Talk:Andy Goldsworthy/Archive 1

message: Yeah -- someone seems intent on calling him "Mouldsworthy" ... which is not nearly as funny of a pun as they think.  Ah well. --new user
Does anybody know why this page is undergoing the stready stream of vandalism it's been experiencing? It's getting annoying to be fixing it every time I check my watchlist. --Misterwindupbird
:Added to my watchlist in order to help keep an eye on it. You could always request temporary protection if the vandalism gets too out of hand. I love Goldsworthys stuff BTW... quercus robur 18:54, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

I dont know about anyone else but I dont like this kind of comment on the main page of a site left hanging like graffiti.  I found the quotes helpful in understanding the man and his work, and I do wish articles weren't constantly being vandalised by expert wikipedia contributors using these kind of comments and notes - if you want to edit it, edit it boldly, please dont leave litter all over it! I'm about to follow my own advice and delete it.! Excalibur 21:22, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Quotations 

message: Hi, Jmarob. On two occasions you've removed the original imprint information of books by Goldsworthy and replaced it with what appears to be imprint information relating to recent reprints of the books. However, it is useful for readers to know when the books were first published. I would suggest that you add the reprint information as follows:
*
**Reprinted as

thread_title:  Artistic Styles 

message: There are a few major errors in this article that need attention; most notably, the information taken from the Cass source in the Biography section. The sentence: "It has been said that his gradual drift northwards was "due to a way of life over which he did not have complete control", but that contributing factors were opportunities and desires to work in these areas and "reasons of economy." really seems to have issues. First of all "it has been said" is weak. If the statement has not been made by a) a group of several experts or b) someone of key influence on the subject, then the fact in question probably doesn't meet verifiability. The Cass Sculpture foundation website does not provide an author for the biography nor does it show that it has been reviewed or published, which does not really make it a reliable source. Secondly, though the Cass source is in question, this article seems to almost completely plagiarize its content, putting some direct quotes in quotation marks and leaving bits of quoted material outside, doing very little to paraphrase. My first impulse is to remove the lines altogether, though I do think that his reason for changing location can be found in a better source that can justify its claims, so for now I will leave it alone but might try to make the sentence stronger.Mrathel (talk) 15:44, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Just a quick query, as part of getting my head around the licensing/etc for a pic of a generic Chalk Stones Trail boulder, I noticed that the image of the Spire is flagged for deletion (no FoP in the US, unlike a couple of the other ones which are from the UK where we do have a FoP of sorts) - what's the handling for something like this?
