5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 04:41, 7 September 2021 (UTC).
- Article was SIX times expanded since first major edit and considering the lead itself is over 1,500 characters it's safe to conclude it's also long enough. Although the building is near Trump Tower the article remains neutral and is also backed with sources, and a copyvio search declares roughly 25% of similarities, but only really comes from direct quotes. I prefer Alt0 as it is the broadest from a too fancy of an explanation, other than Alt3. I would like to comment on the use of "twin-towered" here, however, as it follows the September 11 attacks and I think it's too, for a lack of a better word, "ironic"? I'd suggest linking September 11 attacks, too. Panini!🥪 19:18, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Panini!: Thanks for taking a look. (Technically it's right next to Trump International Hotel and Tower (New York City), so that would've been the better joke.) I linked the 9/11 attacks in ALT0. I do agree that it is ironic, doubly so given today's date, but I'm not sure of a better way to reword it, since that is the astonishing factor in the price increases.

- Ah, I get that now, I was thinking it was ironic because of money struggles. In that case, I would suggest changing to "that despite the September 11 attacks, apartment prices at the Time Warner Center (pictured) towers were raised five times in the following two years?" I guess I also need to get my vision fixed because I saw "Trump" and "Tower" and nothing else in that hyperlink. Panini!🥪 21:16, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

- @Panini!: It's alright. I proposed ALT0A as a modification of ALT0, though I kept the "twin tower" aspect, since the twin-tower design is the specific reason that one would expect prices to go down, rather than up. Epicgenius (talk) 23:24, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
- AH I did it again! Sorry for the wait for a second time. Prefer Alt0A; looks good! Panini!🥪 21:20, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Panini: would ALT3 be approved too? That seems like the catchier hook to me. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 18:45, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- oops, Panini!? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 05:51, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Theleekycauldron, Ha! Of course, and I approve of that one more now actually. I didn't see the irony of the situation at first. Panini!🥪 12:49, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
