WP Countering Systemic Bias in the Signpost
[edit]Comment below is reposted. Djembayz (talk) 22:58, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
- The WikiProject Report would like to focus on WikiProject Countering Systemic Bias for a Signpost article. This is an excellent opportunity to draw attention to your efforts and attract new members to the project. Would you be willing to participate in an interview? If so, here are the questions for the interview. Just add your response below each question and feel free to skip any questions that you don't feel comfortable answering. Multiple editors will have an opportunity to respond to the interview questions, so be sure to sign your answers. If you know anyone else who would like to participate in the interview, please share this with them. Have a great day. –Mabeenot (talk) 00:52, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
Incomplete lists
[edit]You mentioned List of compositions for piano duo, I met today String sextet repertoire, - I guess such lists have some value even knowing they will never be "complete". They might be more useful if sortable. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:54, 15 February 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Gerda! Did you see the one reference? It was to IMSLP - meaning only scores that they have (silly reference). I don't see the value in such lists - users would be better told to go to a comprehensive library - and even there you can't be sure you have all the works of a particular medium. People spend months/years writing books attempting to include all the works of a medium. I think it's silly to do it on WP unless one really tries to make it "almost" complete. -- kosboot (talk) 00:00, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Konzentrationslager
[edit]While I am well aware of their extermination functions, both Auschwitz and Majdanek were Konzentrationslager in title as well as also functioning in that capacity. Is there something in the context of that film that requires the term "death camp", for example does it focus only on victims being gassed?Hoops gza (talk) 21:24, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
- I've seen the film many times and even did a shot-by-shot analysis and even have a copy of the musical score. What I'm saying that today, in 2014, Wikipedia is making a very clear distinction between Nazi concentration camps and Extermination camp. If you read the article on concentration camps, it's about political prisoners--that's not what the film is about. It mentions political prisoners, but all the 1955 footage is from Auschwitz and most of the b/w film footage is also from Auschwitz. -- kosboot (talk) 21:38, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
Berge a woman
[edit]Is it possible? The first name sounds feminine, with the "ee" at the end, and, looking for a source for the film music thing I found this, which says she was virtually the only woman in the profession of writing silent film music:
- Rick Altman (2007). Silent Film Sound. Columbia University Press. pp. 356–. ISBN 978-0-231-11663-3.
That might make interesting material to expand the article a teensy bit, but it's essential to figure out whether Berge was a man or a woman. Here's another source suggesting woman:
- Jack Winsor Hansen (1 January 2005). The Sibyl Sanderson Story: Requiem for a Diva. Amadeus Press. pp. 104–. ISBN 978-1-57467-094-3.
— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 16:22, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, when I first started working on the person I assumed it was a woman. But that he was married and that many of the little notices I found specifically mentioned "him" I think it's unquestionably a man. -- kosboot (talk) 16:35, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
- BTW, thanks for that Sanderson reference - I will incorporate that. -- kosboot (talk) 16:38, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
- I see. I misread the Sanderson thing. The "she" there refers to Sanderson, not Berge. And Altman just has it wrong, clearly.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 16:55, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
- OK, it'll be good to go as soon as you can add an inline citation for the film music thing.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 17:33, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
- Argh - I'm editing right now and just lost a passage due to an edit conflict. -- kosboot (talk) 17:38, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
- OK, it'll be good to go as soon as you can add an inline citation for the film music thing.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 17:33, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

- kosboot, I'm sorry to hear that. All you need to do is post that you're withdrawing on the nomination page itself; we'll take care of the rest. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:11, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
Drexel 4175 not a GA
[edit]I removed the "GA" marking from Talk:Drexel 4175. We have a WikiProject that organizes the evaluation of nominated articles for good article status. Chris Troutman (talk) 14:43, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
- The editor who reviewed the DYK suggested I submit it for GA status. -- kosboot (talk) 15:08, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
- Indeed, you should. The instructions are at WP:GAN/I. In order to nominate it, add {{subst:GAN|subtopic=music}} to that talk page. A GA reviewer will (in time) start the review and post any comments or recommended changes before acceptance. Please ask if you have any questions about the process. Alternatively, you can always ask a member of WikiProject Classical Music for an individual review for B-class before nomination to GA. Chris Troutman (talk) 15:21, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

Greg Kohs and WikiConference USA
[edit]Dear Kosboot: Is this report accurate: WikiConference USA bans critic from open meeting? If it is accurate do you know if a response from the conference organizers is forthcoming? I won't spend time explaining exactly how upsetting this is and how very bad it looks on its face until the accuracy of the report is confirmed. It looks really bad, though, and I really hope there's a plausible explanation. Note that I'm not asking about the rejection of Kohs's presentation, but only about the allegation that he was barred from an event touted as "open to all participants, regardless of previous level of involvement with Wikipedia or the Wikimedia projects. We welcome the curious, the skeptical, and others wishing to engage in meaningful conversation about the Wikimedia movement in the United States, free culture and digital rights, advocacy and outreach, community building, and technology." I posted the same question on Newyorkbrad's talk page, but he declined to respond substantively. I am also leaving it on the talk pages of the other conference organizers.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 14:45, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
e-flux Article
[edit]Hi Bob, I'm wondering if you can take a look at the article User:Morelcasares/e-flux draft 2. User:Morelcasares has asked me to review this article draft, which is written for the eventual article, e-flux. My concern, beyond the biasing language which can be changed is that the article is too long and that some sections like 'publications' are a little too specific and that the length is not proportional to the content. I'm going to be helping this user out today so let me know if you get around to looking at this. Thanks, OR drohowa (talk) 13:52, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

