Hola-- You just reverted an edit I made regarding the title and description of the William Reimann bollards. This is the name I've always known the pieces by, and whoever put that information up initially--well, I couldn't check out their citation because the link is dead. I guess this is a "needs citation" for the title, and I don't know where to get that. So I guess just leave it. But the description--you are better off putting what I wrote (or rephrasing it how you like if you don't like what I wrote) and saying "citation needed," because what is there is just a guess from the person who first filled in this field, as best as I can tell.
Is this the correct place to be writing this? I've been working on stuff here since the corona shut ins started, so am still figuring things out. If the title and description need to stay the same for now, no issue. I'm working on a lot of different art topics right now, so--it can wait. It's not like it's bothered anyone however long it's been up there. Sicklemoon ( talk) 04:56, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
And another thought--I've been updating the List of public art in Boston. Would you be interested in looking over that? I also put the biography for Susumu Shingu up--that definitely needs improvement because there's just not a lot online for these pre-Internet generation artists. I'd also add (and evidently it is too late here for me to be typing anything correctly--there is a List of public art in Cambridge, Massachusetts which I find well-meaning but somewhat grim. Do you have any recommendations for that? Sicklemoon ( talk) 05:01, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, firstly **thank you** for all your assistance under the wikicommons"Cat:Aerial photographs of Boston from the US National Archives series: "Airscapes" of American and Foreign Areas"" that was quick. Kudos!
Next reason for my note: Wondering if perhaps you've come across the following information. Do you know what would have been the name of the rail yard at the current day Boston Prudential Center before the 1950s? I've searched a few different articles and saw no mention (i.e. the Boston and Albany Railroad. I see that after Back Bay there was a forgotten 'Huntington Ave / Trinity Place' stations. Then, a ways- down the line in Allston was the Beacon Park Yards.
The following photo was the one which got me thinking: * [1] if you notice, the Turnpike is all rail. :-! I've also heard about a "Mechanic's Hall" for a long time that may have been around there but no idea what that Rail Yard would have been called. CaribDigita ( talk) 15:36, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi; I'd thought to inquire about service patterns for Hyde Park Station and what's considered too in detail. I understand that listing that service is usually nonstop between Ruggles and Readville stations in their respective infoboxes was pushing it, though I'd like to ask what makes it not a true one-way station for the Franklin line.
I initially had this service pattern pointed out in the station's infobox as the upcoming (Summer 2020) schedule does not list any trains stopping inbound toward South Station, a trait shared with The October 2019 schedule (which was the last schedule in effect pre-COVID), as well as a 2016 Franklin Line Schedule that I used to make sure that Franklin trains only stopping outbound to Forge Park is not a new behavior.
Additionally, Amtrak Palmetto service is noted as one way (toward Savannah) in the infoboxes for New Brunswick and Princeton Junction stations, and one way (toward New York Penn Station) on the page for New Carrollton station, which gave me the impression that services that are usually scheduled to be one way should be listed as such, even if other services using the station are through-running.
For now, I did remove Foxboro from the termini listed at Hyde Park, as the Franklin trains serving the station on the upcoming schedule (7717, 7721, 7723, and 729) all terminate at Forge Park. your input on the matter, since it helps improve my judgment on these kinds of things in the future.

Hi, you reverted my changes to this article and I'm not entirely sure I understand the rationale. As you'll note if you view the diff:
I believe, with the exception of my splitting of the infinitive in to eventually be converted all of my changes were non-controversial and so was surprised to see the reversion. I'm interested in reaching consensus on the above before making any further changes to avoid edit warring. Itsfini ( talk) 00:13, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
text that looks like this) rather than bold. Bold text is generally reserved for emphasis. Cheers, Pi.1415926535 ( talk) 00:46, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
Question: what do the coordinate you're adding to the removed statues refer to? We might need a "former location" paramter for the infobox for these to be right. It's sort of an interesting question, as historically the information is relevant, but it's inaccurate in terms of the present as the statues have been removed.

This is the name I've always known the pieces by, and whoever put that information up initially--well, I couldn't check out their citation because the link is dead. I guess this is a "needs citation" for the title, and I don't know where to get that. So I guess just leave it. But the description--you are better off putting what I wrote (or rephrasing it how you like if you don't like what I wrote) and saying "citation needed," because what is there is just a guess from the person who first filled in this field, as best as I can tell.
Is this the correct place to be writing this? I've been working on stuff here since the corona shut ins started, so am still figuring things out.

Perhaps one day we can make things like this sensitive to that. Daniel Case ( talk) 05:28, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
Hi! Do you think you can withdraw this and resubmit them individually? It is going to be extremely confusing discussing four (or is it five?) statues all at once. New London is notable, I found good sourcing. Thanks. ThatMontrealIP ( talk) 00:18, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
On 30 June 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Ipswich Street line, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that streetcars on the Ipswich Street line ran on both Boylston Street and Boylston Street? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Ipswich Street line. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, Ipswich Street line), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hi, you reverted my changes to this article and I'm not entirely sure I understand the rationale. As you'll note if you view the diff:
I believe, with the exception of my splitting of the infinitive in to eventually be converted all of my changes were non-controversial and so was surprised to see the reversion. I'm interested in reaching consensus on the above before making any further changes to avoid edit warring. Itsfini ( talk) 00:13, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

Question: what do the coordinate you're adding to the removed statues refer to? We might need a "former location" paramter for the infobox for these to be right. It's sort of an interesting question, as historically the information is relevant, but it's inaccurate in terms of the present as the statues have been removed.

I've asked at Template talk:MAMilitary if I can create a new template for the former Massachusetts military facilities that you removed from MAMilitary. RobDuch ( talk· contribs) 08:09, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
Pi, in this revert you assert that subway is capped in Huntington Avenue subway, both in contemporary docs and modern books. I'm not seeing that. See older and modern books. But maybe I don't have the docs you're referring to; are they accessible? Dicklyon ( talk) 23:02, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
