 * Folks, before we go about passing this article for GA, please consider whether quotes are overused. Is this entry encyclopedic? Do encyclopedias use large collections of quotes? Please read the quotation guides, and consider their application, before passing the article. Most kind regards, Lazulilasher (talk) 17:51, 13 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Further, the computer generated image has a fair use rationale noting that it is a photograph of the Louvre Abu Dhabi. This is misleading, can this be corrected? Thanks, Lazulilasher (talk) 17:57, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Also, this article had numerous copyvio problems:
 * 1) Note: This text was mis-sourced: "these will include: the Sheikh Zayed National Museum to be designed by the UK's Foster + Partners under the direction of Lord Norman Foster; the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi contemporary arts museum - the world's largest Guggenheim and the only one in the Middle East, which has been conceptualised by Frank Gehry; a performing arts centre designed by Zaha Hadid, a maritime museum with concept design by Tadao Ando and a number of arts pavilions", it links to French Culture.org (present #5, not #6).
 * Do you think the above article excerpt is too close to the source: "these will include: the Sheikh Zayed National Museum to be designed by the UK's Foster + Partners under the direction of Lord Norman Foster; the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi contemporary arts museum - the world's largest Guggenheim and the only one in the Middle East, which has been conceptualised by Frank Gehry; a performing arts centre designed by Zaha Hadid, a maritime museum with concept design by Tadao Ando and a number of arts pavilions"?

 * 1) [t]he museum will include galleries for permanent collections, galleries for special exhibitions, a Department of Architecture and Design, a Center for Art and Technology, children’s education facilities, archives, library and research centre and a state-of-the-art conservation laboratory was directly taken from here without proper attribution (I just attributed it).

Please check to make sure these sorts of attribution errors to not occur in other areas of the text. Regards, Lazulilasher (talk) 18:46, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm going to fail this article because of the comments above, so, after the comments are addressed this article can be renominated for GA. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 18:00, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
