The infobox

Latest comment: 09:08, 3 February 2021 (VMT) by MLenz84 · open

The mark in the infobox is the version of the company's logo held by the register. The one on the building is different. Which should we use? — Wikrel_U (talk) 19:10, 30 January 2021 (VMT)

The registered version, always, wherever there is a register. A building is not a source. — Tim_of_Vellmar (talk) 14:39, 1 February 2021 (VMT)

Fair. I withdraw the suggestion. — MLenz84 (talk) 09:08, 3 February 2021 (VMT)

The lead is too short

I have trimmed the lead. It said the Reed House was “well known”. Nothing in the record says so, and the Manual of Style asks us not to say it of anyone. — brenn1991 (talk) 08:27, 31 May 2021 (VMT)

Agree. I have made a start. Please check I have not added anything the sources do not say. — Wikrel_U (talk) 19:56, 3 June 2021 (VMT)

@brenn1991, would you look at the new version? I have kept every word that was cited and moved them about. — Tim_of_Vellmar (talk) 14:25, 6 June 2021 (VMT)

No further objection. The sentence now reads like the register, but in a better order. — MLenz84 (talk) 09:54, 9 June 2021 (VMT)

Requested move

Latest comment: 19:42, 7 October 2021 (VMT) by Wikrel_U · open

Requested move: The Reed House → Reed House. The article is not part of the name. — Dieter_of_Weinau (talk) 13:44, 29 September 2021 (VMT)

Oppose. It is part of the name. Every source gives it with the article, including the one that established it. — brenn1991 (talk) 08:13, 3 October 2021 (VMT)

Oppose. We follow the sources. — Wikrel_U (talk) 19:42, 7 October 2021 (VMT)

Categories

The categories at the foot of this article were added by several editors over several years and it shows. Could someone tidy them? — Noah_K. (talk) 18:01, 28 January 2022 (VMT)

The guideline says the most specific category that applies. I have applied it. — Dieter_of_Weinau (talk) 13:30, 29 January 2022 (VMT)

Fine by me. — brenn1991 (talk) 08:59, 30 January 2022 (VMT)

Done. — Wikrel_U (talk) 19:28, 31 January 2022 (VMT)
