==License tagging for File:Jean Metzinger, 1911-12, La Femme au Cheval, The Rider.jpg==
Thanks for uploading [[:File:Jean Metzinger, 1911-12, La Femme au Cheval, The Rider.jpg]].  You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image.  Wikipedia uses a set of [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags|image copyright tags]] to indicate this information. 

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/All|this list]], click on [[:File:Jean Metzinger, 1911-12, La Femme au Cheval, The Rider.jpg|this link]], then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description.  If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions]].  Thank you for your cooperation.<!-- User:OrphanBot/untagged-new --> --[[User:ImageTaggingBot|ImageTaggingBot]] ([[User talk:ImageTaggingBot|talk]]) 01:05, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

== [[Template:Did you know nominations/Robert Antoine Pinchon]] ==

Hi, I'm not sure whether you knew that [[Robert Antoine Pinchon]] had been nominated for Did You Know? I've now reviewed it and have some concerns; could you have a look? In particular, there are several paragraphs with no reference, and Did You Know requires at least one reference per paragraph. I also think from the style and length in some places that you may have translated the Lespinasse book a bit too closely, but I can't see it to verify. [[User:Yngvadottir|Yngvadottir]] ([[User talk:Yngvadottir|talk]]) 22:28, 20 March 2012 (UTC)



From Coldcreation: Hi, thanks for your time spent. I've gone back and fixed up a few things (see edits) and added the citations where needed. Indeed, the Lespinasse book is a great source, not just for text but for photos. I did my best to put some of his writings into my own words. Otherwise I would place quotes around the text (in the case of a literal translation, usually short) [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 15:59, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

:Yes, I did see; thanks for all that effort! I did some further shortening and rewording and added two more mid-paragraph refs to Lespinasse on the assumption those facts were also from there. And I replaced the mention of a photo of him painting at age 12 with the one of a photo of him painting at age 8 that was in at least two sources I can see, and referenced it from one of them. I think between us we have probably eliminated any overly close translation there may have been, so I have given it its tick. [[User:Yngvadottir|Yngvadottir]] ([[User talk:Yngvadottir|talk]]) 20:09, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

Coldcreation wrote: The photograph of R.A. Pinchon, on page 14 of Lespinasse, 2007, is from 1898. The painting pictured in that photograph is dated 98. He is clearly not 8 years old in that picture. So I can only assume that sources stating he is 8 years old are mistaken. Note too that there is, on the same page in Lespinasse, a color reproduction of the painting with the date visible. From 1 July 1898 Pinchon was 12. Aside from that change (which I just made) everything else appears accurate.[[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 06:38, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

* The Copyright tag for this image has been modified to the more general PD-US-1923-abroad. As such, this image is perfectly suited to Wikipedia rules for the publication of images. This work by Pablo Picasso was published abroad before 1923, and thus can have no independent copyright in the United States. It is simply a faithful reproduction of an old, public domain, 2-dimensional work of art published outside the United States prior to 1923.

== I just added  ==

a book about [[Joseph Csaky]] to the ''Further reading'' section of the article about him and you removed it,calling it '''"unproductive"?'''.  What would be considered a '''productive''' title to add?  Einar aka [[User:Carptrash|Carptrash]] ([[User talk:Carptrash|talk]]) 19:16, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

* Perhaps 'unproductive' was not the right word. Sorry for that. But that book by Balas is referenced in the article 15 times (See section entitled ''References''). There is no need to place the same reference in the article in yet another section: 'Further reading', which is already loaded with further things to read.[[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 19:33, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
Makes sense. I felt that I was having a "productive" day editing and that word just hit me wrong.  Life is supposed to be interesting. [[User:Carptrash|Carptrash]] ([[User talk:Carptrash|talk]]) 19:39, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

* The intention was good, and that counts very much Carptrash. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 19:43, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
Another thought.  I have been doing stubs for the [[red linked]] artists on the [[ List of artists in the Armory Show]] list and did a rather unsatisfactory one for [[Jacqueline Marval]].  Since you seem to have a firm grounding in French art perhaps you could take a look at it?  [[User:Carptrash|Carptrash]] ([[User talk:Carptrash|talk]]) 16:13, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I nominated [[En Canot, Im Boot (Metzinger)|''En Canot, Im Boot'' (Metzinger)]] for DYK: [[Template:Did you know nominations/En Canot, Im Boot (Metzinger)]]. If you have any suggestions for changing the hook or adding alternate ones, please go for it. (I discovered this article because the new notification system told me that an article I wrote, [[Georg Muche]], had been linked to from yours.)

* Excellent, thanks Mandarax, I think both the artist and the painting (wherever it may or may not be) merit the nomination. Good article, by the way, your [[Georg Muche]]. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 19:44, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
:*Thanks. I had difficulty with the Muche article and was just glad to be done with it. I wish I was as good a writer as you are, but I plod along doing the best I can....

I hadn't looked at the [[Jean Metzinger]] article for a long time. Not long ago, when it was a tiny stub, I put it on my long list of articles that I'd like to expand some day. Wow, I checked it out today. Thanks for enabling me to cross that off the list! I'm sure you did a ''much'' better job than I would have. Ah, I just wish it had been nominated for DYK. It's been on my watchlist forever, but I guess I missed it when you were working on the expansion. (Alas, the vandals get more of my watchlist attention.) Thanks for the great work you're doing! [[User:Mandarax|<span style="color:green">M<small>AN</small>d<small>ARAX</small></span>]]&nbsp;<span style="color:blue">•</span>&nbsp;[[User talk:Mandarax|<span style="color:#999900"><small>XAЯA</small>b<small>ИA</small>M</span>]] 10:54, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

:The DYK stalled because someone left an absolutely ridiculous comment (the 201-character hook was over the limit of 200) and, unfortunately, there's a mentality at DYK that, once someone has added a comment, no matter how ridiculous, nobody else will touch the nomination. Somebody finally left a useful comment – that there are some unreferenced paragraphs. DYK guidelines suggest that there be at least one inline citation for every paragraph other than the lead (with a few exceptions). Can you add citations to the paragraphs which have none? Thanks. Oh, and thanks again for all of your hard work. These days, I think you're the person who pops up on my watchlist most often.

:*In case you hadn't noticed, the hook did very well. It got [http://stats.grok.se/en/201306/En_Canot,_Im_Boot_%28Metzinger%29 well over 5000 page views], which was enough to earn a place in [[Wikipedia:Did_you_know/Statistics#June_2013|this month's DYK hall of fame]] (and it will be permanently archived [[WP:DYKSTATS/Archive_2013#June_2013|here]] when the month is over). Oh, and [[Jean Metzinger]], also linked in the hook, also [http://stats.grok.se/en/201306/Jean%20Metzinger got a lot of hits]. I'm glad so many people got to see your great articles.

* I saw the notice yesterday, Mandarax. Was waiting to see the number of views. I'm glad it idid well, will hold a place in the hall of fame and be permanently archived. I think Metzinger would have appreciated it too had he been around. Such a sensitive and intelligent man, he deserves the recognition for sure. Thanks again Mandarax...

== Couchée de soleil? ==

Why does the title of that Jean Metzinger painting, contain a French mistake? Do you know what the history behind it is? <small><font style="color:#C0C0C0;font-family:Courier New;">Contact </font><font style="color:blue;font-family:Courier-New;">[[User:Basemetal|Basemetal]]</font> <font style="color:red;font-family:Courier-New;">[[User talk:Basemetal|here]]</font></small> 19:49, 19 June 2013 (UTC)<br><br>

* Good question Basemetal. The source of the error, as far back as I could find, is from a publication: ''Neo-Impressionism'', Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Robert L. Herbert, ‎1968.<br><br>

In ''Neo-Impressionism'' it is written on page 219:

<blockquote>161 LANDSCAPE (COUCHER DU SOLEIL). 1906-1907<br>

Oil on canvas, 28 1/2 x 39 1/4" (72.5 x 100 cm.).<br>

Signed l.r. "J. Metzinger" and verso "Couchée de soleil no. 1".<br>

Verso: RlVER SCENE WlTH SHlPS.<br>

Collection Rijksmuseum Kröller-Müller, Otterlo.</blockquote>

There is a a photograph of the verso of the painting in the same publication. The title Metzinger wrote on the back is in fact neither COUCHER DU SOLEIL (Coucher du soleil) or Couchée de soleil no. 1

Next to Metzinger's signature on the reverse, the title reads: ''Coucher de soleil''. The  n° 1 is written above that title.

Unfortunately, I had not examined very closely the back of the work or I clearly would have seen Metzinger's actual title before publishing this article. Note: the verso has another painting (River scene with ships) upon which is superimposed, upside down relative to the River scene, Metzinger actual title. There is a mosaic-like rectangle of paint above the "e" of Coucher that looks like an acute accent (accent aigu). However, the "r" that follows is certainly not another "e" forming 'Couchée' as Robert Herbert must have thought.

So the correct title of this work is indeed '''''Coucher de soleil no. 1'''''.

Now all I need to figure out is how to change the title of the article. In the mean time I will, thanks to your inquiry, change the title where it appears in the article. Thanks again Basemetal.   EDIT-> I've just added this discussion to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Couchée_de_soleil_no._1_(Metzinger)#Couch.C3.A9e_de_soleil.3F the talk page] of the article in question. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 21:20, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

All of those files are miss-tagged. See {{tl|PD-1923}}. [[User:Werieth|Werieth]] ([[User talk:Werieth|talk]]) 17:51, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

* The Metzinger images in question are tagged:
# An appropriate '''copyright tag''' explaining the basic claim of [[fair use]] is given for each work.
# A separate, detailed, specific '''fair use rationale''' is provided each time the image is used in an article. The name of the article within which the image appears is included in the rationale. 

These are low resolution images used for encyclopedic purposes. They are essential to the articles in question. Please do not remove them for their respective articles.

==TemplateData is here==
Hey Coldcreation

I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).

So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.

What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.

The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small [[JSON]] data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor/TemplateData tutorial|here]], along with a [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor/TemplateData|list of prominent templates]], although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback|Feedback]] page.

Hi. Please explain [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre-Auguste_Renoir&diff=574643213&oldid=574639657 this change]. [[User:Tomer T|Tomer T]] ([[User talk:Tomer T|talk]]) 01:08, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

* Hello Tomer T. Yes, sorry, I should have explained as I made the change (EDIT: though I notice you did not give a reason for your edit either). I happened upon the Renoir article a few days ago and was pleasantly surprised to see a photo of the artist snapped during his first artistic peak, at a time around which he was painting ''Le Moulin de la Galette'', during the Impressionist period, before the turn of the century, at a time when he was considered as a ground-breaking artist. 

