message: This page says tolls are collected east bound only. The New York State Bridge Authority article says "The Bridge Authority charges an auto toll of $1 in both directions". Which is right? --agr 20:26, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:NY Waterway logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use    rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:43, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:NY Waterway logo.gif

message: The image :Image:Nywaterwaylogo.png is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here.  In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page.  Please check
:* That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
:* That this article is linked to from the image description page.
The following images also have this problem:

message: :Also did some reorganization. Could be expanded.
:Also, is "cable maintenance" section appropriate? What about footings, pavement, paint job, yellow lines, etc.? It all seems kind of equally  irrelevant to me, but I won't touch it unless somebody else agrees.
:Whoever did photos and boxes, nice job!

thread_title: Added history material

message: :The subject of this section continues to be a topic which is not in any sense "Maintenance" and therefore at minimum, carries the WRONG heading.
:As one who has taken some pains to make significant improvements to this article recently, my personal view remains that this information is entirely irrelevant to a general treatment of the subject.
:I do think the segment is now marginally improved. But it continues to beg the OBVIOUS question regarding the identity of the mystery "material." 
:I don't expect to delete the segment  --- but could reasonably hope a better justification could be made for its inclusion -- partly in the form of greater quality of information.

message: The initial news stories (like this one) on October 2nd indicated the Bear Mountain Bridge's name had changed to the Purple Heart Veterans Memorial Bridge. However a later reliable news story indicates the name is merely ceremonial. I am therefore adjusting the article to reflect that, however I have started this discussion for the input of other editors. Since the Purple Heart designation is ceremonial rather than an official name change after all, the infobox title should remain the Bear Mountain Bridge.
However, it should be stated that WP:COMMONNAME extends to article titles only. It is well established precedent that bridges, tunnels and other infrastructure infoboxes reflect the official name with a commonly used other name being mentioned secondarily. Changing all cited articles to fit one's narrative (see Triborough Bridge, Brooklyn–Battery Tunnel and Tappan Zee Bridge (2017–present)) does not change the actual precedent.
