message: All members listed should have verifiable sources demonstrating that they are or have been members and, if they have no associated article, that they are notable. Fæ (talk) 21:27, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Citations needed for members

message: The NYAC's membership leans significantly toward Catholics, and many prominent church figures including Cardinal Dolan are members.  Should anything be said about this topic in the article?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.125.172.194 (talk) 17:38, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: "Catholic" club

message: As of 6/25/14, at least half the NYAC entry is devoted to restrictions against blacks and Jews in the membership.  This is ridiculous and the page no longer serves its purpose.  Initially I am going to move these to the bottom but suggest they would be better served as a separate article entirely.  Currently looks like someone with a vendetta against the club is trying to gate crash the page.  155.201.34.51 (talk) 18:58, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It all is properly sourced, to high-level RSs, but I agree that we need to bulk up the rest of the history (which is where it belongs) with other stuff to address your point about the percentage treatment.  I'll look to find more material for that section for balance over the next week or so, but can't see moving or deleting what is there. The provision you point to is RS-supported (e.g, see here). --Epeefleche (talk) 23:41, 25 June 2014 (UTC)

text: As noted above, you should not remove text that is properly sourced, to high-level RSs.  And as indicated above, I agree that we need to bulk up the rest of the history section (which is where it belongs--obviously, this is part of the history of the club ... no need to hide it by moving it down away from the history) with other stuff to address your point about the percentage treatment. I started to look to address that, and began expanding the history, but was distracted by travel and other matters.  Much, much more needs to be done.  But please take this as a caution not to delete RS-supported text. Epeefleche (talk) 20:52, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

text: Hello Mr. IP.  See my comments above.  I'll fix improper deletions when I have a chance, if you don't avail yourself of the opportunity.  See also my comments re section placement.  And see also my comments re: a) expanding history on other aspects (I see you've only added more history of restrictions .. vis-a-vis women), and on referencing the unreferenced material (which should be done per wp:v; otherwise, such material is subject to deletion).

message: Can someone reference this wholly unreferenced section? Tx. --Epeefleche (talk) 23:43, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It should just be removed.

thread_title:  Mercury Cup series 

message: Post 754, on the 12th floor. Despite the number, one of the oldest, with an historic connection to the NYAC. Worth a mention? 2A00:23C3:E284:900:25B9:611:9D20:EEA8 (talk) 18:49, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: American Legion

message: Is that removal of that section okay? Just because it may not be public info doesn't mean it should be blanked? I do not know if I'm right here. What do you guys think?

thread_title:  Removal of Presidents category 

message: The Mercury Cup section makes no sense. No other sport at NYAC has a section for every single in-house tournament. (The Mercury Cups were a tiny competition; there is no need to catalogue the results outside of [1]AskFRED.)
Are we to expect the Fall Classic squash tournament to be included as a section as well? What about the results of the Athlete's Fund golf tournament? It makes absolutely no sense to have this irrelevant (and outdated) section. 2603:7000:3AF0:8450:C145:919:AA8E:E024 (talk) 22:40, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
