message: "In the arts of design, the draped figure supporting an acanthus-grown basket capital taking the form of a candlestick or a table-support is a familiar cliché of neoclassical decorative arts."--Filll (talk | wpc) 12:21, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Most extant examples in architecture will be from the 19th century. This period is almost completely missing from coverage in the article at the moment and that is very misleading. For example, there is no mention of their use in France.  And the form was adapted, so balconies might be supported by the top half of a figure, and so on. Figures, human and otherwise, fascinated the architects of the Art Nouveau and derivatives. This needs a fair bit of work. AJHingston (talk) 21:59, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

message: I was wondering if and how we can replace the first photo because the first thing that people see when they come to this page is a statue that is not in a Greek museum. And then move the one that is in London further down. Onoufrios d (talk) 18:14, 5 July 2019 (UTC)

message: Yes I know that Karyai and Caryae are the same thing. Most likely the editor of this article also knows that. But many, and most likely most, readers are probably less well acquainted with the classical languages and the history of the Englishing Greek names. Please choose either Karuai, or Karyai, or Caryae, and stick with it. Ideally, when first mentioning the town, also indicate the alternate spellings of its name.

message: organize the gallery somewhat, perhaps by geography, chronology could play a role, and maybe separating the more decorative ones from the architectural ones.  However before I leap in and start whipping everything around I thought I'd let you weigh in on the idea. Carptrash (talk) 18:33, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

message: So I removed the reference. This is a huge misunderstanding when it comes to the Caryatids, which are not limited to the Erechtheum, as is clear 2603:6081:8300:22CA:E135:67B0:91C6:A91 (talk) 04:14, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
