@Epicgenius: Very interesting hooks! However, the copyvio percentage is slightly high. I'd suggest paraphrasing some of the quotes. Skyshiftertalk 17:58, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review Skyshifter. I've rephrased some parts of the article. However, some of the matches are direct quotes, publication titles, common phrases like "designed by Thomas W. Lamb", or proper names like "the New York Theater Organ Society" which I couldn't easily reword. (There is also something weird going on with the Earwig tool - it shows the page as having a 54.8% similarity to https://s-media.nyc.gov/agencies/lpc/lp/0656.pdf, but the list of "checked sources" shows a 29.1% similarity, which also is mostly because of the quotes and proper names.)
