Why do they say unknown artist- on file description? [1] [2] [3] [4] Hafspajen ( talk) 06:45, 24 October 2014 (UTC) http://artsconnected.org/resource/78510/forest - Citation: At the young age of twenty-seven, Katayama Bokuyo_ was awarded the grand prize at Japan's annual Imperial Juried Exhibition in 1927. The following year, he submitted this painting showing a weasel nearly hidden in a tangled bed of flowering fishmint (dokudani) deep in the forest. The judges were so impressed that he was given the status of mukansa, literally "non-vetted," meaning that henceforth any painting he submitted to the annual exhibition would be automatically included. Bokuyo_ championed a style of painting collectively known as nihon-ga (literally, Japanese style painting) to distinguish it from Western-style oil painting, which was gaining popularity in Japan. Nihon-ga artists used traditional subjects, formats and materials, but their approach often reveals some influence from the West. Here the logical recession into deep space and subtle color variations to suggest atmospheric depth are the result of Bokuyo_'s exposure to Western art. Nevertheless, the dramatically tipped ground-plain, reduction of motifs, and precisely applied mineral pigments are elements of traditional painting.
In 2007 the dealer Jeffrey Cline sold a screen by Katayama Bokuyo (1900-37) to a major US museum for around $90,000 at the Haughton International Asian Art Fair in New York. Explaining that almost no us museums have 20th-century works of the pre-war period, Cline said, 'This is the first year we have seen significant interest for this material from US curators and we are now talking to five American institutions.'

PS: johnny JOHNNY, you were eating SUGAR AGAIN!! - c, c,c,c - Hafspajen ( talk) 14:43, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
Good evening, Crisco. Now I'm working on the article mentioned above, and I have stuck on a sentence "Western motives, played in the native environment with specifically Sundanese decor". I don't know any Dutch, but via Google Translate tool, "Western motives" may refer to the script. In the Indonesian version, the word "decor"is corresponded by the word "suasana", which may interpreted as atmosphere - According to an online dictionary, the word "decor" can mean by the stage setup. (My friend also try to translate this by this definition; the word is not contained in my vintage Anglo-Chinese dictionary.) That is contradictory. Can you clarify what is the real meaning of the sentence? Much thanks,
(P.S. Hope you will not be annoyed as I always have to find an advice from you - my Indonesian proficiency is very poor. I wonder if it's better to change the platform of discussion to Facebook - this is my FB site.)-- Spring Roll Conan ( Talk · Contributions ) 10:19, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
Crisco, I wish you a happy halloween, but I feel sorry that the specialist we encountered last time have complained that the Chinese version is not even qualified to appear in the DYK column. Though in zhwp DYK standard doesn't require a close link of each paragraph with the topic, he put down his comment that the paragraph "Legacy" is totally off-topic, and he belittle the value of this article as a FA, which sounds exhausting. Maybe I should change the paragraph's name in the Chinese version as "Consequences" etc., or do nothing - when one of my colleagues have done what I'm doing, the expert doesn't even come out to oppose - the structure is merely the same. That's double standard, right? You don't need to reply, I just want you to know what happens. -- Spring Roll Conan ( Talk · Contributions ) 17:28, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Crisco, Queue 3 is down to six hooks—Fram just removed one—and it just so happens that the October 29 entry under special occasions (Locus iste) is perfect for that queue. It does mean that the hook should be given full scrutiny, promoted directly to queue, but if it hasn't been done when you see this, I hope you'll take a look. Many thanks.

Hi Crisco, as always I come to you as my expert about copyright/licences! I know that if an image was published in a book in 1908, it would be US PD, but is that status effected if the artist did not die until 1954? The file in question is this one.