* The image of Renoir you included (in place of the former) is similar to the ones found throughout the Internet, of a Renoir towards the end of his career, well beyond his prime as an artist, at a time when Impressionism had already been replaced as an avant-garde phenomenon first by [[Symbolism]], then [[Neo-Impressionism]], [[Divisionism]], [[Fauvism]], and even [[Proto-Cubism]] (c. 1910). If you would like to discuss the matter further, to reach some form of general consensus, feel free to post in the Talk section of the Renoir article.

== Bohr's Philosophy Edits ==
Dear Coldcreation,
You have reverted my corrections to Bohr's Philosophy section. I have made every effort to comply with the Wikipedia guidelines, but if I have missed anything I would appreciate an openly voiced correction, rather than a silent deletion. As it currently is, the article grossly misrepresents a very important aspect of Bohr's life, and showing only one side of this issue violates every principle of honest representation. I would be happy to consider any specific and relevant criticisms on the matter, but for the integrity of the article and the quality of your own reputation it seems in your interest to undo this deletion for now. Thank you for your work.

::If you would like to include your text in the article post it first in the Talk page for consensus. Nothing personal, but the article seemed better before your post. The quote you used was unrelated to Bohr (per your source link), and the long sentences were awkwardly composed. Certainly, you could come up with another way of saying what you wrote. Using shorter sentences may help, along with quotes directly related to Bohr's position on the topic. Thanks for your comprehension.

== Paul Biva (French wikipédia) ==

Thank you for uploading the picture "Idyllische Flusslandschaft.jpg", but, most of the pictures I had inserted before on the Paul Biva page have been deleted (and probably those you mention as having worked on because they were "floues") because they had not been officially published before : i.e. in an exhibition catalogue, or by a commercial publisher. Even pictures from auction sales are not allowed, although they may have been published in a catalogue. Therefore your picture "Idyllische Flusslandschaft.jpg", from the catalogue of the auctioneers Dorotheum will probably be deleted by the same robot or "cleaner". I have the feeling that the French wikipedia is a lot stricter than the English/American one. Otherwise i would have many more pictures form both Henri, Paul and Lucien Biva to upload !--[[User:Martine Vidal|Martine Vidal]] ([[User talk:Martine Vidal|talk]]) 18:09, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

:: Dear Martine Vidal, thanks for your input and contribution to the Biva articles. Wikimedia Commons is an online repository of free-use images. The work of Paul Biva is in the public domain in countries with a copyright term of life of the author plus 100 years or less. I've just added the template PD-art-100 to the Commons images for Paul Biva. There is no reason why the photos you uploaded cannot be used in the French [[fr:Paul Biva|Paul Biva]] article. The user that removed them for the Paul Biva article was not justified in doing so. They need not be published. My only recommendation is to use good quality images. Pictures from auction sales are allowed. The images you uploaded are in the public domain because they represent works of art painted by a French artist who died more than 100 years ago. I will see if I can find some nice works by P. Biva online, and I will upload them to Commons, then I will proceed to post them in the French [[fr:Paul Biva|Paul Biva]] article. Let me know what you think. P.S. I would love for you to upload more Paul and [[Henri Biva]] works to Commons. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 18:49, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

::: Martine, I've just upload to Commons some works by Paul Biva. They are now in the French Wikipedia article [[fr:Paul Biva|Paul Biva]]. See Galerie. I also modified the image of Paul himself; a wonderful photo by the way. I hope the enhancement to your liking. Do you have any photographs of Henri Biva? [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 00:55, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

:: Bonjour, many thanks for the addition of the Paul Biva Galerie; I do hope it stays uploaded. The argument given for deleting my own images was : "retrait de sources primaires (ventes aux enchères)", and I had this, previously : "L'article est illustré de plusieurs œuvres émanant d'une « collection privée ». Si ces œuvres n'ont pas été reproduites dans des sources secondaires vérifiables (monographies éditées à compte d'éditeur, catalogue d'exposition de musée reconnu, article dans la presse...), elles constituent des sources primaires et devront donc être retirées. --90.2.33.82 (d) 7 octobre 2012 à 23:35 (CEST)". 
The pictures I might add are from my personal collection of paintings, so I expect they would even less qualify, but I will try as soon as I have time. Again many thanks for your help. --[[User:Martine Vidal|Martine Vidal]] ([[User talk:Martine Vidal|talk]]) 16:48, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

:: Hi Martine. The person that informed you and deleted the images didn't know what s/he was doing. These images (yours included) are perfectly usable in Wikimedia Commons, and thus in Wikipedia for any country that respects the PD-art-100 law, copyright term of life of the author plus 100 years. All Paul Biva (and Henri Biva) works are in the public domain in the source country: in this case France. If anyone removes the images let me know.

::So, do you have any Henri Biva images (of the artist or his work) that you would be willing to share? A long time ago, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Henri_Biva&action=history 9 March 2012], after correcting dates for Henri Biva and for Lucien Biva, you wrote "I have a few more details about the Biva family that I may add".

==Copyvio re-addition==
Hi! You reverted my removal of copyvio material from [[Dick Higgins]] even though I clearly described it as such in my edit summary, and gave the link, http://archives2.getty.edu:8082/xtf/view?docId=ead/870613/870613.xml. You also did the same at three other articles. I'm quite sure you didn't mean to add copyright-infringing material to the encyclopaedia, but that is what you have done. Rather than undo your edits, I thought it would be more polite to ask you to do so yourself. Best regards, [[User:Justlettersandnumbers|Justlettersandnumbers]] ([[User talk:Justlettersandnumbers|talk]]) 10:23, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
:: Hello Justlettersandnumbers. There is likely a misunderstanding. I simply replaced the External links you removed from three articles. While it is not recommended to provide many external links, several you removed were of importance. They should probably be selectively included rather than across-the-board deleted (as you have done). Your Getty links appears valuable, and so I will leave you to choose the course of action to take. Though I would dislike to see many more mass-deletions of external links in the near future (as I feel they add often precious information to the encyclopedic content provided to our users). As far as I know, adding external links does not amount to adding copyright-infringing material. Thanks for your kind message. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 11:03, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
:::Thanks for your pleasant reply. The copyvio is not in the link, but in the description that follows it, which in almost every case this user, whose only activity under three or perhaps four names has been to spam links to the Getty archive (not something that is likely to please that outstanding institution), has copied ''verbatim'' from the archive description. If you feel that the links themselves are valuable (they were, as I recall, also broken, btw), then I will probably just remove the descriptions from them if I do not find that you have already done so when I get around to that. 
:::On external links in general, it's my opinion that since excessive external links are generally discouraged and numerous references are encouraged, the best thing to do with useful links is to use them as references.

Per [[WP:RM|Wikipedia:Requested moves]], potentially controversial moves must be discussed through a [[WP:RM|move request]] before the move is carried out. Any move of a page with a longstanding title and/or a large number of incoming links should be considered potentially controversial. Furthermore, per [[WP:TWODABS]], it is not necessary to have a disambiguation page if there are only two possible meanings of a term, and one of them can be considered the [[WP:Primary topic|primary topic]] of the term. In that case, it is sufficient to place a hatnote at the top of the primary topic page indicating the existence of the other page. Since no discussion has occurred with respect to these articles, no evidence has been presented to upset the presumption that the longstanding page at this title is the primary topic of this title. Cheers! [[User:BD2412|<span style="background:gold;">'''''bd2412'''''</span>]] [[User talk:BD2412|'''T''']] 14:10, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
:Hello Coldcreation. Your requested move at  [[Talk:Daniel Robbins#Requested move]] has run for seven days but is now up for closure. So far nobody but yourself has commented. If I were to close it now, most likely the result would be No Move, since the programmer Daniel Robbins has more than 250 incoming links on Wikipedia. This is not really a judgment on the world-historical importance of either person, but when there are only two people to be distinguished, putting a [[hatnote]] on the top of one of them is commonly done. Which one will get the unqualified name, and which one gets the hatnote, is negotiable but may not be a crucial decision. I also discussed this at [[User talk:BD2412#Talk:Daniel Robbins#Requested move]]. Thank you, [[User:EdJohnston|EdJohnston]] ([[User talk:EdJohnston|talk]]) 19:50, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
:: I would suggest [[Wikipedia:RM#Relisting|relisting the discussion]] for another week, to be sure. Cheers! [[User:BD2412|<span style="background:gold;">'''''bd2412'''''</span>]] [[User talk:BD2412|'''T''']] 20:17, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
::: Thanks for the suggestions. I don't think the number of incoming links should trump notability, so another week would probably be a good idea. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 01:39, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

== The Kiss ==

Thanks for pointing out the error in my poorly thought page-move. I felt the best way to correct it was a three-part move: I moved Rodin's sculpture back to "[[The Kiss (Rodin sculpture)]]", while moving, for consistency, Brâncuși's sculpture to "[[The Kiss (Brâncuși sculpture)]]". Meanwhile, I made "[[The Kiss (sculpture)]]" a disambiguation page. Please feel free to comment and/or fix/revert anything I may have screwed up. Thanks again!

Hi

Just to say that I appreciate your efforts in cleaning up my piece on Dubois. Never sure whether to put "musée" or "Musée"! Thanks again

== [[Pablo Picasso]] ==

Hi, you undid my edit, saying "source needed for such a claim" [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pablo_Picasso&oldid=592007865&diff=prev]. [[WP:LEADCITE]] advises {{quote|1=Because the lead will usually repeat information that is in the body, editors should balance the desire to avoid redundant citations in the lead with the desire to aid readers in locating sources for challengeable material.}} The claim is supported by the sources in the body of the article. &mdash;[[User_talk:Rybec|<font color="black"><span style="background:#ccccff">rybec</span></font>]] 11:14, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
: Feel free to revert my revert, but the list of things Picasso did is already extensive in the intro. He also enjoyed shooting photographs. But this fact and the ones you wrote are not the most important points covered in the article, which is the purpose of the lead. Perhaps the word artist is sufficient.

