- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Jovani Furlan
- Comment: ALTM1, ALTM2, ALTM3, and ALTM4 are combo hooks with Template:Did you know nominations/750 Seventh Avenue. If any of these hooks are approved, then the corresponding hooks should also be approved in the other nomination.

A copy-paste of my review from 750 Seventh Avenue: "again with the "add info" for 66k bytes of content, done within the nom timeframe; the length is 4300 words; the article is neutral, has more references than there are lizards in Florida, and I guess Earwig gets ticked off at direct quotes, but other than that it's copyvio free." In my opinion, these two articles tie together nicely as they were both purchased by the same company for similar reasons, so I support ALTM1. In the case where both are to be used separately, I support alt0, alt2, and alt3. Panini! • 🥪 13:28, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Epicgenius: looks like 1585 broadway has quite a few cn tags and a maintenance tag attached? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 23:54, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
- Theleekycauldron, that's weird. I looked the 1585 Broadway page over, and the page does not seem to have any tags at all, nor is it in a hidden maintenance category. The Morgan Stanley page, however (which isn't bolded nor part of this nomination), does have these tags. Epicgenius (talk) 01:06, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
