Image requested
[edit]Hello Epicgenius, you requested a photo for this article. I want help but English my second language. What you mean with "photos of the streetcar operations"? Can you write simple and clear, please?

- @Drabdullayev17: I was requesting any historical pictures of the streetcars that used to run along the modern Q65 route. However, since Commons only accepts pictures that exist under a free license, I wondered if anyone had uploaded a freely-licensed image of the former streetcars. The Commons pictures are all about the buses. epicgenius (talk) 13:28, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

- Opening for consideration. Courcelles (talk) 19:07, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
- "at the edge of the Long Island Sound.[6] The line served the College Point Ferry or 99th Street Ferry, which ran to East 99th Street in the Upper East Side of Manhattan.[1][15]" Sure about that being the Sound, and not the East River?
- "The routes proceed south to Jamaica Avenue, then west to Sutphin Boulevard, terminating at Supthin Boulevard and 94th Avenue underneath the Jamaica terminal for the LIRR and AirTrain JFK.[4][16][17][18][19][20]" How many of the six citations do we really need? Either space them out or cut them down.
- Explain who Robert Moses was, i.e., his title in the LaGuardia administration -- did he even have one?
- According to our own article, La Guardia is misspelled? I didn't know this either.
- "moved from 160th Street and Jamaica Avenue to Parsons Boulevard and Jamaica Avenue.[34]" Stupid question time, did this make the route longer or shorter? (I.e. specify either shortened or extended.
- refs 1 and 14; archive.org is not a print publication, so no italics.
- Whereas refs 21 and 24, the NYT is a print publication, so italics...
- Images are fine.
That's all I've got. Courcelles (talk) 19:24, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
- @Courcelles: Thank you for the review. I have fixed all the issues you mentioned. By the way, Sutphin was misspelled, and Parsons Blvd is one block west of 160th Street. epicgenius (talk) 01:04, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
- Looks good, promoting. Courcelles (talk) 13:14, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
