Talk:Konstantin Stanislavski

message: I've put in a request at Requested Moves for the page to be shifted to Konstantin Stanislavski. As discussed above, the name is transliterated variously as "Constantin/Konstantin" and "Stanislavski/Stanislavsky/Stanislavskii". The 1930s translations opted for C/-i. The modern critical editions use "K/-i". When the page was moved, the "-i" seems to have been overlooked. The modern editions are here, for anyone who wants to check:

Once the move is effected, I'll clean up all instances in the article.  • DP •  {huh?} 13:36, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Page move to the standard transliteration 

message: I've expanded the article from the early years that I wrote a few years ago to cover the entire period of Stanislavski's life now. The modern convention of calling his methodology his 'system' rather than his system has been retained throughout, in line with the standard critical editions of his work and Benedetti's biography. MLA author-date for citations, for ease of bundling and clarity of sources. All transliterations from the Russian follow those adopted by Benedetti.  • DP •  {huh?} 12:41, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Substantial expansion

message: Note that I've had a run-through of the images used in this article and have fixed a number of licensing problems (mostly that either US or non-US license tag was missing, and Commons requires both now, or the tag used was wrong or too general). There are only two obvious concerns remaining:
*:File:Diagram of Stanislavski's 'system'.jpg
**It looks like a scan, rather than an original drawing by the uploader, which would mean the license tag is wrong, and I can't find an alternative provenance for it.
*:File:Craig's design (1908) for Hamlet 1-2 at Moscow Art Theatre.jpg
**This is not in the public domain in its country of origin (UK), because the artist (Edward Gordon Craig) died in 1966 (less than 70 years ago).
 note that some, but not all, your concerns about image licensing have been addressed. --Xover (talk) 16:30, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you for pitching in on this - I do try to be very careful about possible CC-BY-SA/public domain/copyright issues with images.  I'll look into the 2 remaining issues and see what possibilities I can find about their status. Shearonink (talk) 17:56, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  Agreed.  The Craig sketch has been nom'ed for deletion on Commons which, I agree with (with much sadness).  The only remaining possible issue is with the "diagram" with the English translations...the parameters are filled out over on Commons but I am not certain that they are completely correct in terms of copyright status.

replies: text: Regarding the diagram, with a TinEye search I found a Russian version that is very similar, but definitely not the same drawing. The image does look like a scan, but it's possible that DionysosProteus drew a new version of the diagram and scanned it. It's also possible that it is a scan from an unidentified source (which in turn may or may not be PD). With no clear evidence to say otherwise, I'm inclined to accept DionysosProteus' declaration on Commons that it is their own work. --RL0919 (talk) 22:44, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