== [[Arthur Dove]] ==

Your revert of my edits to [[Arthur Dove]] is in direct contracted with the policy-backed consensus at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content_review#Arthur_Dove WP:NFCR]. Regardless of whether there is a FUR, consensus determined that the images fail [[WP:NFCC]] and should therefore be removed. I do not care either way, I just made the close as an uninvolved editor.  -- [[User:ТимофейЛееСуда|<font color="#336699">'''Тимофей'''</font>]]<font color="#335599">'''Лее'''</font>[[User_talk:ТимофейЛееСуда|'''<font color="#333399">Суда</font>''']].  22:30, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

:: So, because YOU feel the images need to be seen, its okay to go against [[WP:CONSENSUS]] and [[WP:NFCC]]? -- [[User:ТимофейЛееСуда|<font color="#336699">'''Тимофей'''</font>]]<font color="#335599">'''Лее'''</font>[[User_talk:ТимофейЛееСуда|'''<font color="#333399">Суда</font>''']].  22:34, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

:::: I do apologize for raising my caps; you are correct that was uncalled for. Also, I should have phrased it better, I do not care if the images are used. But I do care if policy is followed and consensus determined that those images did not. It looks like there are many many paintings by Dove that are in the public domain.  The other option is to make the images not violate WP:NFCC (specifically #8) and gain consensus for their inclusion.  As an outsider, it looks like there is no context of the Me and the Moon image in the infobox.  Per WP:NFCC there must be critical commentary and there was none.  For the other image (Nature Symbolized or Reefs) the article only discusses that he creates it.  Point 8 of WP:NFCC requires that there be content in the article about the non-free images that requires the images be included.  What this breaks down to is you don't need to see the image to know he painted it.  But if there were content about the style he painted on that specific image, and why he painted, or the colors, etc, it would be necessary to the image being there. Good luck with whatever you choose to do. -- [[User:ТимофейЛееСуда|<font color="#336699">'''Тимофей'''</font>]]<font color="#335599">'''Лее'''</font>[[User_talk:ТимофейЛееСуда|'''<font color="#333399">Суда</font>''']].  22:46, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

== About ARTUNAD (Gustave Miklos's page) ==

Hello Coldcreation,

I see you have canceled several times ARTUNAD's changes on Gustave Miklos's page. ARTUNAD was recently blocked 24h on French Wikipedia for vandalism and multiple passages strength. This is a repeat offender. Because of him, Heddryin put the blindfold R3R on Gustave Miklos's page (French Wikipedia). I quote Heddryin (28/11/2013) : "''Malgré de nombreuses remarques de différents contributeurs, ARTUNAD continue à imposer son point de vue dans cet article. Le bandeau R3R est mis en place''".

Its main source is the book of Mrs Danuta Cichocka (''Gustave Miklos. Un Grand œuvre caché''), published in ''September 2013'' by her own publishing house (so without no review committee). This book was rejected as ''source'' on French Wikipedia because it has no reputation (it is just allowed to appear in the bibliography section).

You may also notice that A(r)TUNAD = DANUTA backwards. ARTUNAD looking to advertise Mrs Danuta Cichocka's book (600 copies, each of which costs 225 euros).

Warnings and blocking are shown here:
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discussion_utilisateur:ARTUNAD#Pas_une_source. So, your suspicious reaction is perfectly justified. Good day, [[User:BerAnth|BerAnth]] ([[User talk:BerAnth|talk]]) 10:21, 10 February 2014 (UTC). And thanks Google translate :o)

:: Merci, [[User:BerAnth|BerAnth]] ([[User talk:BerAnth|talk]]). I will go back to the English [[Gustave Miklos]] article and remove anything left behind by that user. Thanks for keeping me posted.

== Jacques Doucet and his hotel ==

Hi, would you like to add some text about Doucet's hotel to [[Jacques Doucet]] just to give the image a bit more context? As it currently stands, it is floating there, without contextualisation, and doesn't relate to anything currently in the article text. I nearly removed it as a good-faith edit, but thought I'd ask you first if you had any interest in expanding the article with a section about the hotel to contextualise it. I HAVE moved the image to the other side though, as it knocked the layout a bit out. All best, [[User:Mabalu|Mabalu]] ([[User talk:Mabalu|talk]]) 13:33, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
:: Certainly. Thanks for contacting me first. As soon as I get a moment I will expand on the Doucet studio image.[[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 13:36, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

== Clyfford Still page  ==

Hello, Coldcreation. 

I work with the Clyfford Still Museum and have been attempting to strengthen the Clyfford Still wikipedia page. The times I have made edits, they have been deleted. Just know that we are gathering our references to make the content verifiable, and would appreciate some feedback or comments form you concerning the success of the page. Which parts need citations immediately, and which can be added after the skeleton of the page is fleshed out? 

Thanks,

*Hello CSMwikipage,
:When making changes in the article, please briefly describe the changes you have made in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Edit_summary Edit summary] (located towards the bottom of the page you are editing). Also, note that you can make changes and preview them before actually saving the page (by clicking on the Show preview button, next to Save). In this way you can make several changes before finally saving a number of changes. This will make it easier for other editors to view the changes you've made. If you feel some of your previous edits to the [[Clyfford Still]] article are worthy of retaining feel free to reintroduce the material, but be sure to provide sources and references. A final note, be careful not to remove references and sources linked to the material already in the article, as you did in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Clyfford_Still&diff=610366636&oldid=609697131 this edit].

== Seurat ==

Hi, you appear to be a little trigger happy with your undo's at [[Georges Seurat]]. From the history, I can see there is a lot of vandalism and assorted nonsense going on, resulting in endless undos. Maybe you are not accustomed to seeing any constructive edits?
* You removed sourced and perfectly referenced material
* You removed an image which is actually discussed in the text and which depicts a person discussed in the text
* You removed an image which illustrates his life/death
* Your summary says: "Only major works". Since when? why? This is about an individual. Images illustrating subject's life are perfectly okay.
* You earlier removed his (sourced) date of birth from his bio because it is "a repetition of the intro". An intro is a summary, a bio is supposed to be complete. As a result of your edit, Seurat's date of birth is currently unsourced again.

This article really needs some help (lots of unsourced material, errors, glaring omissions) and is rather poor for a major artist like this. I would be happy to help, but not like this. Cheers, [[User:Superp|Superp]] ([[User talk:Superp|talk]]) 06:37, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

:: Perhaps you are correct. Though his birth dates is already mentioned twice in the article (lead and infobox). A third time may not be needed. No source for this date was removed. An image of his sepulture at Cimetière du Père-Lachaise is certainly not needed in the article (it neither illustrates his life or death). Imagine how many gravestone images would be found at Wikipedia if such were included in all article about dead people (or even half of them). In this case it adds nothing to the article. Feel free to add more material but make sure you provide sources. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 07:20, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
:::Hi again.
:::Summary: you complain about unsourced material, but I added none. You revert edits which add valid sources instead. Confusion ensues.
:::* I actually bought this book (new,  very well researched I think, great illustrations) partly because I thought it would be a valuable WP source. I came to this article because I think it could be better.  Almost everything I did so far, though I referenced it down to the exact page number, was kicked out by you. Seeing my edits being reverted like this demotivates like hell.
:::* As an aside, if you are an art lover and interested in Seurat c.s., get {{cite book|title=the book|isbn=9789073313286}}
:::* I have taken the time again to inspect every single edit I did, and can not find one bit that I did not ref. You keep talking about unsourced stuff. ''Can you please point out this alleged unsourced material, so I can improve my work method if needed''? Please provide a link to the diff. Thank you.
:::* Seurat's birthdate was unsourced.  After my edit, it was sourced. Now, after your revert, it is unsourced again. How is this better?
:::* The bit about Knoblock/Knobloch and their first child was unsourced. I added facts and a source, you reverted, so now we have unsourced text again and less facts. Why?
:::*That's two fact/ref relations I added, you rev'd.
:::*The tomb situation: you formulate a personal opinion as a fact. I think, on the other hand, the img brings across the time Seurat lived and his  family background. Nothing wrong with feeding the other half of the brain. It's something we could discuss.
:::*If you want me to contribute to the article, let me put this nicely, ''we have to work together in a different way''. This is just frustrating and wasting my time.

== Henry Moore photo on the Modernism page ==

Hi. I'm Doug 4. I noticed that you reverted my photo change for the Henry Moore sculpture on the Modernism page. I agree that a bronze would be preferable to the white painted plaster, but the photo angle of that bronze sculpture doesn't give an adequate sense of the sculpture's form, which for me is what distinguishes his work. I was looking on Wikipedia for something more like "Reclining Mother and Child" (1960-1), but the "Reclining Figure" (1951) was the best I could find.

::Hello [[User:Doug4|Doug4]], indeed, the white painted plaster is not typical of what one would expect of a work by Moore. However, at [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Henry_Moore Wikimedia Commons, Henry Moore] and also at Commons in the [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Henry_Moore Category:Henry Moore] there are quite a few bronzes that are exemplary of the artists works.

== Monet ==

Yeah, saw that discussion now, but still, I think the pictures  really is not quite enough to demonstrate Monet's diversity, and development. Many of them are the same: it's all  water-lilies and ponds and bridges and and La Gare Saint-Lazare...  it is getting close to a kind of  clichés. Actually same with van Gogh too, he made so many paintings that are airy, using pinks and light blues -and NOT always the strong colours he is known for. Anyway - Monet has many less iconic, but wonderful pictures worth showing  - don't want to create the idea that Monet=water lillies. Maybe it will be an an other article, if there is no place for them there. [[User:Hafspajen|Hafspajen]] ([[User talk:Hafspajen|talk]]) 19:42, 16 September 2014 (UTC).

== Article for Le Monde about Paris ==

Hi. My name is Eric Albert. I am a journalist working for [[Le Monde]] You can see my articles [http://www.lemonde.fr/journaliste/eric-albert/ on this page] 
I am contacting you as I am going to write an article about the interesting debate regarding the [[Paris]] page on Wikipedia in English, especially about the question of the Defense photo. I stumbled upon it by chance, researching something completely different but find the dispute very interesting. It raises interesting questions about the image of Paris but also about who decides what on Wikipedia. Would it be possible to talk to you about it, as you have contributed to the page? 
Sorry if it is not the right place to contact you, I am not a Wikipedia editor and not used to its internal system, although I did write [http://www.lemonde.fr/actualite-medias/article/2014/08/09/wikipedia-compte-ses-fans-et-s-interroge-sur-son-modele_4469500_3236.html/ a story about Wikipedia] (behind a paywall) during the last Wikimedia conference in London (I am based in London).

I have just blocked {{user|Minato ku}} for a clear 3RR-violation on [[Paris]], but I have to warn you too – while you didn't get beyond the count of 3, you too were clearly [[WP:EW|edit-warring]], and I cannot think that the POV and sourcing issue you were disagreeing over with Minato ku was of such a kind that blanket reverts (rather than, for instance, attempts at compromise edits or edits synthesizing both sets of statements in question) would have been the only solution, so this was clearly not constructive behaviour on either side.

