thread_title:  Copyvio 

message: So I've been making improvements to the article over the past week or two and I'm now thinking about creating a separate page for The 5th Avenue Musical Theatre Company so that this article can be dedicated to the architecture and building facts while the article on The 5th Avenue Musical Theatre Company can focus on the details around productions, seasons, and dates/links significant to specific productions.  What do you think?Skotywa 19:22, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Theater Company Page 

message: I've done some work around citing references for all of the content that predated my contributions and I have some more ref links (from non-5th Avenue sites now) that I'll be adding over the next day or two. At that time I'm planning on removing the "cite references" header. I don't know if I have the authority to do this, so we'll see what happens. At any rate, once I get some 3rd party refs in there in addition to the refs I've already added, I believe that should be sufficient to remove the header. If I don't have the authority, I'll repent and not do it again. Skotywa 19:29, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Citing Refs 

message: I am glad to report that this article nomination for good article status has been promoted. This is how the article, as of February 1, 2008, compares against the  six good article criteria:
:1. Well written?: Pass
:2. Factually accurate?: Pass
:3. Broad in coverage?: Pass
:4. Neutral point of view?: Pass
:5. Article stability? Pass
:6. Images?: Pass
Article is very good and may still benefit from further expansion. A small copyedit may also benefit the article.  If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to Good article reassessment. Thank you to all of the editors who worked hard to bring it to this status, and congratulations.— Tarret talk 15:10, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This is amazing.  Who would have thought that after months of being away, the day I come back to see what has become of the article, I find that it was nominated for and been assessed as a good article?  Thanks Skotywa!   Ltvine | Talk 02:29, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: So now the question is whether or not we should try for featured article.  I went over the criteria and it seems like it's worth a try.  I'm going to wait to hear back from other contributors before I try that though.  I'm just a novice at this stuff.  --Skotywa (talk) 05:02, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Successful [[Wikipedia:Good articles|good article]] nomination

message: Over the past 1.5 months, I've done a lot of research and made a number of additions to the article as well as overall article clean up.  Here are some specific discussion points I know of, or that remain unresolved from earlier posts (sorry if I repeat my older posts on some of these):
*I've found a home for all remaining references in the lead section and have moved all of them to appropriate spots in the body.  I have also added new material to the lead section matching significant points I've added to the article body.
*I still can't find anything on the "Gateway to the Orient" idea.  I'm not sure how much it limits the article to not completely explore this point, but without a source to research, I'm at a loss.  I've officially given up on this TODO.  I feel the article is sufficiently complete without it.
*I found enough information about the marquee to include it in the article metioning both when it was taken down and when an unsuccessful attempt was made to bring it back.  I think this TODO item is closed.
*The "Magical Sign of a Wonderful Time" moniker is now incorporated into the article with references.  I consider this TODO closed as well.
*I've made a number of other additions to the history section including lots of additional points in the the 'Decline and restoration' and 'Post-1980 history' sections.  I'm not 100% confident with my prose in these sections.  They might benefit from further review.
*I've added a new (now rather lengthy) section on the musical company.  Again, my prose here may be weak.  Of all my earlier listed ideas (in old talk page posts) about the section, the only one I haven't completed was the inclusion of the mission statement.  I'm still undecided about whether or not it is needed.  I've considered adding it as a quotation in the Origin section.  At this point though, I feel the article is complete without it's inclusion.  Let me know if you disagree.
*Possible new concern: The Significance section is very short containing only one paragraph of 3 sentences in length.  I'm not sure if this will be raised as a concern during WP:FAC review.  It seems fine to me to have this section as is.  There may be more to add here in the future anyway.  If it comes up as a concern, I'll ask for suggestions on where to move the information to.
*Possible new concern: I added back the picture of Relief at entry taken by Ltvine.  I found it while reviewing the history of the article.  I believe it was origianally moved to make way for the more significant gurdian lion picture which I agree with.  It fits better at that point in the article.  Now that the article's length has increased, I felt it made sense to add back the relief picture and felt that it might fit in the restoration section (even though no specific mention of the relief is made in the section).  Please let me know if you disagree with this reasoning.
*Possible new concern: The article's length is now at 47 kilobytes which according to Wikipedia:Article size is getting close to being too long and therefore it may be in need of splitting.  That said, a large portion of the total article size (I'd say about 1/3) is found in the Productions by season section.  Of that, only the two most recent tables are expanded by default.  All of the rest are hidden.  Given that, I'm confident that this article is not in need of splitting and that the article's readable length is acceptable even with some potential future growth.
Given all of this, I'm becoming confident again that this article may be ready for submission as a featured article.  I'd like to submit this artcile for review as a featured article when it's convenient for more people than just myself to be available for quick responses to concerns raised in the reveiw.
I'm coming up on a time where I'm going to be relatively busy with life and may not be as available as I need to respond to comments from the review.  In a few weeks that will pass, and at that time I will likely submit it as a featured article candidate and attempt to resolve any concerns myself.  Please speak up if you'd like to help with that and when would be good for you.--Skotywa (talk) 23:31, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
