Shouldn't this article contains some reference to chair rails since that is often the dividing line between the lower 3 feet paneling and the upper part of the wall? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 199.253.16.1 (talk) 13:58, August 20, 2007 (UTC)

text from Wainscoting talk page pre-merger Erk|Talk _{-- I like traffic lights --} 04:32, 21 November 2006 (UTC) this page needs a picture -- done![reply]

Removed link to "moulding (decorative)" as it was redundant.

Please change the text on the image to wainscoting, with one "T" to be consistant with the rest of the text.

Could someone upload a better image of wainscoting? It's hard to get an idea of the scale of that pic in the thumbnail. 203.17.70.161 (talk) 06:38, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm for it. Boiserie, wainscoting, and panelling are all stubs. Together they could be a reasonable article, and panelling is a good blanket topic for them. "By your powers combined, I am Captain Panel!"

Oh god, I am a dork. Erk|Talk _{-- I like traffic lights --} 00:09, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• I'm for it too - but then I proposed one. --Mcginnly | Natter 00:32, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• OK, as long as the article also talks about the traditional framed paneling as well as the butt-ugly prefinished plywood or hardboard panelling in 4X8 sheets that was found in all basement rec-rooms in North America (and possibly elsewhere?) from the 1950s to the 70s.

• Count me in as a yes (but I also proposed one :-) ). TerriersFan 02:22, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

how is that? It needs better integration but it includes all the previous information. The top blurb needs work especially. Erk|Talk _{-- I like traffic lights --} 04:17, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have completed the merge by fixing the double redirects. TerriersFan 23:52, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I moved the following contribution here:

"In episode 20 of the BBC sketch comedy Monty Python's Flying Circus, wainscoting is mentioned (the context being that sheep have invaded the walls of an old lady's house). During the scene, one of the characters trails off by stating that the name sounds like a dorset village. Immediatly the scene switches to the (fictional) village of 'Wains Cotting' where a lady runs out of her house and shouts, "We've been mentioned on the telly!" When the word 'wainscoting' is said once more by the same character, the scene switches back to Wains Cotting where the lady shouts, "They said it again!""

It is unsourced and I fail to see how it is either encyclopaedic or benefits the article. Views, please.TerriersFan 23:26, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Both articles ("Panelling" and "Dado (Architecture)") seem to amount to the same thing. If the two words mean the same thing, perhaps these articles should be combined. Respectfully, Harold Helson — Preceding unsigned comment added by HaroldHelson (talk • contribs) 17:50, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
