Forgot to sign in

[edit]

Recent copy edit was by me, forgetting to sign in. Work yet to be done on 'Monet background', for I don't believe choice of subject was unimportant. Quite the contrary, writers have noted the nationalistic choices of subjects, upon which Monet focused his studies of light. JNW 20:23, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Subject

[edit]

According to his friend Gustave Geffroy and subsequent writers, the Impressionists gave great and profound thought to their choice of subject matter, and continue to be misperceived as possessing a camera-like objectivity. So, I have deleted the passage on this issue, which I don't think is a true description. Similarly, there is conflicting opinion as to the process of the serial paintings, with much of the confusion caused by Monet's conflicting descriptions of his working methods. What is known is that he often finished his paintings not on site, but in the studio. JNW 22:08, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted image

[edit]

Last deleted image was of a painting not actually by Monet, nor does the website it came from claim it as an original; it plainly states that its images are other painters' copies of the masters' works. More evidence that we editors must beware when we go to external links, esp. spam. JNW 22:29, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Failed GA

[edit]

This article lacks a proper lead (summarizing the contents of the article), has a cleanup tag, and lacks citations in the "Thematic Issues" section. As such, it has not reached GA status. Please feel free to resubmit when these issues have been dealt with. MLilburne 19:52, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Failed GA2

[edit]

This article fails the GA because of criteria 2, referencing. I have problems with the Thematic Issues section, which has a number of unreferenced statement (even an unreferenced quote). I think it's broad in its coverage and understandable, but it needs better referencing. DoomsDay349 23:35, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is not unreferenced quote in the themateic section and it has six citations for 14 lines of text. I will query your talk page for the unreferenced quote in the Thematic Issues section. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 00:24, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
In response both here and to your comment at my talk page, the following statements are the ones I feel need sourcing.

"Further complicating matters, the light of subsequent sunrises, for example, could alter substantially, and would require separate canvases within the series. Subsequently, different hues are evident in each painting, and in each work color is used to describe not only direct but reflected light. At differing times of day and in various seasons haystacks absorb the light from diverse parts of the color spectrum. As a result, the residual light that is reflected off of the haystacks is seen as ever-changing, and manifests in distinctive coloring.

Many notable painters have been influenced by this particular series including Fauves, Derain and Vlaminck. Kandinsky's memoirs refer to the series: “What suddenly became clear to me was the unsuspected power of the palette, which I had not understood before and which surpassed my wildest dreams".

The entire first paragraph could do with an inline or two, and definitely the quote needs sourcing.

Furthermore:

"The series demonstrates his intense study of light and atmospheric conditions; Monet destroyed more than one series of paintings that he found wanting."

Also needs sourcing.

Hope that helps, and I'll respond to any further inquiries! DoomsDay349 00:38, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see the quote now. Are you saying it only failed for lack of these citations or should I be looking for other improvements. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 00:40, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The rest of the article is pretty good, and frankly I think once you can scrounge up sources for those statements you could put this back up for review. I'd be happy to take a look at it then, just drop me a note or maybe I'll see it at the candidates page. DoomsDay349 00:42, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have added sources for much of the above, but have not yet found one for destruction of series paintings. JNW 04:53, 30 May 2007 (UTC)....Got it! JNW 05:01, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

08:20, 18 August 2017 (UTC)Tolesi (talk)==The nature of a Haystack== "whose primary subjects are stacks of grain. The title refers primarily to a twenty-five canvas series (Wildenstein Index Number 1266-1290) begun in the summer of 1890, using that year's grain harvest. "

Above is a quotation from the intro to this article. The problem is that a haystack isn't grain. Turning one's grain harvest into a haystack would be a most terrible waste.

A haystack is made of some type of grass grown especially as winter feed for livestock. It does have seeds in it, but not grain.

