Perhaps this article could be expanded to cover the current function(s) of the room and any major historical events which are tied to the history of this room.Nrswanson (talk) 17:04, 27 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
Over the last 3 years images featuring individuals have been added to the White House room articles. The room articles are primarily about the architecture and decorative arts of these rooms. While some text describing historic events that have happened in a particular room are important, if the event is significant enough to have its own article (Partial Test Ban Treaty) the photograph is more appropriately placed there with a link in the article to the White House room article.
There are an abundant number of photographs showing the rooms without people, where the focus is on the architecture and decorative arts. The emphasis in adding a photograph is to illustrate the room and its furnishings, not an individual. If you must add images of people, please add them in the gallery feature. CApitol3 (talk)
Please add the dimensions of the room to the article, if you know them. Luwilt (talk) 18:15, 23 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
The East Room is used a bazillion times for receptions, meetings, and so on. Most of these are neither notable nor encyclopedic. Treaty signings, landmark legislation signings, and the like are notable and encyclopedic. A contributor added a reception for young people in the East Room in 2018, with a citation. Citation or not, that doesn't make the event notable as it doesn't rise to level of treaties and landmark legislation. - Tim1965 (talk) 15:05, 30 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
On 2020 election eve, Trump host 400 person reception in East Room that allows a 7.4 sq. foot space per person. This occurs during peak of Covid19. Propose inclusion as one of the most shameful utilization of this historic space. Wikipietime (talk) 14:45, 3 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
