# Talk:In the Ploughed Field: Spring

Golden, should the article title be in title case, In the Ploughed Field. Spring? The first page of a Google books search suggests that is more common than In the ploughed field. Spring. The Wikipedia policy is at MOS:TITLE. TSventon (talk) 09:49, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

@TSventon: Sure, I didn't really pay attention to the capitalization. You're free to move it. — Golden call me maybe? 09:51, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
@Golden:, done, have you looked for English language sources? That would help readers who don't understand Russian. TSventon (talk) 10:22, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
@TSventon: English sources about the painting are scarce but I've now included most of what I could find. I'll look for more later. Thanks for the suggestion. — Golden call me maybe? 11:27, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
@Golden:, I saw at least four English language book sources via Google books, I don't know how useful they are, hopefully at least one will be of some use. TSventon (talk) 13:26, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

Some comments on the prose.
"painting, starting from the 1840s is" → "painting, starting from the 1840s, is"
"Moscow, Russia" should be one link per MOS:SOB
Link monograph.
Link Pavel Tretyakov and Tretyakov Gallery at first mention in the body.
Earwig shows no copyvio.
The references are all reliable and the Russian language ones are used in the Russian article (a GA). Spot-checks on a few I could access found them supporting the claims made. AryKun (talk) 10:48, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
@AryKun: Done! — Golden call me maybe? 13:13, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
No other issues I could find, so passing this. AryKun (talk) 12:39, 15 May 2022 (UTC)

Just to say the form of the title, with the full stop/period, is really unusual in English. Do any sources by mother tongue Anglophones (like Figes) use it?  I would expect a colon or dash. It's also not grammatical. Once you start using full stops, you need one at the end too. Johnbod (talk) 19:58, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
@Johnbod: I've moved the comment from the DYK review page as it doesn't relate to the review. To answer your question, it appears that Figes and Sarabyanov both use a colon instead of a period, whereas Gray and Stites use slightly different names: "Ploughing, Spring" and "In the Field: Spring", respectively. Moving the article to "In the Ploughed Field: Spring" seems like the best option here, as this is also the result we get from translating the Russian name. — Golden call me maybe? 20:34, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
Indeed. Thanks. Johnbod (talk) 21:30, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