Are you up for a discussion of his railroad photos? Many are held by the Denver Public Library and they don't offer any type of PD license for them. Some time ago, there was quite a heated discussion about whether the photos had to go because of not being PD; we still have quite a few in areas where so far there's been no PD photo to replace them.
Perry was a real train buff; those who take rail photos as a hobby often swap photos they've taken with others, and he was no exception. The hobbyists most often had/have their photos printed on postcard forms and use some kind of ink stamp for their ID. I found this recently and spent some time online at DPL trying to match it; wasn't successful, so this is an Otto Perry photo that is not part of the DPL holdings. From the ink stamp and the postcard stamp box, this was taken during the time frame Perry listed and is his work. Bottom line--can we think about using this and others as PD since we can see the card back and so on? In the case of possible DPL duplicates, I'd think having the back of the card would be enough proof that the photo didn't come from DPL without permission. Thanks! We hope ( talk) 13:48, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
Crisco, I've been asked to "opine" on this nomination, but it's in an area I don't feel comfortable opining, dealing with a ghost-written autobiography's claims, many improbable or likely enhanced. The old "merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative" approach, apparently, but on steroids (and before there were steroids). If you're willing, I'll let you read the arguments (the positions are clear from the most recent icon, I think) and weigh in. Thanks. BlueMoonset ( talk) 16:17, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

Crisco, I was hoping you could please take a look at this one and perhaps get it moving again. I can't, because I proposed an ALT hook; my idea of an interesting hook and the nominator's seem to differ by quite a bit. At any rate, you'll note the possible issue with my wording, since I don't have access to a key offline source, and much of the article is based on newspaper stories or ads, which makes any attempt at an article narrative quite difficult. I'll let you decide where it stands and what to do. Many thanks. BlueMoonset ( talk) 05:33, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
Hey, do you think I can borrow you for a minute to take a look at this very small request edit asking that a couple sentences be added to keep the page up to date? user:Guy Macon just did a few of my request edits and I realized this one slipped my mind - it's been in the queue for 6 weeks.
Also as an FYI for the McKinsey page, user:FreeRangeFrog seemed to be suggesting here that I might be better off putting together a GA-ready copy/pasteable draft than handling things piecemeal. I explained that many of the corresponding edits may be controversial, but did put together an annotated draft here with all the remaining edits I think would be needed to make it GAN-ready (once reviewed I can remove the annotations to make it copy/pasteable).
Regarding images, I was pretty impressed with the results of the photoshoot I did of various Purina dog food products, but they decided to try to get their own professional photography approved for Creative Commons. (I thought mine were better :-p) CorporateM ( Talk) 16:12, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Hey Crisco_1492, thank you so much for nominating my shot of the Long-billed curlew at Drakes Beach for featured picture. It was not an easy shot: after leaving our home very early, I spent quite some time at the beach finding good subjects. Then, almost two hours later and with the first groups of day trippers arriving at the beach, I came across this curlew. Now, shooting at a beach means you really need to get low and probably will get wet… (see my blog post that features this image). And someone on the ground making funny moves attracts dogs… Well, let's just assume, I'm lucky that I got this shot ;-) So, thanks again for picking and nominating it. This means a lot to me. -- Frank Schulenburg ( talk) 00:18, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Sir Crisco_1492 just for curiosity - If Paul D N Hebert could be on Wiki for the discovery of DNA Barcoding that he did not do, or did after Sunil Kumar Verma as evident from the above facts (and you too agree that the process that he discovered is notable); why not Dr Sunil Kumar Verma be there? Sorry if I asked something wrong!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Educationtemple ( talk • contribs) 11:43, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
Sir
Crisco_1492 - And the process he used was a significant discovery done by him 14 years ago that has changed the way world investigate wildlife crime and test the authenticity of food! All the sources I gave cite his name as inventor of this significant process. It may qualify the un deletion of his page on wiki which may just state that " Dr Sunil Kumar Verma is known for the discovery of Universal primer Technology for Wildlife Identification (2001) (references to the above) which is also known as 'DNA Barcoding' (with reference to the link to GOI India Press Information Bureau site) as named by Hebert et al in 2003 (with a link to Heberts page). If you permit, I can create this page simply with the above lines. --

