I believe the Heinlein wife that Hubbard had an affair with was Heinlein's second wife Leslyn MacDonald, not his third wife Virginia whom Heinlein didn't marry until 1948. AndroidCat (talk) 20:19, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Prioryman. Could I make a request about photographing a sculpture in Westminster? The lede pic for Knife Edge Two Piece 1962–65 (a Good Article) has just been removed from Commons as it had no licensing information. It would be nice to have a high-quality and up-to-date photo of this sculpture; it received conservation work in 2013, and the best photo on Commons is from 2010. There's also nothing on Flickr or Geograph. There's no hurry whatsoever to do this, but would you be interested? I love the photos of sculptures at Petworth, by the way. Ham II (talk) 07:26, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I did actually photograph it some time ago. I'll try to dig out the pictures. Prioryman (talk) 09:34, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you so much. Have you got anything else that would be useful for the sub-lists of List of public art in London? I'm working on a complete overhaul of List of public art in the City of London, which will have left my sandbox by the end of the year, so anything in the City would be especially appreciated.

Halloween hooks

[edit]

I'm sorry the discussion on the WT:DYK talk page didn't result in the creation of a subpage for Halloween hooks, which would have put all the suggested and approved hooks in one place and made things much clearer. I understand your listing suggested hooks both in the regular noms area and in the Halloween holding area. But once a hook is approved, I think it should be deleted from the regular noms area and only appear in the Halloween holding area, right? I've done that for a few approved hooks already.

Thank you for uploading File:Going-Clear-Scientology-e-la-prigione-della-fede.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion.
