Talk:The Tabard

Other Tabard Inns
Please explain the revert edit: the hotel in DC is definitely known as 'the Tabard' and has been around long enough to merit its inclusion, which is why I included it on this page along with a reference. While it's only related to the historical Tabard through its name (as with the restaurant in Philadelphia), it didn't seem to merit its own page, so where should this info go?

 * If they're not significant enough to merit their own articles, then I think I would question their inclusion here. Other's mileage may differ. Kbthompson (talk) 22:49, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

I meant I didn't think a separate/disambiguation page was the answer, not that it doesn't merit any inclusion whatsoever. Is this a case for disambiguation since both places have the same name? HarryBrown (talk) 20:51, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
 * You could add to the top of this page - but unless these otherplaces have their own articles, there isn't much point. Generally, for inclusion in this article they would need to have a much closer relationship with this specific building. Wiki is not a directory of everything, so they only warrant a mention if individually notable. Kbthompson (talk) 10:28, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Clarity edits
I took out the part about the Tabard's owner, since the sentence read awkwardly.Princetoniac (talk) 21:11, 2 April 2015 (UTC) I also rewrote a sentence on permitted practices so that subject and verb were closer to each otherPrincetoniac (talk) 21:15, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

The pictures of the Tabard Inn in c.1850 and in 1873 show that the name of the inn actually was The Tabard, or more correctly, what is written on the signs is "The Old Tabard". But the text of the article says that after reconstruction in 1676, it was renamed "The Talbot". Presumably some time between the seventeenth and the nineteenth century the inn was given its own name again - or possibly there was another coaching inn that had been given the older name?
