Galileo Galilei
[edit]Hi... FWIW, I agree that the picture is okay in Galileo Galilei, but please be aware of the wp:BRD cycle. You boldly added an image. Someone reverted it. Now it's supposed to be your turn to discuss this on the article talk page, but instead you reverted again without a comment. Deviating from this cycle often leads to wp:edit warring and tends to result in users being wp:blocked. I though you might be interested in this. Cheers - DVdm (talk) 13:21, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
- The Galileo portrait was added for educational purpose, as the best picture of Galileo providing his real look. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Webaugust (talk • contribs) 14:49, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
- Please indent your talk page messages as outlined in wp:THREAD and wp:INDENT and sign all your talk page messages with four tildes (~~~~). Thanks.
- Sure, but that was not my point. My comment was about how we collaborate here. - DVdm (talk) 14:55, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
- I understand, thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Webaugust (talk • contribs) 15:10, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
- No problem. Meanwhile I notice that you undid yourself ([1]). Good. As this is a good portrait indeed, I have added it in another article at Galileo affair#List of artistic treatments. Cheers - DVdm (talk) 16:06, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

WikiProject Visual arts
[edit]Hi Webaugust,
I saw your work on articles related to visual art and wanted to say hello, as I work in the topic area too. If you haven't already, you might want to watch the WikiProject Visual arts talk page, which is a noticeboard for Wikipedia's fine arts coverage. It's a great place to ask questions, collaborate, discuss style/structure precedent, and stay informed about content related to artists and fine arts. Take a look for yourself!
And if you're looking for other juicy places to edit, consider adopting a cleanup category or participating in one of our current formal discussions.
Feel free to say hi on my talk page and let me know if these links were helpful (or at least interesting). Welcome to Wikipedia! Hope to see you around. czar 23:34, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
