Infobox Museum[edit]

I don't think the Walker should have museum infobox as it is an art gallery not a museum. I feel historic building is more suitable. If no one objects I will change it back in few days.--NeilEvans 17:10, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lots of art galleries use the museum infobox, including the Prado in Madrid, the Borghese Gallery in Rome, the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne etc. etc. [talk to the] HAM 10:42, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well it does seem a lot of art galleries do use the museum infobox, but the could so easily use the historic building infobox. The thing with these infoboxes is that they assume that a person, building etc only falls into one category, but they don't. I'm going to leave it as it is as the infobox doesn't look bad.--NeilEvans 16:19, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Finance[edit]

It says in this book it was financed by Alderman A. R. Walker which is different to this article http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=UmKKOz_vvHEC&pg=PA284&dq=alderman+a.+r.+walker&hl=en&sa=X&ei=p6znUovsLsaH0AWvhIGwDA&ved=0CC8Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=alderman%20a.%20r.%20walker&f=false Novalia (talk) 13:20, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Scapegoat[edit]

This painting isn't here at all, it's in Lady Lever Art Gallery in Port Sunlight. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.213.53.15 (talk) 06:26, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
