An edit from 2022 made by User:BrownHairedGirl seems to have permanently dislocated an image in the article on West Sayville, New York, and nothing I've been able to do has reversed this error. I was about to contact her on this, only to find out she was Semi-Retired from Wikipedia. I don't believe the edit was malicious or even intentional. Can anybody else fix this, because putting the image back in its proper place has been proven to be an exceptional pain in the ass. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 12:38, 22 October 2025 (UTC)

It has been fixed. Bearian (talk) 03:43, 17 November 2025 (UTC)

The article List of property developers based in New York has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Tagged as Unreferenced for 6 years. No other language has a reliably sourced article from which to translate. Zero hits on Google: appears to be entirely original research.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hello, WikiProject New York. I recently compiled an exhaustive list of Wikipedia pages pertaining to United States gubernatorial elections which need tables detailing general election voting statistics by county. If anyone wants to help out with this task of adding stat tables, I'd gladly welcome the assistance. Here is the New York list, and all 49 other states have their own likewise lists on that page. Thank you. Mungo Kitsch (talk) 22:23, 4 December 2025 (UTC)

For WikiProjects that participate in rating articles, the banners for talk pages usually say something like:

• "This article has been rated as Low-importance on the importance scale."

There is a proposal to change the default wording on the banners to say "priority" instead of "importance". This could affect the template for your group. Please join the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Council#Proposal to update wording on WikiProject banners.

Project members are invited to participate in the Destubathon of the Americas, a contest/editathon which will run from May 1 to May 31. The goal is to destub as many of our 475,000+ stubs for the Americas (from Alaska down to Chile) as possible. A good chance to have fun in expanding many of our old stale stubs and win up to $2680 in Amazon vouchers for expanding stub articles. Sign up in the Contestants/participants section on the contest page if interested. Even if not interested in prizes you are still warmly welcome to participate in it as an editathon! Hopefully we can achieve something significant in the month of May together! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:07, 14 April 2026 (UTC)
