Koekkoek

Thanks to your edits at shibboleth, I went looking around, and found numerous painters named Koekkoek. Pretty sure that picture's caption now names the right one. Cheers, Just plain Bill (talk) 18:10, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

Thank you very much Just plain Bill! I saw the discrepancy but didn't have time to fix it. Really important to credit artists but also in this case just to note it is a painting. Hesperian Nguyen (talk) 23:49, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

Archive header

I moved the archive so it has a capital "A". It left a redirect, which is probably harmless; if it bothers you, requesting speedy deletion will prompt an admin to take care of it. Sorry for all the backing and forthing; hope it wasn't too intrusive of me. Be well! Just plain Bill (talk) 14:15, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

Nope, no prob. Couldn't figure it out myself. Hesperian Nguyen (talk) 22:04, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

Ryder Ripps

Hi— you removed a lot of content from Ryder Ripps’ page, citing “puffery”. Everything was true, factual and cited.

Can you please further explain why it’s puffery before I reinstate the initial entry? Exaltedmoon (talk) 15:02, 23 November 2020 (UTC)

Exaltedmoon Thanks for taking to talk. I am going to ask you first off if there is a WP:COI based on your limited activity exclusive to Ryder Ripps. Also, re-reverting edits or threatening to do so is very unproductive, and fairly out of line as well, let's avoid an edit war.

I re-removed content from the page that you had restored from some time ago. The material removed is of trivial significance with non-mainstream sources WP:RELIABILITY and generally not encyclopedic or notable. It is clear Ripps is notable, but it is not important that every activity of this person be included, it is not the place for a CV like listing. I hope that is clear.

You know what would be really useful for Ryder Ripps? If someone could use Wikimedia Commons to upload (legally) photos of his work. Big advocate of this for visual artists/information. Hesperian Nguyen (talk) 17:02, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi— Thank you for responding. I’m happily asking about your edits and am not trying to incite. I don’t understand why you are now threatening me with an edit war.

Re WP:COI, there is no conflict as I am not paid nor do I know Ryder personally in any capacity. Although this is the only entry I’ve currently contributed, it does not automatically revert to a conflict.

I’m unsure what you mean by non-mainstream sources. Unless it’s Ryder’s personal work, all sources are from legitimate news agencies and sources.

I’m also not understanding how you have taken on the authority to determine what is trivial to this persons career and what is not. The career is a culmination of all efforts and not just those that you as a sole entity deem fit.

Thank you for the tip regarding images.

Thank you for reverting some of the text. As far as reliability and conflict of interest, I see you as being both an unreliable source of edits and a conflict of interest since you clearly have some personal vendetta and have a low contribution count on Wikipedia that seems to target select (possibly paid) edits.