== External media? ==

Noticed you removed a lot of them. Is there any reason behind it? I know Smallbones dislike them, but I think they do add to the articles. If there is any discussion on it I want to add it there too. [[User:Hafspajen|Hafspajen]] ([[User talk:Hafspajen|talk]]) 14:22, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
: Thanks for bringing up this issue [[User:Hafspajen|Hafspajen]]. I would love to know where this can be discussed. The problem with those external media [[Smarthistory]] videos, and their respective templates, is that they are all too often placed within the main body of text of a given article. They belong in External links. Occasionally, they reproduce images that are already in an article. In addition, Smarthistory adds references to these videos that appear in the Reference section of the article, when they are not at all references for the article content. The result of the latter is that the word Smarthistory appears 10 or more times within a given article (always bluelinked). This, and the placing of the templates within the main text, is a spam-like tactic probably used to drum up business for Smarthistory. This type of vandalism (or at least it can be seen as such) needs to stop. Whereas a small block of links in the External links section of an article, where I've place some of these templates, is eventually acceptable, the vast majority of smarthistory templates are still located scattered throughout the main body of text in many articles still. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 14:44, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
::Ah, I get that now. OK, thanks for the explanation.

[[User:Hafspajen|Hafspajen]] ([[User talk:Hafspajen|talk]]) 15:41, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
:::That's not the main problem. The main problem is the placement of large External media infoboxes in the main article or See also sections, rather than where it belongs, in the External link section; in addition to the problem of over-linking the name Smarthistory, and the abuse of references relating to Smarthistory.

== Wikipedia avoids unnecessary capitalization ==

Your reverts [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=638328439] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=638330520] contradict [[MOS:CAPS]]. Namely, [[MOS:DOCTCAPS]] and [[MOS:GENRECAPS]]. The general rule "consistently capitalized in sources" does not apply either, since dictionaries do not capitalize these terms (at most, they sometimes say: "often capitalized"), and there is no rational reason to do so. — [[User:Mikhail Ryazanov|Mikhail Ryazanov]] ([[User talk:Mikhail Ryazanov|talk]]) 01:28, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
: I know the general rules linked above and understand them perfectly well. Art movements, however, are somewhat of an exception. Most of the relevant literature (in art related books, museums and so on) capitalizes art movements. For this reason, Wikipedia users accustomed to writing and editing articles within the scope of WikiProject Visual arts tend to write art movements begin with a capital letters. Thanks for your understanding. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 18:21, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
:: Can you please explain why this exception is needed? And why, for example, you did not capitalize "pointillism"? — [[User:Mikhail Ryazanov|Mikhail Ryazanov]] ([[User talk:Mikhail Ryazanov|talk]]) 23:33, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
::: Sure [[User:Mikhail Ryazanov|Mikhail Ryazanov]]. Pointillism is a technique of painting used by the Neo-Impressionists.  Techniques of painting are not capitalized. The Divisionists, too, used a similar technique of patterns to form images, though with larger cube-like brushstrokes. That is not very clear in the article about [[pointillism]], but I will modify that text shortly. Finally, whether capitalization is needed or not for [[art movements]] I do not know. But in the art world that is the rule, rather than the exception. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 03:28, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

==Rollback==
I don't get your point on the incident page - I did not complain about the image, I complained about the behaviour. You cannot roll someone back for good faith edits even if you are "guarding" a page. Can you explain more on the page?

== Rollback granted ==

[[Image:Wikipedia Rollbacker.svg|right|130px]]
Hi Coldcreation.  After reviewing your request for rollback, I have <span class="plainlinks">[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3A{{urlencode:{{PAGENAME}}}} enabled]</span> rollback on your account.  Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
*Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing [[WP:TW|Twinkle]].
*Rollback should be used to revert ''clear'' cases of [[WP:VAND|''vandalism'']] ''only'', and not [[WP:AGF|good faith edits]].
*Rollback should never be used to [[WP:EDITWAR|edit war]].
*If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
*Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it.  Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see [[Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback]] (even though you're not an admin).  I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my [[User talk:MusikAnimal|talk page]] if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback.  Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism.

Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Georges Braque, 1922, Paris, photograph by Man Ray..jpg]]'''. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|fair use]]. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|first non-free content criterion]]. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have ''no free equivalent''; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

# Go to [[:File:Georges Braque, 1922, Paris, photograph by Man Ray..jpg|the file description page]] and add the text <code><nowiki>{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}</nowiki></code> '''below''' the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <code><your reason></code> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
# On [[File talk:Georges Braque, 1922, Paris, photograph by Man Ray..jpg|the file discussion page]], write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license]], or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

:: Ok, excellent. I just removed one row of black pixels from bottom and right of the that photo. These pixels were not needed in the image and in fact were a distraction. They were visible at ordinary scale as thin black lines. Now they are no longer. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 11:15, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
::: [[User:Hafspajen|Hafspajen]], I just checked the original source of the photo, the black pixels are not there, so it must have been an artifact that came with the capturing of the image. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 11:19, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
::::That was, of course, going to be part of the restoration. Let's leave the crop for now, but we'll want to revert it eventually, as the original image linked to should be the original, after all, not a modification. =) 

:::[Added after edit conflict] That said, I wish [[User:Hafspajen|Hafspajen]] wouldn't make everything justified solely by FPs; there's far better reasons than that for the change, and I think "I want an FP for the article" is, generally speaking, a weak argument if not backed by other reasons. The Legion of Honour photo, while good in the abstract, is a small half-toned rather faded copy. I think it's generally better to lead with your best image (it encourages clicking through, for instance, as if they see the first image is good, they're more likely to check the others. In this case, the best image is either the Klumpke painting, or the Disdéri photo; all other things being equal, I prefer the camera, as artistic portraits can be a little inaccurate. We also have a section on her gaining the Legion of Honour which I originally put said Legion of Honour photo as near as possible to. <span style="text-shadow:grey 0.118em 0.118em 0.118em; class=texhtml">'''[[User:Adam Cuerden|Adam Cuerden]]''' <sup>([[User talk:Adam Cuerden|talk]])</sup></span> 11:22, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

:::::It's because of a flaw in the JPEG codec. Progressive saving as JPEG degrades an image, so I'll be editing from the one nearest the original capture, repeating your crop.

::::I perfectly agree, Hafs. I'm just explaining JPEG's lossy nature to him, as the reasons for not keeping the crop are nothing to do with the merits of the crop - which is 100% justified - but because JPEG is lossy, and I need to have the exact file I worked from uploaded, which has to be the least edited copy to avoid JPEG's progressive degredation.

[[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]], I don't understand the reason for your revert of my edit at [[Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis]].

=== About that <!-- bullshit --> comment on images and galleries ===
Images in the gallery collectively do have encyclopedic value and add to the reader's understanding of the subject. 
Galleries are not discuraged. Please see also this discussion here, [[Talk:Charles Marion Russell]]. 
::Per [[WP:IG]]:

''Images are typically interspersed individually throughout an article near the relevant text (see WP:MOSIMAGES). However, the use of a gallery section may be appropriate in some Wikipedia articles if a collection of images can illustrate aspects of a subject that cannot be easily or adequately described by text or individual images. The images in the gallery collectively must have encyclopedic value and add to the reader's understanding of the subject.''

 

*Image use policy say: Sometimes a picture '''may benefit''' from a size '''other than the default'''; see the Manual of Style for guidance. 


*Manual of style: **''As a '''general rule''', images should not be set to a larger fixed size than the 220px default (users can adjust this in their preferences). ''''If an exception to the general rule is warranted'''', forcing an image size to be either larger or smaller than the 220px default is done by placing a parameter in the image coding''. 


*The exception from  the general rule is most '''art''' and '''art related articles''' that they do fall into this cathegory, and they are this  '''exception''' to the general rule . 


*See here '''art and art related''' articles, and '''architecture''' articles. These articles do use images  larger than thumb. [[Michelangelo]], [[Ancient Greek architecture]], [[Anglo-Saxon art]], [[La maja desnuda]],  [[Stained glass]], [[Sandro Botticelli]], [[Yixian glazed pottery luohans]], [[Wells Cathedral]], [[Romanticism]], [[History painting]], [[Romanesque architecture]], [[Ambrosius Benson]], [[Portrait of Francesco d'Este]], [[Andrea Mantegna]], [[Crucifix (Cimabue, Santa Croce)]], [[Danaë (Titian series)]], [[Cambrai Madonna]], [[The Werl Triptych]], [[Portrait of a Young Girl (Christus, Berlin)]],  [[Léal Souvenir]], [[Braque Triptych]], [[Death of the Virgin (van der Goes)]], [[Miraflores Altarpiece]], Madonna of the Dry Tree

*See here also '''featured articles''' - art and art related articles, and architecture articles do use images  larger than thumb; '''as exception''' to the general rule : [[Early Netherlandish painting]], [[Holy Thorn Reliquary]], [[The Magdalen Reading]], [[Royal Gold Cup]], [[Madonna in the Church]],  [[Stanford Memorial Church]],  [[Portrait Diptych of Dürer's Parents]],   [[The Entombment (Bouts)]],  [[Crucifixion and Last Judgement diptych]], [[Las Meninas]], [[Dresden Triptych]], [[The Garden of Earthly Delights]], [[The Magdalen Reading]] Funerary art

Also other articles may benefit by images. 
 

:If someone is not  familiar with image policy,  shouldn't edit art articles, and I am seriously considering having a conference with all our regular art editors about hyow to handle this disuption the above mentioned editor is causing on art articles.

== Thomas Cromwell ==

Hello, Coldcreation - I've been reading the article on [[Thomas Cromwell]] and have come across a curious sentence. It's in the paragraph in [[Thomas Cromwell#Hans Holbein portraits]]:

*In the New York Frick Collection, two portraits by Holbein hang facing each other on the same wall of the Living Hall, one depicting Thomas Cromwell, the other Thomas More, whose execution he had procured.