I provided you other information after that on the awards etc of SK Verma. I am sure you have seen them. These are prestigious awards and only few Indians have got them. Together, I assume that the notability criteria WP:ANYBIO could be met and the profile of SK Verma could be recreated along with a specific page of Universal Primer Technology invented by him in 2001. If you agree to this, I can do both (i) recreate small biography of S K verma (ii) create a Dedicated page on Universal Primer Technology. Hope you can take a decision on these and give your recommendations specifically @ Crisco_1492 . — Preceding unsigned comment added by Educationtemple ( talk • contribs) 13:08, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
Sir, Crisco_1492 please don't be angry. I am also trying to help and contribute for the wiki community like your kind self. Since you were the admin who deleted the page of S K Verma, hence this discussion. If you can not take decision about undeletion of S K Verma's biography, I shall take it to review with your permission. Once the biography is recreated, I shall be happy to develop a page on this advance technology. Is it OK? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Educationtemple ( talk • contribs) 13:18, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Sunil Kumar Verma. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Educationtemple ( talk) 16:38, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
Hey Crisco. It seems I made a pretty significant error in the Beneful article. The New York Times says their revenue was $141.7 million over four weeks ending September 29, 2012, whereas I made it sound like this number was annual revenue. Unfortunately I have not found any updated sources with an annual revenue number (Nestle doesn't break it down in their annual reports either) to correct it. Taking 141.7 in one month and multiplying by 12 months = closer to $1.7 billion in revenues.
I was wondering how you think we should handle it? We could just delete it, use WP:CACL to say "about" or "more than" a certain number or maybe something else I haven't thought of. I also have sources that call them a "billionaire brand" (ie more than $1 billion in annual revenue). CorporateM ( Talk) 22:34, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

Hey, you're an active, accomplished user who seems to have done a lot of reviews. I was wondering if you'd be able to give a review to Tony Hawk's Underground, an FAC that the delegates say they'd rather not pass without feedback from editors uninvolved with video game articles. It already has three supports and the other requisite reviews; I don't think it should be too bad. Just, I mean, if you have time, silahkan. Tezero ( talk) 17:28, 11 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi, would you please consider suddenly deciding to run for arbcom, and then hurriedly submitting a candidacy? Candidacies go to Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2014/Candidates within the next 48 hours or so. But you can refine it after that.
I ask this because (1) you would almost certainly be elected, (2) you would do a good job if elected, (3) you are capable of dealing with the rather onerous position, (4) you might help to broaden viewpoints at the "top" of the Wikipedia hierarchy while in the role, since you have a much more global outlook than the average candidate.

I wouldn't mind so much, except there's A - no valid reason for deletion - a small amount of humourous content is, after all, allowed. B. I don't know where my copy is.
Hell, it was actually in use on the page about not needing pictures of your dick as one of the jokes. But, no, humour has no place, and we will ignore all rules to destroy it. Adam Cuerden ( talk) 04:35, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
Hello Crisco 1492. This message is part of a mass mailing to people who appear active in reviewing articles for creation submissions. First of all, thank you for taking part in this important work! I'm sorry this message is a form letter – it really was the only way I could think of to covey the issue economically. Of course, this also means that I have not looked to see whether the matter is applicable to you in particular.
The issue is in rather large numbers of copyright violations ("copyvios") making their way through AfC reviews without being detected (even when easy to check, and even when hallmarks of copyvios in the text that should have invited a check, were glaring). A second issue is the correct method of dealing with them when discovered.
If you don't do so already, I'd like to ask for your to help with this problem by taking on the practice of performing a copyvio check as the first step in any AfC review. The most basic method is to simply copy a unique but small portion of text from the draft body and run it through a search engine in quotation marks. Trying this from two different paragraphs is recommended. (If you have any question about whether the text was copied from the draft, rather than the other way around (a "backwards copyvio"), the Wayback Machine is very useful for sussing that out.)
If you do find a copyright violation, please do not decline the draft on that basis. Copyright violations need to be dealt with immediately as they may harm those whose content is being used and expose Wikipedia to potential legal liability. If the draft is substantially a copyvio, and there's no non-infringing version to revert to, please mark the page for speedy deletion right away using {{db-g12|url=URL of source}}. If there is an assertion of permission, please replace the draft article's content with {{subst:copyvio|url=URL of source}}.
Some of the more obvious indicia of a copyvio are use of the first person ("we/our/us..."), phrases like "this site", or apparent artifacts of content written for somewhere else ("top", "go to top", "next page", "click here", use of smartquotes, etc.); inappropriate tone of voice, such as an overly informal tone or a very slanted marketing voice with weasel words; including intellectual property symbols (™,®); and blocks of text being added all at once in a finished form with no misspellings or other errors.
I hope this message finds you well and thanks again you for your efforts in this area. Best regards-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC).

