5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 19:15, 21 July 2021 (UTC).[reply]

My DYK experience is long stale, just commenting that this expansion is amazing to see in an article so old. I'm even more curious now about a building I've been in recently. Well done. Star Mississippi 21:53, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Star Mississippi, thanks, I really appreciate it. I feel similarly to you as well. Even though I've commuted past the building daily for the better part of a decade, I never took the time to stop and look at it before. Epicgenius (talk) 22:31, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  Interesting building, great GA on fine sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I hope we'll get the good licensed image. I'd prefer the original hook, but all are good. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:01, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
Add a short description and then WP:ALT text to every image.
"an offshoot of Swedish photography museum" → "an offshoot of the Swedish photography museum"
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

@Some Dude From North Carolina: Thanks. I have done these. Epicgenius (talk) 17:00, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Building future

@Epicgenius not sure if you can access this source (I can't) but looks like a little on the future. Star Mississippi 21:52, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up @Star Mississippi. I don't have access to this yet, but maybe when ProQuest updates its database in 2-3 days. Nonetheless, that is an interesting development. – Epicgenius (talk) 22:14, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Very. I wonder if the 2022 sale that wasn't going to impact the museum's lease ever happened. Curious what its future will hold. Star Mississippi 03:36, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
