General comments

edit

The Victorian Society covers a different period so the detachment afforded by a link in the See Also section seems to me to be entirely appropriate. The only reason for such a link in the article is to help a reader interested in more than that covered by the 20CS. In any case the sentance added doesn't make sense and given the above, I've no interest in making it so. The Lloyds link is a high profile example of the societies work. -- John (Daytona2 · Talk · Contribs) 12:37, 9 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

I disagree and note the following:

  1. By saying "see also" the article is disjointed and fails to mention what The Victorian Society does. This is removing important information from the article for no reason.
  2. I put the link into Lloyd's Building because it is relevant there, but not so relevant here. (but this is less important than point 1) Tony May (talk) 18:05, 9 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Society for the Preservation of Ugly Buildings

This organisation should give itself an more accurate name, such as the above. The current name doesn't even indicate which field of endeavour it is concerned with (20th Century knitting? Mass murder? Literature?) Alex Middleton (talk) 02:54, 18 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

How about we start a "Campaign against the Twentieth Century Society"? The valuable work is to seek the demolition of as much 20th century architecture as quickly as possible, not its demolition. Luwilt (talk) 01:44, 1 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