I'm trying to figure out how two portraits could face each other but be hung on the same wall. The only thing I can think of is that the wall is curved. Do you have any way of checking this? [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 04:22, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi CorinneSD, Looking in google images, it look like the two portraits are profiles (almost), so that the two subjects appear to look towards each other, even though on the same wall. In addition, it does look like the wall is slightly curved. :-) [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 05:15, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

:I found it! You're right! It said Henry Frick had a sense of humor in placing the two paintings like that. [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 23:41, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

== Théophile Gautier ==

Hello, Coldcreation - I thought French last names starting with "de" or "du" generally were not capitalized (the "de" or "du", I mean), or is that an individual choice? In the article on [[Théophile Gautier]] most names do not have the "de" or "du" capitalized, but in the fifth paragraph in [[Théophile Gautier#Life and times]] I found "Jehan Du Seigneur", and in the section [[Théophile Gautier#Influences]], I found "[[Maxime Du Camp]]", who has an article, and in that article the "Du" is capitalized. It just looks strange. [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 23:34, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
:Hi [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]], I was under the same impression as you. In the French wiki articles for both Jehan Du Seigneur and Maxime Du Camp, the Du is capitalized. I can only assume this is correct. At French wiki they are very strict about capitalization. Nothing is capitalized unless it needs to be. For example, a recent article I wrote, ''[[The Cubist Painters, Aesthetic Meditations]]'', was partially translated and posted at French wiki, titled ''Les Peintres cubistes. Méditations esthétiques'', even though the original publication uses Caps. Those are the ''règles de typographie'' they use. I'm still not sure why "Du" should be capitalized though. :-) [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 04:44, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

== Please consider entering the discussion. ==

Dear Coldcreation, for the WIKIPEDIA article on Abstract Expressionism to present a list of 100 artists as being: ''“'''Significant artists whose mature work defined American Abstract Expressionism'''”'' seems to be grossly overstated and very subjective, without presenting anything to validate the statement. Note that [[Albert Alcalay]], [[Charles Alston]], [[Alice Baber]], [[William Baziotes]], [[Norman Bluhm]], [[Louise Bourgeois]], [[Ernest Briggs]], [[James Brooks]], [[Fritz Bultman]], [[Jack Bush]], and [[Alexander Calder]] and many more on the list cannot be considered as Major Abstract Expressionist Artists whose mature work defined American Abstract Expressionism.  Calder belonged to the “Kinetic Art Movement” and the others played no significant role and were minor contributors to the Abstract Expressionist Movement.  Because only a small number of the 100 artists on the list actually defined AAE, I requested (on the Talk Page of the Article) that the introduction to the “List of abstract expressionists Major Artists” be changed to read: ''"'''Significant artists some of whose major work helped to define American Abstract Expressionism.'''”''  Please consider entering this discussion as I believe this needs to be corrected.  (I do thank you, for "correcting" me, and now I believe something else need to be corrected.)  [[User:Sirswindon|Sirswindon]] ([[User talk:Sirswindon|talk]]) 22:49, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

== Joseph Halévy ==

I was just skimming the article on [[Joseph Halévy]] when I saw "Ecoles des Hautes Etudes" at the end of the third paragraph. Don't "Ecole" and "Etudes" need accents over the initial "e"? [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 22:18, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
:Yes indeed CorinneSD. Good catch. I've already corrected it to [[École pratique des hautes études]]. This is the same school, according to the French article on Joseph Halévy. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 09:25, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
::I see that you've already corrected it. Does that mean that the French do not capitalize all the main words of the name of an institution, as we do in English? If so, that's surprising to me. [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 21:54, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
:::Exactly [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]]. And it's strange to me too. Our norms are different. We like Caps. That's why we insist on writing for example [[Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris]], even though the French write [[:fr:Musée d'art moderne de la ville de Paris|Musée d'art moderne de la ville de Paris]]. If it's in the middle of a sentence it would be musée d'art moderne de la ville de Paris, with a lowercase "m". [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 04:01, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
::::Wow. Interesting. Well, regarding the use of caps, English is about half-way between French and German, isn't it? Don't the Germans use ''more'' caps than we do? Regarding the French preference for lower-case, I wonder where that preference stems from. Could it be a reaction against official-looking and -sounding things after the French Revolution? Or could it be a holdover from Latin? Does Latin use upper and lower case, or does it have only one case? [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 17:30, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
::::: Not sure about German or Latin. Nor about the history of the French lexicon regarding upper- and lowercase. Also strange are the quote marks used in French, such as « these ». Or even spacing when writing divers punctuation, such as :  I tried looking into the history of these orthographic et typographic conventions, which differ in Canada by the way, and found little. I think these norms go back to the Middle Ages, and then the time of the first printing presses (with led letters and wooden case boxes), and now depend on the ''Référence Lexique des règles typographiques en usage à l'Imprimerie nationale''. To confuse further, there is also a difference between uppercase (majuscule) and capital letters in French. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 04:41, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
:::::::What? What's the difference between uppercase and capital letters (in French)? That's a new one to me. Did you know why letters are called upper case and lower case? You probably do. The upper case, or drawer, of the cabinet that held the lead letters for hand typesetting contained the capital letters and the lower case held the small letters. As I understand it, German nouns are normally capitalized. See [[German orthography#Spelling of nouns]]. [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 23:31, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
Yes [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]], [[:fr:Capitale et majuscule|Capitale et majuscule]] are not the same thing in French (nor in English by the way). Majuscules are bigger. For example: « LONGTEMPS MARCEL S’EST COUCHÉ DE BONNE HEURE » is written in capital letters, but the first "L" and the "M" of Marcel are in majuscule. Written with a computer they all look alike, however, this phrase should look like this: « {{Smallcaps|Longtemps Marcel s’est couché de bonne heure}} ». An example in English: I LIKE CorinneSD BECAUSE SHE IS VERY CURIOUS ABOUT THINGS, should appear as: {{Smallcaps|I like CorinneSD because she is very curious about things}}. :-) [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 04:46, 30 April 2015 
(UTC)
:Oh... Interesting. I always thought the French word "majuscule" ''meant'' "capital [letter]". It is a French word, and I haven't heard it used in English. How would you express it in English? Typographers probably have a word or phrase for it. If "majuscule" (in French) does not mean "capital letter" (to the French), do they have another word for "capital letter"? Maybe this style (the style of your examples) is more common in French. We don't see it very often in English. [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 14:12, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

== Académie de La Palette ==
Hello Coldcreation, I'm writing to you about your article on the Académie de La Palette.I have gathered from family sources that my grand-father Raymond Colin (1886-1929), who was a painter, was for a very short time director of La Palette, in the first half of 1914. This assumption is based on the fact that his address at that time was 18 rue du Val-de-Grâce, where the Académie de La Palette was located, and his occupation is stated in an official document as "directeur d'une académie de peinture". His wife also received in the spring of 1914 a postcard send to "Madame Colin, La Palette, rue du Val-de-Grâce, Paris". And although Raymond Colin never became famous, and never departed from figurative painting, he was well acquainted with Dunoyer de Segonzac and Mondrian, among others. Now my question is, have you by any chance ever come across Raymond Colin's name in any documents related to La Palette? Best regards. [[User:Acdtfr|Acdtfr]] ([[User talk:Acdtfr|talk]]) 15:37, 10 May 2015 (UTC)
:Hello [[User:Acdtfr|Acdtfr]], I've heard much more about [[Paul Colin (artist)|Paul Colin]] than Raymond Colin. Is there any relation? I'll have to do some research to see what I can find on Raymond Colin. Perhaps you could write a Wiki article on the topic of your grand-father. I for one would be very interested. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 04:52, 26 May 2015 (UTC)
::Hello [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]], Thank you for your answer. Raymond Colin has no connection whatsoever with Paul Colin. I'm actually trying to write some sort of biography on Raymond Colin, but it will take me months, if not years, to complete it. The same goes for a Wiki article. Briefly, Raymond Colin, who was born in Lavaur (Tarn), stayed in Holland during First Wolrd War. His wife was a Dutch pianist who performed first under the name of Mies Penning, then Marie Colin, playing solo or with the Trio Parisien. After the war, they moved into a studio in the Cité Nicolas Poussin, 242 boulevard Raspail, in Paris. Raymond died while staying in Barcelona and, after his death, Marie Colin organised some small scale art exhibitions in the studio. Afterwards, she broke up with the painting milieu, but remained a friend of Conrad Kickert until his death. A short article on Raymond Colin can be found in the Dutch newspaper Nieuwe Rotterdamsche Courant http://www.delpher.nl/nl/kranten/results?coll=ddd&query=%22Raymond+Colin%22&cql[]=%28date+_gte_+%2201-01-1923%22%29&cql[]=%28date+_lte_+%2231-12-1923%22%29.

== Blaise Pascal ==

I've been reading the article on [[Blaise Pascal]] and I've come across something I'd like to ask you about. It's in the last sentence in the section [[Blaise Pascal#The ''Provincial Letters'']]:

*The Provincial Letters also received praise. For example, Charles Perrault wrote of the Letters: "Everything is there—purity of language, nobility of thought, solidity in reasoning, finesse in raillery, and throughout an ''agrément'' not to be found anywhere else."

I wasn't sure of the meaning of ''agrément'', so I used the Google translation feature, and it gave just one word, "approval". But, to me, "approval" doesn't quite make sense in this sentence, and I was wondering if you could provide a better translation. [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 00:13, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

:Hi [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]], the word is related to ''pleasure'' or ''satisfaction'', but I would have to read the French sentence to be sure. Literally, it could mean congeniality, amenity, approval, acclaim, endorsement, approbation, authorization, pleasantness, congeniality, niceness, or amenity, depending on the context. (See [https://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/agr%C3%A9ment here]). In the past, I've found translations, even in books published by the most reputable historians, where the meaning of the sentence turned out to mean the exact opposite of what was meant in French. So I will try to find the original sentence and get back to you, to confirm either way. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 04:16, 14 June 2015 (UTC)
::Well, I found the original version of [http://gallica.bnf.fr/Search?adva=1&adv=1&tri=&t_relation=%22cb31084843m%22&lang=fr Volume 2, 3 and 4]. Vol 1, cited in the article, appears more difficult to find. So in the absence of the original text, I would say the word ''agrément'' in this case means ''pleasantness'' or ''geniality''. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 05:08, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

: Hi [[User:Lotje|Lotje]]. Images of works by Man Ray (photographs, paintings, assemblages, etc) are still under copyright protection, unless otherwise published prior to 1923. To the best of my knowledge, the photo of Braque was not published before 1923. Some of the photos of Duchamp by Man Ray were indeed. Unless explicitly stated, by cc 2.0 or 3.0 exceptions, such as the image of Erik Satie at Gallica, Bibliothèque nationale de France, listed as ''domaine public'', and perhaps the portrait of William Zorach from the Library of Congress ("No known restrictions on publication"), Man Ray's works should generally not be uploaded to Commons.

:::Thank you, that answers my question. imo, this is a perfect example of how these copyright laws in Europe screw up logical uploading. In fact, on the German wikipedia, there is even an [[:de:Wikipedia:Offener Brief an die Mitglieder des Europäischen Parlaments zur Erhaltung der Panoramafreiheit|open letter from Wikipedia to the members of the European Parliament to maintain the FOP]], which, somehow proves, the copyright issues should be seen within a global use and not being restricted as it is now.

== John Mandeville ==

Hello, Coldcreation - I'm reading the article on [[John Mandeville]], and I've come across what look like two French names: "Johains a le Barbe or Jehan a la Barbe" in the section [[John Mandeville#Contemporary corroboration]]. I wondered why there was no accent on the "a". Should there be? Or did they not use accents at that time? [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 22:40, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
: Yes [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]], another good catch. There should be an accent on the "a", à la barbe. And it's not le barbe, it's la barbe. Accents were used back then (though much was written in Latin). Even had they not, today it should be written correctly.

