This looks like another article on New York theatres by Epicgenius and so, if my experience to anything to go by, is likely to be close to Good Article status already. I will start my review soon. simongraham (talk) 04:46, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

[edit]

This is a stable and well-written article. 95.6% of authorship is by Epicgenius. It is currently ranked B class and was a DYK nomination on 28 December.

  • The article is of reasonable length with 5,577 words of readable prose, plus a referenced list of notable productions and an infobox.
  • It is written in a summary style, consistent with relevant Manuals of Style.
  • Copyvio shows 15% likelihood of copyright violation with an article in Playbill on the venue. The trouble seems to be the names of performances rather than anything more concerning.
  • Citations seem to be thorough, although some seem a bit excessive. Is this WP:CITEKILL? For example, the statement "The Nederlanders and Lane indicated their intent to restore the theater while developing the Eighth Avenue site as an apartment complex." has three references.
  • Some references are actually two (for example 312) which helps remove the clutter in the list of productions. Is that worth replicating across the section?
  • All references appear to be from reputable sources.
  • Images have suitable Creative Commons or Public Domain licenses. More than half of them are marked as Epicgenius' own work. Thank you for including them.
  • In the lead there are two periods after Warner Bros.
  • "All of the second-story windows are six-over-six double hung windows, placed within terracotta surrounds." Is the "of" necessary?
  • Is Chanin singular or plural? Both are used. For example, "Chanin hired Herbert Krapp" and "The Chanins retained Krapp" are in the same paragraph.
  • I cannot see any other obvious grammar and spelling issues.
