Hyde Park NPOV concerns
I'm posting this to inform interested editors that I've tagged the Hyde Park, Boston for NPOV concerns. See my post on at Talk:Hyde Park, Boston. Jessintime (talk) 15:53, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
Better higher education subsection photo?
Boston ought to have a cornucopia of options for illustrating the higher education subsection. That makes it unfortunate that the current photo, an aerial photo of Harvard Business School that's too zoomed out for readers to make out much detail without expanding it, is the best we've been able to do. Would anyone like to suggest alternatives? Sdkb (talk) 19:17, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
FAR
The layout of this article is awful. The lead is too long, this has a citation needed tag, and it possesses way too many single/two-sentence paragraphs. This article could also use a thorough copyedit; this would be an FAC quickfail with today's standards. Unless someone is committed to fixing this, I am going to have to submit this to WP:FAR. 750h+ | Talk 16:33, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
- At least this article (seemingly) doesn't suffer from ownership issues like New York City did prior to several editors' interventions, so there won't be any resistance to the plan to make it a lot less crappy to read. You have my support for a FAR. Seasider53 (talk) 19:49, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
- Template:Ping I see that the problems outlined in this notice are still present in the article. Are either of you interested in fixing up the article, or would you like to nominate this to WP:FAR? Z1720 (talk) 16:32, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- I have started looking into issues with the article (including shortening the lead and addressing single-sentence paragraphs). I am contacting WikiProjects Boston and WikiProjects Massachusetts to see if anyone else will help out, so I would hold off on any FAR nomination for now. PentawingTalk 05:22, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- So far, I have already taken care of the lead, citations, and many single sentence paragraphs. A major amount of copyediting has been done. If there are still problems can you specify where they are? PentawingTalk 07:24, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- great work. but i have added 17 cn tags, can those be addressed? 750h+ 09:41, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Change in WP:USCITIES
I used your article as a model for Minneapolis, but received numerous objections to the use of an "official name". Please make your comments at the WikiProject before this change becomes part of the guidelines. Thanks. -SusanLesch (talk) 18:01, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