Hi Crisco! If you can spare the time and are interested, I would like to invite you to review and comment on the Spokane, Washington FAC. You are a seasoned editor and reviewer and your input and critical eye would be very appreciated. The FAC hasnt received any new input in a week since one of the other reviewers is busy or sidetracked at the moment so I wanted to see if I could take this time to get other people to comment on it.

I noticed your surprise that this article passed GAC. The review was actually performed by a user that has recently joined the wikiproject that collaborated to improve the article. The review was double checked as part of the GA Cup, however I do still have some reservations about the impartiality of the review. I think your concerns are well founded, and that perhaps it would be best to request a Wikipedia:Good article reassessment, to make sure it meets the GA criteria. -- Nick Penguin( contribs) 07:44, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

Wikistalking is not OK. Making two reviews on articles created by a user that you have an obvious issue with within a time span of 10 minutes at the moment is just very weird.

Crisco, it occurred to me that you might want to know about Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Breakin' Dishes (2nd nomination), since you were the reviewer of its GAN back in 2011, and the fact that it is a GA is a factor in the discussions.

Crisco, I was wondering whether you could revisit this and see whether the POV issues have been dealt with to your satisfaction. I know that some of the text that Panyd objected to still exists, but the phrasing has been revised here and there. I rather doubt "leading ladies" is appropriate, for example, but if that's an isolated incident it can be fixed. Thanks for checking. BlueMoonset ( talk) 05:24, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

Why do they say unknown artist- on file description? [1] [2] [3] [4] Hafspajen ( talk) 06:45, 24 October 2014 (UTC) http://artsconnected.org/resource/78510/forest - Citation: At the young age of twenty-seven, Katayama Bokuyo_ was awarded the grand prize at Japan's annual Imperial Juried Exhibition in 1927. The following year, he submitted this painting showing a weasel nearly hidden in a tangled bed of flowering fishmint (dokudani) deep in the forest. The judges were so impressed that he was given the status of mukansa, literally "non-vetted," meaning that henceforth any painting he submitted to the annual exhibition would be automatically included. Bokuyo_ championed a style of painting collectively known as nihon-ga (literally, Japanese style painting) to distinguish it from Western-style oil painting, which was gaining popularity in Japan. Nihon-ga artists used traditional subjects, formats and materials, but their approach often reveals some influence from the West. Here the logical recession into deep space and subtle color variations to suggest atmospheric depth are the result of Bokuyo_'s exposure to Western art. Nevertheless, the dramatically tipped ground-plain, reduction of motifs, and precisely applied mineral pigments are elements of traditional painting.
In 2007 the dealer Jeffrey Cline sold a screen by Katayama Bokuyo (1900-37) to a major US museum for around $90,000 at the Haughton International Asian Art Fair in New York. Explaining that almost no us museums have 20th-century works of the pre-war period, Cline said, 'This is the first year we have seen significant interest for this material from US curators and we are now talking to five American institutions.'

