::This is a superb article, and those responsible for it deserve some commendation. However -- and it is a big, big, however -- I don't see why this material is under the heading "Hugh Hamersley." This immediately and incorrectly prejudices the entire discussion by implying, wholly without justification, that the Ashbourne portrait is really a portrait of Hammersley. I doubt that any serious reader of the literature in question could conclude that it is. The contents of this article really belongs under an entry for "Ashbourne portrait." If someone wants to do an entry about Hamersley, it should be about him. That might *include* the Ashbourne as a painting that has been said to be him (but more accurately should reproduce the full length painting which is *known* to be him, after the Pressley article). What about it?--[[User:BenJonson|BenJonson]] ([[User talk:BenJonson|talk]]) 15:35, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Shakespeare Matters as RS

Paul, you are mistaken about the Shakespeare Fellowship journal, and the associated website. Or perhaps you are just misinformed. To enlighten you, the journal and website are edited by Roger Stritmatter, PhD, and the publication includes on its editorial staff four PhD's in literary studies -- Dr. Daniel Wright of Concordia University (English), Dr. Felicia Londré of the University of Missouri at Kansas City (Theatre History), Dr. Anne Pluto (English) of Leslie College and Dr. Roger Stritmatter, Instructor of English at Coppin State College in Baltimore, MD. As such, the journal and its website are indeed RS. If you want to fight that, then feel free to take it to another level of Wiki administration. But with their credentials, I don't think you will be successful. On a private note, I would think that the article, even though it appears in an Oxfordian journal, would be of interest to you. The research is sound, the references outstanding, and the conclusions are reasonable. And my edits do not conclude that De Vere is the sitter, but that the Hamersley identification is probably wrong.

This is a superb article, and those responsible for it deserve some commendation. However -- and it is a big, big, however -- I don't see why this material is under the heading "Hugh Hamersley." This immediately and incorrectly prejudices the entire discussion by implying, wholly without justification, that the Ashbourne portrait is really a portrait of Hammersley. I doubt that any serious reader of the literature in question could conclude that it is. The contents of this article really belongs under an entry for "Ashbourne portrait." If someone wants to do an entry about Hamersley, it should be about him. That might *include* the Ashbourne as a painting that has been said to be him (but more accurately should reproduce the full length painting which is *known* to be him, after the Pressley article).
