Talk:Charles Sumner Sedgwick

Connections to New York state and Charles B. Sedgwick
I wonder if Charles Sumner Sedgwick is son of, or otherwise related to, Charles B. Sedgwick, of upstate New York. The Sedgwick Farms development / Sedgwick neighborhood of Syracuse, New York, which included the Charles H. Sedgwick House designed by Joseph Lyman Silsbee is also connected, I suspect. Charles S. Sedgwick did apparently start in architecture in Binghamton, New York (about 60 miles away from Syracuse), per a source in the article now.

Perhaps confusingly, there are one or a few sources out which have apparent typo of "Charles B. Sedgwick" where "Charles S. Sedgwick" is intended, including one document which used both, both times meaning the "S." architect. --Doncram (talk) 17:12, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Notability questioned
Is the subject of the article notable enough to merit inclusion in Wikipedia? There does not appear to be a specific set of criteria for architects, except for a long-standing draft that is preserved for historical purposes. The general guidelines seem to be all we have. (And I'd pay attention to the rule about Wikipedia not being a depository of indiscriminate information.) The subject is an architect; so he has built buildings. So what? There are more than one hundred thousand active architects in the United States, per 2016 census. And, hopefully, presumably, most of them are busy. Then they get the occasional write up about their buildings. Does everyone get an article? Are they all notable? -The Gnome (talk) 18:53, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
