Hi Healthps. Unfortunately I've reverted your addition to the article on its face, can you raise the matter on talk and we will go through. I will be gone for the next several hours, but can discuss later. Best. Ceoil (talk) 15:48, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the delay Healthps; have read and would like to include an abbreviated version, but maybe as written was not in the encyc voice, and too apart from the article overall (ie weave it in better). Note I am not an admin or the boss of wikipedia or anything (haha), just advising on how this might best be framed. Sorry if this is frustrating. Ceoil (talk) 21:13, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the modified edits; much better now. Sorry hadn't realised you had few edits and were beginning; I forget sometimes how difficult it is for new people to get used to this place, us old timers have developed such hard skin that reverting is water off a duck's back, I suppose unfortunately for everybody else. I hope you have not been disheartened or put off, I be especially disappointed to think I'd seen off another Fall fan. Ceoil (talk) 23:27, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Healthps, I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Robert McClenon (talk) 21:28, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Healthps, please understand that Wikipedia has a concept called (somewhat misleadingly) notability. A topic is said to be "notable" if there are multiple independent published reliable sources that discuss the topic in some depth. As per our policy on biographies of living people this and other requirements are enforced more strictly on articles about living people than on most other articles. To demonstrate notability, a source must be independent of the subject. This means that the subject's own papers and writings do not do so, nor do interviews with the subject unless there is enough discussion in the reporter's voice, nor do statements from the subject's employer, family members or close associates. Sources must discuss the subject in some depth, this means that mere directory entries or lists or passing mentions do nothing to establish notability -- they simply don't count. And to help with notability, sources must be reliable -- this means that blogs and self-published works normally do not count. Nor do online fora, or other wikis, or other Wikipedia articles. Wikipedia:Notability (academics) discusses the specific case of professors and other academic people, and outlines specific ways in which their notability can be established. Currently, none of the cited or linked sources in Draft:Elizabeth A. Spencer help to establish notability, and until the draft does demonstrate notability, it cannot be accepted as an article. Not every established academic is notable, and not every academic will have a Wikipedia article. What is called "run-of-the-university" or "average-professor" level academics will not have articles, although they may be good and worthy individuals. Please do not resubmit the draft unless you have made some attempt, at least, to add independent sources that will demonstrate notability. 18:16, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

Cho Young-dong moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Cho Young-dong, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 TT me 13:58, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello
There seem to be two main concerns, which I address here by highlighting material already in the wikipedia article.
More in depth coverage I'm puzzled by this. This is a compact encyclopaedia article not an in depth review. It includes: a biography; his professional career; a long list of his exhibitions including South Korea, USA, Italy, France, and India; and examples of his work. There are some sensitivities to Cho Young Dong's biography relating to Korean politics in the 1980s. It is not really necessary or suitable to include these in an encyclopaedia article. But they did have an impact on reporting about his career. Having said that, from the account in Wikipedia it is clear that he is a notable Korean artist - his professorship, his Directorship of the KAS, the award of the Camellia medal, the range of exhibitions, and his inclusion in museum collections.
Citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG The factual material in the Wikipedia article are all covered by citations (see below) and I plan to add more. None of them are interviews. There are 3 citations to support the information in the article:
Sang-yong, Shim (1997). Introduction 11th Cho Young Dong solo exhibition. Seoul: Gallery Sang.
This is an essay on the painter by a recognised Korean art historian. I am including a link for ease of reference http://art.snu.ac.kr/en/members/shim-sang-yong/
Cho, Young Dong. Contemporary artists in Korea. Seoul: Misool Gongron. 1989
This is a book length study of the artist
"서울아트가이드 Seoul Art Guide". www.daljin.com. Retrieved 2023-02-10.
This is a high quality source, produced by the Kim Daljin Art Institute, Seoul.
To summarise, I have highlighted the elements of the article which address the shortcomings you specify, and hope you will review your decision in the light of these. Healthps (talk) 19:51, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Photo copyrights on Cho, Young Dong

[edit]

Hello! I have been doing some minor clean up on the Cho, Young Dong draft and I noticed a problem that you need to be aware of. Wikipedia and Wikipedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously because they can present legal problems. I noticed that the three images of his paintings, to which I assume he still owns the copyrights, as his original work, were uploaded as your "own work", with a CC 4.0 license. That license,[1] means that you have "given away" the artist's copyrights into perpetuity, and are releasing his work into the world where anyone can now legally able to share these images, change them (and claim them as their own), alter them in any way. In Korea, copyright law states that the original owner (creator) of the work owns the copyrights for 50 years.

