Nice!

Very nice work, Dimitris! Stephen Ewen 20:54, 30 April 2007 (CDT)

Photos?

How can there be an article on architecture without photographs? Jeff Dean 11:19, 4 June 2007 (CDT)

If people in the know will make specific photo requests here, I will see what I can do to fulfill them. ---Stephen Ewen 15:51, 17 June 2007 (CDT)

There is a mention of the Pantheon in the Materials sub-chapter. It is also quite a classic so it would be good to have an image. Other names mentioned that could have good images are Piranesi, Boullee and Loos. Something non-western in the beggining would be also good. --Dimitris Kottas 16:29, 17 June 2007 (CDT)


Ive just uploaded 2 of a greek temple, and one detail of the cathedral in Milan. Placed two in the article David Tribe 16:32, 17 June 2007 (CDT)

If someone can come up with a last name for the photographer, this one would be good to include. You can't not have Gehry! --Joe Quick 23:12, 18 December 2007 (CST)

Got it! Uploading now. --Joe Quick 15:22, 22 December 2007 (CST)

"Tribe"

I don't think there's anything wrong with the word "tribe" when used in this context; and more to the point, just because someone says in a book that "tribe" is a biased term doesn't mean that it is. --Robert W King 13:39, 17 December 2007 (CST)

Actually, "tribe" was being used incorrectly in this context, but "rural nomadic peoples" is still a little awkward. --Joe Quick 21:45, 17 December 2007 (CST)
