Talk:Robert Mosher

I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:

This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:

1. There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
2. It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
3. In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:18, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

I propose removing the passages that refer to his apprenticeship with Frank Lloyd Wright, on two grounds.

1. As written, this article is claiming that Robert Mosher became Frank Lloyd Wright's apprentice and a member of the Taliesin Fellowship when he was just 12 years old. That's a remarkable achievement, even if he was interested in architecture as a boy. I can't find any source which claims this. Perhaps there was a later period of apprenticeship, but one starting in 1932 seems improbable.
2. The citations which mention a Wright apprentice named "Robert Mosher" probably refer to a man named Robert Keeler Mosher (1909-1992), who after receiving an Architecture degree in 1932 from the University of Michigan joined the Taliesin group. He later moved to Spain and had an architectural career there. The cited thesis below discusses his biography and career.

I'm not editing myself as I have no subject-area knowledge here.
