*Note: it might make sense to bundle this on the same day as Bronx Skate Park. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:42, 26 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • Hi RoySmith. Article is new enough and long enough, references seem OK and a QPQ has been done. I fixed the coordinates and moved the old lead to a new section of the article (the lead should not contain new information and should just be a summary of the main body). In doing so I have probably becme too involved in the article to complete the review, so I am asking for a second reviewer - Dumelow (talk) 04:29, 27 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Sorry, but we don't put names on the main page that don't have a Wikipedia article, and the name is redlinked in this article. If you love this hook, you could write a stub for Weinberg. Personally, I think a new hook would be better. Yoninah (talk) 00:53, 13 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Yoninah, OK, I've written Robert Weinberg (urban planner). It turns out, there's a ton of material about him, I've just barely scratched the surface with what I've got now, but there's always GAN when I feel like doing the rest :-)
Not long ago, Narutolovehinata5 was kind enough to explain to me how double hooks work, so I think that's what I want to do with this. Should I create a second DYK nomination for Robert Weinberg (urban planner), or just add ALT2 with the second link bolded? Also, do I owe you another QPQ for the second article, or is that per-hook? -- RoySmith (talk) 15:35, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
Just write an ALT2 with the link to Weinberg bolded. But if you do so, you'll need to provide a second QPQ (QPQs are per article, not per hook). Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 15:40, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
OK, thanks. ALT2 added. I'll try to catch up with the 2nd QPQ sometime today, but might not have time until tomorrow. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:44, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • @RoySmith: Thank you. One last question: do you want to identify Weinberg in the hook? Like:
  • ALT2a: ... that Vinmont Veteran Park traces its name to New York City architect or: city planner Robert Weinberg, whose German last name translates to Vinmont in French? Yoninah (talk) 10:31, 15 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Dead link?

edit

@Yoninah: Unclear which link your "dead link" is referring to. Both of these:

work for me. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:39, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

The first was fine, the second wasn't but now it is. Weird. Thanks, Yoninah (talk)
Turns out archive.org already had a copy, so I linked that in. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:47, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
