Talk:Entrance Hall

Adding images of individuals

Over the last 3 years images featuring individuals have been added to the White House room articles. The room articles are primarily about the architecture and decorative arts of these rooms. While some text describing historic events that have happened in a particular room are important, if the event is significant enough to have its own article (Partial Test Ban Treaty) the photograph is more appropriately placed there with a link in the article to the White House room article.

There are an abundant number of photographs showing the rooms without people, where the focus is on the architecture and decorative arts. The emphasis in adding a photograph is to illustrate the room and its furnishings, not an individual. If you must add images of people, please add them in the gallery feature. CApitol3 (talk)

Wrong title

Good article but wrong name. There are millions of entrance halls worldwide and it is not appropriate that Wikipedia's article should be about one in particular. It would be helpful if someone can move it to Entrance Hall (White House). ProfDEH (talk) 08:26, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

I agree, it should be Entrance Hall (White House). MrEvers (talk) 10:48, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Wrong Caption

The picture captioned "McKim, Mead, and White renovation of the Entrance Hall in 1924 during the administration of Theodore Roosevelt" is incorrect. Theodore Roosevelt was president from September 14, 1901 – March 4, 1909. He was dead in 1924. Either the year is incorrect, or it should read the Coolidge administration. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.151.249.222 (talk) 09:20, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
