DYK for Mozart in Italy

On January 20, 2009, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Mozart in Italy, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Dravecky (talk) 01:20, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations - from DYK to FA in 11 days is pretty impressive, and the article is too. Keep up the good work, Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 17:52, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm blushing

I just read your interview in the Signpost. Can I quote you on my syllabus? :) I'll get to Mozart in Italy soon! Can't wait - I'll listen to Mozart while reading it. Awadewit (talk) 02:49, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Magicpiano suggested that I contact you. If you have the time, could you please look over Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky to suggest how the article might be improved for rerating? Thanks very much. Jonyungk (talk) 19:16, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Were you able to follow through with this? Didn't hear anything back after your initial message, so wasn't sure. Jonyungk (talk) 00:21, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your offer to copyedit this article and give it some priority. If you could do this, it would be great. Jonyungk (talk) 18:24, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks again, You're doing a fantastic job. Jonyungk (talk) 01:06, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Invitation

I know you are a big Mozart fan and I am constantly impressed with your contributions in that area. I am hoping you are a fan of George Frideric Handel as well because I want to invite you to join the opera project in our push to improve all things Handel. He is going to be our editing focus for the month of March (I know it's January right now) and we hope to feature him prominently on the opera portal in April to honor the 250th anniversary of his death. We probably won't be ironing out all the details until late February as to where we will be concentrating our efforts, but the conversation is already beginning. If you're interested, have any ideas, suggestions, etc. let me know.Nrswanson (talk) 02:28, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

• Just letting you know we are talking about the March Handel push right now (see here). If there is anything you would like to contribute to let us know.Nrswanson (talk) 19:16, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Borchgrevink images

The licensing on Image:Ross Ice Shelf 1997.jpg looks fine to me. I'd be interested in seeing the old drawing, though. I'm guessing that the ice and bright light make Antarctic photography a challenge; the images often look overexposed. I haven't scanned many images yet, but I had fun with Image:Igloos.jpg, taken from Arctic Researches and Life Among the Esquimaux: Being the Narrative of an Expedition in Search of Sir John Franklin in the Years 1860, 1861, and 1862 by Charles Francis Hall (1865). To get the original to appear reasonably flat without damaging the book, I propped it on an artist's easel and photographed it with a digital camera. I had doubts that this would work, but it did.

Hi Brian, here's your dedicated translator again. :=) This article about Shackleton's last voyage was really nice and and a very interesting, moving read.

Backlog peer review The Last Castle

The Last Castle is a great movie by director Rod Lurie and Robert Redford. I have posted the article for review on January 22 and it's now in the Backlog. Would u please consider reviewing it?

Mozart

Actually, I was thinking about the earlier Mozart the other day, and am trying to get a pianist friend to record one of them. =)

As for the Mozart in Italy request - I've checked my usual archives - one seems to have gotten a big sampling of material from a Freemason - LOTS of Zauberflote, nothing else by Mozart - the other, somewhat less reliable one, didn't have anything from the right period under a credible license (I'm not going to port over a modern recording under CC-by where the performer is nowhere named; nor one of a major opera star who died only a few years ago which is claimed to be PD). I have checked the archive, a resource listing early recordings: http://victor.library.ucsb.edu/ and there IS a PD recording of the Exultate by Geraldine Farrar, but I haven't found a transfer, just knowledge that it exists

Now, that said, I've made several enquiries, and think I should be able to at least arrange a piano-and-voice recording of one or more of the works in question. If nothing else, I can give you an excellent link: http://downloadmozart.com/ has full, no-commercial-use (Drat!) but otherwise free-licensed copies of... pretty much everything Mozart ever wrote, including the Betulia Liberata, all the operas in question, and so on. We may not be able to use it on Wikipedia, but we can certainly link there. I've sent an e-mail to them about relaxing the licensing for some pieces or parts of pieces; we shall see if anything comes of that. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 16:36, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Slight correction above.

