Historic Landmark[edit]

I Specified "San Francisco City Historical Landmark" as the term "Historic Landmark" is insufficient as the Castro Theatre is not an actual "California Historical Landmark", But is the 100th San Francisco City Landmark.

Please see the list of California Registered Historic Landmarks at: [1]

And San Francisco City Historical Landmarks: [2]

Mighty Wurlitzer is no more[edit]

The Castro's famous Mighty Wurlitzer was removed a few years ago. A temporary organ was installed in its place until a new digital symphonic organ can be built and installed. Does anyone know: 1) the name of the family who owned and maintained the Mighty Wurlitzer [the Castro never officially owned the organ--it was leased from a family whose name I can't remember]; 2) the name (manufacturer) of the temporary organ; 3) ~when the digital organ will be installed? I only see the "coming soon" announcements about the new organ from the pre-show slide show projected on the screen (so I feel a bit like Grampa Simpson, who claims most of what he knows about history is pieced together from restaurant sugar packets). Thanks! Kinkyturnip (talk) 04:24, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I decided to add some information about the instrument, considering that a letter to the Project Manager for the theatre stated that the goals for the remaining fundraiser had been met, and installation of the organ will begin once the renovation of the theatre allows for it.

Information on the new organ[edit]

I decided to put information on the new organ being installed at the theatre into the article, yet I still think the information should be split into a new article, as the specifications are so large that I do not want to increase the readable prose size for the article as a whole. Specifications: [3] YouFoundSharpe2 (talk) 00:48, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see the need for a split, as the current length is quite short. Nothing from the technical document you have linked to seems appropriate for an encyclopedia article (though I would have no objection to linking to it). The current text already delves quite deeply into primary sources (the FAQ), rather than summarizing coverage in reliable secondary sources.--Trystan (talk) 15:41, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
