Talk:Ronnie Landfield

message: As the document is not on line, I am going to ask for the exact quote that supports: "Landfield was one of the first painters who led the move away from Minimalism and Hard-edge painting to Lyrical Abstraction" in particular,  the claim "one of the first".  Incidentally do these catalogs have a personal author or were they issued in the name of the gallery? DGG (talk) 05:16, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Such claims do need to be sourced, but catalogs from 1970 are hard to come by, and virtually nonexistent online. This doesn't strike one as a claim inconsistent with the events cited in the article. As one of the artists in the Aldrich Museum show, Landfield would have been an early practitioner of Lyrical Abstraction painting. Here  is an online transcript, from the Smithsonian archives, of a 1972 interview with Larry Aldrich of the Aldrich Museum, in which Landfield is cited several times by Aldrich as one of 32 artists included in the museum's seminal show of Lyrical Abstraction. Aldrich recalls that the exhibition was reviewed by both Time and Newsweek. Apparently Aldrich is credited with coining the 'L.A.' term in this country, in coordination with the exhibition, which continued to the Whitney Museum. The transcripts are lengthy, but cover events in a chronological fashion, and the relevant material is about 2/3 to 3/4 of the way down the page. Over the next week I am going to try to find a copy of the museum catalog. Thanks. JNW (talk) 22:55, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Another relevant mention online, this time on the opening page of a jstor article, in which Landfield is characterized as one of 'the most notable' of the young lyrical abstraction painters of the late 60s. . JNW (talk) 00:32, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Philosopher? 

message: Curious here, why is his birthday simultaneously Sep. 8 (infobox) and Sep. 9 (first paragraph).--Dorwytch (talk) 11:45, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Birth date 

message: From the first paragraph:
> He has been described as "one of the most influential artists in British music history."
Preface: I don't want to shy away from this sentence merely because it is subjective. Wikipedia has good guidelines for dealing with subject with material such as this. Here on Wikipedia, we don't get to decide who is "most"
influential. But we can talk more about the language and criteria that make sense.
In my view, this particular claim (quoted above) is not accurate.
Is it useful to republish inaccurate assessments? Not here in this article, at least.
This above sentence is cited, yes, but given its scope (all British music artists over history), it does not pass muster as a reasonable characterization. Also, it is not a good choice for the first paragraph.
The citation seems both cherry picked and imbalanced. How many other citations will agree with the above characterization? Probably few or none. There are simply too many other British musicians recognized as influential.
At the very least, such claims should be qualified or qualified. Influential to whom? Listeners? Other musicians? By what metric? Over what period of time? For what styles of music?
It is useful to use background context to form something like a basic litmus test. If we ask, "What are the influential British musicians of all time?", what range of opinions are useful? What kinds of criteria matter?
in terms of shaping the evolution of music, the Beatles come to mind. It is not hard to find mini high-quality citations to this effect. 
Yes, I'm implying the existence of background knowledge and some
vague kinds of consensus, at least with regards to what criteria are important.
More specifically, an artist like Tricky (credited for popularizing trip hop), is recognized as being influential in the hip hop genre. Such a sentence is useful in an introductory paragraph. It is specific and falsifiable. DavidCJames (talk) 22:59, 12 January 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Roque Santa Cruz

message: Isn't it a bit of an over-statement to say that Santa Cruz "led" Olimpia Asuncion to anything at all, since he apparently only played 4 games with the senior team? Is the statistic wrong about how many games he played there?
:That stats table says 4 games in the 99-00 season. He "led" Asuncion to the titles in the two seasons prior that. In any event, I was not the author of this section so maybe you can check with the editor.  Or, you can probably just check with a reliable soccer site that provides stats of his full Olimpia career. Chensiyuan 23:42, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: By all means, update per his official site. Chensiyuan 14:56, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Rory Atwell

message: I turned this into a redirect to Test Icicles because there was very little here.  It was reverted on the grounds that he's involved in a number of other notable bands, but I see no evidence for this.  All we've got is some other band with no article and no sources, and a rumor about another band.  Unless and until we have enough info on this guy for a proper article, I see no reason for this to be seperate from the main band article.  Friday (talk) 14:43, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it's not a rumor, the other band has been noted in Pitchfork and has an official Myspace at the last time I saw it.  I'm strongly against any merge at this point. --badlydrawnjeff talk 14:54, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I know you're against any merges, but this doesn't count for much, since as you said you're against any merge.   I don't see much reason to include one-sentence rumors like this.  If it were me, I'd wait until we had actual articles on more than one band this guy's been in, and then consider splitting it out.    Neither other band, nor this guy himself, has an AMG bio, for whatever that's worth.  They're a decent barometer of whether a given group has gotten significance media coverage.  Friday (talk) 15:00, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not against "any merges," I just find most merges to be unnecessary and unhelpful.  This absolutely falls into that category - if people search for Rory Atwell, it's not because they're looking for information on Test Icicles.  I also could have sworn that we had an article on his other band, but I was apparently wrong on that.  Given the attention Test Icicles got before their demise, I expect that to change sooner rather than later.  As for AMG not having an entry on Test Icicles, I'm surprised by that.  Not so much Atwell solo or RAT:ATT:AGG. --badlydrawnjeff talk 15:34, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: AMG does have an article on Test Icicles, sorry for not being clear.  To me this is one indicator that his new projects are less significant that the Test Icicles.  But on the other hand this is pretty far from a typical musician vanity page so I don't see much harm in it either.  Friday (talk) 15:40, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, given that his other project hasn't released anything yet, I agree - it is currently less significant.  I do expect that to change, given the buzz Test Icicles was getting before they imploded.  If we were talking about redirecting RAT_ATT_AGG here until more info came along, I'd probably be on your side about it, for the record.