Grain is wheat, oats, barley etc and it is stripped or threshed off it's stalks. Traditionally it was cut, bound into bundles and stooked (stood on end until the cart came through the field to transport it). If harvested by machine, the grain is threshed automatically and poured into sacks, leaving the stalks or straw behind.

The straw that's left over from the grain is not very nutritious as winter stockfood, but is used for animal bedding and roof thatching and as a food supplement. A mixed farm that had a number of animals would probably have stacks of hay (grass fodder) as well as stacks of straw. --Amandajm 14:56, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe you, and am acquiring some education in the process. Many of the paintings are already titled 'grainstacks' or 'wheatstacks', so the terminologies have gained common currency. Alas, I fear I will have to do more reading. JNW 18:38, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's probably all in the translation! --Amandajm 03:57, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
These are the same two haystacks, seen from slightly diffeent angles in diff. pics. but with the same landscape behind them etc. That's the point of the exercise. So they should all be labelled consistently. I have just found the Edinburgh pic and the Louvre pic side by side, both labelled "Haystacks".
Just did a bit more of a check. Can't find any reason why they should be referred to as Grainstacks. The French is clear: wheat is "blé" or "grain" or "froment". Corn (maize) is "cor". Hay is "foin". Haystack is "meule de foin". Straw is "paille". A strawstack is "meule de paille" which also means "millstone". The word seems to be in current use for the big round bales that are left by the modern harvesting process.
OK! Here it is- Google search renders ummpteen images of "grainstacks". Almost every single image is of a Monet painting. The name seems to be the current one in the US relating specifically to those paintings and only to those paintings. All the paintings are there, labelled "grainstack"!
How very very odd! I didn't turn up a million references to grainstacks in US farming so I presume that in the US a haystack is a haystack is a haystack. Why is the term "grainstack" being used for these images? Is there something that I am missing? The Concise Oxford Dictionary doesn't know about "grainstacks".

..... but the C.O. D [& Websters] both correctly say that a haystack is a stack of hay - and not of wheat: these Monet's are wheatstacks [for bread] and NOT haystacks [for animal fodder].Tolesi (talk) 08:46, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done all sorts of variations on the search, combining the word grainstack with US, farm, farming, etc etc. I find lots of American references to Haystacks and none to grainstacks, with one exception- the so-called "grainstack mite" is the Tyrophagus longior. Apart from that, it is ALL about Monet!!?
Alright, the bottom line is that it's a misnomer that has somehow proliferated until art galleries and dealers (who have obviously never rolled in the hay on a starry night) are using it all over the web and probably elsewhere too. Aaaaaaaaargh!
(Yeah, you guessed it! Gramfer had a hay and corn store....)--Amandajm 05:03, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have checked through several books on Monet and impressionism, and all seem to confirm that these really were grainstacks. There was not enough room to store the grain indoors through the winter. The stacks were very large (something like 15-20 feet high), and were made following carefully prescribed directions, with heavy-duty thatching of hay to repel moisture and rodents. Altogether structurally sound, as they had to be, representing the farmers' investments. JNW 19:55, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The issue wasn't not enough room but that the wheat-grains had to be dried for some months before being threshed. These 'wheat stacks' were, therefore, driers. They were [almost] never thatched with hay but with wheat-straw, a much better thatching-material than soggy hay. Tolesi (talk) 08:46, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

... and see http://thatchinginfo.com/thatching-ricks-stacks-in-britain/ - in Britain but the same in Northern France 81.154.161.233 (talk) 18:32, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for checking it out JNW. Oh, dear, the risk of leaving the grain out like that. We have been having torrential rain and howling wind. I hate to think of the consequences...--Amandajm 10:19, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thus is the origin of oatmeal? JNW 21:08, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oats were an alternative grain-crop to wheat or barley but you can't make leavened bread from oats - yeast doesn't work with oats. Oats were used to make oatcakes and other unleavened 'breads' and [famously in Scotland] porridge. Tolesi (talk) 08:46, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

