Wrong title
"A lowboy is an American collectors term for a dressing table, or vanity" - in other words, it is generally known as a dressing table in the rest of the world, and a vanity, or vanity table, in the U.S. Why is the article named by a term used mainly by American collectors? I propose that this article be moved to "Dressing table" and that "Lowboy" should be a redirect pointing here. David_FLXD (Talk) 18:12, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
- Yes & no - what we need is a proper article on dressing tables. The ideal source is: Adlin, Jane, with contributions from Lori Zabar, Vanities: art of the dressing table, reprint from the Bulletin of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Fall 2013, Volume LXXI, number 2, 2013, Metropolitan Museum of Art, downloadable PDF Johnbod (talk) 14:12, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
- I am writing an article right now. A stub is available at User:Викидим/Dressing table. Thank you for the link (I actually have a paper copy). Викидим (talk) 05:53, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

Wrong redirect from 'dressing table'
Tried to get to 'dressing table', but was redirected to a specific type of dressing table rather than an actual page for information on dressing tables. not good organization here. 173.72.178.66 (talk) 18:46, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
- Will be fixed real soon now (see above). --Викидим (talk) 05:51, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

Vanity
There is a sentence at the end of the article that start with Another term for a dressing table equipped with mirrors is vanity
. While true, and correctly sourced, it has little to do with the term "lowboy", which is very specific. We have article Dressing table where the generic terms are explored. My suggestion is to delete this sentence. Викидим (talk) 20:29, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
