Talk:Charles and Ray Eames

message: This article could use some good photos of Charles and Ray Eames (there are wonderful ones!) Can someone look into this?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.32.241.66 (talk) 22:10, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: some important concepts that I think would be nice to include:
 discussion concerning the focus on process 
banana leaf parable (can this be taken from an audio and translated to text?)
design diagram, at least a description of it.
host / guest relationshihp?
perhaps it all could fall under a heading of "design philosophy"?
also.. most architects (Bucky Fuller, F L Wright, Eero Saarinen etc ) have a list of 'works' .. this as a long list for eames, but probably worthwhile. request for comments. .patrick
:: I added a bunch of that stuff .. if anyone has any pictures they would like to add that would be great! -- Dwxyzq 13:02, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  some ideas to be included? 

message: This article should be renamed to Charles and Ray Eames or just Eames. They worked together on most of the projects and she played an important part in most of them. This bias is often seen when talking about great men. Christo and Jeanne-Claude (check the redirect) is working together, but usually you just remember Christo. The Eames Gallery calls itself Charles and Ray Eames Online. Wikipedia has just a stub on Ray Eames and a stub on Charles and Ray Eames. As it is now Charles takes all the credit. All the outside resources are named just Eames, and that is for a reason.DrNumLock 00:45, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've history merged the three articles according to these comments. Ray's section should still be expanded; and more editing, writing, references and images are probably needed overall to improve the article, but at least Charles doesn't seem to recieve too much credit and throw off the balance with separate articles. There are some photos of the Eames House at that article and the Commons, maybe one should be added to this article. dv dv  dv d 02:13, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Good question - consensus was to not to have separate pages for Charles and Ray - the article isn't so long as needing to be split with the sections on Charles or Ray summarized. Couples who have worked together and are notable for their work as a couple are often combined into one article.  Having one's own article doesn't make a person more "notable."  Since Ray and Charles careers intersected, it is hard to have multiple articles without running into the problem of content forking.  If in time the article grows (size of article is over 60-100Kb), a decision can be made to split the article, however at this time (size of article is 30Kb) there is no need to split the article.

message: :Image:Charles and Ray Eames-Silhouettes-Communications primer 256kb.mp4.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: I think both were designers and as such should be given equal importance. The article would be renamed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 35.11.38.122 (talk) 01:44, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article renamed, equally importance 

message: It seems to me that there should be a Charles and Ray Eames category. Does anyone have a rationale not to create one? If no comments to the contrary in a few days, then I'm just going to make one. KConWiki (talk) 05:52, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Eames Category?

message: From the birth/death dates (and nee' for Ray) you can infer they were a couple but shouldn't the lede mention this specifically?  There are other relationships possible and it isn't until you read down further that you can be sure.  I would expect to find something like "a husband/wife design team", or "a couple who collaborated on design".  I would make the change myself but I am unsure of what is appropriate in this case.
