-ia suffix

It seems likely to me that the "-ia" suffix is a reference to "Portlandia (statue)" or maybe the television series Portlandia. If only there were sourcing! ☆ Bri (talk) 15:55, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

:There is some info re: inspiration for the project but nothing specific to the title, unfortunately. {{Ping|APK}} BTW, you seemed to enjoy reviewing Coraline's Curious Cat Trail, if you're interested in a somewhat similar article. ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:09, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

Sculpture?

Generally speaking, the displays are made of painted plywood. Would this be considered sculpture? This is kind of a grey area because two-dimensional images are painted on slightly 3D wood surfaces, but also the pieces of wood are layered to give depth. If so, we could add :Category:Sculptures of dinosaurs, :Category:Statues in Portland, Oregon, and :Category:Wooden sculptures in Oregon. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:37, 21 May 2025 (UTC)
