Four Continents[edit]

@Epicgenius: Do you think a bit of the text could be moved over to Four Continents (French), which would then eliminate the need to keep category:Sculptures by Daniel Chester French here (since there's a standalone article)? This is such a beautiful articles, thanks for your hard work! ---Another Believer _(Talk) 14:17, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Another Believer, Thanks! I think the text can be copied, but the text about Four Continents in this article is supposed to be only a summary, with me adding more details later. epicgenius (talk) 14:35, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Epicgenius, Yup! Just a summary here is perfect. The details can go on the standalone article. Thanks so much! ---Another Believer _(Talk) 14:43, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Do you still want to keep the 'Sculptures by Daniel Chester French' and P. Brothers category here? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 14:47, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Another Believer, no, let's remove these. epicgenius (talk) 14:59, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Epicgenius, I see you've removed. Thank you! ---Another Believer _(Talk) 19:54, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Floor plan[edit]

I’ve updated a couple details of the Heye center, the previous floor plan referenced is out of date. “Future café” has been the Mili Kapi café since pre-pandemic and is currently in the process of re-opening. The gift store occupies the entirety of the cashier’s office on the 2nd floor. 38.127.143.248 (talk) 15:26, 17 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good to me. Thanks for updating the article. 38.127.143.248 (talk) 20:36, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops. I meant to reply to this but didn't notice I had been logged out while visiting the Smithsonian. Epicgenius (talk) 20:43, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
