Talk:Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree

Move/Renaming

I'd like to discussion about change from Christmas Tree at Rockefeller Center to The Tree at Rockefeller Center. Qaderrik (talk) 23:24, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

• Undo: This article was moved on August 16 from Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree. As far as I can tell, there has been no corresponding "renaming" by Rockefeller Center and indeed the reference cited by the editor making the move still mentions the name "Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree" several times including the official media page here, as does Rockefeller Center itself. The move was made without any discussion and improperly left a lot of redirects from articles linked here. Per WP:MOVE, WP:RM, and WP:NAME, I propose reverting the article back to its previous title, Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree, which is "the most easily recognized name", but will wait to see if there's a consensus in support of this. JGHowes ^talk - 18:14, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

In absence of any objection, I'm restoring the correct and most easily recognized title.  JGHowes ^talk 21:08, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

The Tree at Rockefeller Center → Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree — I work at Rubenstein and we represent Rockefeller Center. JGHowes is correct and the official name of the page should be reverted back to reflect the correct name - Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree. The official name of the tree can be found here: 2010 Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree. //Brycetom (talk) 21:44, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

• Support Not because it's the official name but because it appears to be the common name.--Labattblueboy (talk) 06:16, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
• Support per WP:COMMONNAME --JaGa^talk 13:42, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:First Rockefeller Center Tree1931.jpg

Image:First Rockefeller Center Tree1931.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

christmas in rockefeller center

The Christmas In Rockefeller Center tv specials which have been airing for years on NBC deserve its on subsection, even its own page. With all the events of the show including numerous celebrity musicsl sppearances (for 2010 including Susan Boyle, Jessica Simpson, Mariah Carey, and Kylie Minnogue among others) this warrents its own page.--Cooly123 00:30, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Tree height

The beginning of the article mentions that tree heights range up to 110 feet tall but that the tallest ever was only 100 feet. This is contradictory. The source link is dead and I can't find any info to confirm the height range. Does anyone have any info on this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daul21 (talk • contribs) 17:56, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Nonsensical Claim

"The LEDs use 1,200 fewer kilowatts of electricity per day, enough to power a 2,000-square-foot home for a month."

I know this comes more or less verbatim from the source cited immediately after, but it's a nonsensical statement. Perhaps the original article meant "Kilowatt-Hours"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Loansindi (talk • contribs) 05:59, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
