{{edit COI}}

Hi! I'm a COI editor for CHOP, a client of my employer, Porter Novelli. Requesting some updates to this article:

• In the infobox, lead, and at the beginning of "Facilities", update the number of beds from 594 to 692.{{cite web |title=Hospital and CHOP Care Network Statistics |url=https://www.chop.edu/about-us/annual-report-of-our-financials/hospital-statistics |website=The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia |access-date=March 3, 2025 |language=en}} (I know primary sources are sometimes acceptable for certain fundamental info; if an independent source is required, Becker's Hospital Review has an older (but still more recent than the currently used) figure of 667.{{cite news |last1=Gamble |first1=Molly |title=30 largest children's hospitals |url=https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/rankings-and-ratings/largest-childrens-hospitals-2024.html |access-date=August 8, 2024 |work=Becker's Hospital Review |date=February 14, 2024 |language=en-gb}})

: {{Done}}, I am not sure this needs a exact number as opposed to an approximation given that this changes rapidly, but I'm happy to take a primary source here. Rusalkii (talk) 19:27, 18 March 2025 (UTC)

• In the lead, delete "on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania". This is inaccurate; the assertion two paragraphs later that "The hospital is located next to the University of Pennsylvania" is correct. ("Fourth hospital, since 1974" in "History" also confirms this.)

: {{Not done for now}} The statement in the history section does say it's next to rather than on the campus, but that paragraph is entirely uncited. I also don't see anything in the source for the last paragraph of the lead about the location on or off campus. Happy to make this change but I'd like to see a source. Rusalkii (talk) 19:27, 18 March 2025 (UTC)

::{{replyto|Rusalkii}} Finding a media source for this was surprisingly tricky. How about this from Penn? "The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), the first pediatric hospital in the United States, is a modern, 430-bed tertiary center located adjacent to HUP" [The Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania].{{cite web |title=Penn Medicine Campus |url=https://www.pennmedicine.org/departments-and-centers/anesthesiology-and-critical-care/education-and-training/residency-program/campus |website=Penn Medicine |access-date=19 March 2025}} And thanks for your help! Mary Gaulke (talk) 18:59, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

:::Happy to take a primary source here, seems like a straightforward WP:ABOUTSELF. I don't see how that confirms that it isn't on campus, though, without a source saying that HUP is also not on campus (and not near it, either). Rusalkii (talk) 19:19, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

:::Do you have a map of the campus clearly showing boundaries that we could locate the hospital on? We may also be able to write around this altogether and say something like "located at such and such a place" without referencing the campus in any way; given that these location claims are currently unsourced I see no reason not to remove them if there's any doubt. Rusalkii (talk) 19:25, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

::::Here are maps from the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) [https://facilities.upenn.edu/sites/default/files/pdfs/penn_campus_map_download.pdf PDF] and [https://facilities.upenn.edu/maps web link]. Here is a map from CHOP [https://www.chop.edu/philadelphia-campus/campus-maps website] and [https://www.chop.edu/sites/default/files/locations-chop-main-campus-map.pdf PDF]. UPenn owns property bordering and adjacent to CHOP properties. You could say the UPenn properties surround the CHOP's main hospital and facilities, but it's a grey area. cc {{U|MaryGaulke}} — 🌊PacificDepths (talk) 06:46, 12 May 2025 (UTC)

:I suggest cutting the Parents Magazine ranking, since the publication no longer ranks children's hospitals.

:: {{Partly done}} Parent's magazine removed, specialty ranking updated. However, I don't love the "ranked as best since 2007" phrasing, since what we have is (1) it being ranked as best in 2007, and (2) a 2024 source saying that it was ranked as one of the ten best that year, with no ordering, had been 4th the previous year, and "made the Honor Roll every year since U.S. News first started publishing it in 2009". Rewriting this as "CHOP has been ranked among the best ten children's hospitals in the United States by U.S. News & World Report since 2009". If you can find a 2008 ranking I am happy to adjust to "since 2007". Rusalkii (talk) 19:27, 18 March 2025 (UTC)

: {{Not done for now}} as a general rule, the lead should summarize the body of the article. (WP:LEAD). This does seem relevant, so I'd just add it myself somewhere in the body, but I'm not sure where a natural place would be. The organization is overall a little wonky - probably somewhere in "About", which is kind of a terrible section name but I don't have a better suggestion off the top of my head. Rusalkii (talk) 19:27, 18 March 2025 (UTC)

::{{replyto|Rusalkii}} Perhaps "Operations" is a better alternative to "About"? Mary Gaulke (talk) 19:01, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

:::So I just skimmed through some other hospital articles, and it looks like a lot of them that have this kind of section in fact title it "About", it seems to be much more common than any other name. I'm not sure if there's a reason for that but I suppose in the absence of any reason to retitle it other than "ugh" I'be changed my mind and am inclined towards keeping as is. Rusalkii (talk) 19:37, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

• The subsections of the "History" section use the word "hospital" in a confusing way – first hospital, second hospital, etc. – implying there are several hospitals. I suggest changing "hospital" to "location" in each of these titles.

: {{Done}} Rusalkii (talk) 19:27, 18 March 2025 (UTC)

• Rename the last subsection of "History" to "Fourth location 1974–2015" and split the last two paragraphs of "History" into a new subsection, "Area expansion, since 2015".
