@Ganesha811: Thanks for the review. Here are my replies:
The lead para about the Ramble doesn't actually mention what it *is* now
- I clarified with additional detail, and fixed the tense.What is meant by "Its ground" in the third lead para
- yes, it was a shoreline, this is fixed now.In Notable features / Ladies Pavilion, the last two sentences raise a question
- I left out the $150,000 anonymous donation by accident.Maybe a sentence or two more on the tree-cutting and restoration controversy in the early '80s
- this was already mentioned, though in not-so-clear terms. I fixed it.My only concern here is how many of the sources are from the Central Park Conservancy
- as of now, there are only 13 out of 91 sources that are from the Conservancy. Almost all of these sources are backed up by secondary sources as well, though some of these sources appear later in the sentence or in the paragraph. epicgenius (talk) 14:18, 8 September 2019 (UTC)- Epicgenius, thank you for doing all this. Those fixes look great! I'll do a quick double check of everything and then wrap up my review. Ganesha811 (talk) 14:25, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
