Does there really need to be a list of the cars? Especially since it's not complete. --Helenalex 18:06, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've reduced the length of the list. I don't see a problem with having it, although someone needs to go through and link more of the individual vehicles to articles. The number of pictures of cars is excessive. I would think that homes for most of them could be found on the individual car articles.-gadfium 19:16, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
My concern is that this article is becoming an annex of the World of Wearable Art museum web page. It's obvious that the main contributor to this article is COI, and if that person really wants to survive the upcoming "Articles for Deletion" discussion (which will happen soon if the article continues to expand without fixing the problems) then that person would do well to concentrate efforts on finding citations to non-biased news reports in magazines and newspapers giving significant coverage to the museum. Better to wait until later to add in the content with blatantly obvious (but fixable) copyright issues. We don't need to see any more photographs. We need Reliable, third-party sources not connected with the museum itself. OfficeGirl 19:42, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think the lists of cars and artists should be removed - they're not really necessary for an encyclopedia article (we could include lists of the paintings, lists of prior shows...all edging toward "indiscriminate collections of information"). I'm bold so I'll remove them myself. Maybe the most important few should be re-included? Are there are couple of those cars that are the "stars"? Anyway, I'll also work a little on including some sources. (I found this via "random article" and it sounds like a cool museum.) Dreamyshade (talk) 09:12, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Awards??[edit]

Surely the article should talk about the background to the awards, not just the modern museum. This article seems to have missed the point... Nengscoz416 (talk) 03:55, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
