Art Green, The Hairy Who and Chicago Imagists

edit

Hi Artemis-Arethusa, my research reveals that The Hairy Who was a Chicago group in the 1960s that put on a few shows. After Art Green left Chicago and the group, the Chicago Imagists was formed by remaining members of The Hairy Who and some new members. I will update the Chicago Imagists article to reflect this. Clerks. 21:03, 30 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for starting the Imagists article. I probably wouldn't have realized that I knew enough about them to make an article. Clerks. 15:54, 1 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

You are quite welcome. Someone deleted it, I presuem, but the deletion log entry is missing, so i have no idea who or for what reason. Since I don't see any obvious reason for the deletion, I treated it as if I ahd come upon it with a speedy tag. Log glitches do happen sometimes. DES (talk) 21:11, 7 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

no user page

edit

I just saw your post at WP:VPA. To stop people from posting to your User page by accident, you can do two things:

  1. Modify your signature under "my preferences" (upper right of the page). Add [[User talk:Artemis-Arethusa|Artemis-Arethusa]] to the signature box and click the "Raw Signature" box. That way anyone that clicks on your username on any page that you have signed is automatically directed to your talk page.
  2. Create your user page as a redirect to your talk page. The only drawback of this is that then your user page does technically exist.

At a minimum, you may wish to do #1 to make it harder for people to accidentally get to your user page. -- Flyguy649 talk contribs 19:41, 17 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

edit

I think with a little more work, this article can attain Good Article status. I've done a bit of work on cleaning up the references and improving the organization of the article, but I don't actually know anything about the event, nor do I have ready access to most of the cited works. I know you've contributed to it in the past, can you help check items off the to-do list? Thanks, Cmadler (talk) 19:27, 22 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

edit

As you did in this edit to Holling_C._Holling. The paragraph beginning: "Holling graduated from the" is a direct copy from the author bio already listed at the bottom of the article. That bio has a clear statement of copyright at the bottom. That was clearly illegal. Did you think no-one would notice? Don't do that. Now we'll have to go through all your over 500 contribs to see what other legal surprises may be lurking. Sigh. I hate it when folks do this.

Hello, Artemis-Arethusa. You have new messages at Moonriddengirl's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
And now you have more, at the same location. Sorry it's taken me so long to respond to your kind and sensible apology. I've just now read over (and did a bit of copyediting) on Visual arts of Chicago; it is very nicely cited -- I presume one of it's purposes is to provide a launching point for writing bios of various of the currently redlinked artists mentioned? Keep up the good work. JesseW, the juggling janitor 07:54, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

If you write something, anything, on your user page then your user name will not appear in red, but rather in blue and that seems, amoung things, to be much better for a water nymph. Carptrash (talk) 21:08, 14 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

It seems to me that aesthetics usually don't win out, especially when up against the marketplace, but actually this is a bit more than that. I have 1,500 (more or less) articles on my watchlist and I feel honor bound (another trait that has trouble with the marketplace) to check all edits done by annon users or those by red links. However I am also aware that my problems to not translate into your problems. Which, trust me, is a very good thing. Carptrash (talk) 21:19, 14 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

P.S. You mean these? [1]

That's considered (by me) to be a pretty cheesy reason. But, as you pointed out, wikipedia is not about me. This [2] site, which you probably know, has a lot of detail that could be tastefully strip mined. Carptrash (talk) 21:35, 14 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

I am reluctant to suggest making your life tougher to make mine easier, but yes, you have grasped the essentials. However I, for one, will recognize you when we cross from now on, goddesses being what they are and mortals being what they are. Carptrash (talk) 22:14, 14 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Category:History of fashion

edit

I notice you were populating History of fashion with military uniform articles. Why is this? Don't they already fall into subcategories such as Category:United States Army Uniforms etc. etc.? and By the Way, I thought you were a new editor because you don't have a user page. Red user pages usually means brand new user. Sadads (talk) 17:33, 7 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Why not just move the category into the category, instead of each individual page? Sadads (talk) 17:41, 7 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for File:2001_Millennium_Philcon_World_Science_Fiction_Convention_program.gif

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:2001_Millennium_Philcon_World_Science_Fiction_Convention_program.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Melesse (talk) 22:39, 3 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Norton Garfinkle, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Colgate (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

You are edit warring on Books LLC (reverting without comment). You will be blocked from editing if you persist. Rklawton (talk) 18:45, 25 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Interesting. I most certainly am not. I'm not sure I've used the "revert" function even once in the eight years I have been a Wikipedia editor, nor did I undo anyone's edits. What I did do was add a line about the controversial nature of the publisher mentioned to its page, as well as a note that its primary methodology is copying and binding Wikipedia articles, which is simple fact and was already cited in the references given.Artemis-Arethusa (talk) 21:50, 25 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Nina Weiss

edit
 

The article Nina Weiss has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A search for references failed to find significant coverage in reliable sources to comply with notability requirements. This included web searches for news coverage, books, and journals, which can be seen from the following links:
Nina Weissnews, books, scholar
Consequently, this article is about a subject that appears to lack sufficient notability. Please see the plain-language summary of our notability guidelines.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