To clarify these ’Haystack’ confusions, French Wikipedia's version of this article, 'Les Meules' ['The Stacks'], is completely clear and accurate - as opposed to the mistranslations, confusions [and confused edits] in the English version here. Monet's stacks in his 'Les Meules' series aren't of hay [an animal food] but of wheat [for bread, the French staple] and aren't ever called 'Haystacks' in French, just ’Stacks’. To add to the English-translation confusions, Monet DID also paint the local 'Haystacks' that he specifically titled 'Meules de Foin' - 'foin' being hay [and often called hay-ricks in British English - try hayricks in Google images to see the difference]. These were much smaller and simpler piles of hay [for cattle, sheep and goats in winter], not in any way composed of wheat-sheafs [for bread]. For his stacks of hay ['Meules de Foin'] paintings see, for instance, Monet's W900/1/2, W993/4/5, W1073/W1074, W1245/6/7/8, W1362/4. Tolesi (talk) 08:20, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

GA nomination

[edit]

Hi, I failed this GA nomination mainly on the grounds of grammar and slight under-citation. The whole article's grammar needs tightening up - there are some abiguous sentences and some clumsy wording, some of which I have pointed out below. I also feel several statements really need citation, again this is pointed out below:

  • "Haystacks is the title of a series of impressionist paintings by Claude Monet whose primary subjects are stacks of grain" - Monet's primary subjetcs are stacks of grain or the haystack series primary subjects are stacks of grain. Unclear, bad grammar.  Done TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 18:38, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Assumed American audience, "Six of the twenty-five pieces are currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago. The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, MA holds two, and The Louvre in Paris, France one." explains that Paris is in France, but not where "MA" or "Chicago" are.  Done TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 18:38, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Some include several additional paintings in reference to this series" - clumsy sentence to open a para with - some what? Perhaps reiterate that there are traditionally considered to be 25 in the series and then avoid weasel words of "some people" replacing with cited examples of who says this.
  • You introduce the above exceptional position in the paragraph before the general consensus - this seems back to front  Done--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 19:03, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Fifteen of these were exhibited by Durand-Ruel in May 1891, and every painting sold within days" - was this unusual for his paintings? Difficult to grasp the significance of this sentence without knowing what was expected of them before the exhibition. I have no idea how wel known Monet was at this point and whether or not one would expect his paintings to have sold immediately or hardly at all.
    Resolved
     – rearranged to make more clear in regards to this complaint.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 19:28, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Many notable painters have been influenced by this particular series including Fauves, Derain and Vlaminck" I would think that this would need to be cited (and be easy to find a cite for) Done--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 19:08, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The series demonstrates his intense study of light and atmospheric conditions; Monet destroyed more than one series of paintings that he found wanting" I don't undestand this setence - are you saying that he didn't destroy the Haystack series as he had done with other series because he didn't find the Haystack series wanting, or that he destroyed some sub-series of the Haystack series because he did find it wanting? Done--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 19:21, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Monet background" - It is confusing that this comes so late in the article - as someone unfamiliar with the painting series surely the first thing I need is a brief intro to the man who painted the series? Done--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 19:01, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Should the monet background section not contain a "main article" link to the main article on Monet?  Done--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 19:01, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • The range of sources seems a little narrow (almost all from Tucker)

Good article nomination on hold

[edit]

