This faculty member's profile mentions the sculpture, but I don't think it is worth incorporating into the article. ---Another Believer (Talk) 01:39, 19 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Should this article be included in Category:2007 sculptures? It was first installed in Portland, but was later installed under a slightly different name in Washington in 2007. ---Another Believer (Talk) 03:31, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

IMO, it's not a 2007 work; even though the piece was re-installed slightly differently and re-titled, it's still ostensibly the same materials arranged in the same way, and doesn't constitute a newer work. Unless it's significantly different to the original and a reliable source describes it as a 2007 work, I think it's still a 1990 work. Just my 2d worth.

@Baffle gab1978: This is very helpful, thank you. I won't add the category unless others advocate otherwise. ---Another Believer (Talk) 23:27, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