Francis Tregian the Younger

[edit]Hello! I am Julia Sattler and I am in Professor Hughes Theater History Class. Thank you in advance for helping us out this semester. I have a question about the time stamp. Mine does not seem to be syncing up with the correct New York Eastern Time. Is that normal? Do you know how I can change that? Jsattler07 (talk) 15:22, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi there Jsattler07! (Generally people refer to others by their username, keeping their real name private if desired.) You can change the timestamp by going into your preferences (one of the selections on the top right of the screen after you've logged in). In Preferences, there should be eight tabs; the second one is "Appearance." Select that one, and the third "box" within that tab should be "Time Offset" where you can set your local time as "America/New York." Then click save at the bottom left of that tab page and you should be ok! -- kosboot (talk) 16:54, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
Hello from Brooklyn College
[edit]Hi Kosboot. Thank you for helping us out this semester. I have tried my hand at editing an article and I am excited to be a part of this grand project. I have to say, I've been stumped on how to use the Talk Page for days!! Then I remembered to think simple, and remembered the video where the woman said that you always ignore the little EDIT button. Wouldn't you know... Anyway, I look forward to the next few months. Best, OrangeZabbo (talk) 17:48, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Welcome to Wikipedia, OrangeZabbo (it's amusing to think of what an orange zabbo would look like). Yes, your talk page--as well as others, such as mine--is how you communicate with other users. Every article has its own talk page--that's where people can discuss the article. In any case, I'm looking forward to working with you and helping out on Wikipedia--not just for the next few months, but hopefully beyond that. :). -- kosboot (talk) 18:45, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hello again Kosboot. Amy and I were discussing a project I'd like to take on, and she suggested I run it by you. There is a Downtown Theater, Soho Rep., whose Wiki page is severely lacking. I would like to work on improving their page as their past productions and staff are integral to the Downtown Theater scene's evolution over the past 30 years. I can gain access to their archives for some of this information, much can be found at the Performing Arts Library documenting past productions, and of course the NY Times has been reviewing their work and writing articles about their staff for many years. Since 1975 their theater has changed location multiple times, been run by influential Artistic Directors who have moved on to have significant international careers, and most recently (under Sarah Benson) have been produced back-to-back-to-back critically acclaimed and award winning work, making them a pinnacle location for boundary pushing theater in New York City. What do you think? Is this a good idea? Do you think I will have enough legit sources? Thanks for your help. OrangeZabbo (talk) 14:49, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi OrangeZabbo (apologies for not getting back to you sooner!) Actually I think the current article on Soho Rep is a good start (compared to many organizations that have just a few lines). With a 30-year career and extensive coverage in the press, my guess is that the challenge one of curation - going through all the available material to come up with a narrative of the history of the organization, its goals and perhaps any influence it has had (and other notable features of the organization). Note that even though you may have access Soho Rep's archives, Wikipedia requires that any source used must be published or widely available (see WP:SOURCE - especially the note about unpublished sources). Given the plentiful amount of information (almost too plentiful), you might want to limit the scope to just the history or other aspect of the organization that interests you. Let me know what you think. (Note that responses begin with a colon; each successive response adds another colon so that your response should begin with three colons). kosboot (talk) 00:57, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi, Kosboot. If you want to use American dates and spellings/idioms in the Manuel Klein article, I would support you, but you can't change just one date, you have to change all of them, plus implement American spellings/idioms throughout, plus change the templates at the top to US instead of Br. Let me know if you do this, and I'll check it for you. All the best! -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:11, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

Citing Foreign Language Sources
[edit]Hi Kosboot! Are there any restrictions on citing sources not in English? Because I'm Japanese and I'm planning to edit an article on Noh, I'm thinking it'd be more effective to use Japanese source materials in addition to English. Decafespresso (talk) 16:03, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
- There are no such restrictions—you can cite sources in any language, although you should probably transcribe it into typical characters. (And bravo for doing Noh which I studied a bit about years ago!) kosboot (talk) 18:29, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you so much! Could you elaborate on transcribing into typical characters that you mentioned? Do you mean citing titles and names phonetically using English alphabet rather than actual Japanese? Decafespresso (talk) 20:54, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
- My knowledge Japanese is not very great, but I do know that there is a standard way of transcribing the characters. Alternatively, what you might want to do is indicate the Japanese name and then follow it with a transcription, like: 邦楽ジャ-ナル, Hōgaku jānaru, Monthly music magazine, hogaku journal, (..rest of citation). Does that help? kosboot (talk) 05:58, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

I've posted them over on the event talk page, could you please respond with any data you have, or "Don't know" for the answers you do not have, within the next week? If you have any questions, please do contact me through my talk page or at abittaker at wikimedia dot org. Thanks so much, this really helps our program learning and capacity building for future editathons! --Abittaker (WMF) (talk) 01:40, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

You are invited to join the the Wikimedia NYC community for our upcoming wiki-salon and knowledge-sharing workshop in Manhattan's Greenwich Village.
Afterwards at 8pm, we'll walk to a social wiki-dinner together at a neighborhood restaurant (to be decided). We hope to see you there!--Pharos (talk) 07:11, 27 November 2014 (UTC) |
