This template has been created to potentially replace the various lists of rooms that appear onHouse,House plan, andSingle-family detached home.--Jrsnbarn (talk)16:46, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
For what it's worth, no, the disambiguation page at "Storage" does not give a definition for this term. This is likely to come up again until such time as the new article mentioned is created.Dekimasuよ!14:34, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
What is meant by "lounge"? This could represent aWaiting room, which is already in the article. Or aLiving room, which is also there. Or aBar (establishment), or anAirport lounge. In the comments I see: "a public waiting area provided with seating as in a hotel; do NOT disambiguate to living room." Is that alobby?
I think the issue I see here is that the term provided is too vague to have any real meaning. In some cases, the possible meaning isn't even a public area. I suggest giving the term more precision instead of using a blanket term and throwing the link to the DAB page. Right now, it doesn't seem all that useful to me, and I don't see much potential in a general "lounge" article since the term is pretty vague by definition.--Transity(talk •contribs)16:58, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Under Private spaces or whatever, one of the links isBatcave, from Batman. Is this vandalism? {{SUBST:User:Flarn2005/sig}} 20:39, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
Some homes in the British Isles have a small, private room called a snug. It was on the template for a while but was removed for some strange reason. Also, mud room really should have its own entry instead of being hidden under entryway. If someone wants to learn about mud rooms, it is doubtful that they would look under entryway.75.32.62.255 (talk)11:21, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Another thing that would be useful would be to include such things as an Edinburgh Press. I've heard of them but don't really know what they are. Information on them is rather sparse. About the only real explanation I've seen is athttp://www.scotslanguage.com/articles/words/566.75.32.62.255 (talk)01:07, 30 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Another missing room that seems to be becoming somewhat popular in the US is the return of a "keeping room" adjacent to or connected to the kitchen.65.68.182.238 (talk)08:32, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
(My response to revert perWP:BRD) It doesn't seem very useful to me, to clutter the navbox just to offer to a reader ofClassroom to have a quick single-click navigation toFainting room. For the miniscule minority of users interested in a very broad class of "all things that have 'room' in the name or are closely related to such", it is sufficient to useCategory:Rooms. I propose to limit the scope of the navbox to rooms of a house, like inmy edit. --Kubanczyk (talk)10:25, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
"I propose to limit the scope of the navbox to rooms of a house" Is that your house, most houses, or rooms that are common in at least some houses in some countries?
For example, most houses would not have a room called a "snug", but some do. There are also "cloak rooms". And "mud rooms". Some houses have a "boot room" which some times seem to be a "mud room" and other times seem to be the same as a "man cave".75.32.54.85 (talk)02:45, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
