Twenty-five Year Award

 * Nominator(s): Found5dollar (talk) 01:56, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because it failed it's last nomination in July not because of any objections whatsoever, but because there were not enough reviews. Now that the summer is over, I can again devote time to wikipedia and advancing this list through the nomination process again. --Found5dollar (talk) 01:56, 23 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Quick comment – One new issue I noticed that wasn't there last time: a typo in the second paragraph of the Eligibility section ("canidate").  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 00:22, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
 * fixed.--Found5dollar (talk) 00:44, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
 * One more I found while doing spot-checks: the "25 to 35 years" quote is in reference 3, not ref 1; that source just gives the 25 year figure. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 22:48, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Got it. Fixed.--Found5dollar (talk) 00:21, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

Comment I may have asked this before but have we guaranteed that images are all okay under the freedom of panorama laws? Other than that, I have no other issues with the list since it's gone through significant review thus far. A quick comment about the former and if happy, I'll support.

 * From my understanding of the law, photographs of buildings are permissible as long as they are taken from public areas (including lobbies, auditoriums, etc.). The only caveat is that sculpture does not have freedom of panorama. From what I can tell there are no sculptures, besides the rogue company sign which I believe would be considered part of the architecture of the building, in any of the pictures, and they all appear to have either been taken from a public street or a lobby of the structure.--Found5dollar (talk) 23:27, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Support Great list, well done. NapHit (talk) 19:05, 23 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Weak oppose I feel there needs to be a World map with the location of the buildings. Nergaal (talk) 20:03, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I thought about adding a map like that at one time, but decided against it for two reasons. First the map would be very messy as many of the buildings are in the same cities. This combined with the size the map would have to be (it would have to cover basically the whole world), it would be virtually unreadable. There would be too many building names and not enough space on the map to get them all on it.Secondly, after looking at other featured lists, specifically the featured "tallest building," and other featured architecture award lists, i noticed that no other featured articles in the same category as this one have maps associated with them. I am open to adding one, I just don't think it will add anything to the article as the location of each building is stated clearly in the table, and having a map that is unreadable do to the proximity of many of the buildings and the distance of a few others may take away fromt he visual impact of the article.--Found5dollar (talk) 03:02, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I have also just added a small paragraph to the openign to explain where the most awarded cites are.--Found5dollar (talk) 03:33, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
