[edit] GA Re-Review and In-line citations
Members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles are in the process of doing a re-review of current Good Article listings to ensure compliance with the standards of the Good Article Criteria. (Discussion of the changes and re-review can be found here). A significant change to the GA criteria is the mandatory use of some sort of in-line citation (In accordance to WP:CITE) to be used in order for an article to pass the verification and reference criteria. Currently this article does not include in-line citations. It is recommended that the article's editors take a look at the inclusion of in-line citations as well as how the article stacks up against the rest of the Good Article criteria. GA reviewers will give you at least a week's time from the date of this notice to work on the in-line citations before doing a full re-review and deciding if the article still merits being considered a Good Article or would need to be de-listed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us on the Good Article project talk page or you may contact me personally. On behalf of the Good Articles Project, I want to thank you for all the time and effort that you have put into working on this article and improving the overall quality of the Wikipedia project.

[edit] New York Exhibition 1999
Posted by sashka pozzetti: I have been given a copy of a catalogue for the Lucile exhibition that was held a while back in New York, and it is absolutely amazing. There are loads of great pictures of beautiful Lucile dresses cleverly grouped together by the curators in themes, like 'exotic', and 'romantic'. There are some amazing colour pictures of clothes and lots more information. I recommend anyone interested in Lucile getting a copy. This is the first proper expert publication I have ever seen about Lucile, and it names useful sources for research, and even where you can find private collectors. A goldmine. I think Randy Bingham said he also contributed some of the beautiful pictures and clothes to the exhibition. Stunning!!! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kittybrewster (talk • contribs) 08:43, 18 April 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Naming issues
If I interpret the naming conventions correctly, this article should be at Lucy Duff Gordon or Lucy Duff-Gordon, and what's up with the hyphen? It never shows in the text except in the Wood vs Duff-Gordon case. Errabee 07:38, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Titanic
In 1912, Lucile was called to New York on business, and she and her husband, along with Lucile’s secretary Laura Mabel Francatelli, booked first-class passage on the ocean liner RMS Titanic under the names Mr. and Mrs. Morgan. Why they used false names? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.240.228.183 (talk) 21:56, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
