Talk:Lisner Auditorium

Untitled
If nothing else, the auditorium's notable because it's on the National Register. Give me five minutes; I should be able to salvage this. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 21:33, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * How's this? Should do for starters. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 21:40, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Expanding the article
I've taken an interest in expanding this article to discuss more of its National Registry significance: its architectural design and its role as a performance venue. The latter also plays into its role in GW's desegregation crisis, as its first big public show precipitated the call for GW to desegregate. If anyone would like to discuss any of my edits/additions, please do! I'm happy to collaborate. There's little published literature on this, but I will be citing everything as much as I can.108.45.68.157 (talk) 14:58, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Pop Culture references -- reliable sources
I added the following section (below) on popular culture references, with a citation. The cited source seems to me to meet the guidelines for a reliable source; while it is from the original vendor's website, wiki rules say we can use this those for merely factual information, which is how I used it (dates, plot summary). Could the person who deleted please discuss before deleting? And what would you count as a reliable source for this information?

In The Incredible Hulk #151, May 1972, Lisner Auditorium appears as the site of a cancelled appearance by Henry Pym, a.k.a. Ant-Man. Bruce Banner, looking for Pym, arrives to find the event cancelled; becoming sufficiently enraged, he is transformed into the Hulk, smashes his way out of Lisner, and rampages cars nearby.

Update: in looking back, I think I cited incorreclty. I used the citation for the comic book itself, not the website that givdes the synopsis, which is the source I should cite. Would this solve it? Troutfang (talk) 21:46, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Further update: I didn't realize the Fandom website was actually an open wiki and therefore not considered a reliable source here. Leaving the "in popular culture" section off for now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.45.68.157 (talk) 14:02, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