Bonjour Cold Creation, 
Although I usually agree with your editing interventions - you're sharp! - I do not agree here:(  
A title in original language used in a foreign text has to respect the spelling etc. of the original. Please give me the rule why ''Salon d'automne'' in French must be written ''Salon d'Automne'' in a text in English.

:To say thanks for all the edits, tunes and help; the page has come on a lot. Am I right, can you see, about the locations of the two other versions cast by Gaugain? Private collections as far as I can make out; and both changed hands recently. [[User:Ceoil|Ceoil]] ([[User talk:Ceoil|talk]]) 17:28, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
::Excellent question. I'm not sure where these casts are now. During public auctions they were not necessarily acquired by private collectors. Museums, galleries, public and private institutions, and so on, also bid on lots that may interest them. Sometimes the identity of buyers is disclosed (other times not). Until the current whereabouts of these cast are known, it would be imprudent to assume they were purchased by private collectors. But it's even more complicated than that. [https://www.artsy.net/artwork/paul-gauguin-oviri-sauvage-savage This cast of Oviri], for example, is documented as forming part of the Fondation Beyeler, Riehen (2015). But I found no record of it in the [http://www.fondationbeyeler.ch/en/Collection/Works collection of works at Fondation Beyeler]. That is not to say it's not there.

== Passenger pigeon ==

Hello, Coldcreation! Happy New Year! I have just started to read the article on the [[Passenger pigeon]], in response to a request for a copy-edit at [[WP:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Requests]], and I've come across something I've got to ask you about. At the very beginning of the article, it says that the name of the bird came from the French word ''passager'', which means "passing by". Is that correct? When I use the Google translate feature, it says it means "passenger". What is the correct etymology for "passenger" in the bird's name? [[User:Corinne|Corinne]] ([[User talk:Corinne|talk]]) 02:48, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

:Happy New Year to you too [[User:Corinne|Corinne]]. Your question is a good one and a difficult to answer. Both translations in French are correct. "Passing by" is applicable since, originally, the bird's passed by during their migration period. And ''passenger'', as in 'traveler', is also applicable and more closely related to the the French [[:fr:Tourte voyageuse|Tourte voyageuse]]. I would base myself on what the sources write (Fuller 2014 and [http://etymonline.com/?term=passenger Harper 2012]). Sorry I couldn't have been of more help.

:[[User:Gaw54|Gaw54]], I would just go ahead and publish the article. No need to wait for a review. I understand the article is a work in progress, but so too are millions of other article at Wikipedia. The article looks good. I've never gone through the review process before publishing article (nor even for my first articles). If you need help publishing it I can help out, or even do it for you. Let me know...

== Dada Max image  ==

Hi Coldcreation. I am trying to replace the Picabia image you uploaded to Dadaglobe page with the Dadamax image you uploaded for the Max Ernst page. While the Picabia work was not made explicitly for Dadaglobe (it was published earlier), Ernst's collaged self portrait commonly referred to as Dadamax was. I am having trouble figuring out how to link that image; your assistance would be much appreciated. Thanks.[[User:Gaw54|Gaw54]] ([[User talk:Gaw54|talk]]) 20:28, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

No, it is Ernst's self-portrait you uploaded for his Wiki page (also known as The Punching Ball). (It appears that you and I have many common interests: Dada, Man Ray, Ernst, Picabia, etc.)
: Yes indeed [[User:Gaw54|Gaw54]]. I added the Ernst image to the article. Would you like me to post the article? [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 23:35, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

--[[User:MainlyTwelve|MainlyTwelve]] ([[User talk:MainlyTwelve|talk]]) 19:14, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
: Good question [[User:MainlyTwelve|MainlyTwelve]]. The articles you link to refer to another work by Picasso of the same title sold at Christie's London in 1988 (where the acrobat and harlequin are sitting). [http://www.gettyimages.ae/detail/news-photo/the-painting-acrobate-et-jeune-arlequin-by-pablo-picasso-is-news-photo/575429373 See here]. As far as the provenance of the Barnes painting, it's a shame that information is not listed at their website. There may be more information online somewhere, not sure.

== Demonstrating greater effects would require greater distances from the Earth and/or a larger gravitational source. ==

See the edit in Talk:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_time_dilation

Greater distances (than for example the distance to a GPS satellite) do create a very marginal time dilatation compared to the time dilatation from earth to a GPS satellite.
The distance from the centre of mass is about 4 times.
The gravitation on the GPS is about 1/17.
The gravitational dilation by grafity is at the GPS hight is reduced to 1/17 of earth surface.
Going to infinity and beyond the gravitational dilation (of earth) would go to zero.
The gravitational effect from earth to GPS very little, infinity and beyond is 1/17th of that.
If the dilation is 17 Units at the earth surface.
It is about 1 Unit at the GPS level.
At infinity is wil be 0 Units.

I would think this does not demonstrate a greater effect.

==Europe 10,000 Challenge invite==
Hi. The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge]] has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland [[Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge]]. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like [[Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic)]]. For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon]], sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --[[User:Ser Amantio di Nicolao|<span style="font-family:Old English Text MT;">Ser Amantio di Nicolao</span>]]<sup>[[User_talk:Ser Amantio di Nicolao|''Che dicono a Signa?'']]</sup><sub>[[Special:Contributions/Ser Amantio di Nicolao|'''Lo dicono a Signa.''']]</sub> 02:51, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

==Abstract Art, definition==
Hi Coldcreation. Thanks for your message. I'm pleased to be able to talk about this edit,I'm just getting to know the system. My edit proposes that there is a concise definition of 'Abstract Painting'as art which does not refer to the visible world. This appears to be the historical and academically supported meaning.For example, Fauvism and cubism orphism rayism and much of futurism were representational in that they showed recognizable forms. The breakthrough to the abstract was fueled by a desire to create a new way of expressing abstract, spiritual, transcendental ideas.[[User:Paulaclarewilliams|Paulaclarewilliams]] ([[User talk:Paulaclarewilliams|talk]]) 22:50, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

== Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec ==

Hello, Coldcreation{{snd}}How are you? I hope you are well. Do you think '''{{diff|Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec|787864474|786881356|the link added here}}''' is appropriate for Wikipedia? &nbsp;&ndash;&nbsp;[[User:Corinne|Corinne]] ([[User talk:Corinne#top|talk]]) 04:30, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

:Hi [[User:Corinne|Corinne]]. All is well, and I hope for you too. Thanks for the link. I've never seen those photos before. I find them essentially quite humorous. I'll venture to guess that Maurice Guilbert (an amateur photographer) shot those images for fun. Toulouse seems to be enjoying himself. Also, adding to the humor; the name of the beach is ''plage de Crotoy''. ''Crotte'' in French means scat (poop, feces). Wikipedia occasionally contains content that some viewers find offensive or objectionable.‍ That is fine. I'm all for '''not''' censoring. However, per [[WP:SHIT]], these images "should '''not''' be included unless they are treated in an encyclopedic manner". Their omission, in this case, would not cause the article to be less informative, relevant, or accurate. Too, there is already an overabundance of External links in the article (not linked to Google images). They need to be trimmed. I would therefore remove that link, as well as several others.

== Mona Lisa edit by Genevieve81 ==

Dear Coldcreation,
I just saw that you undid my edit concerning the possible execution date of the Mona Lisa. It would seem that in the main article the date of execution is not agreed by all experts :  many explaining that it reflects Leonardo's late technique of after 1513. 
I wanted to add references there but did not know how to do this. Please do let me know if I did anything wrong as I am new to the Wiki world and very keen to learn.
I'm sure you will agree that we should get these important matters as fair reflections of all that we know today.

[[File:Information.svg|left|25px|alt=]]Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to [[:Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing]]. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at [[WP:Image resolution]], along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized).

==Edgar Degas==
I saw your reversion of my edits on this page.  I thought I had left the meaning intact by only deleting the words 'ironically' and 'obviously' and switching from the passive to the active voice, but apparently not.  However, those two words do not belong in an encyclopedia unless they're part of a quote or paraphrasing somebody's opinion with attribution.  Irony is often a matter of opinion (I don't think that Degas' use of colors was ironic in this situation), and obviously shouldn't be used because it's condescending and the situation is not likely to be obvious to 99% of Wikipedia's readers, who may not know what Impressionism is, or much about art at all, but are trying to learn. Can you please rewrite the sentence without the words 'ironically' and 'obviously' and keep the meaning intact.  Thanks.

==''Guernica''==
Hello, and thank you for re-adding the image of ''Guernica'' to the museum and Madrid pages, which have since been once-again reverted. What's the best way to go forward? The idea that the museum can be represented on Wikipedia without an image of its most honored and well-known artwork seems obvious, as does the images use representing Madrid when it discusses the cities artwork. ''Guernica'' is a world-icon, a triumph of spirit, and probably the best known work of art by Spain's best known artist. Leaving it off these pages, and letting a link do for encyclopedic coverage (which is easily missed) does disservice to readers who are planning their trips to Madrid and its national treasures.

:{{reply to|Randy Kryn}} I agree with you 100%, and will continue restoring the image of Guernica to the relevant articles. As long as it's file page has a Non-free media rationale for each page, in accord with [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline]] and it abides by [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]], its inclusion is perfectly acceptable: especially per '''[[WP:NFCI]]''' #'''7''' and #'''8'''.

==Fauvism==
I understand your revision, that [[Guan Zilan]] wasn't a European in the first decade of the 20th century. However she is supposed to have been the one to introduce Fauvism into China via Japan in the late 1920s, after the movement was out of style in Europe.[[User:Jacqke|Jacqke]] ([[User talk:Jacqke|talk]]) 06:40, 5 August 2018 (UTC)

:Dear [[User:Jacqke|Jacqke]], being non-European is irrelevant. The article is about a short-lived movement promulgated by a small group of artists at the outset of the 20th-century (between 1905–1908), principally, who exhibited at the 1905 [[Salon d'Automne]] (and the 1906 [[Salon des Indépendants]]).

== Bucharest Telephone Palace - a fine example of Art Deco architecture in Eastern Europe ==

I do not think that your reasoning that the [[Bucharest Telephone Palace]] is not a fine example of Art Deco in Europe is just. As it is a prime example of the style in the Southeastern and Eastern European landscape, having no true equivalent in the region in terms of height. Also besides the antennas on top it did not change its design over the years. Therefore, I think the pictured example should be allowed on the page for the sake of diversity, in order to show how this modernist style was used in architecture across all of Europe.

