User talk:Freshacconci

Freshacconci is busy and is going to be on Wikipedia in off-and-on doses, and may not respond swiftly to queries.

On 7 August 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Flight Stop, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that each of the sixty geese in Michael Snow's Flight Stop (pictured) is wearing a costume made from photographs of a dead Canada goose culled from Toronto Island? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Flight Stop. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Flight Stop), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

On 22 September 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Picture for Women, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Picture for Women by Canadian artist Jeff Wall is a photographic response to Édouard Manet's last major painting, A Bar at the Folies-Bergère (pictured)? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Picture for Women. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000.

Edward Hopper

The source I provided is reliable and from a peer-reviewed art historical journal, The Burlington Magazine. This is valid new information about Hopper's earliest oils and corrects the existing outdated information.

RE. photo purporting to be Nico

Hi!

I have to disagree with you regarding the photograph which you believe to be Nico, performing with the Velvet Underground in Ann Arbor, Michigan, 1966.

Nico never wore dresses onstage with the Velvets, certainly not flowery patterns! She wore trouser suits. We can verify this was the case for the Ann Arbor show specifically, thanks to a news article covering the actual event: Velvet Underground Live at the Ann Arbor Film Festival, Detroit, Michigan, on the 12th of March 1966. The concert was reviewed by the Detroit Free Press on Tuesday 15 March 1966. The reviewer describes the show as, "a combination of film and live music and dance. While a beautiful blond girl sang, her image was projected on three separate 'screens,' including her own white jacket." The review is accessible online via Newspapers.com - https://www.newspapers.com/image/97864650/?terms=%22Festival%2C%2Band%2Bfilms%2Bby%2BWarhol%22

I have another image of Nico onstage with the Velvet Underground in Michigan, November 1966, with Catherine James also in the same shot (in a similar cut of dress and physical posture). In the pic, Nico is wearing her white trouser suit. It's from the same event covered in the Dangerous Minds article, but wasn't included. I can't find the picture online anywhere so can't link to it. I'm afraid I don't have copyright clearance for this picture, but I can upload it here if that's okay?

Essentially, though, the proof is in the Detroit Free Press article I've quoted.

I hope you'll agree that this is not actually Nico after all, and I hope you find the materials interesting!

All the best,

I Am The Walrus

Hello,

How do you expect me to cite sources for a conspiracy theorist section? Considering this, there are no "credible" resources that I would be able to site.

I spent hours writing this section. Everything that I wrote is true. Would you want me to site sources from all internet sources?

I find this highly disrespectful. I went out of my way to do research and actually write something that I have actually have knowledge of.

Do you want me to site articles? If so I will gladly do so.

Thanks. PolitiFactUSA (talk) 10:45, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at I Am the Walrus, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. freshacconci (✉) 14:03, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

She's A Woman

...in regards to "She's A Woman" I do believe I have provided links/references (e.g. Official Charts Company, Record Collector^[1]^[2] etc) that are reliable sources and are from a neutral point of view, with no original research. The fact that "She's A Woman" was a Top 20 hit in the UK and not for the Beatles, is a fact...and I cannot see why it wouldn't be a fact - look if Candy Flip's rubbish version of Strawberry Fields Forever is allowed in that article then surely Scritti should be mentioned under She's A Woman, Suggs under I'm Only Sleeping and Oasis' cover of I am The Walrus too in that article. Oasis should be mentioned in the I Am The Walrus article too, because they are mentioned under I'm Only Sleeping and thats only because someone found a YouTube clip of Stereophonics with Oasis. However, when it comes to Beatles tunes Oasis are probably better known for their version of I am The Walrus^[3] seeing that Oasis are one of the most important bands in the last 30 years (in the United Kingdom anyway)...much more than Candy Flip ever were, who might just get a mention in some quarters of the press these days thanks to Robbie's Rudebox)...could be infobox worthy).

European Americans

European American is not an ethnic group that includes all immigrants from Europe. Europe is diverse genetically and culturally.

Officially there is 87 ethnic groups recognized as Native peoples of Europe.

I am a Russian minority American of European Russia and if you think I’m going to say my ethnicity is European American you’re dead wrong. Cause it isn’t. And you will never get me to say otherwise. I’m closer to a few Siberian groups than I am to some Europeans both genetically and culturally.

And on my forms it says “Russian/Udmurt” as ethnicity. And you can take me to court if you want to change that. EurasianCultures (talk) 00:58, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:AFC Helper News

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.

AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

Kellner in Postmodernism

I was the editor who originally added Kellner, I believe. I did so after reading Best and Kellner. I'm rethinking this, as I read more material on the subject. At a minimum, the length of the text on Kellner seems disproportionate. Perhaps you are correct that he deserves inclusion, but with less (somewhat too detailed) exposition.

Help and guidance needed.

Hi Freshacconci,

My interests are topics such as the Visual Arts and specifically Contemporary Art. And I have been an avid reader of Wikipedia and a silent observer(and appreciator) of it's growth as a community since the last 15 years. I officially joined over 12 years ago. So my contribution as an article, on this topic I found, that I created all that while back; I'd like to genuinely contribute and build towards: hoping it would be part of the Featured Article column someday. Taking this opportunity to share how I sincerely look up to how you've channeled your thoughts on your talk page, and it's perhaps my reading experience that tells me you'd be of great help.

Which bring me to my request of seeking your help and guidance. I'd like you to perhaps contribute your time and effort in helping me build this further. Article: Manav Gupta

Subject 1:

As you're perhaps more experienced on due process. I wanted to add the following images to Wikipedia and consequently the article: Section Paintings: sold by Christies, Bonhams: Umbilical Cords of Earth, Air, Water, Fire, Space, Non Limiting Horizons, Public Art Installations and Projects: River Waterfront, Beehives, Rain, Rainforest and the Beehive GardenAnd would be grateful if you could help upload these.

Subject 2:

The following banner template was added over 9 years ago by you on the page of Manav Gupta.

As one can note, the article has had significant improvements following and adhering to Wikipedia: Manual of Style/Biography and Wikipedia: Biography dos and don'ts in the edit of 2023.

In adherence to Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, I have done no original research on this subject. This is simply my contribution towards doing justice to topics such as biographies of living persons and adding to Wikipedia: WikiProject Visual arts. I'd like to believe that I have been thorough in citing notable references to any text placed in the article. The text used in the article does use facts and attribution to demonstrate it's existence.

Having stated all of this, I would like to humbly request you to please remove any wordings that do not meet the criteria of existing at all, in the article. I would sincerely appreciate if you could take some time out and provide me with some feedback on what I should do to better report and formalise my thoughts. But above all for you to perhaps show me how one can address such issues by your kind contribution towards solving this and taking it a step closer to featured article criteria status.

Warm Regards,

Max roosevelt (talk) 10:32, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
