ALT1:... that a $100-million donation to the Central Park Conservancy in 2012 was the largest ever to New York City's park system at the time? Source:
NY Times
Article mentions a large number of living people, but I don't see any
WP:BLP issues.
Earwig
calls out a number of issues. Some of them are bloggy-looking things that may well have copied from us. One of the callouts is the NY Times, who certainly didn't copy from us; in that case, it's mostly just a few quotes, which deserve better attribution. There's also some from The Post, which I'm going to be generous and classify as a newspaper rather than a bloggy-looking thing, and we've got some direct copies from there. These should all be investigated deeper.
The hooks are correctly formatted, interesting, accurate, cited, and neutral.
There's no image associated with this entry.
I'll leave the hook and image reviews to somebody else.
Could another person look at the hook and image reviews? Thanks.

Also, thanks
RoySmith for doing the first part of the review. I will fix the copyvio concerns, but it looks like the biggest violations are from forums that seem to have reverse copied from the Wikipedia page.

I've got more time now, so I've done the remaining items (added to the list above). --

RoySmith: Thanks. I put the appropriate attribution to the quotes where possible. In the case of the YouTube/blog links, I think they copied from us, rather than the other way around.

I've improved the attribution of the NY Times quote. Looks good to go now. --
