This article's coverage is rather scattershot, but I think it would do well to merge in PWA Moderne and Greco Deco here. Both specifically refer to Art Deco architecture in the United States, as opposed to other countries ( stripped classicism). Length isn't a problem as most of this article is taken up with image galleries and most of PWA Moderne is taken up with unsourced building lists. Greco Deco specifically appears to be an undue weight split given that it's based on one author's terminology. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 19:24, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
I have finished the WP:FMERGE as requested by the discussion and tried my best to make it fit naturally in the article. But more work might be needed, just wanted to let any editors know. - Karthanitesh ( talk) 03:45, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
Public Works Administration and Works Progress Administration are different New Deal programs. "PWA Moderne" is a perhaps more common architectural term, applying to PWA-built buildings of restrained Art Deco style. "WPA Moderne" has some usage. I already asked a while back, at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject National Register of Historic Places/Archive 69#Is WPA Moderne the same as PWA Moderne?, whether other NRHP editors knew of any differences, and was cautioned not to conflate the two. There may be differences. In the absence of further information, I think it best to open a separate section on WPA Moderne, which had no mention in this article before.
Two articles in progress, coming to mainspace soon, which refer to WPA Moderne are:

You didn’t mention Tulsa in this article. Thankfully many of the Art Deco buildings survived the urban renewal efforts of the 60’s. As a child I witnessed the implosion of some of those gems 🥺 2A00:1028:8398:1C6A:E8B5:9527:DB91:96CF ( talk) 09:12, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