Backlog maintenance

Hi Brian, any time you want me to do the PR backlog daily updates, just let me know and I will be glad to. If you even want to set up a weekly schedule, that would be fine. I know doing it every day can get tiring, so let me know how I can help. Thanks, Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 16:23, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Rktect and I have recently spent time improving the article Chedorlaomer which involved substantial re-writes.

Thanks in advance. --FimusTauri (talk) 11:53, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Brian, I've noticed that you're copyediting a lot of FACs in addition to reviewing a lot-- thanks so much for the effort. With the backlog at FAC, every little bit helps; I appreciate it. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:16, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Rutherford peer review

I just wanted to thank you for your excellent work on this so far. I sometimes do GA reviews at the depth you're currently doing this, and I know that it's a huge amount of work, especially for an article in which you have no particular emotional investment. I also wanted to let you know that I find the vast majority of your comments helpful; the ones I haven't taken action on yet are generally because I want to do a proper job of them (condensing the lead, etc.), and not because I disagree with the suggestions.

Yes, User:PeerReviewBot archives things that have had no activity in two weeks or are at FAC or FLC or are over 30 days old with two days of inactivity. I check it each day as there are occasional errors that need to be fixed by hand. Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 00:31, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

German Translation Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration

Thanks for such a great article, which has been a perfect base for the translation into German. Maybe you want to check out the slightly different table formatting I have been using to get a better display for both tables but especially the second one. IMHO it is better to use the rowspan attribute for this table, so that you can use a single row for each of the men, while grouping the rows for the expedition name and the refs. If you like it, I can implement it for you as kind of a tribute for your work. --Cybercraft (talk) 18:15, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes Brown was failed. The last objection will take time to address. I would love any type of assistance. A co-author or co-nom would even work.

Not a problem! I am pretty new to the PR stuff, but I'd be more than happy to help in any way possible.

Roxy Ann Peak

Hi Brianboulton, I was wondering if possibly, if you are not too busy (which by the looks of it you might be), could look at Roxy Ann Peak again. You peer reviewed it last December, and I have worked on it a lot since. I'm thinking it might be ready for A-class, or maybe even FA, and would greatly appreciate if I could have your opinion.

Muntz Street

Hello. Thanks again for the helpful comments you made at the PR, though I was thrown a little by your suggesting it should go to FAC, which I hadn't even considered. I do have some experience of the process, i.e. half-shares in the successful Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/1956 FA Cup Final and very occasional comments at football club nominations, so wouldn't be too afraid of going through it again. If and when you have a minute, could you tell me if you think it a substantial enough article to take to FAC as it stands? and if so, how close do you reckon the prose is to being acceptable? thanks, Struway2 (talk) 10:55, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Re: the missing star - I think the bot's having a nap. It's already in the list of Featured Articles under the Business, economics and finance section.

SandyGeorgia is traveling and so is Raul654, so I think Raul cleaned out FAC before hitting the road.

Userbox for GA reviews

The userbox {{User Good Articles reviewed}} has been updated so that it can now link to a page in your user subspace where you keep track of all your GA reviews, if you have such a page. This can be done by adding a | and then the name of your user subpage (or subsection of your regular user page) wherever you have the template called. For example, on my user page I am using

{{User Good Articles reviewed|6|User:Rjanag/GA reviews}}

which displays as

This user has reviewed 6 Good Article nominations on Wikipedia.

There is more information on how to do this at Template:User Good Articles reviewed.

Note: If you are not interested in doing this, you don't have to do anything; the template will still work for you exactly as it does now.

Ælfheah of Canterbury

Why did you restore the word "who" in this sentence?

"Ælfmaer, abbot of St Augustine's Abbey, who managed to escape."

