Line 64: :Hi, and thanks. Please go ahead! :I didn't notice your comment until now, and I hope I've addressed some of the problems in the last few hours. At least it's a start. I really must stop now, sorry. [[User:Arminden\|Arminden]] ([[User talk:Arminden\|talk]]) 03:27, 18 April 2025 (UTC) ::Another point: what the style was called by contemporaries is probably little more than a curiosity on Wiki, which is mainly a general-interest resource; what the mainstream terminology is ''now'' is, I guess, the most relevant. Anyhow, we cannot have articles w/o clear definitions of the topic at hand, and here things are still far from well. [[User:Arminden\|Arminden]] ([[User talk:Arminden\|talk]]) 10:09, 18 April 2025 (UTC) :::I totally agree with you: there is no need to have articles for obscure terms of the past (Mike Hope puts the number of related terms into dozens, see [https://www.google.com/books/edition/Art_Deco_Architecture/a3maDwAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&pg=PA1909]), an no good sources to describe them anyhow. However, redirects for all these terms (most likely, to [[Art Deco]]) might be very useful. The regional varieties quite likely can be adequately covered in sources and thus might end up as articles, similarly to [[Pisan Romanesque]] of the [[Romanesque style]].

No rounded corners either. I looked it up and others (see [https://www.flickr.com/photos/miamiboy/51213500001 here]) also have it under Art Deco with of International Style influence, while its architect, [[L. Murray Dixon]], is known for his Art Deco work. Unless someone can convince me of the opposite, it's out. [[User:Arminden\|Arminden]] ([[User talk:Arminden\|talk]]) 10:28, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
