Just to let you know of this deletion discussion as it needs more discussion and consensus. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:25, 21 June 2026 (UTC)

[edit]
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war, according to the reverts you've made to The Alienist (TV series). This means that you are repeatedly reverting content back to how you think it should be, despite knowing that other editors disagree. Once it is known that there is a disagreement, users are expected to collaborate with others, avoid editing disruptively, and try to reach a consensus – rather than repeatedly reverting the changes made by other users.
Important points to note:
- Edit warring is disruptive behavior – regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not engage in edit warring – even if you believe that you are right.
You need to discuss the disagreement on the article's talk page and work towards a revision that represents consensus among everyone involved. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution if discussions reach an impasse. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to engage in edit warring, you may be blocked from editing. MarconiCheese (talk) 21:24, 28 June 2026 (UTC)

[edit]These pieces aren't merely "news" ("WP:NOTNEWS") but about the design and functionality of the stations, which is discussed in the article at several turns and is thus on-topic. Where else would the content belong? Metrolinx isn't ignoring it; it sounds like there will be some redesigning.
Also, I wrote of the new section "to be expanded", but you didn't give me a chance to do that. Just found a few more sources this morning.Empty desk (talk) 22:40, 4 July 2026 (UTC)
- As it was worded, it was simply reporting one instance of one complaint by one group. This is classic WP:NOTNEWS (and also WP:UNDUE): we don't list every time some subject received a complaint by some group. There would need to be a hell of a lot more discussion of this in 3rd party, reliable sources for it to warrant inclusion, and (as previously mentioned), there would need to be sustained coverage of the issue, not just a flurry of reports of a handful of complaints in a relatively short period of time. —01:49, 5 July 2026 (UTC) Joeyconnick (talk) 01:49, 5 July 2026 (UTC)
Reading the WP:NOTNEWS rulesas linked, the relevant portions of which are as follows:
"Even when citing recent news articles as sources, ensure the Wikipedia articles themselves are not…News reports: Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of persons and events. While news coverage can be useful source material for encyclopedic topics, most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion and Wikipedia is not written in news style".
This is about the notability of article topics, not what's included in them. Line 5 is a very significant topic and it's okay to be detailed.
Looking at the "Construction timeline", there are a good number of one-off events, including defects in construction that were fixed, accidents, etc. because it's a history. There won't be "sustained coverage" because the problems were solved.
"As it was worded, it was simply reporting one instance of one complaint by one group. "
It's two disability groups, one independent critic, the city council, the TTC and Metrolinx. Here It sounds like the stations' design will be modified as a result of the criticism. That's very much in line with the construction history generally, so maybe that's a better place to put it.Empty desk (talk) 02:33, 6 July 2026 (UTC)