Doesn't make sense to me, but I maybe need to have my eyes tested again. ;-) --Malleus Fatuorum 00:36, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

The sentence is not grammatical without "who". It would be like saying: "Also at my party were Tom, Judy, Phil, and Terry went home early." Give Tony a buzz if you don't believe me. Brianboulton (talk) 00:56, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

It's not one sentence though, it's two. "Ælfmaer, abbot of St Augustine's Abbey, who managed to escape" is a complete sentence. The addition of "who" only makes sense if you see that as part of the previous sentence, which it clearly is not. I'd be exceedingly surprised if Tony were to support your insistence on adding the word "who", and given his level of RL stress I've absolutely no intention of soliciting his opinion on such a flagrant breach of English grammar; I can only suppose that you have perhaps misread the fullstop at the end of the previous sentence for a comma?

Your example would be more accurately rendered as: "Also at my party were Tom, Judy, and Phil. Terry, who went home early." Terry, who went home early what? There's something missing. --Malleus Fatuorum 01:53, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Let me double check the source and make sure that all three folks escaped or if it was just one who escaped. Yes, it is only the one abbot (Aelfmaer) who escaped, the others were apparantly ransomed. Ealdgyth - Talk 03:34, 21 February 2009 (UTC) Further, that's just a guess that the others were ransomed, the source doesn't say what happened to them. Sorry I've been out of it today, very sinusy and just not up to much. Ealdgyth - Talk 03:35, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

I think that bit was written slightly confusingly anyway, so I've had a go at rejigging it that I hope we can all agree on. --Malleus Fatuorum 04:00, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I know I write convoluted! It matches the source now, so hopefully it's all good. Ealdgyth - Talk 04:01, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

It's fine now. Sorry about the bad example, above, but there were problems accessing wikipedia pages yesterday and I responded to what I thought the article said, since I was unable to check. From my review notes I remembered it as one sentence. You can hold this against me next time I make an overconfident statement in a review. Mea maxima culpa.

Polaris expedition GA review

Hi Brian: I'm finished editing Polaris expedition and have nominated it for GA status. Wondered if you are interested in participating in the review? Zatoichi26 (talk) 17:46, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

I've retired from GA reviewing, because I've got so used to FAC now that I unconsciously review everything against FA criteria, which is unfair to prospective GAs. When it gets through that hurdle, put it on to peer review and I'll take a crack at it there. From what I've seen it looks very interesting. Brianboulton (talk) 18:00, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Mozart update

Evidently, Mozart wrote no solo piano compositions during the Italy tour. Oh, well! Will keep working on that.

However, I HAVE found someone willing to try the Piece in F for Keyboard K.33b (Mozart) and at least part of the Piano Sonata No. 1 (Mozart). He says he'd like a few weeks to practice first.

Thanks and a request

Thanks for signing up at Wikipedia:Peer review/volunteers and for your work doing reviews. It is now just over a year since the last peer review was archived with no repsonse after 14 (or more) days, something we all can be proud of. There is a new Peer review user box to track the backlog (peer reviews at least 4 days old with no substantial response), which can be found here. To include it on your user or talk page, please add {{Wikipedia:Peer review/PRbox}} . Thanks again, and keep up the good work, Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 03:04, 25 February 2009 (UTC) PS This is so you can see the spam I am giving every one ;-) Will work on the map too

Thank you for your comments and suggestions. I have addressed many of the concerns you mentioned, and I had just one or two questions for you at the FA nomination. I look forward to your response, and please let me know if there is anything else I can do to improve the article. Thanks again! --Another Believer _(Talk) 19:07, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Done! --Another Believer _(Talk) 20:05, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi there. Was just following up with you to see if you noticed the changes that were made to the article, and to see if there was anything else I could do to earn your support. Thanks again! --Another Believer _(Talk) 21:04, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

The link works just fine for me. Should we see if anyone else if having trouble opening the link? Also, I changed the sentence to the one you suggested. Much appreciated. --Another Believer _(Talk) 23:39, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Don't know if you saw my reply, but I did find some stuff. I need an email back from you to send you the pdfs. (You can't send attachments through wikipedia emails). Ealdgyth - Talk 19:53, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Sent. Let me know if you can read them. Nothing like scans of photocopies.... Ealdgyth - Talk 22:01, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
