This looks an interesting article. I have not reviewed an architecture topic before so I will take a look at other examples to see what best practice is before reviewing it. simongraham (talk) 17:56, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

Review

The article is clearly written and covers an interesting topic. It is stable, 96.1% of authorship is one user, Epicgenius. It is currently ranked a C class article, assessed on 17 July 2021 by Whispyhistory. Extensive editing has been carried out on 15 July 2021.

I have had a look and everything seems to be in order. Images are tagged with appropriate licenses under Creative Commons. The page has been checked with Writix, which confirms content is free of plagiarism. The article uses newspapers like the New York Times and New York Herald Tribune which meet WP:NMEDIA.

My one suggestion is regarding the citations in the Infobox. One of them is referenced in the main body and another is not. Consider removing these in line with WP:INFOBOXREF and adding a referenced mention of the reference number in the main body.

@Epicgenius: Another piece of great work. Please ping me when you would like me to look again. simongraham (talk) 02:10, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

Simongraham, thanks for the review. I've copied that citation to the main body for the date. However, the landmark number may be harder to mention without breaking the flow of the article (and similar good articles on NYC landmarks include it only in the infobox). It seems INFOBOXREF still allows this: "If the material requires a reference [...] and the information does not also appear in the body of the article, the reference should be included in the infobox".

@Epicgenius: That looks good. I can see that there are a lot of Equitable Buildings. Should the redlinked Equitable Building (which links to a deleted page) link to one of these? simongraham (talk) 17:07, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

Simongraham, it is separate from all of the buildings listed on the page. 1285 Avenue of the Americas did briefly redirect to one of these subjects but was deleted because it pointed to an incorrect target. There is currently no information on 1285 Avenue of the Americas on any article, but I have enough sources to prove that it's a notable subject, and I plan to create that page soon.

@Epicgenius: Thank you. I will complete the assessment. simongraham (talk) 17:20, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