PS: johnny JOHNNY, you were eating SUGAR AGAIN!! - c, c,c,c - Hafspajen ( talk) 14:43, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
Good evening, Crisco. Now I'm working on the article mentioned above, and I have stuck on a sentence "Western motives, played in the native environment with specifically Sundanese decor". I don't know any Dutch, but via Google Translate tool, "Western motives" may refer to the script. In the Indonesian version, the word "decor"is corresponded by the word "suasana", which may interpreted as atmosphere - According to an online dictionary, the word "decor" can mean by the stage setup. (My friend also try to translate this by this definition; the word is not contained in my vintage Anglo-Chinese dictionary.) That is contradictory. Can you clarify what is the real meaning of the sentence? Much thanks,
(P.S. Hope you will not be annoyed as I always have to find an advice from you - my Indonesian proficiency is very poor. I wonder if it's better to change the platform of discussion to Facebook - this is my FB site.)-- Spring Roll Conan ( Talk · Contributions ) 10:19, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
Crisco, I wish you a happy halloween, but I feel sorry that the specialist we encountered last time have complained that the Chinese version is not even qualified to appear in the DYK column. Though in zhwp DYK standard doesn't require a close link of each paragraph with the topic, he put down his comment that the paragraph "Legacy" is totally off-topic, and he belittle the value of this article as a FA, which sounds exhausting. Maybe I should change the paragraph's name in the Chinese version as "Consequences" etc., or do nothing - when one of my colleagues have done what I'm doing, the expert doesn't even come out to oppose - the structure is merely the same. That's double standard, right? You don't need to reply, I just want you to know what happens. -- Spring Roll Conan ( Talk · Contributions ) 17:28, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Crisco, as always I come to you as my expert about copyright/licences!

Are you up for a discussion of his railroad photos? Many are held by the Denver Public Library and they don't offer any type of PD license for them. Some time ago, there was quite a heated discussion about whether the photos had to go because of not being PD; we still have quite a few in areas where so far there's been no PD photo to replace them.
Perry was a real train buff; those who take rail photos as a hobby often swap photos they've taken with others, and he was no exception. The hobbyists most often had/have their photos printed on postcard forms and use some kind of ink stamp for their ID. I found this recently and spent some time online at DPL trying to match it; wasn't successful, so this is an Otto Perry photo that is not part of the DPL holdings. From the ink stamp and the postcard stamp box, this was taken during the time frame Perry listed and is his work. Bottom line--can we think about using this and others as PD since we can see the card back and so on? In the case of possible DPL duplicates, I'd think having the back of the card would be enough proof that the photo didn't come from DPL without permission. Thanks!

Crisco, I've been asked to "opine" on this nomination, but it's in an area I don't feel comfortable opining, dealing with a ghost-written autobiography's claims, many improbable or likely enhanced. The old "merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative" approach, apparently, but on steroids (and before there were steroids). If you're willing, I'll let you read the arguments (the positions are clear from the most recent icon, I think) and weigh in. Thanks. BlueMoonset ( talk) 16:17, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

Crisco, I was hoping you could please take a look at this one and perhaps get it moving again. I can't, because I proposed an ALT hook; my idea of an interesting hook and the nominator's seem to differ by quite a bit. At any rate, you'll note the possible issue with my wording, since I don't have access to a key offline source, and much of the article is based on newspaper stories or ads, which makes any attempt at an article narrative quite difficult. I'll let you decide where it stands and what to do. Many thanks. BlueMoonset ( talk) 05:33, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
Hey, do you think I can borrow you for a minute to take a look at this very small request edit asking that a couple sentences be added to keep the page up to date? user:Guy Macon just did a few of my request edits and I realized this one slipped my mind - it's been in the queue for 6 weeks.
Also as an FYI for the McKinsey page, user:FreeRangeFrog seemed to be suggesting here that I might be better off putting together a GA-ready copy/pasteable draft than handling things piecemeal. I explained that many of the corresponding edits may be controversial, but did put together an annotated draft here with all the remaining edits I think would be needed to make it GAN-ready (once reviewed I can remove the annotations to make it copy/pasteable).
Regarding images, I was pretty impressed with the results of the photoshoot I did of various Purina dog food products, but they decided to try to get their own professional photography approved for Creative Commons. (I thought mine were better :-p) CorporateM ( Talk) 16:12, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Hey Crisco_1492, thank you so much for nominating my shot of the Long-billed curlew at Drakes Beach for featured picture. It was not an easy shot: after leaving our home very early, I spent quite some time at the beach finding good subjects. Then, almost two hours later and with the first groups of day trippers arriving at the beach, I came across this curlew. Now, shooting at a beach means you really need to get low and probably will get wet… (see my blog post that features this image). And someone on the ground making funny moves attracts dogs… Well, let's just assume, I'm lucky that I got this shot ;-) So, thanks again for picking and nominating it.

