Legacy section

[edit]

The reliance on primary sources (see also WP:SELFPUB and WP:BLPSELFPUB) to cite the last two paragraphs of the "Legacy" section should be discussed. Generally, Wikipedia tries to avoid using primary sources to support statements or claims someone/something is saying about themselves/itself since it can be seen as a form of WP:PROMO. -- Marchjuly (talk) 03:44, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the sources cited for the last two paragraphs of the Legacy section are strongly promotional. If there is no independent reliable source discussing the legacy of the Sarasota School, then those paragraphs should be removed. - Donald Albury 13:26, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The first of those two paragraphs points out that two organizations exist whose purpose is to preserve Sarasota School of Architecture structures. I am not sure how that can be promotional, if the gist of the paragraph merely acknowledges their existence. Not sure where the 'promotional' aspect lies here. I replaced and added additional footnotes. The second paragraph, I have also replaced footnotes with ones that, hopefully, are less problematic.Architecttype (talk) 02:29, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
