Name Distinction

[edit]

The Woman's Building in L.A. was named after the Woman's Building at the 1893 World's Fair. It was very famous. The Women's Building in SF is spelled differently. There are other Women's Buildings, but the SF is the most well-known. ----Sue Maberry (talk) 22:27, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Untitled

[edit]

This needs to be a disambiguation; the Women's Building in San Francisco is notable and needs a separate article; and I imagine there must be other women's centers with this name. --Lquilter 22:23, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This Woman's Building was an arts organization and educational program. The San Francisco one and other women's centers were quite different. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Maberry (talkcontribs) 06:39, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Create new subcategories?

[edit]

Would it make sense to create some subcategories (other than visual artists) under "Participants?" I see several writers, some musicians, etc. listed under "participants." Their contributions were undoubtedly important, but I don't think they can all be classified as visual artists. That said, I don't want to create too many lists on this page.

Self-published or primary source

[edit]

The article was tagged as a self-published source, which I think of as a self-published book. This appears to have primary source issues, where several of the sources appear to be the Women's Building. I didn't change it, though, because it's entirely likely I'm missing something.--CaroleHenson (talk) 23:27, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
