[edit] Infobox Museum

I don't think the Walker should have museum infobox as it is an art gallery not a museum. I feel historic building is more suitable. If no one objects I will change it back in few days.--NeilEvans 17:10, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Lots of art galleries use the museum infobox, including the Prado in Madrid, the Borghese Gallery in Rome, the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne etc. etc. [talk to the] HAM 10:42, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Well it does seem a lot of art galleries do use the museum infobox, but the could so easily use the historic building infobox. The thing with these infoboxes is that they assume that a person, building etc only falls into one category, but they don't. I'm going to leave it as it is as the infobox doesn't look bad.--NeilEvans 16:19, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
