Talk:American Institute of Graphic Arts

Reads as advert for organization

This article appears to have been taken directly from the organization's promotional material, reading like an advert. Needs a clean-up to remove biased language and also could probably use additional independent references (other than just the organization's web site). Dugwiki 19:02, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

well, its been over 3 years, and the page is still overly promotional, wiht little referenced historical content. i have a publication of theirs "50 books of the year 1963", which is a nice ref for this long running contest. ill try to add this and remove the promomaterial.

I also have very serious concerns about the neutrality and tone of this article. I'm going to go ahead and POV flag it --L'etranger333 (talk) 18:16, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

Very Hungry Caterpilar

I created a working link to this page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar, because the book received an award from AIGA according to one of the (credible) references. I'd like the page to show what category of award it got since the article is rated of top importance for the children's literature portal because of the book's global significance.

Yes, that is a notable book (i worked in the book business). It doesnt appear in the linked article on winners. Is it that a person wins, or that a book wins? Access to a print catalog of winners would be better. if anyone finds one, please consider growing this article and the list of winners.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 02:32, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

AIGA → American Institute of Graphic Arts – outside of its industry, not a well-known acronym like NASA or UNESCO, per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Abbreviations#Acronyms_in_page_titles. Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 14:05, 19 November 2017 (UTC)

• Support per nom. It's usually best to avoid acronyms unless they're incredibly well-known. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:23, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
• Support per both above. In ictu oculi (talk) 12:23, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
