Article content[edit]

I have been adding {{infobox building}} to the article to included many of the design parameters using the standard building template. However one user keeps removing this. The building template provide a summary of all of the parameters that are about the building. In addition it provides information as to the location which is not in the other infobox and formats data like country in a standard format. This is the template used on article like Sydney Opera House which is a theater complex. I see no reason why the template that contains all of the building information about the building in a standard format not be used. {{Infobox theatre}} simply lacks most of the information, does not display the information it uses in the standard format and forces adding other information in a non standard format.

Also said editor insists on forcing the various tables to be excessively large and forces the column widths to be a forced size rather then letting the readers browser format the information based on the readers display. This includes forcing images in tables when they are simply secondary information, to dominate the table. When images are included in tables, it is common to do so at a reduced size. For examples see List of tallest buildings in Las Vegas a featured list which sizes images in tables at 80px, List of National Historic Landmarks in Nevada which uses 100px, FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives a featured list which uses 100px, List of tallest buildings and structures in London which uses 80px or List of ghost towns in Nevada which uses 100px. The effect of the large sizes is that on portable devices, the article is poorly formatted. So simply following the examples which do work on a wide range of displays seems in the best interest of everyone. Vegaswikian (talk) 19:00, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

See Manitou Island Light Station for an article that uses embeded infoboxes. Vegaswikian (talk) 05:58, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

1962?[edit]

The article claims "Caesars Palace made plans to renovate the defunct Circus Maximus Showroom (opened 1962)." Caesars didn't open until 1966, and the history says Sarno started planning it in 1962, with no mention of any existing structure on the site. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 15:22, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
