Sagebrush posted:this is the internet. there isn't a page budget or layout restriction here. there should be a collapsible layman's explanation for every overly-technical article (it could even start collapsed to avoid offending the sperglords) and the simple english version should be a toggle at the top of every wikipedia page. I remember reading somewhere that the Simple English pages (particularly for math things) are not intended to explain things more, but are meant to use simpler words that are easier for someone learning English to understand

As a result of the continued presence of the amusement park zoning lot at Bartow and Baychester Avenues, there were no restrictions on the heights of signs on that lot. In late 2017, the site's owner began erecting tall LED billboards on the lot, a move opposed by Co-op City residents since one of the billboards faced Co-op City, keeping residents awake at night.[35] The following year, residents proposed changing the lot's zoning to a standard commercial use.[36][17] A tall wind turbine was erected on the lot in December 2019.[37] The turbine toppled later that month, knocking down the billboard, but causing no injuries.[37][38]