Did the artist transfer the copyrights to you before his death? If this is the case, there is a procedure (OTRS) that must be followed to prove that the copyrights were transferred to you. (Or if he transferred them to his heirs or gallerists, did they legally transfer them to you such that you are claiming them as your own work and had permission to release them with that license? In that case there still must be proof of transfer of copyright). If he released his work before his death into the public domain, we would again need proof of that per the OTRS ticketing system. If you are not the legal owner of his copyright (even if you happen to own the paintings), the photographs unfortunately will have to be deleted because of copyright violation, see: WP:COPYVIO.

If you are wanting to include an image, I suggest uploading a "fair use" image of a "historical portrait" of the artist within fair use specifications (low resolution, small sized approx. 240x380 pixels). If you do not know how to do that I can help with this. In some cases, a "fair use" image of an artwork can be added to an article if it is within fair use specs, and there is a significant amount of sourced encyclopedic content devoted to that specific artwork itself.

I'm sorry to have to share this news with you, I know it's a lot of information to take in. Please reach out if you have questions, and if I don't know the answer, I will try to find another editor to help, or you can ask at the WP Teahouse, or WP Help desk, or Commons Help Desk.

Hello, the photos of the paintings were taken by his daughter. I assume she owns the copyright of the photos at least and is happy for their inclusion. If she posts the photos onto wikimedia and I use them would that be acceptable? Healthps (talk) 08:24, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, your word that she has released the copyrights must be verified by the WP:OTRS team, now called WP:VRT, Volunteer Response Team. Here is a link to the VRT for creative Commons: [2].
She needs to follow the instructions on that page regarding licensing permissions.
She needs to submit a ticket to VRT, stating that she is the legal copyright owner, who agrees to release his work. There is an email address on the Commons VRT team page that will instruct her further (they can also refer her to another language-specific team member if needed). They will then review the ticket submitted, and if there is evidence of a valid permission, they will mark the image files as reviewed, otherwise the image files will be deleted.
General inquiries about the validity or status of a VRTS ticket can be made at the VRT Noticeboard.
You will need to find out from the Commons VRT team if she needs to prove that her father transferred his copyright (which lasts 50 years) to her, or that he agreed to release his work under a free license during his lifetime, and what might be needed. There is additional information at the various links above. And the VRT Team can help you and her further.
I hope this is helpful information. I know it is a lot to take in and that these matters are very complicated, but these rules exist to protect the work of artists, designers, and the like. Netherzone (talk) 16:31, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi thanks, I'll ask her to do this. I'm not sure she will but I'll ask her. She's in Korea at the moment so it may take a while. Thanks for your help and interest! Healthps (talk) 18:00, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello! While reviewing drafts I noticed that there is a duplicate of Draft:Cho Young-dong, which is Draft:Yongdong cho. Which one do you want kept?
The other will need to be deleted, but it can be "deleted" as a redirect, meaning the alternate spelling of his name could "point" to the actual article, therefore the redirect page would not have any content but would automatically direct readers to the actual article.
Also, I'm wondering if you have heard back from the sister regarding the photograph copyright permissions. Unfortunately, the files can't stay on WP if there is an incorrect copyright license because of copyright law. Netherzone (talk) 23:36, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello
the Cho Young-dong page please. The photographer (daughter) is in Korea at the moment. She should be back by the end of the month. I believe she will have more material on her father then including new photographs, and I can talk her through the issues then. She has been the owner of the paintings since her father's death. I guess that makes her the copyright holder (?) of the art works as well as the photographer.
Anyway, best wishes. This may take some time. Healthps (talk) 09:12, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
