Gubaidulina photo

If you want to contribute a photo to Wikipedia, as you did for Sofia Gubaidulina, you must license the photo under the GNU Free Documentation License. You cannot add material and keep a standard "all rights reserved" copyright. CRCulver 17:01, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi Mr Culver, If I understood you right, you want me to remove the symbol ©. Just this? Yours, Dmitri

No, I want--and Wikipedia requires--that you add a comment to the photo's page announcing that you are putting the photo under the GFDL. You can keep the copyright, but you must license it under the GFDL so that Wikipedia can use the photo and it is freely redistributable. CRCulver 00:41, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Yes. Yesterday I received a personal message from his publishers MUSIKVERLAG M. P. BELAIEF:

Фонд им. М. П. БЕЛЯЕВА и издательство MUSIKVERLAG M. P. BELAIEFF со скорбью сообщают о смерти выдающегося русского композитора князя Андрея Михайловича Волконского, скончавшегося во вторник 16-го сентября 2008 года в Aix-en-Provence (Франция). С. Черепнин В. Суслин

Kirkcaldy transliteration

Hi Dimitri, I notice you've started a Russian Kirkcaldy stub. You may know already but the "l" in Kirkcaldy is silent (a remnant of the original Pictish name) so I'm not sure if it's appropriate to have the "л" in the Russian transliteration of the name. I don't know if Kirkcaldy already has a "conventional" Russian spelling as "Керколди", despite the pronunciation, but as it is a relatively small town I would have thought maybe not. Just thought you'd like to know. Mutt Lunker (talk) 13:06, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your note. In the Big Soviet Encyclopedia there is an article: Керколди (Kirkcaldy), город и порт в Великобритании, в Шотландии, у залива Ферт-оф-Форт... etc. In fact William Kirkcaldy of Grange in the Russian translation of Stephan Zweig's "Maria Stuart" (1935) [М., "Художественная литература", 1991. Пер. с нем. - Р. Гальперина] is spelled as Сэр Уильям Керколди Грейнджский. So, I think it is already a "conventional" Russian spelling. Regards -- Dmitrismirnov (talk) 15:41, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, interesting to know. Mutt Lunker (talk) 21:22, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Здравствуйте!

Сегодня, создав статью о Николае Николаевиче Каретникове и подыскивая интервики, с удивлением обнаружил, что здесь статья благополучно живёт уже больше трёх лет. Из истории правок вышел на Вас. Я и не знал, что в Википедии есть такие большие люди :)

Почему бы Вам не вернуться в ru-wiki? Там так много белых пятен красных ссылок, неточностей, недописанностей и заготовок, и так мало народу... а профессионалов от искусства так и вообще нет.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Yakov Frenkel.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Yakov Frenkel.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only," "non-derivative use" or "used with permission," it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. [1], and it was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19, or is not used in any articles. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:

• state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions.
• add the relevant copyright tag.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Your inquiry

Hi, Dmitry! Thank you for your inquiry and welcome to Wikipedia! You have good points, and it is also good to know that you are the person about whom the article is about.

The changes I made were strictly procedural. Dmitry Smirnov itself is a disambiguation page, the sole purpose of which is to provide links to articles which readers can reasonably be expected to search under "Dmitry Smirnov". The spelling of such a disambiguation page's title is chosen in accordance with our romanization of Russian guidelines, and that choice is independent of the spellings of the actual articles listed on the disambiguation page. Also, we have certain rules as to how the disambiguation pages should be formatted, which is why I formatted the entry about you the way I did. I'll be happy to explain this further, if you like.

Regarding the actual article about you, the spelling choice depends on what is actually used in English. Currently the article has a number of links to pages in English all of which use "Dmitri", and "Dmitri" is the spelling you yourself prefer. That is quite sufficient for our purposes, and this is also something I missed when making my edits earlier today, which is why I have just moved the page to Dmitri Smirnov (composer). As for the "composer" part, while there may be other composers by this exact same name, we currently don't have articles about any of them (and not all of them may even be notable enough to have an article written about them). If that ever changes, the article about you will most certainly be moved to a form using your patronymic, but we don't do such moves preemptively. I hope this resolves the matter. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any further concerns—I'll be happy to assist!—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); March 22, 2011; 18:18 (UTC)

Image of Tommaso Traetta

Hi Dmitri, in May 2006 you should have uploaded this image of Tommaso Traetta, which is now very widely used throughout Wikipedia:.
Since I have not been able to find out where that image is drawn from, I wonder if you could be so kind as to tell me your source. Many thanks in advance. --Jeanambr (talk) 13:47, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

It was about 6 years ago when I found this on Internet. Unfortunately I do not remember exactly the source, but it could br something like: http://www.ranker.com/pics/N2255755/1 or: http://www.freebase.com/view/en/tommaso_traetta Dmitrismirnov (talk) 15:06, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Image of Modest Tchaikovsky

Hi there. Some time back you uploaded this image of Modest Tchaikovsky.

I am currently revising the article on Modest's brother Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and would possibly like to use this picture. However, without knowing the photographer or where the photo was first printed, I cannot determine whether it would fall under Public Domain in the US. If you had any of this information of remember where you found this photo, it might help me in my search. Please contact me on my talk page. Thanks. Jonyungk (talk) 01:50, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

I do not remember exactly which exactly old book I scanned it from... I am sure that it is in public domain because the photo was made more than 100 years ago. Modest lived in 1850–1916. The photo is printed practically in all Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's biographies with no indication of photographer or precise date, but it looks that it was taken in the 19th century.

