WikiProject New York City was featured in a WikiProject Report in the Signpost on 31 December 2012.

At Wikipedia_talk:Vital_articles/Level/5#Listing_of_I_Love_New_York 5, we are discussing the proper listing of I Love New York  5, which is the famous first use of the Heart symbol  5 as a logograph for the word love, leading to ubiquitous use of I ❤... in marketing materials worldwide. It got listed as a specific work of visual arts. I want to make sure that no one has a problem with moving it from specific works of art. If anyone has an opinion, drop a note there.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 01:22, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Unreferenced articles | February 2024 Backlog Drive

There is a substantial backlog of unsourced articles on Wikipedia, especially for United States-related articles! The purpose of this drive is to add sources to these articles and make a meaningful impact towards improving Wikipedia as a whole. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles cited. Remember to tag your edit summary with [[WP:FEB24]], both to advertise the event and tally the points later using Edit Summary Search. Interested in taking part? Sign up here.

I just created a draft for Nir Meir, a New York City real estate developer who was recently arrested for an $86 million fraud scheme. Thriley (talk) 22:58, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Somebody on panoramio misidentified a view of Long Island City from the East River as being up in Haverstraw, New York! I added a fact tag to the image, but nobody seems to be paying attention. -------User:DanTD (talk) 00:56, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Three editors are now splitting the article and making massive changes and deletions. One of the editors does not leave edit summaries even for massive deletions or massive changes, even though they were reported to ANI 12 days ago for similar behavior on this same article [1]. In my opinion, more eyes need to be on the article and on what is being done. Thank you. Softlavender (talk) 01:09, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Have you tried DRN? voorts (talk/contributions) 01:48, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, because it's not a dispute issue, it's a behavior issue and a lack of pagewatchers and eyes. It's particularly disturbing when this is a WP:VITAL article that is being fairly indiscriminately gutted with almost no outside views. Softlavender (talk) 01:55, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
