Hi Wikipedia, this is a good article, but could you also do articles on the actual projects, at least the Smithfield Art Tunnel? And the little Granby Park off Dominick Street. Those two were a step in a new direction. And should there not be an article on community garden projects in Dublin, such as Mucky Lane, the several projects on the Grand Canal, as well as Finglas and more? Maybe one on Dublin allotments too? Thank you, [[Special:Contributions/82.198.140.206|82.198.140.206]] ([[User talk:82.198.140.206|talk]]) 10:51, 1 November 2023 (UTC) |

This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons (BLP) policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.If you are a subject of this article, or acting on behalf of one, and you need help, please see this help page. |

Referencing - book chapters
The subject appears to have two book chapters - one dedicated to herself (chap. 9 of the book Blumenfrauen) and one on perhaps her most prominent arts-and-garden/-park project (Arts in Place) and I will use these more fully when I secure full texts (I have access only to snippets and samples to date). SeoR (talk) 12:01, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
- The text from the book Blumenfrauen is available to read on the subject's practice's website, so no need for help on this; Arts in Place appears to be held in only one general library in Ireland, so I may eventually get to it there. Any help on the points below still very welcome. SeoR (talk) 21:10, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
Other improvements
This new article would benefit especially from cited additions including:
- a quality personal picture, and 1-2 suitable photos of productions - update: I have taken a few shots of two former sites, and the Drumcondra one has imagery on Commons already,
- a little more early, and later personal, life data, incl. well-cited confirmation of birth year,
- more on academic work, notably any formal papers,
- something on work on play facilities - there seem to be several works but citations lack,
- more on the apparent involvement in horse / pony breeding / showing, etc.
- clarification on a few possible items thrown up by Google and other searches - membership of the landscape architecture organisation (definitely the case over years, but not found now), tenure on Dublin City Arts Office panel of artists (2011?, 2011-2015?), an international garden design competition in Vienna.
I will look into the subject's official website as a start myself, but any further inputs welcome... SeoR (talk) 20:52, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
- Updated above, further help always welcome. SeoR (talk) 21:14, 22 October 2023 (UTC)

- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Genoa Conservatory
- Comment: I think there is a nice secondary meaning potential in the hooks; I would hope to secure pictures of some of the subject's projects, and am seeking images of the subject. DYK QPQ done.
Created by SeoR (talk). Self-nominated at 01:03, 27 October 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Sophie von Maltzan; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
New article and plenty long enough. No issues with sourcing, neutrality, copyvio, etc. No images. QPQ is done. My one issue is with the hooks - they're wordy and not terribly exciting (and the dismantling part of ALT0 is not discussed in the article.) Perhaps something like
that Sophie von Maltzan led the making of a submarine which was walked through the streets of Dublin?
That cuts it down to the actually intriguing part. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 07:08, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
- Many thanks, and also for the hint on where to source an image in Flickr, and I will check that source and Commons one more time, as an article on such a person would be better with imagery - there is material on one pocket park, and there should be something out there on the Art Tunnel, which was pretty prominent for a while (but early in the digital mass era). I have also asked a new editor who may have some knowledge of or connection to the subject if they could help with photos. On the dismantling, I will address this, as the sources do cover it, but anyway, I am happy to offer an alt on the lines suggested, as indeed, the key is the intriguing idea of someone making tunnels and submarines in the heart of a modern city. I now have some images and will add them during Saturday; there is also a photo of the submarine sculpture on Commons but I don't think it's good enough for DYK, and I'm not even sure if it suits the article. SeoR (talk) 02:50, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Pi.1415926535, and sorry, a busy few days, but I have made some updates to the article, pulled in some pictures, including from your tip, brought the Tunnel's dismantling into body text, and offer alt hooks (as Alt0a and Alt1b) along the suggested short-and-focused lines. I hope this helps. Thanks, SeoR (talk) 16:29, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
Good to go with ALT1b. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 20:11, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

@SeoR and Pi.1415926535: unfortunately, I do gotta be a hardass about this one – taking the hook from a YouTube video with a couple of views and not having an independent RS to back it up seems like it'd fall afoul of WP:ABOUTSELF. Is there another source that could be found? theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 23:34, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, theleekycauldron, I believe so, yes. The video was not the original main source for that point. I will address this today. Thanks, SeoR (talk) 08:05, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
- And hi again, theleekycauldron and apologies, Pi.1415926535, the best of the three cites used on this nomination 1for Alts1, 1a, 1b is now attached to the direct base hook sentence, the video is stepped back, and I will check for any further sources to help. SeoR (talk) 14:34, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
- @SeoR:
this source also appears to be non-independent, although it is institutional, so I'm more willing to let it slide. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 02:36, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Other articles
Hi Wikipedia, this is a good article, but could you also do articles on the actual projects, at least the Smithfield Art Tunnel? And the little Granby Park off Dominick Street. Those two were a step in a new direction. And should there not be an article on community garden projects in Dublin, such as Mucky Lane, the several projects on the Grand Canal, as well as Finglas and more? Maybe one on Dublin allotments too? Thank you, 82.198.140.206 (talk) 10:51, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
