Can someone create, and should there be, an infobox for architectural styles?

Hi
I just wanted to let you know that I am going to make some additions to the article on Steel building. I wanted to make some changes to the types and components sections.
Kinetic Architecture
Kinetic Architecture.- Ancient Greek κινητικός (kinētikos, "one who puts in motion"),Architecture: Greek ἀρχιτέκτων – arkhitekton, from ἀρχι- "chief" and τέκτων "builder, carpenter, mason"). Is an architectural design concept where a building is transforming, moving or changing by the use of natural or unnatural sources through technological innovations. The use of robotics, mechanics and electronics are being better known as new approaches into its architectural possibilities. kitaro
Seeking Architecture Ambassador for WikiProject MoMA
As the new Wikipedia-in-Residence fostering institutional cooperation at the the Museum of Modern Art, I'd love to invite WikiProject Architecture folks to come participate! In particular, we are also looking for anyone to be an Architecture Ambassador to WikiProject MoMA (see Wikipedia:GLAM/MoMA/Members).--Pharos (talk) 15:48, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Roof style
There's an old farmhouse north of Cattistock, dating from roughly the 1600s, which has a rather peculiar roof design. I wonder if anyone here knows what its form and function would be. On Google Maps it shows as 50.807925,-2.588892. It looks kind of like a modified hipped-roof, except that it appears to dip downward in the middle. I don't think it's an optical illusion, as the south portion of the roof casts a shadow into that "dipped" area. Does anyone here know anything about this type of construction? Thank you! ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 03:11, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
Point Park Civic Center
Since the article was promoted to FA five years ago, I have a few problems with it. I have addressed them here. Please feel free to chime in. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 00:07, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
Articles on architectural firms
Should articles on firms have the constituent architects redirecting to them, listing the architects' works regardless of whether they were designed by the firm or not? --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 14:36, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
- SarekOfVulcan, I think the general answer is pretty obvious: it depends. If two architects worked primarily in partnership, or as father and son in one firm, then an article at the firm name with redirects from the two individual names often makes sense. If there is more information about one or both can be handled comfortably in one article, then editors developing the material may choose to split out another article, following usual wikipedia guidelines on mergers vs. splits.

:I suspect your asking this here is an attempt to cover for your edit-warring at George P. Washburn, as if you have a point to your repeated removal of a list of works of George P. Washburn, his firm with his son, and the renamed firm of his son with another partner. In that case, a single article seems to make the most sense so far, especially as there is only one so-far-known notable work by the renamed firm. I suspect the fault in the list of works of the firm, in my version of the new article, that you claim exists in edit summaries and in the talk page, but do not deign to explain at Talk:George P. Washburn is that you see -- as I always did see before I put the list into the article--that there is one item in that list by the successor firm, based on the source that i included in the article. I knew that. Your removal of the entire list of works, based on your questioning one item and not even explaining that, seems wp:POINTY or worse.
FARI have nominated Point Park Civic Center for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here.
