Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Romanesque House in Wrocław, from its old location at User:Krzylig/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Sam Sailor 14:52, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Stanislaw Raczynski

Hi Krzylig. Can you assert if Draft:Stanislaw Raczynski is something that can be sourced? Sam Sailor 10:39, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

KL (talk) 12:38, 25 September 2018 (UTC) Hi Sam, the article is probably written by his son, who runs this mini-website: http://www.raczynski.com/gallery/raczart.htm This artist was known in PL and his works are reguralry sold on art auctions and there are links to his bio there. Some of these have been linked in the draft and the info comes mainly from auction catalogues. The Wiki draft article needs to be edited more with regards to notes.[reply]

AfC notification: Draft:Romanesque House in Wrocław has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Romanesque House in Wrocław. Thanks! Legacypac (talk) 18:30, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. The Romanesque House and the "FOTO-GEN" gallery based there are one the most important places in Polish cultural scene. There are no resources in English to support this. All the articles I know about this place are in Polish. I have added more notes. Hope the article will be published. Many thanks.

It's normal to add one's signature immediately after one's comment, not immediately before it. It's OK to cite sources that are in Polish (or German); it's OK to cite works published on paper but not on the web; and of course it's OK to cite books and journals in Polish (or German). However, if you cite a journal or book, be careful to say precisely which part you're citing. -- Hoary (talk) 04:27, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(UTC)Hoary Hi Hoary, I am not sure to what you are refering to in the first part. Please explain. I am aware that I can put notes that are based on articles written in languages other than English. The problem is based on explaining the people who accept articles, and do not speak these languages, what is in there. And it takes long time to explain details and validity of the cited sources. I was train how to make notes in Uni but I am not very familiar yet with Wikipedia CMS. There is some forbearence needed in this matter (please) but I will learn more. Thank you for your time and contribution. KL (talk) 10:58, 10 November 2018

(i) This is your user talk page and, within reason, you can do whatever you like on it. However, it's normal to "sign" (add your name and a timestamp) a message at its end, not at its beginning; and this is something that you should do on any talk page other than this one (and I suggest that you do it on this talk page as well). (ii) You're citing a book that's obviously an encyclopedia of the city. You do not have to explain what this is, for the benefit of people who (like me) aren't able to read Polish. (However, you should say just which part of the encyclopedia you're citing -- probably the title and author of the particular entry/entries.) (iii) I've never been to Wrocław but I believe that it's a city of considerable architectural significance. I imagine that there'll be studies (in Polish) of its architecture intended for the architecturally minded, or guidebooks (in Polish) to its architecture intended for the more intellectual and curious of tourists, or books that are some kind of hybrid of these two. You'd be welcome to cite these. And, if you're lucky enough to be able to read German, also prewar books about "Breslau" -- books that might describe the building as it was before serious damage. (iv) You're doing pretty well with "MediaWiki" (as the CMS is called). Don't get disheartened! -- Hoary (talk) 12:13, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hoary 1) Forgot to add last time... yes - I noticed this later (silly indeed) and will be doing this right. 2) Yes, there is a very rich bibliography. Will add more books in the future. 3) I am able to read German but I feel lucky that this valuable skill is not needed here anymore on obligatory level (ups, I have missed a chance to put this sentence with a date of 11th November) ;) Will try to investigate the subject more in the future, as well as, perhaps, Czech sources that I am able to read too. 4) Thank you but I need to learn a lot more. I wish it was as easy as eg. Wordpress. Many thanks & best regards.KL (talk) 23:48, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I quite understand the lack of enthusiasm for using prewar German-language sources. There's the difficulty of reading Fraktur, the difficulty of a foreign language, and the possibility of contamination by a repellent ideology. Anyway, it's so long since German was eclipsed in Wrocław that I suppose just about anything of worth in the older German-language sources would by now appear (reconsidered and corrected) in more authoritative Polish-language sources. However, there's at least one thing that might make older German-language sources very appealing. The article "Photograph copyright (Germany)" tells us: "According to § 72 Abs. 3 UrhG, copyrights for most photographs and pictures expire fifty years after their first publication." So if you find desirable photographs in a book published in Germany in, say, 1932, then copyright expired in 1982 or earlier, and you can upload them to Wikimedia Commons as "public domain". (I don't know offhand about books published in "Breslau": are they covered by German or by Polish copyright law? If the latter, see Copyright law of Poland, though I'm sure there are fuller treatments in Polish.) -- Hoary (talk) 01:47, 12 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hoary Yes, it is a beautiful city with very rich heritage and complicated history. I recommend visiting it. Unfortunately, I am not able to make as much research as would wish to undertake, but will try to expand this starter article as much as I can, leaning to the photography side. There were important shows organised in the mentioned photographic gallery, just need to prepare more notes. Thank you for info regarding the German copyright law. It is very useful. Thank you again for this nice and the substantive conversation. Best regards KL (talk) 21:57, 13 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Romanesque House in Wrocław

Your draft for Romanesque House in Wrocław seemed a little rough, but good enough for a starter. I therefore "moved it to article space" (turned it an article). -- Hoary (talk) 02:27, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hoary Thank you. It will be edited very soon with more notes. KL (talk) 10:58, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Stanislaw Raczynski

Draft:Stanislaw Raczynski looks very interesting. Don't abandon it! -- Hoary (talk) 04:02, 10 November 2018 (UTC) Yes, indeed. But this is not my article. I have just edited it a bit more. KL (talk) 11:00, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
