"Despite its name"
[edit]From the article:
- Despite its name, it is not a museum because it has no collections, does not conduct research and is for-profit.
How "despite its name"? "Fotografiska" means "the photographic one". There is no mention of a museum. JIP | Talk 11:11, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
- Well, JIP, the last time I edited the article, it started (as it starts now): "Fotografiska (The Swedish Museum of Photography)". I'd hope that the English name came from its publicity and not merely from some editor's whim, but I don't know. I presume that some editor has thought:
- This institution calls itself a museum.
- In order to be called a museum, an institution must do at least one (or all?) of
- Possessing a collection.
- Conducting research.
- Eschewing profits.
- This institution fails on all three counts.
- The name of this institution is deceptive and the reader should be warned of this deception.
- I'm not saying that I agree with all of this (or even with any of it). I do note that Fotografiska's English-language "about" page currently announces: Fotografiska is the largest photography museum in the world. -- Hoary (talk) 13:02, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