== Renoir cite at Impressionism page ==

Greetings [[User:Coldcreation]]. Thank you for finding a cite for that Renoir painting at the Impressionism page. Obviously that is why it was selected as the first Impressionist painting in the body of the article. 

You’ve been around a long time, so just a tip, that I’m sure you’ll recognize from being on both sides of:  when plausible content is added that requires a cite, avoid reverting it – which just tends to lead to hurt feelings and too often revert wars – just use the citation needed note.  In this case I’d already gone looking for one before going back to the article to discover you had already added one yourself. Very good, and an uncommon and happy surprise. 

I didn’t go to look before starting this whether you also added that citation at the page for that painting. I added the CN note there, but didn’t to the Impressionism article as I didn’t want to clutter up the caption.   Yours, [[User:Wikiuser100|Wikiuser100]] ([[User talk:Wikiuser100|talk]]) 14:43, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
: {{reply to|Wikiuser100}} Funny thing is, in all the time I've been editing here, I don't recall ever having added a citation needed, tag. I've always just added a reference where one might be needed. The "masterpiece" claim for ''Moulin de la Galette'' was easily found at Google Books, even going back through decades of publications. In the time it takes to add a CN tag (dated), a reference can be found—my recommendation. Cheers.

== Segonzac cite at Post-Impressionism page ==
Hi [[User:Coldcreation]], I am new to editing on Wikipedia and I noticed you reverted an addition I made to the Post-Impressionism Wikipedia page. You noted that I needed to cite a source. Can you explain to me how to do that? If I wanted to add a new name into the list of prominent Post-Impressionist artists, do I need to add a footnote next to it as a source? This does not parallel the existing names that are listed on the page (as they have no footnotes next to them). Thank you. [[User:Miketrentt|Miketrentt]] ([[User talk:Miketrentt|talk]]) 20:22, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
:{{reply to|Miketrentt}} welcome to Wikipedia. To add a source see [[Help:Referencing for beginners]] and [[Wikipedia:Citing sources]]. I have just added a source to that sentence in the [[Post-Impressionism]] article. You'll note that [[André Dunoyer de Segonzac]] is not mentioned in that source. That is because, while he may have painted initially in the Post-Impressionist style, he was not known for painting in that style, and was certainly not a leader of the movement. I would be interested to find out where you are getting your information from. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 20:55, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

== Ready mades ==

Greetings {{u|Coldcreation}} regarding [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=L.H.O.O.Q.&diff=next&oldid=870454086 your revert] of my edit on L.H.O.O.Q. I think you're well-aware that the many of the readymades were never placed "in an appropriate setting". I think Duchamp himself in his discussion with Cabanne was pretty clear about L.H.O.O.Q.: "I didn't show it anywhere". <ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.ca/books?id=yPDKXnzgGGcC|title=Dialogues With Marcel Duchamp|last=Cabanne|first=Pierre|date=2009-07-21|publisher=Da Capo Press|year=|isbn=9780786749713|location=|pages=62|language=en}}</ref> So showing it in the context of an art gallery or some other "appropriate place" has nothing to do with it. Frankly, I don't think that Kuenzli says any such a thing either. [[User:Vexations|Vexations]] ([[User talk:Vexations|talk]]) 00:24, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
:{{reply|Vexations}} On page 47 of Kuenzli's ''Dada and Surrealist Film'', after describing how various readymades are presented or displayed, the author writes: "This decontextualization of the object's functional place draws attention to the creation of its artistic meaning by the choice of the setting and positioning ascribed to the object." He goes on to explain the importance of naming the object (ascribing a title). So, at least three things were/are important: the choice of object, the title, and the context of how it was modified from its normal position and/or location (or choice of the setting). For example, by virtue of placing a urinal in an art exhibition, or art journal (such as LHOOQ, when Picabia published a version in 391, March 1920), or even just hanging on a wall (in a gallery or in his studio), the illusion of an artwork was/is created. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 05:17, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
:: I've read Kuenzli, and "The readymade involves taking mundane, often utilitarian objects not generally considered to be art and transforming them, by adding to them, changing them, or (as in the case of his most famous work Fountain) simply renaming and reorienting them and placing them in an appropriate setting" is not a very accurate summary. L.H.O.O.Q. was created either in October or December of 1919 (Duchamp gave two different dates). Publication did not happen until March 1920, and that was Picabia's version. It took another 10 years for the original to be exhibited in ''La peinture au défi'' at Galerie Goemans in March 1930. For L.H.O.O.Q., there was no "placing".

:::True, it is not very accurate. Feel free to refine or change the text. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 12:39, 25 November 2018 (UTC) 
::::Note though, the "placing" of ''L.H.O.O.Q.'' by Picabia, in an art publication, is equivalent to placing a readymade on the wall of a gallery, or pedestal of a salon exhibition. Context... [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 19:07, 27 November 2018 (UTC) 
::::: I suppose that if Duchamp was never able to come up with a satisfactory definition of what a readymade is, we won't be able either: "The curious thing about the Readymade is that I've never been able to arrive at a definition or explanation that fully satisfies me." I'd be tempted to go with the one from the Dictionnaire abrégé du Surréalisme, ("an ordinary object elevated to the dignity of a work of art by the mere choice of an artist) were it not that it is so completely unworkable. Almost none of the works that Duchamp referred to as readymades actually meet that definition, as Obalk [https://www.toutfait.com/issues/issue_2/Articles/obalk.html points out]. I rather suspect that Adina Kamien-Kazhdan, in Remaking the Readymade: Duchamp, Man Ray, and the Conundrum of the Replica has something to say we might use.

Hello Coldcreation. I think, it is not fair just to throw away my selected images, like you did in the painting-Gallery of Seurat, without any sort of discussion.<br>I selected carefully some of the early works of Seurat, because they show where the man comes from! He didn't discover Pointillism in the blink of his eye. He was growing to it and he was connected with many other artists around him. I think it is important in the selection of works of an artist to illustrate this, andf not only the highlights he or she made.<br>
I hope next time you will discuss with me these kind of matters first, before throwing the added images away without one word?[[User:FotoDutch|FotoDutch]] ([[User talk:FotoDutch|talk]]) 16:24, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

::{{reply to|FotoDutch}} If you read the edit summaries, you will see why the images were removed.

== uploading picture of artist which were published for auctions ==

Hallo ColdCreation,
I started a Gallery and like to upload and use some pictures of Gabriële Münter (1877 – 1962). There is not much on Commons. But I found some pictures of her work via artnet, which where published there as being pictures of (past) auctions - in a very low resolution. 
I read that it is allowed to upload pictures if: 'The work is known to be in the public domain for some other clear reason.' I think this is the case when it was published for auction where everybody is publicly able to make his offer for buying it. You agree? Then looking for auction-pictures of a certain artist is a good path to use when there is not much to fond on Commons. You agree with this?

::You are mixing two rules and that is not necessary, I think...<br>One '''exception''' says: 'The work is known to be in the public domain for some other clear reason. - So this is not connected with any year or date.<br>
And the very general rule says: 'Works of this artist '''first published before 1923''' can be uploaded to English Wikipedia'.
There is no need to mix two rules, I believe. But we can start a discussion..

[[File:Information.svg|left|25px|alt=]]Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to [[:Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing]]. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at [[WP:Image resolution]], along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized).

I suspect Dethomas exhibited just about everywhere Toulouse-Lautrec did (at least after 1893) - so there's a good chance he was involved. My initial focus was actually finding pre-1900 exhibition records for Dethomas. I know they're out there. I don't actually have access to the Barc catalogues aside from the newspaper reviews, but I feel that there would be a wealth of info in those also. Regarding the BnF suggestion, I've ploughed through it many times over the years and have just about taken it as far as my limited French will allow. One very exciting piece of information you've shared was the location of a pastel "Yvonne" on the Archives Nationales link - it was exhibited in the US in 1915 along with a sister-work.

{{Reply|Brawen}} Not easy to translate. Literally translated it come out strange. Here's what I gather overall: "The things I see by him always give me an intense desire to work. The things of this boy—who, if he has no talent, certainly has a little genius—always hit me hard. It's as if I was suddenly delivered the path, and stupefied with admiration.

::{{Reply|Brawen}} I think he was trying to say that Lautrec's work was so powerful that, even though inspiring, it froze him in his track, like a deer in headlights, blocked in front of his empty canvas, discouraged that never will he (or anyone else) rise to the same heights.

[[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] Absolutely brilliant, that sounds great. It's a nice little quote that really helps clarify their professional relationship, I think. 

Another couple of letters that would really help close out the section on Lautrec, relate to his death from the perspective of Dethomas and Bulteau - translating the humour and sadness conveyed in these letters is far beyond my skill-set, but clearly not yours. If it's not too much to ask, could you take a look over them? Once again, very thankful for any help you can provide:

1) Quand Maxime Dethomas apprend la mort de son ami, il écrit à Madame Bulteau, Vendredi 13 septembre 1901 : 
« Madame chérie, Le pauvre Lautrec est mort, il paraît qu'il n'a pas cessé de parler de moi dans son agonie. Comme c'est singulier ! Je ne croyais pas tenir une si grande place dans l'esprit et le cœur de ce pauvre être. Il a gardé sa connaissance très tard et affirmé que ce n'était pas rien de mourir, que c'était rudement dur. Il paraît aussi que se rendant compte de la grandeur de son nez par rapport à son visage réduit à rien, il aurait dit en le désignant : « Quand je serai mort il aura l'air d'un croûton planté dans un plat d'épinards. Vous le voyez, il est resté lui-même jusqu'au bout ! Encore un de parti ! Giraudat, Tinan, lui et les autres. Il me semble vraiment assister à une bataille et je suis (à) une aile où le plomb tape juste et dur. » 

2)La réponse de Madame Bulteau, du 16 septembre, résume fort bien le ton des rapports entre les deux amis et la raison de l'attachement profond du petit homme pour son « Gros n’arbre ». « Je comprends et je ressens avec vous la détresse que vous cause la mort de Lautrec. On aime toujours les gens plus qu'on ne croyait, il ne faut point espérer quand on a des sensibilités telles que la vôtre, que personne de ceux qu'on a frôlés un peu souvent puisse disparaître sans arracher quelque chose du cœur. Qu'il vous aimât, comme il pouvait aimer et de son mieux, c'est ce dont j'ai toujours eu l'impression très nette dans les paroles que l'on apprenait qu'il avait dites de vous, on apercevait sa « considération » pour la qualité de votre esprit et, sans doute aussi, cette douceur d'âme qui est en vous et qui savait lui dissimuler la pitié. » 

To give the first letter some important context, on June 15, 1901, Lautrec left Paris for the final time. He was a accompanied by a few friends to the Gare d'Orsay (one appears to have been Dethomas, judging by his letter). Before boarding the train Lautrec was quoted as saying, 'We can kiss, for you won't be seeing me again'- then as an afterthought when seeing his friends sad expressions, he continued: 'When I am dead, I'll have a nose like Cyrano!'- a reference to Cyrano de Bergerac, a character Lautrec felt great affinity for. Anyway, I only mention this as no other academic text (obscure as it is) mentions Dethomas' presence at the station that day, so this letter may or may not stand as proof of that, depending on an accurate translation. Regarding Bulteau's letter, the third-person perspective of their relationship is a great bookend, I feel.[[User:Brawen|Brawen]] ([[User talk:Brawen|talk]]) 13:25, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
::An additional note regarding the first letter I should have mentioned: the reference "not enough to die, that it was hard" may relate to one of Lautrec's final words: "Dying's damned hard". Also "Giraudat and Tinan" were both dear friends of Dethomas that died in the 1890's. Of note also - Bulteau really did not care for Lautrec, but I sense she valued Dethomas enough to respect their friendship.