This article's Good Article promotion has been put on hold. During review, some issues were discovered that can be resolved without a major re-write. This is how the article, as of October 7, 2007, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: The article is reasonably well-written prosaically speaking, and complies mostly with the Manual of Style. However there are some structural issues. Some very small sections, combined with large galleries, makes the amount of text seem very thin. Consolidating some of these sections, and removing some of the images, is necessary. Remember that Wikipedia is not an image gallery, and that showing every single haystack image available is not really necessary, especially if some may have no accompanying textual analysis or history. Removing some images may not be necessary if the desired expansion as intimated below is done. The order of the sections is also a bit odd, and the personal background of Monet and the background of the series should not be separated. The paintings galleries also need to be placed in correct chronological order (see further detail later in review).
2. Factually accurate?: I'm not sure what previous reviewers told you, but the bare minimum of inline citations is for quotations and one at the end of each paragraph, not each section. However, though not all sections have cites at the literal end of the paragraph, they do have enough in the body to cover all the facts. Still, the 1888-1889 paintings section is completely uncited. This must be remedied.
3. Broad in coverage?: This is related to odd feel of the article's layout. The article contains no information on how or if the series' style and content changed over the years. It contains text about the 1888-1889 paintings, but simply has a gallery for the 1890-1891 series and Other paintings. Strangely, many of the other paintings in the last gallery were painted before the 88-89 paintings. To put it simply, for a series of paintings spanning practically a whole decade there must be some kind of proper chronology in both the layout and the encyclopedic text. Otherwise, there isn't enough context and the article is extremely confusing.
4. Neutral point of view?: Covers all significant views with fair treatment.
5. Article stability? Not the subject of any recent or on-going edit wars.
6. Images?: All accounted for with proper licenses.

Please address these matters soon and then leave a note here showing how they have been resolved. After 48 hours the article should be reviewed again. If these issues are not addressed within 7 days, the article may be failed without further notice. Thank you for your work so far. — VanTucky Talk 22:08, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(copied from User talk:VanTucky) I am having a problem with your review. The third sentence of the article says. "The title refers primarily to a twenty-five canvas series (Wildenstein Index Number 1266-1290) begun in the summer of 1890, using that year's grain harvest.". Then, in section three of your review you say ". . . for a series of paintings spanning practically a whole decade. . ." Then, I see you asking me to remove many images and have even removed one yourself that I believe are important. I think the article would optimally have about 35 images in the gallery including all 25 1890 harvest images and all 5 1888 harvest images. Note the WP:LEAD says "The series is known for its thematic use of repetition to show differences in perception of light across various times of day, seasons, and types of weather." Remvoing images makes the juxtapposition unclear. For example, the image you removed is quite important in contrast to the adjacent image. I think you are missing several point. I have never done this, but do you think I could request another reviewer?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 15:20, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'll try and go through it all one at a time, let me know if I miss something. First, the chronology thing is me getting my wires crossed, as I did two reviews in very close succession. Please forgive any confusion. As to the removal of the image, I removed the image that was used as the lead. Using one image twice in an article with so many already is foolhardy. Second, I did not hard and fast say that the images must be culled to promote to GA status. Images alone are not a primary pass/fail criteria. But the article is very heavy on images and relatively light on text, it's about images and text. It's not about comparing the actual number of haystack paintings to what is included in the article. I'm speaking solely of the content of the article. There are articles that are three or four times as long about one painting, so surely there is more to say about an entire series by Monet. As to the context and thematic issue, the only substantial comment on this topic is the phrase, "to show nuances of perception as seasons, time of day, and weather changed." This generalization is repeated multiple times in the article, without further detail. This repetition is the symptom of the lack of comprehensiveness I touch on in the review. No, you cannot request another reviewer. You can make a talk page notice on WP:GAN if you like, or file a reassessment once the review has been concluded. But the writers of articles don't get to choose a new reviewer because they didn't like what one reviewer had to say. Second opinion is a tool for reviewers to request assistance. I'm more than happy to try and reach a consensus here together. GA review is not ideally a dictatorial endeavor, and I don't want it to be. But I have reviewed dozens of articles for the criteria without a single reassessment, so I'm not completely unschooled when it comes to knowing what is and is not GA status. VanTucky Talk 21:35, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Per your concerns, I have requested the help of reviewer LaraLove (much more experienced than I). She has done some copy editing and other work, including bringing up some additional issues. The below is space to list these. VanTucky Talk 22:34, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for both calling in a second reviewer and for reconsidering the article. I should say that your statement that "writers of articles don't get to choose a new reviewer because they didn't like what one reviewer had to say" connotes a misunderstanding of my concern. There were two main issues that indicated to me my article had not been reviewed as scrupulously as I would like. Your reference to a decade when the series is about one harvest season was alarming. I don't even know how to tell you how troulbing it is that you seemed to be reviewing something I did not write. Second, I was concerned because I am not a student of art, but am a fan of the Art Institute of Chicago, which boasts six of these paintings. Thus, I have been taught that the instructive and educational value of the series or a major part of it is to compare and contrast the thematic element which is nuances in seasons, time of day, and weather captured by differences in percieved light as depicted on the canvas. I am not sure whether the encyclopedic value to the project is the same thing as the instructive and educational value, but I assume these can not be too far apart. Thus, I think for a painting series greater representation of the series is beneficial in the article. I have never considered whether an image should be able to appear in an article in more than one place, but if it can this is the type of article where it should. Let's work together over the full seven days to improve this together. My request for a second reviewer was in no way a contest of who is the BSD between me with my dozens of successful nominations and you with your dozens of reviews. It was a statement of extreme concern that the person who was reviewing my article was missing two major points that were so important as to be alarming. I apologize if my procedurally incorrect request for a second reviewer was perceived badly.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 15:32, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, well I apologize if you felt like your work wasn't being treated with the care it should be. Looks like we have a fresh opportunity to get to work on the article. VanTucky Talk 17:52, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Additional issues

