Talk:Basilica of Maxentius

message: I have expanded  the description with architectural details from The Roman Empire (c) copyright 2002 TASCHEN GmbH Holhenzollenring 53, D-50672 Kōln www.taschen.com. That's the imprint as printed in the Taschen book. Despite its inept title this a serious and very detailed book is about Roman architecture. The author and editor is Henri Stierlin, born 1928 in Alexandria, studied Greek and Latin in Zurich and Lausanne, was editor-in-chief of the 16 volume Architecture Universelle published by Editions de L'Office du Livre. He "has devoted intensive study to the field of classical architecture, published Le Monde de la Grèce Paris 1980, and Grèce d'Asie Paris 1986."
The details I've described can be seen on the plan drawing (second image in the article [Image:Dehio 6 Basilica of Maxentius Floor plan.jpg] .

message: The Portico never ended the way as Dehio's plan shows: Instead, the most precise measuring drawings from the Renaissance (Berlin, Kunstbiblbiothek, HDZ 4151 = so-called "Codex Destailleur D", fol. 11r/v) show a small apsis at the northern end – and for symmetry reasons, we may assume that the other end looked the same.

Talk:Mal Pope

message: Adding the comment 'So bad...convert to Islam' is a good gag.  However it is from an unattributed critic and  from an unattriruted source and seems to be at odds with the majority of reviews regarding this show.  It might well be true as being from a bone fide critic.  It maybe even true as an opinion about the show but it should be verifiable.
WIKIPEDIA POLICY
Entires must be verifiable.  
Articles should contain only material that has been published by reliable sources. 
Editors adding new material should cite a reliable source, or it may be challenged or removed by any editor. 
The obligation to provide a reliable source lies with the editors wishing to include the material, not on those seeking to remove it. 
Repeated inclusion of such an unattibutable review could well be considered Vandalism.
Vandalism is any addition, deletion, or change of content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia.
The most common type of vandalism is the replacement of existing text with obscenities, page blanking, or the insertion of bad jokes or other nonsense. Fortunately, this kind of vandalism is usually easy to spot.
Any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism. Apparent bad-faith edits that do not make their bad-faith nature inarguably explicit are not considered vandalism at Wikipedia. For example, adding a personal opinion once is not vandalism — it's just not helpful, and should be removed or restated.
Committing vandalism is a violation of Wikipedia policy; it needs to be spotted, and then dealt with — if you cannot deal with it yourself, you can seek help from others. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Malpope (talk • contribs) 07:01, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Malcolm Arnold

message: The only mention in the present text of Malcolm Arnold conducting is in relation to the Jon Lord Concerto in 1969, and in another section on this talk page "numerous commissions" are mentioned. Can anyone elaborate on Arnold's conducting with more cases, so that a separate section in the article might be justified? Where did Arnold learn to conduct anyway and were any recordings made of him conducting? I am Dutch and I am lacking the informed background or sources to do this, but maybe someone else, from Britain?--Hansung02 (talk) 01:18, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Conductor 

message: I'm surprised that there is no reference to any of Arnold's children in the article.  Just from references in the liner notes to his symphonies I am aware that he had children, and that one of them was autistic.  I guess they themselves may not be wikipedia notable, but they are an important part of Arnold's life.
OK - I have from the Naxos recording of symphonies 7 and 8 "The dedication "To Katherine, Robert and Edward", Arnold's children, would hardly merit comment were it not for the character of the score... Whether or not the dedication conceals a deeper personal intent is something on which to ponder."  I can't find the reference to one of his sons being autistic, maybe it's in with the symphonic dances?  But there's something somewhere about one of the Irish tunes being included in his 7th or 8th symphony because it was the favourite of one of his sons. -- PaulHammond (talk) 10:35, 23 February 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Malcolm Boyd

message: I looked this up to see if Rev. Boyd is still living.  I was pleased to discover that he is. However I was disappointed to find no reference to his book "Are You Running with me Jesus?" which really made him famous, nor his time as a chaplain at Wayne State University in Detroit.  While I am a strong admirer of Boyd, I think an encyclopedic article would reasonably refer to some of the controversy surrounding him.   It is essential to understanding Boyd that he never shunned controversy whether you agreed with him or not.  Frog one (talk) 01:16, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

"We had an extended engagement in Zurich. We were the band for the theater production of Prometheus. The production was one of the productions for the Schauspielhaus in Zurich, during the summer of 1969. I (Malcolm Mooney) was standing in the rear of the theater listening to Irmin, Holger, Jaki and Miki. I thought I heard the band as a fouur piece unit, they (CAN) sounded great, that  was my initial que to leave the band. From that day until I left Germany in December 1969 my mnd was set to change the way I was living. The breakdown came about afetr I started detox withdrawal."

Talk:Malcolm Morley

message: Hello,
I am editing Malcolm Morley's Wikipedia page in order to fix errors including typos and to flesh out the entry with more information. It was disorganized and incomplete, for example skipping decades of his life under the "life" section. The "work" section often deals more with describing episodes of his life than with discussing his work, which was diverse and varied and is barely covered. The entry could also use far more illustrations.
By way of disclosure, I work at the New York gallery Sperone Westwater, which worked closely with the artist until his death and now works closely with his estate. We sell Morley's work to collectors and museums. 
I will keep my edits objective and will use published sources including museum exhibition catalogues and the like. 
I have never edited a Wikipedia page before, so hopefully I'll get it right. I will watch for messages and am open to any corrections experienced editors would like to point out. 
Thanks,
Brian

message: This article gets into specifics far too soon. I arrived here as a schmuck not knowing what the "World Scout Movement" is. This article lacks contextual clues such as "scouting is a thing where kids wear uniforms and tromp around in the woods in an organized fashion."