== Art UK ==

Yes, I have been systematically adding links to the Art UK pages for artists.  This is a charity that has systematically catalogued and imaged every oil painting in public ownership in the UK -- the first time this has ever been done -- and now makes the results available on its website.

I believe this is overwhelmingly a useful link to give readers on our articles.  

We currently have 22,547 artists on Wikidata matched to Art UK pages, of whom 7701 currently have Wikipedia articles. ([[Wikipedia:GLAM/Your_paintings#Stats]])

We previously had about 1800 transclusions of the {{tl|Art UK bio}} template, added pretty haphazardly and inconsistently.  I believe it should be rolled out systematically -- something I have meant to do for a long time -- so in the last day or so I have started adding it in an organised way, starting with the painters with the largest numbers of works in UK collections and going down the list.

Hi Coldcreation. I noticed your participation on the Man Ray page. I have just submitted a new page on a woman who was a friend and very important collector of his work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Rosalind_Gersten_Jacobs  She passed away last week and I was hoping to get this page live asap. Unfortunately, it looks like a four-month wait. The response to my inquiry about expediting the review process on one of the help sites was that I just had to wait until an editor "happened to pick it up." Not very encouraging, to say the least. So I'm reaching out to see if you might be interested and willing to just "happen to pick it up." I thank you for consideration of this request. Happy New Year.[[User:Gaw54|Gaw54]] ([[User talk:Gaw54|talk]]) 06:49, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

==Question about a revert==
Hi, do you have a specific reason for reverting my edit over at [[Gravitational time dilation]] ?  The r in question does refer to the 'slow-ticking' observer, and if you're someone who just wants to do a quick calculation, that section is clarified by making it explicit (it's explicit in all other occurence of 'observer' in the section). [[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gravitational_time_dilation&oldid=prev&diff=940372500|The diff page is here.]] [[User:Ketarax|Ketarax]] ([[User talk:Ketarax|talk]]) 16:48, 15 February 2020 (UTC)
: {{reply|Ketarax}} There is no such thing as a "slow-ticking observer". What was your former Username here at Wikipedia? [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 18:17, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

:{{reply|Coldcreation}} There's a "slow-ticking observer" in the clarification for t0 in that same section.  There's a "fast-ticking observer" spelled out for tf.  This "fast-ticking observer" is at r=inf.  The r we're dealing with is for the "slow-ticking observer", ie. the one within the gravitational field; also, this r cannot < rs. If you want to talk about rigorous presentation of general relativity, fine, but given the purpose and present state of that page, my clarification is not making it any worse. I want you to explain to me why in your opinion it would be wrong to call the observer within the strong gravitational field "slow-ticking" in this case.

== Georges Barbier image? ==

Dear Coldcreation,
What's the reason for replacing the Mare image in the section on the Society of Decorative Artists with the fashion illustration by Barbier?  What's his connection with the Society?   Cordially,  [[User:SiefkinDR|SiefkinDR]] ([[User talk:SiefkinDR|talk]]) 16:56, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
:{{reply to|SiefkinDR}}, good question. I searched Commons for quite a while looking for an appropriate image. The Mare work was from 1920, though I like it very much. I was trying to find an image that corresponds more to the section subject and timeline (1901–1913). If you feel the Mare image (or other) fits in there better, please feel free to remove the Barbier image. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 17:25, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

== Salvador Dali ==

Hello Coldcreation

Thanks for reviewing the changes I made to this page. I propose to continue to work through the article adding sourced material that is relevant to Dali's work and career and deleting dubious and unsourced/poorly sourced material. If you could continue to review my changes, that would be great. As it is likely that we two will be the most active on this page for the next few weeks, is this the best forum to discuss changes? Or would you prefer to chat on the Dali talk page? PS: I am not very technically proficient as a wiki contributor yet so I might need your help on technical issues. Thanks.

== Image of Woman With Mustard Pot ==

I would like to use the file in a trivia game app. However, I would like to ask you for some clarification on copyright, if I may. Did you create the file from Walt Kuhn's scrapbook? If so, why is the "source" listed as the Kunstmuseum in The Hague?

== Art Deco portraits ==

Hello,

I noted that you have patrolled the Art Deco page, and from some of your comments, seemed to be knowledgeable about the form.  I need an opinion about a group of what I understand to be Art Deco portraits; before I upload them into the Commons, I want to be sure my understanding is correct. The works are from [[Edward Mason Eggleston]]; his works have fallen into public domain, as none had the copyrights renewed. He did many works that could be called pinups, and some that have been pointed out as Art Deco.  I think that most could fall under this category, but am not sure.  Wikimedia Commons has very little in the way of Art Deco paintings (that I have found), especially of people.  On Eggleston's page, the references in the lists have links to paintings. When you have time, could you browse a few and give me an opinion as to genre? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, [[User:Jacqke|Jacqke]] ([[User talk:Jacqke|talk]]) 17:51, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
:{{reply|Jacqke}} Good question. He certainly represented fashionable women in a few paintings that could be considered to be wearing Art Deco-like attire, and some of the poses resemble sculptures from the Art Deco period. But I have found no references that refer to the artists work as Art Deco. You would have to find reliable sources that mention such an affiliation. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 07:07, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
::I will start that search. My guess is that someone on  the internet applied the lable Art Deco to him over an advertisement illustration, such as "Valentine Girl".

Greetings! You greatly improved this article in 2012. I can't believe no one has added to it in 8 years.

== Oil-on-canvas ==

Hello, I am not aware of any rule barring repetition of this information in the infobox and the lede of an article on a painting (we certainly repeat things like birth and death dates in infoboxes and ledes all the time), but in this case I think it is particularly appropriate to mention in the lede, since one of the key arguments about the origin of the painting is that it is in fact on canvas, which was not Leonardo's preferred medium. I would prefer to include that right up front in the lede, on that basis. Cheers!

== [[Portrait of a Musician]] ==

Coldcreation, as a more experienced art contributor than I, I was wondering if you could take a look at [[Portrait of a Musician]]. I plan to hopefully slowly work through most, if not all of Leonardo's paintings (as now I finally have enough high quality sources to do them justice!) but I am concerned about the current layout of Portrait of a Musician. I want to nominate it for FA soon, where if passed it could hopefully serve as a template for the future Leonardo paintings I work on... what I mean by this is more often than not his works have extreme debate over dating, subject, material, history and attribution, which I'm sure you've come across, so having an article to come back to on how it can be effectively laid out would undoubtedly be crucial. Layout aside, any comments/edits at all would be helpful. Best - [[User:Aza24|Aza24]] ([[User talk:Aza24|talk]]) 05:33, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

:{{reply|Aza24}} Note that the Leonardo da Vinci article is a former featured article. Please check the nomination archive link on the Talk page. Also, Leonardo da Vinci is listed as one of the Art and architecture good articles under the good article criteria. I'm sure the article can still be improved, but not sure it needs a total overhaul. With respect to ''Portrait of a Musician'' I'll look at it when I have more time to do so. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 05:02, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

::Thanks for being willing to do so when you have time! On Leonardo's article: To be honest, it really does need an overhaul. Maybe not completely in terms of the biography section, but if it is to reach FA standard to the level of an article like [[van Gogh]] (which is my hope) I will have to change a lot. I have checked the talk page archive and the article's history, its an FA from before 2005 and a 2006 GA and that seems to speak for itself as it is missing some crucial academic literature and is over reliant on many outdated sources. Leonardo scholarship has changed immensely since the publication books it uses like: Chiesa 1976 – who is not even a notable art historian, Bortolon 1976 – which doesn't even use page numbers and neither does Arasse 1998 even though both have more than 20 references. Almost every source used in the painting section is from before the 1980s, including much Vasari, certainly not appropriate; issues with the biography like that Leonardo's life from 1478–1512 uses the same amount of space as his life from 1512–1519 (not to mention how short the bio as a whole is!)

Hi, yesterday I accepted the article [[Maddox Gallery]] submitted via AFC. As it was deleted once back in 2018, I had to scrutunise it well. The present sources have been published after the first AFD and are enough to pass NCORP according to my review. But the article is too short and needs expansion. A user like you who is specialised in art related articles shall be able to expand it.

== Simultaneity ==

Hello, Coldcreation. You recently reverted my edits to [[:Simultaneity]], which is a disambiguation page. Disambiguation pages use a particular style, described at [[MOS:DAB]]. This includes things like not ending a line with a full stop, and only including one navigable link per bullet item. In addition, the version you restored links to itself. That results in the word '''simultaneity''' appearing in bold face, and no link to any article.

You also restored a link to that page on several other articles. Links to disambiguation pages are almost always a mistake, as disambiguation pages are not articles. If you do not like the idea of having an article on the concept of simultaneity in cubism, perhaps those links could go to [[Cubism]], where the concept is mentioned, or to the dictionary definition at [[wikt:simultaneity]]. Happy editing, [[User:Cnilep|Cnilep]] ([[User talk:Cnilep|talk]]) 23:42, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
:I have removed the links pending the publishing of an article of the topic. I will write one shortly, at which time the link will be reinstated. Thanks for your concern, and for highlighting the notion that such an article is needed. [[User:Coldcreation|Coldcreation]] ([[User talk:Coldcreation#top|talk]]) 06:34, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

== Invitation to participate in a research ==

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this '''[https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/962595?lang=en anonymous survey]'''.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Research:Wikipedia Administrator Recruitment, Retention, and Attrition|Meta page]] and view its [[wmf:Special:MyLanguage/Legal:Administrator Experiences 2024 Survey Privacy Statement|privacy statement]] .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Research|WMF Research Team]]
