Review (criteria)	Comment it looks like there is a categorization error. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 07:47, 26 December 2020 (UTC)  Comment I don't know what to do here. Later known as “The Ellis Island of the West, in the the 1840s - 1920s Galveston was a major immigration port before Ellis Island even existed [1]. This building was build as and used as an immigration and deportee-staging facility until about 1940 when it was converted for use to a U.S. Customs Office. No category exists for its original use/purpose. Others referred to it and created the Category Custom House which is correct for its later use. Edited to add: an alternative is for me to create a new Category where this would be the only image. -- Jim Evans (talk) 12:05, 26 December 2020 (UTC)  Comment Geocode is missing. --Palauenc05 ([[User talk:Palauenc05|⧼T<span class="template-ping">@Jim Evans: </span>alkpagelinktext⧽]]) 09:16, 27 December 2020 (UTC) Fixed Sorry about that. Must have been a slip between the cup and the lip. -- Jim Evans (talk) 11:27, 27 December 2020 (UTC)  Comment OK for this issue. However, I won't support it until Archaeo's point is settled. --Palauenc05 (talk) 09:03, 28 December 2020 (UTC)  Question I don't know what's needed to resolve the issue. Do you (or anyone) have suggestions? -- Jim Evans (talk) 12:01, 28 December 2020 (UTC)  Comment It's listed on the National Register of Historic Places as "U.S. Customhouse". Doesn't that establish clearly which name the category and scope should be under? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:03, 28 December 2020 (UTC) Fixed Monsieur Archaeodontosaurus was correct. I think he was testing me and I finally tumbled to the problem. -- Jim Evans (talk) 02:12, 29 December 2020 (UTC)  Question What happened to the other photos that were in the previous scope? They were in Houston, right, that was the problem? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:52, 29 December 2020 (UTC)  Support Perfect now --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 06:40, 29 December 2020 (UTC)  Comment @Ikan Kekek: Yes. People add categories to my pictures. Someone had erroneously added that one and when I went there it looked like the same building with different paint. -- Jim Evans (talk) 17:42, 29 December 2020 (UTC)  Support Useful. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:23, 29 December 2020 (UTC) Result: 1 support, 0 oppose => promoted.
