Talk:Uline Arena

message: As a longtime Washingtonian, I was informed as a youth that it was pronounced YOU-LINE arena.  But, since the place was named for Miguel Uline, I guess it should have been properly pronounced OOO-LEEN-UH arena.  Nobody, but nobody, spoke Spanish (or Hispanish, as George W. Bush once remarked) in D.C. in 1956.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.75.104.219 (talk) 04:51, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Talk:The Furies Collective

message: There's a lot of information that could be added to this article. I would recommend adding information about each of the members and their contribution to the Furies Collective. There also isn't any reference to Lesbian Feminism, which was the whole idea behind the group, and "political lesbianism" versus romantic lesbianism is a differentiation that would drastically improve the article.

message: Hi! The WHHA is a client of mine, and I've drafted an updated version of this article in my sandbox. Typically I would created a marked up version of this mockup with all the changes from the current article annotated, but in this case I can't because it's a complete rewrite of the existing article. Changes include:
*Adding an infobox
*Adding sources and citations throughout
*Organizing into sections
*Fleshing out history and scope of current activities based on available sources
*Rewriting in accordance with sources and with attention to avoiding plagiarism
Sorry this one's a bit tougher to review, but I think it's a big improvement! Looking forward to your feedback. Mary Gaulke (talk) 04:20, 8 February 2020 (UTC)

message: The East Room is used a bazillion times for receptions, meetings, and so on. Most of these are neither notable nor encyclopedic. Treaty signings, landmark legislation signings, and the like are notable and encyclopedic. A contributor added a reception for young people in the East Room in 2018, with a citation. Citation or not, that doesn't make the event notable as it doesn't rise to level of treaties and landmark legislation. - Tim1965 (talk) 15:05, 30 October 2018 (UTC)

Talk:State Dining Room of the White House

message: I suggest this page is moved to 'White House State Dining Room' or something similar because there must be thousands of state dining rooms around the world. I cam here looking for information on Baroque state suites, hoping for a little more info than is at State room. I would suggest that if individual rooms of the White House are to have pages of their own, then a template is made such as at Winter Palace, and rooms are titled, for example, White Hall of the Winter Palace because there must be dozens of White Halls around the world.

Talk:Cabinet Room (White House)

message: Over the last 3 years images featuring individuals have been added to the White House room articles. The room articles are primarily about the architecture and decorative arts of these rooms. While some text describing historic events that have happened in a particular room are important, if the event is significant enough to have its own article (Partial Test Ban Treaty) the photograph is more appropriately placed there with a link in the article to the White House room article. 
There are an abundant number of photographs showing the rooms without people, where the focus is on the architecture and decorative arts. The emphasis in adding a photograph is to illustrate the room and its furnishings, not an individual. If you must add images of people, please add them in the gallery feature. CApitol3 (talk)
:For this article, it should include at least one image with the room being used for its designated function. The standard choice would be a general view with the current cabinet. -- 签名 sig at  13:35, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

message: :"Even before President Nixon's formal naming of the Roosevelt Room a tradition existed of Democratic administrations hanging Alfred Jonniaux's portrait of FDR over the mantel with Teddy Roosevelt's equestrian portrait by Tade Styka titled "Rough Rider" hung on the south wall.

Given that the club was founded shortly after the Civil War, within a week or so of Lee's January 19th birthday, and that is is unenlighteded enough not to admit women until 1994, the Lee version seems plausible.
