neighborhood articles, like "Neighborhood borders in New York City are not well defined", and use the NYT guide as a source. The main takeaway from this article is that neither the city nor secondary sources (even generally reliable ones like the NYT itself) can describe the boundaries of most neighborhoods with 100% accuracy. There's probably a few exceptions like Roosevelt Island and Morningside Heights, but for the most part, the fact that neighborhood borders can be fuzzy is itself a useful detail to add to articles.I was also intrigued by how some readers said that certain neighborhoods, like NoHo and Nolita, don't exist. There might be a case for adding something like that to articles, though we can't exactly say "According to a NYT poll, some readers don't think NoHo exists". Rather, the guide would be a good jumping-off point for finding sources about neighborhoods whose very existence is disputed. – Epicgenius (talk) 21:06, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

Peer review request for American Bank Note Company Printing Plant
This is a fascinating building in the South Bronx, designated a New York City landmark. Built in 1909, this was an industrial printing plant on the cutting edge of modern (for the day) technology. The neighborhood suffered from urban decay in the latter part of the 20th century, during which period this building also outlived its original use. This building has been renovated and repurposed as commercial space, taking advantage of the high ceilings and abundant natural lighting inherent in its original design as a printing plant, and has served as an anchor point for the revitalization of the area. I'm trying to get it into shape for WP:FAC and would appreciate input from Wikiproject NYC. Review page is Peer review/American Bank Note Company Printing Plant/archive2.

Neighborhoods and demographic/crime/health data
I'm working on Flatbush with an eye to expansion, but it also currently contains a lot of crime, health, and demographic information, clearly modeled on the structure of town/city articles, which makes a certain level of sense. The problem as I see it (and which the article presently sort of points out) is that this information doesn't align 1:1 with Flatbush as a neighborhood, even given how nebulous NYC neighborhoods generally are (as discussed above and in the archives.) I know there was some disagreement on these stats inclusions elsewhere and it was suggested an RfC happen here or at WikiProject Cities, but to my knowledge that never occurred (Epicgenius or Horse Eye's Back can you check me on that?) My gut instinct here is that it's a bit off to apply citywide-style data to neighborhoods, especially given the overlap in areas; if we're going to include it, wouldn't the more accurate and reasonable target be the Community Boards themselves, which do properly map to the statistics? (e.g. the Flatbush stuff should get moved to Brooklyn Community Board 14.) And if we do use content that has a weak fit with what we're discussing (e.g. the neighborhood tabulation units) then those caveats need to be more explicitly addressed in prose to avoid giving the wrong ideas. Thoughts? Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 22:19, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't believe we ever had an RfC... My memory is that we came to an understanding that the range of contexts is rather large especially when you go beyond the United States so the applicability of that sort of data to neighborhood articles needs to be determined on a case by case basis. I am not knowledgable enough about NYC to comment with any certainty on whether or not those statistics map onto the underlying neighborhoods well enough to be used. Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 23:29, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
 * @David Fuchs, thanks for the ping. Horse Eye's Back seems to be correct—we never had an RFC about this, at least to my knowledge, and the inclusion of this data depends on several factors that should preferably be discussed individually.As to the crime, health, and demographic information, I do think the first two could probably be copied over to the community board articles. The majority of NYC neighborhoods fall within one community district, though (and for neighborhoods that fall within more than one community district, you can just use data from multiple districts, as was done with the Crown Heights, Brooklyn article).Demographic data is a lot more granular, however, and census tracts often don't align perfectly with community district boundaries like the crime and health data are. I would keep demographic data in the neighborhood articles, even if we're only using estimates, since I assume many readers will be looking for demographic data when they search for neighborhoods. On the other hand, it would be good to clarify that (if we include demographic data in neighborhood articles) the data is only an estimate. – Epicgenius (talk) 23:56, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Okay. When I get to it I'll migrate most of the content over to the community board and give a more executive summary with explicit callouts on the limitations. In conjunction with the text acknowledging the squishiness of the borders that might be clear enough. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs  talk 16:06, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
