The text states that the head is too heavy to be mounted with the body, and is instead on the second floor balcony. Yet right next to that is a picture of the skeleton, head and all. So does it have head or not? The pictures below imply that there was some change made in 2005 but it's not explained in the article at all. Pimlottc 13:54, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
Sue the dinosaur redirects here...shouldn't she have her own page? RJASE1 04:40, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

This article will require some work. The whole temporary exhibits section could be cut to one line. If people want to know the temp exhibits at any given time they can check the museum website. As it is that information is unencyclopeidic as far as I can tell. A mcmurray 03:09, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
The 'Temporary exhibits' section is outdated and requires work! -- 98.193.61.220 ( talk) 04:05, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
The Field Museum lobby is seen in the closing shots of Damien: Omen II, a circa 1980 film. Check that film's article. WHPratt ( talk) 20:34, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
Please create a works section or bibliography for the publications of the museum.

The description of the change of name is incomplete. It implies that the museum's name changed from Columbian Museum of Chicago to Field Museum of Natural History in 1905. This is clearly incomplete as in 1901 one of its publications appeared under the name Field Columbian Museum. It is clear that the Field name was added earlier than 1905; further investigation into the sources to clarify the changing name is called for. SteveMcCluskey ( talk) 19:00, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
Popular YouTube show The Brain Scoop is moving from the Philip L. Wright Zoological Museum to The Field Museum, soon. See this blog post by Emily Graslie (embedded in the followup by Hank Green) explaining the situation. (Therefor: An army of curious nerdfighters will probably be visiting this page, in the near future ;) – Quiddity ( talk) 17:38, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: No consensus to move as requested an err in nomination rationale noted probably contributed to this lack of consensus as Field Museum of Natural History is the official name per IRS filings IRS 990 2012 not The Field Museum which is their brand name.

The Field Museum – The Field Museum is the official name of the museum, "of Natural History" was used before 1996 –

Hello! I was assigned this article for class and will be editing it periodically until the end of May 2023. I have a detailed project proposal handy if you're interested.
tl;dr version: I'll be doing a major overhaul of the Cultural Halls subsection. With my most recent edit I modified Cultural Hall subsection and created new paragraphs for Africa and Peoples of the Arctic and Northwest Coast. Gryphonheart13 ( talk) 20:41, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
My project is now complete. Here's a summary of changes:
Series 1: I added a paragraph with three hyperlinks to the Cultural Halls Section. I used two references: Kuta [magazine] and Lupton [exhibit review] Series 2: I added a paragraph with two hyperlinks to the Cultural Halls Section. I used two references: Kuta [magazine] and Lupton [exhibit review] I added a few sentences and a reference -- Swyers [journal] -- to the Ancient Americas section. I created a subsection titled "People of the Arctic and Pacific Northwest and added a paragraph with one reference (Lupton) and three hyperlinks. I created a subsection titled "Regenstein Halls of the Pacific" and added a paragraph. The paragraph includes three hyperlinks and three references: Kaeppler [exhibit review], Welsch [journal], and Kahn [journal] I added an image of a totem pole to the Peoples of the Arctic and Pacific Northwest subsection.
Series 3: I added the Africa subsection and wrote a paragraph describing the exhibit. I hyperlinked to five different Wikipedia articles: ethnographic, Sahara, East African rift, African diaspora, and slave trade. I used two references for this edit: Demissie, Fassil; Apter, Andrew [exhibit review] and Welsch, Robert [journal]
Series 4: I added a paragraph to the Ancient Americas section and cited four peer-reviewed sources. I added a sentence to the Peoples of the Arctic and Pacific Northwest sub-section that cited a peer-reviewed source. I created the Cyrus Tang Hall of China subsection and cited two sources. One of them was peer-reviewed. I created the Native Truths: Our Voices. Our Stories subsection and cited two sources. One of them was peer-reviewed. I uploaded and inserted four images related to the cultural halls: an Aztec sunstone, a Yoruba mask, a statue of Wei Tuo, and the Maori Meeting House displayed at the FMNH.
