Talk:Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial

Infobox info
As a proposed memorial, much of the infobox is blank. The lat/long is based on a "best guess" given the recommended location. &mdash; Eoghanacht  talk 14:45, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Reads like an Advert
My goodness this article is full of POV to the point that it reads like an advocacy piece for the memorial. This needs a lot more fixing than I, at this time, can provide. Paul, in Saudi (talk) 10:52, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree. You should have seen it before; I tried to add more background and factual stuff, but didn't really want to engage in an edit war with anyone else over removing the POV stuff. Frankly, it seems as if one or more previous contributors decided to throw in every positive comment they could find. - Tim1965 (talk) 16:37, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

Design approval
The National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) approved revised preliminary and final site and building plans for the Memorial on October 5, 2017. --PhotographerTom (talk) 14:09, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

The website history timeline forgets all about executive order 10450
Folks:

I notice that the timeline interactive exhibit on the website for the memorial completely omitted mention of Eisenhower's issue of Executive Order 10450, which ruined the lives of many of my LGBTQ brothers and sisters.

Is this something that I can go ahead and put into the article?Allyn (talk) 06:36, 16 September 2020 (UTC) Mark Allyn, Bellingham, Washington
 * , You will have to find sources that connect the memorial specifically with that EO but you might want to make go instead to coverage (or more coverage) in the bio or presidency articles -- this article does not actually discuss much, if any, of the details of his presidency, nor his army life, nor his biography.

Yes, you are correct. The executive order is mentioned in the main article on Ike. What I wanted to try to point out (and please pardon me if it is inappropriate) that the memorial and it's website are incomplete because they do not mention this executive order that has severely and negatively impacted our LGBTQ community.Allyn (talk) 01:30, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
