Page title[edit]

I chose to make this page for the firm rather than do individual pages for the two founders because information on their lives is so hard to come by. Page created in honor of Women's History Month. Alafarge (talk) 03:41, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Buildings[edit]

It would be good to nail down location, name, and history for some of their buildings, especially the San Francisco hospital and the women's club building in New York (which may have doubled as a residential building).Alafarge (talk) 15:52, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

separation[edit]

I'm glad you, @Alafarge:, put so much work into this page! But I do wonder if we should separate them. Schenck & Mead are separate Marcia Mead and Anna P. Schenck. Of course the Charles and Ray Eames are still not. Please let me know if it's okay for me to ake a stab at this at some point, cheers! Fred (talk) 00:06, 15 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Frederika Eilers:: It's not my call, really— you are entirely within your rights to make pages for each of the partners— though I think it's a fine idea, and I hope you can dig up some more material on each of them. I do think it would be good to keep a separate page for the firm as well, since it is not the same thing as the individual partners. "Schenck & Mead" redirects logically enough to Mead because Schenck died so early in the partnership, but it wouldn't be possible to redirect "Gannon & Hands" to one partner without slighting the other.

Thanks for responding. I've come across more examples, as i've been thinking about this. There are plenty of contemporary firms which only feature a firm article and not individual partners, ie. Diller Scofidio + Renfro. I don't really think there is a consensus yet. I've asked if Merrill Elam from Mack Scogin Merrill Elam should be deleted, so maybe i'll get a response as to our standard. Anyway, thanks again for all the work you did to initially create the article! Fred (talk) 15:18, 22 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't come across any consensus on how to treat partnerships in any field (tho it is certainly possible that guidelines exist somewhere in the bowels of Wikipedia's style guides and I just haven't stumbled across them). I appreciate that you are working on architects, a big subject. Alafarge (talk) 16:26, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
