[Matplotlib-users] trouble removing tick labels

[Eric Firing]

Jon,

If you are removing the tick labels it suggests that the y-axes are all 
matched, in which case using

fig, axs = plt.subplots(2, 2, sharey=True)

should do what you want.

If not, please supply a minimal but complete example illustrating the 
problem.
