Tal's Hill

  • ... that removal of Tal's Hill (pictured) was criticized as part of a trend to create uniform baseball parks? Source: Forbes
  • Reviewed: Lightning rod fashion
  • Comment: Original for 3 April (Astros opening day), ALT maybe for April Fools day.

Converted from a redirect by The C of E (talk). Self-nominated at 11:06, 3 March 2017 (UTC).


  • Symbol confirmed.svg - Length, Date, Cite, QPQ, and Earwigs check for both - I reworded the original hook a bit to make it more readable. Image appears to be freely licensed. Mifter (talk) 04:55, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Further to my comment, I think now after looking at it again, it would probably be better to use ALT1 for April Fools day as the original is a bit dull. Plus I'd also suggest that the image not be used as there are better ones in other hooks and this image doesn't really give a good view of it. The C of E God Save the Queen!

Symbol question.svg WP:EASTEREGG The link to Grassy Knoll in the article is a piped link to Dealy Plaza in Dallas, to the section on the Grassy Knoll associated with the John F. Kennedy assassination. This article does not mention Grassy Knoll anywhere except in the lead, and is not explained in the body. The sources do not mention Dallas or associate the term with the JFK assassination.— Maile (talk) 11:20, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

Template:Ping, Can you restore the tick for me please? I have made alterations in accordance with the comments above. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 21:21, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
