List should be in chrono order

edit

There have been a lot of great additions. Now that there's a proper list the buildings should be in chrono rather than alpha order. Americasroof (talk) 18:21, 4 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

McHenry Library

edit

User:169.233.37.10 has suggested that McHenry Library be added to the list of notable buildings designed by John Carl Warnecke. The library may, in itself, be notable. But is it architecturally notable? Warnecke didn't run the library, didn't fund it, didn't establish the Grateful Dead archives there. The list of notable works by Warnecke are architecurally notable works. Not everything Warnecke designed is architecturally notable. Some of it is kinda junky (yes, that's a technical term). What's needed is an unbiased, third-party, published (and inline) citation saying "this library is one of Warnecke's really outstanding architectural works" (sic). A citation from the university itself doesn't meet that unbiased criteria.

I would also suggest that, as good-faith as User:169.233.37.10's suggestion is, User:169.233.37.10 is using a UC-Santa Cruz computer (indicating the user is a staff member, student, or professor there). The suggested contribution, in my opinion, violates Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines unless it comes with a citation to a neutral, published, third-party source. - Tim1965 (talk) 15:19, 30 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Footnote stacking

edit

The footnote stacking in this article is pretty severe, exemplified by multiple footnotes presented for something as simple as date of birth. One, or at most two, footnotes should be provided for any line that involves a factual assertion with a modicum of uncertainty. Use the one best footnote for each fact. Dumping half a dozen — or more — footnotes throughout the article makes it MORE difficult for readers to verify an assertion which they may question. It also greatly hampers readability. Thanks. —tim /// Carrite (talk) 22:21, 12 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
