Talk:Madison, Virginia

message: I have moved the following link from the article to here pending full removal:
*Events and festivals in Madison, VA
First the link leads to a registration page of some sort ... one that provides no relevant information about Madison, VA or any indication that registering would lead to any specific information on the topic.  Also looking at the URL itself shows nothing that could be reasonably construed as a link to any specific content ... and certainly nothing that would link to "Events and Festivals" in this tiny little township. 
Unless someone can make a compelling argument for keeping this link I plan to remove it entirely from this talk page as well.  It basically looks like spam that's intended to generate registrations (personal name, address and other private data). (I'll also be searching the rest of wikipedia for other occurences of this).

thread_title:  Suspicious Link 

message: I don't have the skills to do this, so I'm asking that someone more knowledgeable than I do it.
Madison was once named Madison Court House. This was the style in Virginia in days past. Is it possible for someone set this up so a search for Madison Court House will bring one here? I am not asking for the article to be renamed, just an alternative search term.
There are several sources I found quickly referring to the place by that name
https://ehistory.osu.edu/books/official-records/060/0107
https://www.lva.virginia.gov/public/vnp/results.php?counties=Madison&submit=Search+by+County (Madison Greene Free Press entry)

It also appears by that name in the excellent book, "Fredericksburg, a Study in War," by Major G. W. Redway of the British Army, which I am currently reading.

Talk:Rose Thompson Hovick

message: Hi, I'm the author of MAMA ROSE'S TURN, the biography of Rose Thompson Hovick, mother of actresses Gypsy Rose Lee and June Havoc.  I would like to report an innacuracy on the page.  Rose's desire for her girls to enter show business did NOT break up her marriage.  They didn't even begin dancing lessons until after Rose and her husband Jack Hovick were divorced.  The idea of putting the girls in show business only came after Rose saw that her daughter June was a toe-dancing prodigy, which happened over a year after she had already divorced the girls' father.
Sincerely,
Carolyn Quinn

* Rose married Olaf Hovick 28 May 1910 in Seattle.
* Rose married Judson Brennerman 26 May 1916 in Seattle.
* Don't know if this is worth noting or not -- Rose was not consistent with her middle name. On her application for a passport she states her middle name is Elizabeth.

Talk:Leona

message: Re this claim:
:Leona is the German variant of the French name Léon, both meaning 'like a lioness'.
This is wrong in several ways. 
*The source doesn't state that "Leona" is derived from the French version. It could be derived from any number of other sources, e.g. directly from the Latin.
*The source doesn't state that "Léon" means "like a lionness". It doesn't. It simply means "lion". In fact, "Leona" doesn't mean "like a lionness" either, it has no lexical meaning in any of the languages in question, over and above referring to the name "Leon".
*The source does state that "Leona" is German (well, "English and German", to be exact.) I question the correctness of this claim, as the source is not a reliable source. In my experience, this name is not common in German. Show me a few German persons who have this name and I'll reconsider. Fut.Perf. ☼ 05:34, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Rembrandt lighting

message: It seems wrong to use chiaroscuro style paintings 
for examples of a photographic lighting technique.
It's all visual art. Only different mediums. James Nachtwey, generally considered one of the best photographers working today, got his degree in art history and figured out all the photography stuff himself. --69.134.73.174 16:49, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

message: This article asserts that "Rembrandt lighting is a combination of short and butterfly lighting". That entire paragraph seems fundamentally incorrect, for a number of reasons:
First, butterfly lighting generally consists of key light in front of and above subject, casting that unique shadow below the nose, but generally fully lighting the cheeks. That's very different from (and in my opinion, inconsistent with) Rembrandt lighting, in which a side of the face is largely in shadow except for a characteristic light area below the eye. Yes, in Rembrandt lighting the key light needs to be bit higher than in some other lighting set ups (in order to cast the lower portion of the jaw and cheek in shadow), but if that's what the author was referring to when suggesting that it was like butterfly lighting, I think the choice of terminology is confusing at best.
Second, it suggests that Rembrandt lighting consists of short lighting. But I've seen plenty of pictures, both paintings and photographs, that have Rembrandt lighting which is not employing short lighting, but rather the light is on the side of the face closest to the camera, in effect, broad lighting. (Amusingly, all the Rembrandt paintings that are used to illustrate the effect all feature broad lighting, not short lighting.)
It seems that Rembrandt lighting neither exhibits butterfly lighting, nor requires short lighting. It seems that it's all a function of the nature of the shadow the nose casts on the side of the face opposite the main light, which the article accurately describes. The rest of this article has got it basically right, but I think that the reference to these other lighting types is off.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eoonline (talk • contribs) 14:44, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rembrandt lighting is a combination of short and butterfly lighting? 

message: "The key in Rembrandt lighting is creating the triangle or diamond shape of light underneath the eye."  I am looking at the example images and I do not see this triangle or diamond shape.

message: It's broad lighting. There's no triangle, or actually, any light on the right side of the face, making it an entirely different lighting technique.

This defense was first played, at masterly level, in a tournament in São Paulo, Brazil, in October 19th, 1954, with its creator Brazilian IM Helder Câmara conducting the black pieces in a draw game against Manoel Madeira de Ley.

(Graham) As in Yugoslavia, it served the interests of the regime to minimize the civil nature of the conflict.
