"25th Street was paved above the northern portion of the mass grave in the 1950s, unearthing a number of bodies in the process." I do not find this fact from the lead section ever again mentioned in the article body and likewise it is not referenced. Suggest that the lead section should not contain information that is not also present in the article body. Otherwise, this phrase should be removed. —Prhartcom♥07:52, 13 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
I fixed that during the review. However, the source also mentioned about that actually happening in 1964. It looks like the source might be contradicting itself. This states the road changed in the 1950s: "In the 1950s, a new east-west street was created running west from the intersection of old 25th Street and Tamarind Avenue. This new street ran through the north area and northwest corner of the cemetery. That part of the cemetery is now under the current 25th Street pavement and the triangular area between 25th Street and now designated 25th Court." However, this says 1964: "In 1964, the cemetery nature of the site returned to public knowledge when human remains were exposed during construction of an extension of 25th Street."--12george1 (talk) 01:26, 25 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
