Luxor Hotel
Could individuals with appropriate talent please review this article for suggestions regarding possible removal of over-promotion, i also think there needs to be clearer emphasis on its architectural significance. Possibly requires an expansion as well. In fact any help on general improvement of this article would be appreciated.

 * Question, does http://www.vegas-dreaming.com/luxor.htm mirror WP or did the article rip off this page?

In any case, I think the biggest problem with the article right now is the lack of sources.

Then we would need to look at the architecture aspect. This is one of the more recognizable buildings in Vegas and I cannot imagine that someone hasn't written something about it. There are several articles from last month (I referenced one in the WP article) about the building going through a renovation right now. That might be a good place to start.

The introduction should mention that MGM Grand is the current owner, and is currently in the midst of a major renovation. In the article, there should be links to comments from management about the purpose and goals of the renovation. There should also be a mention of the history of the additional buildings that were added after the original pyramid. 08:28, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

An article that gives some technical details about the exterior strobe lights, and interior nightclub renovations from a few years ago: http://livedesignonline.com/mag/lighting_pyramid_power_relampingand/index.html.
