Pretty sure this article should be about the billionaire.... Lyellin (talk) 15:13, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It should be. The existing stub was about the private art museum owned by the billionaire. --Oddharmonic (talk) 05:41, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I find it odd that the section on the art museum never mentions Mr. Rales, nor is there anything in the article to indicate any relationship whatsoever between them. --Russ (talk) 13:32, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dude, he's dead!

Article fails to mention his death. 71.139.166.154 (talk) 16:50, 10 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Creating new article for Glenstone; moving content

Hi all -- Glenstone, the museum created by Rales, is about to re-open with a major expansion. There has been substantial press coverage (such as this in the Washington Post^[1]), now that the museum will be one of the largest private museums in the United States and will be open to the public. I am planning on creating a new article for Glenstone and moving most of the content in the "Glenstone" section of this article into the new one. Then I'll leave a short summary in the Glenstone section here along with a link to the main article. Just wanted to post this here before I get started in case anyone has opinions on this. Tagging Patapsco913, Edwardx, and PaulinSaudi. Thanks! -- Cloud atlas (talk) 18:27, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Great idea, Cloud atlas - please go ahead. I was thinking of doing exactly the same, after seeing Tour the New $200 Million Expansion of One of America's Most Important—and Unknown—Museums. Edwardx (talk) 22:46, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the link, Edwardx. I've started the new article here. Please feel free to work on it (of course). I'll be adding and expanding this week, especially in an "Architecture" section. -- Cloud atlas (talk) 04:42, 1 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Cloud atlas. Already fairly comprehensive. Cannot think of much to add at this point! Edwardx (talk) 10:07, 5 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