Crisco, can I ask you to take a look at this one and see whether the issue raised is such as to require further work or sourcing, or if the point Piotrus is making is germane in this situation? It's been sitting for four weeks at stalemate, and I'd like to get it moving again. Many thanks. BlueMoonset ( talk) 05:24, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
The last time I saw these paintings was in 2007 where they were hanging in the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute (where I attended art school in 1974-75), in Utica, NY, which is the owner. They're rather large, each painting approximately 6' x 5'. They're among my most favorite. Timeless and Beautiful!! :-) -- Gwillhickers ( talk) 23:45, 8 November 2014 (UTC)

Sir Crisco_1492, this is an official statement by Science Minister Dr Jitendra Singh after a through discussion and fact finding investigations. Then only it appeared on the website of Press Information Bureau of Government of India.
As for the coverage on this matter on various independent media: Please see all links below on this discovery from 2002 onward: Dr Sunil Kumar Verma and Dr Lalji Singh of CCMB did this discovery together in the year 2001

Sir Crisco_1492 Dr Sunil Kumar Verma never want to be famous as an individual as I know him since last 16 years or so. It is all about the 'Process' (as you have mentioned) i.e. the discovery that he made in 2001 with the name 'universal primer technology' that is worth notable on wiki. Would appreciate if you create an article on the same......and if possible edit the already existing pages on this such as DNA Barcoding with links to above material and possible the US patent 7141364 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Educationtemple ( talk • contribs) 11:24, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
Sir Crisco_1492 just for curiosity - If Paul D N Hebert could be on Wiki for the discovery of DNA Barcoding that he did not do, or did after Sunil Kumar Verma as evident from the above facts (and you too agree that the process that he discovered is notable); why not Dr Sunil Kumar Verma be there? Sorry if I asked something wrong!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Educationtemple ( talk • contribs) 11:43, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
Sir
Crisco_1492 - And the process he used was a significant discovery done by him 14 years ago that has changed the way world investigate wildlife crime and test the authenticity of food! All the sources I gave cite his name as inventor of this significant process. It may qualify the un deletion of his page on wiki which may just state that " Dr Sunil Kumar Verma is known for the discovery of Universal primer Technology for Wildlife Identification (2001) (references to the above) which is also known as 'DNA Barcoding' (with reference to the link to GOI India Press Information Bureau site) as named by Hebert et al in 2003 (with a link to Heberts page). If you permit, I can create this page simply with the above lines. --

I provided you other information after that on the awards etc of SK Verma. I am sure you have seen them. These are prestigious awards and only few Indians have got them. Together, I assume that the notability criteria WP:ANYBIO could be met and the profile of SK Verma could be recreated along with a specific page of Universal Primer Technology invented by him in 2001. If you agree to this, I can do both (i) recreate small biography of S K verma (ii) create a Dedicated page on Universal Primer Technology. Hope you can take a decision on these and give your recommendations specifically @ Crisco_1492 . — Preceding unsigned comment added by Educationtemple ( talk • contribs) 13:08, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
Sir, Crisco_1492 please don't be angry. I am also trying to help and contribute for the wiki community like your kind self. Since you were the admin who deleted the page of S K Verma, hence this discussion. If you can not take decision about undeletion of S K Verma's biography, I shall take it to review with your permission. Once the biography is recreated, I shall be happy to develop a page on this advance technology. Is it OK? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Educationtemple ( talk • contribs) 13:18, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Hey Crisco. It seems I made a pretty significant error in the Beneful article. The New York Times says their revenue was $141.7 million over four weeks ending September 29, 2012, whereas I made it sound like this number was annual revenue. Unfortunately I have not found any updated sources with an annual revenue number (Nestle doesn't break it down in their annual reports either) to correct it. Taking 141.7 in one month and multiplying by 12 months = closer to $1.7 billion in revenues.
I was wondering how you think we should handle it? We could just delete it, use WP:CACL to say "about" or "more than" a certain number or maybe something else I haven't thought of. I also have sources that call them a "billionaire brand" (ie more than $1 billion in annual revenue). CorporateM ( Talk) 22:34, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

