Six?

[edit]

The theater is one of only six what remaining in the US? Theaters? Egyptian Theaters? --Dmz5*Edits**Talk* 05:13, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thought it was obvious because of the previous sentence and the context, but I added the word Egyptian anyway. I mean six theatres in the US, come on now. Happy Editing.A mcmurray 02:59, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Haha I know it didn't mean there are only 6 theatres, but that is exactly what it appeared to mean. It could also have been referring to an intervening sentence that had since been cut out (like, about it having a unique organ or something.)--Dmz5*Edits**Talk* 17:24, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Egyptian Theatre, Coos Bay, Oregon, 1925. Is the 7th. should it read "...it is believed to be only one of a few remaining in the United States"?12.145.73.51 18:59, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I like that wording much better.A mcmurray 19:22, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tone

[edit]

Where are the problems, as I will happily fix them.A mcmurray 03:49, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone? Bueller? What are the tone problems? This article didn't seem that informal to me. Anyone?A mcmurray 16:56, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, there doesn't really seem to be a big tone problem, I removed the tag.-Dmz5*Edits**Talk* 05:01, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

GA Pass

[edit]

I'm passing the article after editing the flow a little in the lead paragraph. It seems to me to have all the essentials - good citing, reasonable coverage, decent grammar and structure, stability, and NPOV. The pictures are also quite nice. Ideas for improvement would be (perhaps) doing something about the architect's red-link or finding something else notable for a new section. --Meowist 06:55, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
