Untitled[edit]

The Egyptian Hall was also the site for a very popular two-part exhibition of Mexican antiquites brought back by Bullock himself and later sold to the British Museum, where a selection of them can be seen today in the Mexican Gallery. Should this be added to the article? The Egyptian Hall, and Bullock himself, have also rec'd much scholarly attention of late. Are you interested in posting these citations? Full disclosure. I have written extensively on Bullock but have been warned by minders of over self-promotion. Your call. Rdaguirre 23:37, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Haydon, not Hayden[edit]

This rather important figure is mispelled. Rdaguirre 23:38, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Demolition date[edit]

The article gave a date of 1903 (which seems to have been sourced from arthurlloyd.co.uk), however there are problems with this. A good source cited in the John Nevil Maskelyne article says his company were resident at Egyptian Hall until 1904. Also the source at georgianindex.net gives a demolition date of 1905. I have changed the date in the article to 1905 as this seems better supported.Circusandmagicfan (talk) 07:37, 8 August 2008 (UTC)Circusandmagicfan[reply]

Urban legend[edit]

I've removed some material about an "urban legend" and Mothman. To be honest I found some of it very hard to understand. It seemed very implausible, and needs reliable sources. Richard Pinch (talk) 06:40, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The same banned user has been pasting the incoherent "anagram of Maskmelin" stuff to this and other articles since March, from anonymous IP addresses. I get the impression it's just a bad autotranslation of his own self-published conspiracy theories; Google only turns up the same text on other wiki projects with less strict sourcing requirements. --McGeddon (talk) 09:30, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