Hey, you're an active, accomplished user who seems to have done a lot of reviews. I was wondering if you'd be able to give a review to Tony Hawk's Underground, an FAC that the delegates say they'd rather not pass without feedback from editors uninvolved with video game articles. It already has three supports and the other requisite reviews; I don't think it should be too bad. Just, I mean, if you have time, silahkan. Tezero ( talk) 17:28, 11 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi, would you please consider suddenly deciding to run for arbcom, and then hurriedly submitting a candidacy? Candidacies go to Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2014/Candidates within the next 48 hours or so. But you can refine it after that.
I ask this because (1) you would almost certainly be elected, (2) you would do a good job if elected, (3) you are capable of dealing with the rather onerous position, (4) you might help to broaden viewpoints at the "top" of the Wikipedia hierarchy while in the role, since you have a much more global outlook than the average candidate.

Hello Crisco 1492. This message is part of a mass mailing to people who appear active in reviewing articles for creation submissions. First of all, thank you for taking part in this important work! I'm sorry this message is a form letter – it really was the only way I could think of to covey the issue economically. Of course, this also means that I have not looked to see whether the matter is applicable to you in particular.
The issue is in rather large numbers of copyright violations ("copyvios") making their way through AfC reviews without being detected (even when easy to check, and even when hallmarks of copyvios in the text that should have invited a check, were glaring). A second issue is the correct method of dealing with them when discovered.
If you don't do so already, I'd like to ask for your to help with this problem by taking on the practice of performing a copyvio check as the first step in any AfC review. The most basic method is to simply copy a unique but small portion of text from the draft body and run it through a search engine in quotation marks. Trying this from two different paragraphs is recommended. (If you have any question about whether the text was copied from the draft, rather than the other way around (a "backwards copyvio"), the Wayback Machine is very useful for sussing that out.)
If you do find a copyright violation, please do not decline the draft on that basis. Copyright violations need to be dealt with immediately as they may harm those whose content is being used and expose Wikipedia to potential legal liability. If the draft is substantially a copyvio, and there's no non-infringing version to revert to, please mark the page for speedy deletion right away using {{db-g12|url=URL of source}}. If there is an assertion of permission, please replace the draft article's content with {{subst:copyvio|url=URL of source}}.
Some of the more obvious indicia of a copyvio are use of the first person ("we/our/us..."), phrases like "this site", or apparent artifacts of content written for somewhere else ("top", "go to top", "next page", "click here", use of smartquotes, etc.); inappropriate tone of voice, such as an overly informal tone or a very slanted marketing voice with weasel words; including intellectual property symbols (™,®); and blocks of text being added all at once in a finished form with no misspellings or other errors.
I hope this message finds you well and thanks again you for your efforts in this area. Best regards-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC).

Hi Crisco! If you can spare the time and are interested, I would like to invite you to review and comment on the Spokane, Washington FAC. You are a seasoned editor and reviewer and your input and critical eye would be very appreciated. The FAC hasnt received any new input in a week since one of the other reviewers is busy or sidetracked at the moment so I wanted to see if I could take this time to get other people to comment on it.