[edit]

Several times the article makes reference to Daniel Wildenstein's index. This needs to either be internally disambiguated or referenced in some way, as it is not a good idea to assume that any reader will have a clue what this is about. She also fact tagged a sentence, which without an RS, reads like OR. The first section, Monet background, has no transition and is jarring. Merging the general background section and the Monet one might help. The sentence, "However, some include several additional paintings in when referencing this series." is very confused in grammar. I take this to mean that there are multiple lists of the particular paintings in the series which don't always agree. The article says that he was paid 1,000 francs for a painting. We need some kind of reference to modern currency here (i.e. translated to current value w/inflation), bc 1,000 of anything is a pile of beans for art. VanTucky Talk 22:34, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for posting this summary, VanTucky. So I went through the article, as VT noted, and I must say I agree with his points. The two background sections could be merged as there is some repetition to them. If left separate, I think the last paragraph of "Series background" would serve better as the first paragraph instead. The prose needs to be reworked in places, as noted above, because there are some very repetitive sentences as well as some that are confusing. I agree that the order of the series should be chronological. And, lastly, the details of Monet's changes in lifestyle show that 1,000 francs was good money for the time, but it gives no comparative value to modern times. If possible, it would be great to give somewhat of a modern equivalent. LaraLove 23:54, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have created Wildenstein Index Number and changed the link to this new article. The term does not really google test that well, but every time I look at a Monet book it seems to be using these numbers. I hope at some point to have better sources for the new article, but it will suffice for now.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 20:38, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have been searching the internet for an 1891 French Franc currency conversion to no avail. I have contacted the Chicago Public Library and they do not have the information either.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 15:45, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The reason the 1890 harvest is shown first is that it is the focus of the article. The 1888 harvest paintings are ancillary to the series and the article. Therefore they are shown later.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 20:32, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

I think you should return to the four x four format, with slightly larger images. I notice that you eliminated a few images and the six in a row seems odd now. I added a few minor edits. Good luck. Modernist 20:53, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have a low res screen. Even with 4 images at this size, the right hand one is not fully visible. It looks very clunky with 5. Try your screen to 800 x 600 and you'll see what I mean. A lot of people do use this screen resolution. Tyrenius (talk) 20:03, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hold completed, passed GA nomination

Yes, indeed. And thanks for clarifying some points above. Do attempt to address the fact tag as soon as you're able, however. Good work, as always, Tony. LaraLove 14:49, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
