Talk:Dan Hicks (archaeologist)

message: This section seems a little too heavy on relatively minor appointments, many with no citation, and detail on newspaper articles which also sometimes appear with no citation. It has the feel of a CV at points and this makes it a little uneconomical and clumsy. I have made a minor alteration elsewhere to balance the reviews of one book, which were mixed rather than universally in praise. If any other editors have a view, please do say, otherwise I will tidy up a little more in a few days. All the best, Emmentalist (talk) 21:16, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I tried expanded the criticisms you added but a dormant account that hasn't edited in four years suddenly popped up and keeps removing it giving false reasoning each time. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 18:42, 22 October 2023 (UTC)

text: A series of accounts that only edit this article (Oxensie, Oxford fad, Archaeofacts) and spa's that only promote Hicks (Anthrofac, Poiuy00, GadsebyE, As998877, Sjceji2 and recently Landscape walker) so the promotion is problematic and goes back years. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 20:18, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks @ThaddeusSholto I've made a comment at the COI page. I see now that @landscapewalker reverted my edits more or less as soon as they were made. I have also reviewed your reverted edits, which seem to me to improve the article, and see that the reasons given for reverting them by @landscapewalker are themselves unreferenced and look, to my eye, like an interested party might be editing the page. I will wait to see what happens with the COI report in order to avoid engaging in an edit war with @landscapewalker. All the best, Emmentalist (talk) 23:56, 22 October 2023 (UTC)

text: Well that escalated while I was away! Did you see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/NB1965? At least two of the accounts were blocked as socks. I guess the others are too old to know but now there are other eyes on the article making changes to cut down the promotional aspects. Thank you for being the first to start the heavy lifting to fix the article. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 12:26, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

text: I adjusted the criticism to better format the references but I want to thank you for drawing attention to the work that needs to be done on the article. Hicks is definitely notable and the article should stay but the COI edits and puffery need to stop. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 15:13, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Canvas print

message: While a canvas print may in fact be "a kind of" stretched canvas, I think this opening statement is misleading because a canvas print may or may not be stretched on a frame, whereas a "stretched canvas" is canvas stretched over stretcher boards; the conventional inference is that the canvas is not painted, but it may be -- although a painted canvas is more often called a "painting". The relatively new technology of printing onto canvas is rightly distinguished from the traditional connotation of 'a canvas' and as such, "stretched canvas print" would be a more accurate term for what the previous writer seems to have been describing. While this is probably the more usual state of a printed canvas product, it is not the definitive state.

thread_title:  not the same as a stretched canvas 

message: The popularity of canvas prints has been aided by the general development of and increased accessibility to graphics technology, including printers and software. The benefits of the Giclée process over traditional methods to printmakers include lower set-up and maintenance costs. This, combined with the continued rise in computer use has allowed individual artists and photographers, as well as large printhouses, to create prints of their work to sell. Online galleries, in comparison to traditional retail outlets allow prints to be sold on an on-demand basis, as well as the means to offer customised canvas prints.
I moved the above paragraph to talk because it has many problems. No references showing this method is more popular. These methods are cheaper compared to what? Online galleries only sell on demand? This all sounds like opinion. Giclee is not a process, its a trade name. The "process" would be inkjet printing. 75.196.194.31 (talk) 03:59, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  remove italicization of title 

message: The Arena Chapel is hailed as one of the greatest masterpieces of Western art. As such, it has garnered a lot of scholarly attention and incited much scholarly debate. It is obvious that one scholar (Giuliani Pisani) has written a large part of this wikipedia entry and inserted his views, which he presented as facts. (See for example the references to Pisani throughout the article, the list of references which include mostly his publications and the sparse mention of other scholars.) It should be noted that what Pisani claims has not been widely accepted by the scholarly community. In order for this article to be fair, neutral and balanced,it needs to present Pisani's argument as one hypothesis of the many, mention major scholarship on Giotto (such as the three books published on the topic in 2008!) as well as acknowledge that scholarly debate about the topic persists. Students may use this Wikipedia article as an introduction to the topic, so it is important that it presents a balanced picture so that readers are not led astray.

Talk:Dan Peek

message: The article says that Dan was not present when Gerry sang the background vocals, i think this is wrong. Watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rpv_ukm7WdA
Chris Christian (whose real name is Lon Smith) is the guy on the left at the beginning, Dan the one on the right and the one who hugs Gerry when he enters the studio.
By the way, an interesting information: according to Dan's book "Our Day In The Sun" the video was recorded by Chris Christian without Dan's knowledge. Dan found the video cassette titled "Dan and Gerry" the next day in the studio, took it with him and threw it away. Now a few days after Dan's passing, the video occurs on Youtube... by who? YMCrecords, and who is the man behind that record company? Chris Christian, of course. Curious, isn't it? You can read it in the prologue of the book in the Amazon preview: http://www.amazon.com/Our-Day-Sun-ebook/dp/B00507DA7I#reader_B00507DA7I
To make it even more suspect, I've pointed to all that in a comment on the video on Youtube and my comment has been deleted. You can read about it here: http://america.accessbackstage.com/index.php?module=phpwsbb&PHPWSBB_MAN_OP=view&PHPWS_MAN_ITEMS=26046

thread_title:  Name 

message: (1) The term "Died in his sleep" rather than "dead in his bed" has already been established by two editors to be the preferable content in regard to Peek's death in this article.
(2) Leaving "During this period" in the paragraph that contains  "Peek was 'a spectrum drug abuser, alcoholic, you name it' gives clarification as when Peek was using drugs and alcohol.
Further removal of the above preferred content will have to be seen as disruptive and will likely be reported to the appropriate administrator's noticeboard.  Other editors are welcome to weigh in on this.  Lhb1239 (talk) 00:28, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

message: I added a few. I removed the "sources needed" banner, even though some more sources could be added. There is nothing contentious in the biography, certainly nothing libelous. He identifies as a naturalist in the preface/intro to Making of a Prophet, I just don't have the book on me. The summary of the book is spot-on, although unsourced. The one thing I would like to fine is a source saying he resigned from the church. I think it's best not to make unsourced assertions about someone's religious beliefs or affiliations.

Category talk:Shades of violet

message: I propose that this category and its associated template be moved to ...:Shades of purple (or ...:Varieties of purple).  My reasoning is simple.  Violet refers specifically to the colour of 380–420 nanometre spectral light or a colour of similar hue.  Therefore such colours as magenta, cerise, red-violet, sangria, rose, etc. are too reddish to be considered shades of violet.  One might even argue that indigo is also no shade of violet being too bluish (440-420 nanometres).  Purple, on the other hand, is a broader term ... at least in everyday speech: purple includes all of these colours between red and blue.  If consensus is reached that we should rather use the more specialised and restricted chromaticians' sense of the word purple, then perhaps we should split rather than move the category/template.  I, however, wouldn't find the latter necessary or desireable.  Of course, before doing any of this we should wait to see what becomes of the proposal to move Category:Shades of orange (and therefore all Shades of ... categories & templates) so as to void the risk of having to move/split Category/Template:Shades of violet twice. Jimp 00:42, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
