Talk:Ossip Zadkine

message: Zadkine was born on 4 July 1890 in the city of Vitsebsk, part of the Russian Empire (now Belarus). Source: Musée Zadkine, Paris. Coldcreation (talk) 05:58, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It is assumed that the date of birth listed at the Musée Zadkine website is correct. After all, they have the entire Zadkine archive and are the sole beneficiaries of the Zadkine Estate. The date of 14 July is listed almost everywhere else on the Internet. But that may be incorrect. I will see if his birth certificate can be found online. Coldcreation (talk) 06:14, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Henri Laurens

message: Although I am not well versed in French copyright law, I was surprised to see that my picture of his grave has been removed. The sculpture on the grave has already been there for more than 50 years and is a good example of his works. Many articles on notable French persons contain photographs of their graves. When a picture is removed, the reference to that picture should also be removed. Now the article contains a reference to a picture that is no longer there, which a reader may find odd. --JHvW (talk) 08:32, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Sleepsack (BDSM)

message: I am noticing the 'commercial' links have been removed several times.  I would like a clarification on the policy of commercial links.  From the Wikipedia Manual of Style, External Links category I found the following guidelines in section 4.1 'advertising and conflicts of interest'
"Due to the rising profile of Wikipedia and the amount of extra traffic it can bring a site, there is a great temptation to use Wikipedia to advertise or promote links. This includes both commercial and non-commercial sites. You should avoid linking to a website that you own, maintain or represent, even if the guidelines otherwise imply that it should be linked. If the link is to a relevant and informative site that should otherwise be included, please consider mentioning it on the talk page and let neutral and independent Wikipedia editors decide whether to add it. This is in line with the conflict of interests guidelines."
I agree in principal that it is preferable to use non-commerical links when possible.  However there are very few resources about this subject matter on the internet, and few as rich in content as the sites which were previously included that are commercial.  As to not appear to favor one commercial vendor I chose the three stores I felt had the best sleepsack pages.  These sites include good photographs of actual sleepsacks and in some cases sizing diagrams and other supplemental information.
I am in no way affiliated with any of the sites listed nor am I receiving any benefit from including the sites in the article.  Seeing that there is no policy specifically against commercial links, and there is no personal conflict of interest on my part I would like to reinstate the previous links.  I believe all the links provided in the original article provide a potential service to the reader.

message: I removed what I consider to be commercial links from the article again.  From looking at this edit they were added for promotional purposes.  If you're going to add in a link that contains the word campaign, something in there is commercial. --Drmike (talk) 19:17, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Antoine Bourdelle

message: I've just reverted to a version that was still properly formatted and structured. Recent edits by Weglinde, beginning here, introduced a host of modifications without discussion in Talk first. That edit, and subsequent edits, introduced a giant unreferenced block of text, numerous lists (e.g., about War memorials, etc.) that belong is separate articles (e.g., List of works by Antoine Bourdelle). Discuss first, before any further modifications of the kind. Coldcreation (talk) 11:23, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I do believe,  Coldcreation, that the polite thing to do would be to have informed  Weglinde before making your cuts.  His edits were obviously well intended and represent a large amount of effort on his/her part.  A warning shot across the bow is a time honored tradition that was (opinion) called for here. Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 15:52, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: You bring up a good point Carptrash. Weglinde was informed directly after the revert, not before. That said, much of that well intended effort will surely find its way back into the article, when properly sourced. And the list of works introduced into the article by Weglinde will be included in an all-encompassing (or almost so) List of works by Antoine Bourdelle, even if I have to create that page myself. One more point: it was a bold move on the part of User:Weglinde to modify the article such, and I respect that, however, it would have been more judicious on his/her part to discuss the changes here first.

message: Hi! I am noticing there is an unclear citation style - nothing is listed as a reference and it appears the same reference has been used many times (with the exact same page number?). Also there is a list of books and possible future references in the section titled "Bibliography" however they are not all used in line? Would it be okay to consolidate this one reoccurring citation?

Talk:François Rude

message: Wrong month of birth
Hi,
François Rude was not born in June, but in January. This seems to be a classical copy and paste-error, that could now be found in several other wikipedia-languages and many websides. But really no one of about 30 international printed encyclopaediae from 19th to 21th century I consulted (EB too) refered his birth in June but all in January. So I changed the month.

Talk:Jew (disambiguation)

message: Deleted:The word due is sometimes pronounced the same as "Jew".andThe word sequence "do you" in a question is sometimes colloquially pronounced the same as "Jew".Perhaps, though I question the relevance of any of this to a written media such as Wikipedia.
One might also argue that Hispanics pronounce "you" as "jew" and it would be equally irrelevant. I doubt anybody is coming to this page on that basis and would require disambiguation.

", however two of the sites that this article references (Golden Silents and IMDB) say that they /are/ related and the other one doesn't mention it.  Is there a way whoever made this can cite where they got the information that they are not related?  Some sites that agree with the author, for example, can be found at The Virtual Dime Museum or at Silent Era .  I'm going to go ahead and use those citations on the main page.
