User talk:Hiart

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia.

I noticed that you added a few galleries to pages, and in most cases your additions looked just right. I also saw the gallery at Carlo Crivelli and that has 62 images on it now. Personally I like his work, specially The Virgin Annunciate that you added. But some of the other images are small and overlapping reproductions and the general approach in Wikipedia vs Wikimedia is to put a sampling of the "best" images in Wikipedia and build a separate gallery within Wikimedia, e.g. please see: Commons:Rembrandt in Wikimedia. And please see Rembrandt within Wikipedia which has a fraction of the images on Wikimeda commons. You can add a link at the top of the Crivelli gallery to say:

For a larger gallery, please see: Carlo Crivelli gallery

And you can build your own gallery in Wikimedia anyway. y suggestion would be to do this, else someone else will sooner or later just do it anyway, and may not do it as nicely. I have been adding galleries the same way to places such as Assisi and Perugia but in Assisi there was resistance from user Attilios against the gallery and I just moved it to commons and kept one Lorenzetti image. But in cases such as Perugia, a small gallery actually looks pretty good anyway.

Anyway, I am also "all for galleries" but know that within Wikipedia vs Wikimedia, there has to be a balance whereby Wikipedia has less images, and the best images, else there is no point in Wikimedia. All you need to do is create a Wikimedia account and then you are all set. I look forward to seeing an other nice galleries you add. Cheers, and again welcome to Wikipedia.
