@BrandieBreezy: Great start on the article! I think this is pretty close to getting ready to move:

  • Think carefully both about tone (i.e., you want this to read like an encyclopedia article and not like the organization's own website) so you might want to edit it so that it is emphasizes things like the "originality" of the artists and more about objective facts or about what reviewers have said. WP:NPOV is the key!
  • Think about about what is and isn't appropriate. You're trying to creating a detailed set of subsections for each rooms and I wonder if that's appropriate for an encyclopedia article. Maybe this would be well served by a bulleted list with a sentence or two about each room? I'm not sure, but that fact that each section is largely a summary of the material on the organizations own website makes me worried that this is blurring the line between their promotional material and the encyclopedia article.
  • I'd take more of the draft stuff and move this live.
  • It looks like you have a few reviews and descriptions from reliable sources. In that case, I think this is about ready to move!

Great start, I think this will develop into a fantastic article! Go ahead an make a few edits to get this into shape and then I'd say you can go ahead and move it! —mako 22:47, 23 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Images

edit

I had images from the exhibits deleted due to reasons I explained over at User talk:BrandieBreezy and on commons:Commons:Deletion requests/Chihuly Museum Photographs. Please don't try to read those images. Other than that little hitch, I think this is coming along pretty nicely although additional sources beyond the museum itself (i.e., third-party sources would be helpful this seems to rely pretty heavily on primary sources. —mako 18:16, 29 October 2015 (UTC)Reply