Summarise the quotes like this

One well-known category of drawings is fully documented. This comprises the so-called "visionary heads", drawn by Blake from what he claimed were visions of a variety of historical characters who appeared at his command and "sat" for their portraits… It seems clear to me that Varley took this curious pastime a great deal more seriously than did Blake. To the latter it was a satisfaction to employ his faculty of vivid memory and imagination in the production of interesting characterizations of a varicty of people... Blake sometimes drew them with such conviction that Varley seems to have regarded them as actual portraits.

— Sir Geoffrey Keynes

Blake claimed that among his visions he saw different historical characters, who would sit for him to draw their portraits. The biographer Keynes observed that Varley took these visions and the drawings that Blake produced from them so seriously that he regarded them as genuine portraits of the historical characters. These drawings are known collectively as the "visionary heads".

The following parts of the quote are entirely superfluous to fact:

comprises so-called

Variety

Curious pastime

a great deal more

To the latter it was a satisfaction to employ his faculty of vivid memory and imagination in the production of interesting characterizations of a varicty of people.. (opnion)

sometimes

such conviction

Get at what the author is actually saying, and loose the rest, unless it conjures the atmosphere of the event first hand (which this doesn't).

Amandajm (talk) 14:03, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

I afraid it is incorrect and much worse that the quotation itself. Please leave as it is. Dmitrismirnov (talk) 14:06, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

You don't seem to have got the message that you cannot lift slabs of someone else's writing and make an article. Rewrite it in your own words. Don't use what I have written. Summarise in the way that uses the information. Keynes isn't writing first hand. He has researched, and is adding opinion. Amandajm (talk) 14:11, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

I left my answer to you at Talk:Visionary Heads. As I told you, I did my best, but you as anyone can change it as you wish. However please do not spoil. Dmitrismirnov (talk) 14:17, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Blake images from Google Art

Hey Dmitrismirnov! Thanks for all of the great work that you have been doing lately. FYI, the images that you have been pulling from Google Art Project may not be as representative of the physical objects as similar ones from the William Blake Archive. Since starting the internship with the archive, I have been given some insight into the process for uploading scans and copies for the William Blake Archive and for Google Art. The Blake Archive colour corrects the scans so that they can compare to the eye's interaction with them, while on the other hand Google has a reputation of not always correcting or ensuring faithfulness to the original work. Take for example the two different scans of Jerusalem Cope E, Object 41, the Blake Archive's is more similar to watercolour, while the version you uploaded from Google Art project has a much more granny prominent dark colors (File:Jerusalem_The_Emanation_of_The_Giant_Albion,_copy_E,_object_41_Detail.jpg). The first seems to be more accurate, considering the original medium. Also, since WP:Blake is being supported by the Blake Archive and they have a better Academic reputation then Google Art, it would probably be within best courtesy to upload files from the more authoritative and affiliated organization when they have scans available (which is not the case with works like the Rossetti Manuscript). Hope that thought helps and keep up the good work! Sadads (talk) 22:48, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

I agree. In fact I took these files from the Blake Archive source=http://www.blakearchive.org/exist/blake/archive/object.xq?objectid=jerusalem.e.illbk.41&java=no The detail (cropped) picture looks a bit different because I added contrast to make better readable the inverted text on the left Dmitrismirnov (talk) 23:05, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Cool beans, the templates with the Google Art Project Templates must have been throwing me off, and I didn't read the description closely enough on the cropped version. Thanks again for all the great work! Sadads (talk) 14:42, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

Your contributed article, The Fly (Blake)

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

Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at The Fly (poem) – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Poems from songs!

Great work on the last couple articles about the Songs of Innocence and of Experience! Keep up the good work. While you are working on those though, would you mind leaving Laughing Song (Songs of Innocence), "Night" (Songs of Innocence), "Spring" (Songs of Innocence), "The Little Boy Lost" (Songs of Innocence) and "The Little Boy Found" (Songs of Innocence) uncreated? The poetry class I am working with this semester is going to be writing those articles for an assignment, and we should have articles up within the next month or two. Some of the articles already created are rather sparse, and could be a good alternative to those poems. Cheers! and Happy editing, Sadads (talk) 20:56, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

Copy/Paste plagiarism at Beulah (Blake)

Hey Dmitrismirnov, I just got a chance to look at Beulah (Blake) and noticed that much of the material was lifted directly from various sites, and not properly attributed (see the changes I made). I would strongly recommend taking a look at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Plagiarism_on_Wikipedia to see why we don't directly lift language and ideas from other author's work. I don't remember much of your earlier Blake related work doing this kind of direct copy/paste from source materials. Without parphrasing, quoting or some other type of rewriting with attribution, plagiarism both decreases the credibility of Wikipedia and opens it up for Copyright Violations. Were you aware that you were doing this? Sadads (talk) 04:56, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

I understand the problem. Thanks for fixing this. Now it is much better. Dmitrismirnov (talk) 08:32, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

Can you go back through your earlier work, and make sure that you don't have moments of plagiarism like that. It opens up your work to criticism and/or reversion similar to the type proposed by User:Ottava Rima on The Mental Traveler. I always try to preempt the problem by making sure that I summarize without any copying from the original source, when writing my draft articles.

Also, on an unrelated note, I responded at Talk:The Mental Traveler, Sadads (talk) 15:17, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Deletion discussion about Andrew Solomon (Blake scholar)

Hello, Dmitrismirnov,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Andrew Solomon (Blake scholar) should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andrew Solomon (Blake scholar) .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,
