Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Consider adding a topic to this template: there are already 316 articles in the main category, and specifying|topic= will aid in categorization.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.
You must provide copyright attribution in the edit summary accompanying your translation by providing an interlanguage link to the source of your translation.

The Y-Block was a building in Oslo, Norway, extant from 1970 to 2020. The building, designed in a Brutalist style by Erling Viksjø, was part of the Regjeringskvartalet (Government Quarter) in the centre of the city. It featured two murals by Pablo Picasso. It was one of few sites with murals designed by Picasso, along with the Château de Castille in France and the Col·legi d'Arquitectes de Catalunya in Barcelona.[1]
The building was damaged during the 2011 Norway attacks. In 2020, following intense public debate, the building's murals were removed and the remaining structure was demolished. The murals are planned to be incorporated into a replacement building.[1][2]
