A fact from Wilf Perreault appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 12 November 2024 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Comment: Article came from draft today after 960 days. Images have all gone though VRT. COI has been properly addressed on authors user page and though the AfC process. Might be of interest for anyone interested in Canada and the Arts.
Moved to mainspace by Dr vulpes (talk).
Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 5 past nominations.
Article is new enough (just out of draft space), long enough and appropriately referenced. The images have appropriate permissions (CC-BY-SA etc). No copyvio problems. The hook is short enough, but perhaps is missing a word or two - are they landscape painters? Is there anything surprising about this? Should the hook link to these two as well? It probably just needs a tweak Chaiten1 (talk) 17:54, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am very new to Wikipedia, but I wanted to thank you and the other Wikipedia reviewers for your hard work and sage advice for helping get this article published. Many, many thanks!

The article has way too many photos, and there are too many redundant ones that look almost exactly alike - this seems promotional to me. WP articles are not a web host WP:NOTAWEBHOST, most of these belong on the artist's personal website, or his gallery's website not in an encyclopedia. I propose trimming the number down to 5 or 6 maximum, and should illustrate points that are made about these specific works in the article text. A nice approach is to chose an image from each decade from the artist's career.
The MOS:IMAGES guideline states that: Images must be significant and relevant in the topic's context, not primarily decorative. and also states that: too many images can be distracting - images must have an encyclopedic purpose, and not simply be there to function as a "gallery" to promote the subject. The guideline advises Resist the temptation to overwhelm an article with images of marginal value simply because many images are available.Netherzone (talk) 01:54, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