Crisco, just a note that the DYK queues are empty again, and the next promotion to the main page is a little over five hours from now. If you could check when you see this, and perhaps promote one or two of the four preps currently filled, that would be a great help. Many thanks, and thanks also for closing that RfC on QPQs the other day. BlueMoonset ( talk) 04:47, 22 November 2014 (UTC)

Hey, Crisco! I was wondering... Is there something I can set up somewhere to automatically notify me whenever an SVG file is put up for FP candidacy on the English Wikipedia? I don't want any to slip past me, but I don't always remember to check. KDS4444 Talk 20:55, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

I would really appreciate if you would do the Balinese dance descriptions in this: I have a lot to do, and have to have it all done by Thursday morning. Adam Cuerden ( talk) 03:11, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
Could you get http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/the-collection-online/search/436570?rpp=30&pg=1&ft=Nativity&pos=5 and http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/the-collection-online/search/436571?rpp=30&pg=1&ft=el+greco&pos=7 and http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/the-collection-online/search/652416?rpp=30&pg=1&ft=el+greco&pos=16 ?
The first already has a page set up for it at File:El_Greco_(Domenikos_Theotokopoulos)_-_The_Adoration_of_the_Shepherds_(ca._1605–10)_-_Metropolitan_Museum_of_Art.jpg, the other two haven't been uploaded yet. Thanks! =)

On 25 November 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Panyembrama, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the Balinese dance form panyembrama (pictured) was designed as a secular welcoming dance, but is now also performed to welcome the gods? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Panyembrama. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

Dear Chris - well, I always thought you were a glutton for punishment and now there's further proof, with the news that you've agreed to be put forward here as part of a new TFA team. You, Brian and Dank will be a great combination, I'm sure. Good luck. Bencherlite Talk 12:36, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

I just wanted to make sure I did these correctly (reasoning that New Caledonia is a French territory)-- Godot13 ( talk) 03:29, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
I noticed your surprise that this article passed GAC. The review was actually performed by a user that has recently joined the wikiproject that collaborated to improve the article. The review was double checked as part of the GA Cup, however I do still have some reservations about the impartiality of the review. I think your concerns are well founded, and that perhaps it would be best to request a Wikipedia:Good article reassessment, to make sure it meets the GA criteria. -- Nick Penguin( contribs) 07:44, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi, On my reviews, I don't mean to mix up licenses; I'm just looking for a quick way to say, "Image is free." Should I just write that? "Image is free-license"? Thanks, Yoninah ( talk) 11:07, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
A new account's first edit was to create this page. As it doesn't appear to be a Featured picture I have deleted it under CSD:G2 as a test page. If I'm wrong please feel free to reinstate. Nthep ( talk) 13:29, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
Well, not much I can do, if he doesn't respond on the question about the source considering Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/File:Saint Francis of Assisi in Ecstasy-Caravaggio (c.1595).jpg. He was editing on commons since I posted on his page - and must have seen my question - and yet he never responded - and he has an user-box where it is stated he can speak English. And I guess since the picture doesn't have a proper source it might be nominated for deletion to, maybe he will react than. Hafspajen ( talk) 10:43, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

Wikistalking is not OK. Making two reviews on articles created by a user that you have an obvious issue with within a time span of 10 minutes at the moment is just very weird. I do agree with you on the reviews issues at hand but lets not take it to the level of Wikistalking. I am not shy of telling you what I think and I will take the issue futher if it should escalate. Thanks.-- BabbaQ ( talk) 15:19, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

Crisco, it occurred to me that you might want to know about Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Breakin' Dishes (2nd nomination), since you were the reviewer of its GAN back in 2011, and the fact that it is a GA is a factor in the discussions. Apologies for not letting you know sooner. BlueMoonset ( talk) 16:14, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

Crisco, I was wondering whether you could revisit this and see whether the POV issues have been dealt with to your satisfaction. I know that some of the text that Panyd objected to still exists, but the phrasing has been revised here and there. I rather doubt "leading ladies" is appropriate, for example, but if that's an isolated incident it can be fixed. Thanks for checking. BlueMoonset ( talk) 05:24, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
