Factual accuracy

[edit]

Gothic revival architecture seems to have been applied by default to Fuller's buildings, but in building after building, one can see from main articles or WP:RS that that is not always or even usually the case. I've made one correction. There is more work to do this regard, though, so I think it should be tagged as such until the problem is corrected -- so readers are not misled.

I've changed the Library bulding to Victorian High Gothic style. Are there others you feel should be changed or can we remove the banner?— Rod talk 12:45, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Boy, this is a fluke. I stopped watching this page and came here as a result of work I'm now doing on Wikidata. Anyway, Rod, imo, no, the tag should remain. I don't have time to go through all the suspect links but one of the 1st ones I've checked, the Almonte post office, was wrong: the historic sites designation makes it clear it's Romanesque revival. Until someone can vet all of User:Victoriaedwards' edits here, the tag should remain, imo. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 02:09, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No, I checked two more, going to the historic places pages, and they're both wrong. sorry I cannot help more. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 03:24, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Today, I corrected more buildings wrongly labeled per their architectural styles. I think they're all correct, save for the Royal Military College. Of course, the mess also affects the RMC main article, which I've raised at Talk:Royal Military College of Canada#Accuracy. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:52, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your work on improving the accuracy. You suggest all are now correct except the RMC. I have looked at the Heritage Character Statement for this and am still unsure what to change it to in this article for the three RMC buildings - what would you suggest?— Rod talk 10:13, 22 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have any suggestions, sorry. Please do as you think best -- leave the tag on the page or remove it. thanks, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:39, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
At the moment all three lines in the table for the RMC say "Neo-Gothic" - never having seen them it is difficult to try to put better labels. The riding establishment heritage character statement you linked to doesn't give a particular architectural style. I've also looked at the Historic Register details for Royal Military College of Canada Building 2, Building 3, Building 6 etc and they seem to be quite eclectic styles rather than all following a particular scheme, so I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to describe them. How about replacing "neo-gothic" with a "?" for those three entries?— Rod talk 20:55, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. No, we don't do placeholders in article texts, here. Just remove the text from those fields, leave them blank, with an edit summary that explains why, is my suggestion. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 00:09, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
OK thanks. I've done as you suggested. If anyone objects they will hopefully come here to discuss.— Rod talk 07:54, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
