Is it 'S-with-a-period' or 'S-without'? —wwoods 03:42, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
With. A topic of endless repetition at
Talk:Harry S. Truman -- see
this section of the main article. It's been discussed to death, as archives of the Truman article will attest.

As stated here in the United States Code -- Designation of Department of State Building as Harry S Truman Federal Building, Pub. L. 106–218, June 20, 2000, 114 Stat. 345, provided that: "The Federal building located at 2201 C Street, Northwest, in the District of Columbia, currently headquarters for the Department of State, shall be known and designated as the `Harry S Truman Federal Building'." -- Blairall ( talk) 19:29, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved to Harry S Truman Building. Favonian ( talk) 14:08, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
Harry S. Truman Building → Harry S Truman Building – Per Talk:Harry S. Truman/FAQ this is the proper name but seems to be ignored by people overzealous to maintain the consistency of the period in Truman's middle name. The Building (as well as the College) break that consistency. However, since it's been moved back and forth so much by people not knowing it's proper name, it should be moved back and probably move-protected (like Truman himself).-- Tim Thomason 02:19, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

FN2 links to a PDF about the Missouri state office building with the 53 acres size number. This needs to be removed or replaced. Sorry I can't do it right now but wanted to flag this. Jeisenberg ( talk) 18:30, 22 October 2023 (UTC) Jeisenberg ( talk) 18:30, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
The twentieth-century history section is almost entirely plagiarized from the GSA webpage about the HST building, found here: https://www.gsa.gov/real-estate/historic-preservation/explore-historic-buildings/find-a-building/all-historic-buildings/harry-s-truman-federal-building-washington-dc. Some parts appear to be from ref 5 without in-text attribution, ex. the distinction between "Old State" and "New State." Unkeptsecrets ( talk) 02:39, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
