Feedback

@Dowliad: Hi Dowliad. I have to say that the glasses are really beautiful! Thanks for sharing them to us. Here are my thoughts. Feel free to reply to me if I misunderstand anything and I would love to hear from you.

I like how you use images to help illustrate the bridge of glass.
The internal link to Chihuly helps a lot in understanding his stories and works.
In history section, I think it's better to divide them into a few paragraphs to make the historical development more clear.
I noticed that the reference "CHIHULY BRIDGE OF GLASS" from Museum of Glass had been used four times, which may be used less if it is the subject's page(I'm not sure about it;)).

Love your article. Good job! --YixuanLong (talk) 07:25, 29 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for writing this, I didn't even know about the museum, let alone this bridge. I have a few minor details - in describing the bridge you talk about sections closest to downtown vs the museum. It might be nice to clarify by adding directions, like at the northern or eastern side. Also, the article alludes to this being one of the investments. Can you help the reader understand what other investments were made? Otherwise, I really enjoyed reading your article. Mwestmillennial (talk) 02:15, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Great looking Wikipedia article. I've lived in Seattle almost all of my life and have never really been to Tacoma. If i ever go, I will check the Bridge of Glass out. You have a great infobox, your lede is a perfect summary of the article, and all the information seems well researched with plenty of sources. I couldn't find much to review except a couple of minor grammatical errors. There is a typo in the line: By 1995, Russell and his wife were name co-chairmen of the museum's board . . . There is also an unneccesary "the" in the second sentence under the "Artwork" section. Good job and thanks for reviewing my Beth's Cafe article. - Eliasd06 (talk) 08:32, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think you did a really good job expanding this stub article. As stated above there are not any problems that jump out, and I think you have fixed the grammatical errors. I would consider tagging this in the WikiProject: Museums since it is housing artwork. MBlairMartin (talk) 01:27, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Freedom of Panorama issues

Beware of US standards regarding freedom of panorama - it can be tricky showing images of art in a public space in the United States while still respecting the owner or owners' copyright. I'm not an expert on this so won't give specific advice on how to depict the Bridge of Glass. WP:EAR or WP:VILLAGEPUMP or one of the Commons discussion areas might be able to help further. - Brianhe (talk) 21:51, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
