The Music Barnstar
For all of your excellent work in creating articles on the operas of Josef Mysliveček I award you the music barnstar. Keep up the great work! I look foreword to more opera related articles from your pen. Best. 4meter4 ( talk) 21:56, 11 August 2010 (UTC) reply

Thank you for your recent additions to the article, which is to be Today's Featured Article on 4 September. I do have a few concerns:-

  • In your footnote 28 you say "It is a notable shortcoming of studies such as Zaslaw (1991), Solomon (1995), Gutman (1999), and Sadie (2006) that they do not take into account the importance of Mysliveček as a stylistic model for the young Mozart and intimate friend of Leopold Mozart during all three of Mozart's trips to Italy in the face of the clear evidence contained in the Mozart correspondence." This statement, as it stands, reads as POV. If Freeman said it, it should be couched in terms such as "Freeman claims that..." – he does not have preeminence among Mozart scholars – and there should be a specific citation to support this wording, especially such assertions as "intimate friend" etc. In the meantime I have withdrawn the footnote, pending establishment of its credentials.
  • You have added to the text: "Both Leopold and Wolfgang found his [Mysliveček's] personality irrestistably charming...," This is cited to Freeman, but it is very much at odds with what other scholars say (e.g. Gutman, pp. 372–75, Sadie 422–23). Wolfgang found the first meeting very traumatic. Another case, perhaps, of Freeman's view contrary to all others?
  • I have reduced the size of the Mysliveček image you added (and removed another to make room for it - we must not overcrowd with images). However, the image lacks details of its source and creator. These details should be added to the image file. I have changed the licence from PD-old to PD-art.

Comments before 4 September would be appreciated. Brianboulton ( talk) 13:52, 1 September 2010 (UTC) reply

(Later) I have now completed my readthrough of the Mozart in Italy article prior to its TFA. I was surprised to see the disproportionate extent of Mysliveček-related material you had inserted. Whatever view Freeman has, it is plain from the vast amount of existing Mozart scholarship that Mysliveček was a relatively minor influence, and the article should reflect this. I have removed much of the material - the article is about Mozart's experiences in Italy, of which his interactions with form only a small part, and many of your insertions were inconsequential and uncited. If you wish to press the case for more about Mysliveček, please use the Mozart article's talkpage for further discussion of the matter. Brianboulton ( talk) 15:44, 1 September 2010 (UTC) reply

The article Bourbon Baroque has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not notable band.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on Friends of the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{ hang on}} at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. AndrewWTaylor ( talk) 19:56, 30 December 2010 (UTC) reply

Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Empress Dowager Cixi‎, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Dougweller ( talk) 05:39, 3 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Ezio (Mysliveček) (1777). When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted.

Margaret Tudor

It is fascinating that you have removed referenced material from this article, and claimed that it is 'esoterica,' whilst leaving the longer sections of unreferenced material untouched. Personally, I judge that historical materials with a creditable source are more valuable than those with no references, irrespective of content.

For instance, the selections of surviving Scottish poetry (which you deleted) indicate the climate of propanganda in Scotland at the royal marriage, in its original terms. Similarly, Margaret's itinerary, which records the places in England where she stayed where there was ceremony for the Scottish queen, also shows the machinery of Tudor rule. It might also be claimed that readers of wikipedia with an association those places might find the itinerary of interest. Unoquha ( talk) 01:11, 29 October 2011 (UTC) reply

Consider this a warning:

You appear to be edit warring at United States presidential election, 2012. You should not repeatedly revert people just because you have a version of the article you prefer. Please read Wikipedia:Edit warring for a description of why this behavior is harmful. Please stop and take your issues to the article talk page without restoring your preferred text. Continuing to edit war is something that an administrator may block you for. I don't want you to be blocked, which is why I am giving you this heads up. Change the way in which you try to change articles, and instead of edit warring, discuss the matter and come up with a consensus or compromise on the article talk page instead.

Split infinitives

I think saying "split infinitive corrected" in edit summaries is presumptuous. Implying that split infinities are incorrect takes too strong a stance and is biased and misleading (see Split infinitive#Current views. I'd prefer a more neutral edit summary along the lines of "split infinitive avoided" or something like that if you wish to unsplit infinitives in articles. Just a thought.

Wikipedia and copyright

Control copyright icon Hello Vlastimil Svoboda, and welcome to Wikipedia.

While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing.

DON GIOVANNI synopsis

Здравствуйте.

Your edit on seriousness of Don G's crime causing damnation is ANALYSIS, which does not belong in the "Synopsis" section. It is also ORIGINAL RESEARCH (your personal analysis without a reliable source) which is ABSOLUTELY FORBIDDEN by Wikipedia. (Synopses do not need sourcing; the work itself is the source, BUT by the same token synopses should contain ONLY plot-summary, not analysis.)

Your entry on the setting (maybe Seville, maybe not) should probably be somewhere other than the synopsis. If you're gonna put it in the synopsis, then it should be much shorter--maybe one line: "Setting: A city in Spain, possibly Seville". (Brevity is the soul of wit.) If you want to discuss the different reasons for believing the setting is or is not Seville, as you did, that would belong in a different section.

Regards, HandsomeMrToad ( talk) 16:11, 23 January 2017 (UTC) reply

UPDATE:
1. The one-sentence summary of the synopsis is appropriate and does not require a source; the opera itself is the source for a synopsis and for the very short summary of the synopsis. Therefore, not OR. (This is Wikipedia's policy on plot summaries and OR.) In contrast, an interpretive analysis of what makes the Don worthy of damnation is NOT summary, does NOT belong in the synopsis, and DOES require a source to avoid being OR, because the libretto itself does NOT discuss the question of which of the dirty Don's many dirty deeds merits damnation. If you can find a reliable source which supports your interpretive analysis of this question, it might be appropriate for the article, just not in the synopsis. Go for it! Be bold! But find a source first.


2. Thank you for putting the interesting Seville/not-Seville discussion elsewhere other than in the synopsis, and for sourcing it. No problem now, significantly improves the article! Very nice. My only beef was with your putting it in the wrong section before, and not sourcing it.


Best wishes, HandsomeMrToad ( talk) 03:58, 24 January 2017 (UTC) reply
PS, if we're gonna thrash these issues out further, we should probably discuss them in a new section on the DonG TALK page. HandsomeMrToad ( talk) 03:58, 24 January 2017 (UTC) reply
FURTHER UPDATE: See the DonG TALK page for further comments on your most recent edit. Your discussion of WHY the Don is damned is NOT synopsis, and you are supposed to ASSUME GOOD FAITH and not make personal attacks. But read my comment on the TALK page. HandsomeMrToad ( talk) 04:20, 24 January 2017 (UTC) reply


Edit-warring

Edit-warring, such as you are doing in the SYNOPSIS section of the Don Giovanni article, is forbidden by Wikipedia. You can be rebuked, temporarily suspended, or even permanently banned from Wikipedia for it, which would be a shame. You need to go to the Don Giovanni TALK page Talk:Don_Giovanni#Introductory_sentence_in_SYNOPSIS and explain your position, as I have done, and seek consensus, from other editors, and then go along with the consensus. Repeatedly reverting another user's edits without seeking consensus on the TALK page, is EDIT-WARRING, forbidden by Wikipedia. I don't want to have to report you to the moderators for this. So please stop doing it. Thanks! HandsomeMrToad ( talk) 17:15, 25 January 2017 (UTC) reply
