Talk:Edward Perry Warren

Isabella Stewart Gardner?

There is a "see also" link to this lady, but no mention of her in the text, nor to Warren in the Isabella Stewart Gardner article. Why has this link been added given that there is no obvious connection between the two? --rossb 21:43, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

They were contemporary and rival collectors, both supplying works back to Boston. I added this as an afterthought, but as with any See also, it would be better worked into the text. --mervyn 08:15, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Warren Cup

This entry states that Warren did not attempt to sell the cup now named after him, however, the page on the Warren Cup (and the British Museum's own publications) stated that the British Museum was offered the cup by Warren in the 1950s, but the British Museum did not purchase it due to the cups imagery. ~~jaidit

Unlikely offered by this Warren, who died in 1928. Bmclaughlin9 (talk) 22:13, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Needs a section on the lawsuit involving his father's trust

Ned sued his family trust in a very famous case about fiduciary duty regarding trusts that involved then-lawyer, later noted Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis. --Bobak (talk) 13:56, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

We already have this:

Warren's oldest brother, Samuel D. Warren had left law to work in the family's paper mill. He managed the family trust established in May 1889 with the legal assistance of Louis D. Brandeis to benefit his father's widow and 5 children. Edward Warren challenged his brother's administration of the family trust in 1906, a dispute that ended with Samuel's suicide in 1910.

I added this:

The Warren Trust case became a point of contention during the 1916 Senate hearings on the confirmation of Brandeis to the Supreme Court and it remains important for its explication of legal ethics and professional responsibility. John P. Frank, "The Legal Ethics of Louis D. Brandeis," Stanford Law Review, vol. 17, no. 4 (April 1965), 683-709, esp. 694-8

I'm not sure how much more is needed. If there's other coverage of this case elsewhere on wikipedia we should be linking to it. It's not mentioned in Louis Brandeis at all. Bmclaughlin9 (talk) 15:20, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Edward Perry Warren → Ned Warren – Also called Ned, according to books. Alternatively, Edward Warren (archaeologist) would be possible, but his whole natural name with middle name is more notable than the parenthetical one. I believe that "Ned" is more common than the parenthetical name, but I'm unsure whether it is more common than the whole name, which is the current article title.

Do not rename/move. The current article title is the name under which he published. "Ned" is the nickname for Edward and the name friends would use, but not his public name. And there's no reason to drop the middle Perry either. He published as "Edward Perry Warren". The redirect file at Ned Warren since 2006 is sufficient to help anyone who searches via the nickname. Bmclaughlin9 (talk) 03:03, 1 April016 (UTC)

Strong Oppose. Ned was merely a nickname. Edward Perry Warren was his name; what he published under; what biographers refer to him as; what the British Museum and other institutions holding his collections and donations refer to him as; and what his books have been republished under. http://www.amazon.com/Bachelors-Art-Edward-Warren-Brotherhood/dp/1872180116/; http://www.amazon.com/Defence-Uranian-Love-Valancourt-Classics/dp/193455569X/ Engleham (talk) 04:59, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
