LAME

This "article" is dreadful. There's next to no information about the building itself. Erm, hello... architect? Maybe? That would be a start. There's more about Superman than anything real.

100% Wikiality. With Wikipedia's gamed page ranking you are stealing traffic from dozens of decent high quality sites on this building. No wonder Wikipedia gets the bad name it fully deserves. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.42.129.149 (talk) 19:04, 7 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

And who cares what Ayn Rand thought about it? She knew nothing about architecture. This buildingcertainly deserves AN entry. It deserves better than this one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.97.194.138 (talk) 08:36, 9 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Missing Ayn Rand citation

edit

It's on page 735 of the centennial edition of the fountainhead, I'd put it in myself but don't know how nor care to learn —Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.137.12.4 (talk) 01:16, 28 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Done. Thank you for alerting us. Jim.henderson (talk) 23:15, 29 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Well, now, is it in the Fountainhead, or is it in notes about the writing of the Fountainhead, made by the author, and included by a posthumous editor in a later edition of the book? Judging from the reference, it's NOT in the book itself, it's just in her notes, which are not part of the work.Gms3591 (talk) 06:51, 11 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

I recommend editors not to use pdflink templates in citations (cite book, etc.), because it breaks code within citation tags. -Mardus (talk) 16:46, 15 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
