Talk:Fox Theatre (Detroit)

message: What is the difference between "Hindu"  and "Indian" "motifs"? I know one is a religion, the other a nationality, or 'culture', but isn't it a little redundent to use both Hindu and Indian  in describing the interior design? I don't know much about interior design, so I didn't change it, but seems rather superflerous to use each.--Mikerussell 07:11, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

message: :Image:FoxTheatre(Detroit).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 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.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:FoxTheatre(Detroit).jpg

message: Fox Theatre (Detroit, Michigan), is located at 2111 Woodward Avenue, per the NRIS entry.  The correct address is 2211 Woodward Avenue, instead, per an anonymous wikipedia editor making the correction to its article a short time ago.  
But per this Michigan government website and per the NPS's webpage for it, the address is 2111.  Also the NRHP Registration document PDF, however, the address is also 2111.  So, while it is possible that the original NRHP Registration document got it wrong, and the other webpages follow its wrong example, there exists documentation that the address is 2111.  What is the documentation that the correct address is 2211 instead? doncram (talk) 21:55, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

message: As all the photos are of the Woodward facade and many are similar, can some be eliminated?  Does anyone have photos of the lobby and auditorium or historic photos to show the various marquees or condition prior to the restoration? Goldnpuppy (talk) 15:54, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

message: the article states the the Detroit Fox Theatre has a Moller organ in it and is the last on around to still be in its original place. i believe this is mistaken. the Moller organ spoken of here is in the Atlanta Fox Theatre. because i know that the Theatre organ in Detroit is a Wurlitzer organ other wise know as the "The Mighty Wurlitzer"  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.194.1.37 (talk) 22:21, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

message: I have deleted the references to claims that the Fox Theatre in Detroit was the first "in the world" to have been built already wired for sound. The Brooklyn Paramount, also opened in late 1928, makes the same claim. In fact, the Fox Theatre in Brooklyn, which opened before both of them in August 1928, was also buiilt equipped for sound and had movietone news on its opening bill. But beating them all is the Roxy Theatre in New York which was designed for sound and was equipped with Vitaphone which was exhibited in two sound musical shorts on its opening program on March 12, 1927.
This claim sounds great and probably dates back to Fox Theatres' lavish publicity for its new Detroit theatre. But it really doesn't hold water, historically. Best, Markhh (talk) 14:34, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
