message: He's famous for the MAYA principle - Most Advanced Yet Acceptable. A bio http://www.raymondloewy.com/about/bio.html explains, He believed that, "The adult public's taste is not necessarily ready to accept the logical solutions to their requirements if the solution implies too vast a departure from what they have been conditioned into accepting as the norm."
How should this be added to the main article? A new heading, "Design Philosophy"? It seems a new heading would require more content, but without a new heading, where else does it fit?  Turadg 18:55, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

message: :Image:Studebakerlogo1940s.gif 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 insure 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: The Coca-Cola bottle was designed by the Root Glass Company of Terre Haute, Indiana, in 1916, before Loewy ever arrived in the USA. Says so right on Coca-Cola's web site. So I took that reference out. He did work on vending machines, though. 66.188.81.194 (talk) 07:49, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm still trying to track down a reference for this, but Loewy's involvement with Coke was to design a version of the bottle that would vend easily from a machine. The original design made it difficult to dispense mechanically. --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (talk) 16:45, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

message: Cause of death is listed as 'illness' which is pretty vague. Can there be some research into what illness this was and add a section on the page? Aethalides (talk) 06:09, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

message: Would someone please re-include mention of the Google Doodle (which was blanked and not reinserted prior to the page being locked), here is the original (not by me--176.254.92.86 (talk) 18:10, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: On November 5, 2013, Loewy was honoured with a Google Doodle showing a locomotive bearing a resemblance to the K4s Pacific #3768 shroud design, using the wheels of the train to form the word Google.
