Post Office Murals
Hey Carptrash. Nice to meet you. As you probably noticed I have been adding to the list of Post Office Murals artists. I noticed that you started the list back in Dec 2011. I'm getting most of my names from http://postalmuseum.si.edu/indiansatthepostoffice/mural12.html. I'm tempted to put a reference with each artist (at least for the ones I have added and the ones I will be adding). I don't know how long the list will get or if that is a problem. Please let me know what you think. I appreciate your efforts and wish to collaborate. Ed aka Buster Seven Talk20:22, 9 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

...I did not see that you running for anything there, or elsewhere for that matter..."
Well it isn't like I didn't want to be in the running for military historian of the year, but the community hasn't nominated me for the award in years (like four or five to be precise) . I had hoped I would at least be nominated this year, but it didn't happen. I guess that's life, and its not the end of the world. At the end of the day it doesn't much change who I am or what I do here, the process merely demonstrates the barometer the project's contributors places on who has done what to warrant a nod and a shot at the year's top awards.

I took a glance,TomStar81, at your user page to see what would occur to me and what happened is that I'd find it difficult, if not impossible, to support anyone who feels that Pres. O is holding this nation hostage. Ideally this sort of thing should not make a difference, but I don't live in an ideal world.Carptrash (talk) 03:12, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Everyone be entitled to their opinion, and I grant that this may stop people from looking at me seriously, although you'd think that since Wikipedia operates mostly as a meritocracy there would be some room for forgiveness in people's hearts. Hell I know editors I hardly get along with on here at all and yet I ask them to help when I know that they know better than I do on a given matter. Still, though, you're probably right that it likely isn't doing me any favors. TomStar81 (Talk) 03:19, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

the hub-bub of the holidays we'll have to converse about how to gather Images, etc. I understand that because the artist's were government employees their Images are Public Domain I just don't know the "How to..." of moving them from where I find them on the Internet to WP:Commons. There is so much to do and I think useful info is getting lost (by me) in the process of creating the List. I'm collecting Artist Bio stuff at User talk:Buster7/sandbox for future work and, not always, but every now and then, when I go to an Existing Artist WP Article, I'll add info about the mural...but only sometimes. My way seems haphazard and sporadic. I guess I'm asking how you store and categorize all the gobs of info that comes in front of you when your doing a project like The List. I guess I know The List is a long term commitment and I want to start doing things the easiest way. Like I said...mid-January or so...```Buster Seven Talk16:51, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Piping down the valleys wild
OK - I'll keep that in mind if/when I take another look. (If they haven't been fixed already, I can go ahead and fix the ones I did yesterday.)
I've fixed 'em both. As to photos, there's not a lot I can do on that front. (I can try and get some shots of the murals in Arlington in situ...that's the only post office near at hand to me. I can eventually hit some of the ones in the valley - Strasburg, Luray - but that will take more time, and wherewithal that I don't have at the moment.)
What I am thinking, and this NEVER makes it so, is that a YES in that column, if it's a blue link could be a link to either an article about the building or the district that it is a part of. Make sense? Carptrash (talk) 20:18, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

also today I started to create an article about Ida Abelman, the first Women on the Women Muralits List and a redlink soon to be a bluelink. Its at Draft:Ida Abelman. Ive only created a few articles in my time, maybe 6, and have never used the "Articles for Creation" pages before. I thought, "What the Heck!", it might be a good idea to learn what a new editor goes thru to get his/her article into WP. I wonder if you (and any friendlies) could swing by there and take a look and tell me what it needs. If you add something, do it in small bites so I can see how it gets done and I can mimic it in the future for other articles. If you could add an "Infobox for artist"...that would be great. I don't know how to do that. I'm gonna add another Reference or two 'cause Ive heard that the more references the better as far as passing the submission process. Thanks!

No, to quote Sargent Schultz, "I know nothing!" about that interesting site. Another goldmine? Meanwhile, having 3,000 articles on my watch list, I have been enticed into creating a new article, New Formalism (architecture) - out of a discussion at Stripped Classicism. And then Mom woke up in the middle of everything, so it has been a wild morning so far. And yes, our, "little" project has been immensely satisfying and is bordering on a life long venture. I have a binder somewhere of my mural slides, but have not been able to locate it since my move. My guru was fond of saying. "Life is supposed to be interesting. This is how the universe expands."

I think I like you. From MI? moved to OR? me too. Detroit & Port sanilac.
I see you wrote over 100 WikiP articles.
your name pops up on the history of many of the articles I browsed.
Good. I'm looking for someone to write (enter) an article. people tell me That I need a wikipedia article and I believe them because I'm broke and they arent. Someone said I cant write my own article. its against the rules. Is said,"Well, Duh~!) Im ana rtist. artists cant appear to blow their own horns. its against the rules. they have to get others to blow them. (That doesnt sound the way I meant.)
So, if its not against the rules or insulting or some other infraction of the WikiP world, would you consider authoring my article? i will compensate you with.... wait for it.....ART!! i will give you a work Im selling for $100. http://www.jpallas.com/EPU/EPU.HTM
Furthermore, I will give you enough material that will make writing the entry a breeze.

Dead White men
Responding to your question on my talk page, When the prior editor wrote that "SculptorJanet Scudder had DWM's roles as subjects for sculpture in mind when ........." they were presuming to summarize what was thereafter quoted. However neither the actual term used "DWM"[sic], nor the term 'deceased white men' were actually used by the author quoted, thus effectively making the quote the opinion of the editor/quoter, not the person quoted.

What a bizarre juxtaposition it is to build a fountain featuring centaurs and mythical creatures alongside a sculpture group depicting a historical event.

When I wrote my message to you, I felt ambivalent about using the word "sorry". On one hand, I am sorry that it ended, because for me it was a very meaningful and rewarding time. On the other hand, the reason that it ended is that the civil war ended, which is even more than I dared to dream when we started the project. — Sebastian20:25, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

When he died is not important. Though an interesting thing to take note of. Any of his works created prior to 1923 are copyright free. The ones that he did between than and his death are still under copyright IF they were renewed after 27 years (or something like that). Very few sculptors, in my experience, did the renewal thing. However to be sure one need to figure out the year that a work need to be renewed in and then check the records for that year. I have a process for which to do that, it is a bit cumbersome and not exactly available for another month or two. Until after my eye surgery is done and I have glasses that work.

Editor of the Week
Editor of the Week
Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week for sterling work on postal articles, and helping another editor develop a "niche". Thank you for the great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)
I nominate Einar aka Carptrash as Editor of the Week. In early Dec I contacted him about editing the Post Office Murals article which he had started back in Dec 2011. As is the way of things here at WP we began to collaborate on a new artcle, the List of United States post office murals. We both immersed ourselves into creating the article and had a wonderful time. I learned many new things from "Carp" and know I will learn many more as we both expand articles related to "The List". I was searching for something more formidable and long-lasting to do as an editor and, with his sharing and input and mentoring, I have found my "niche".

A great collaborator and Wikipedia Veteran that does all of his work in the article mainspace, where it should be done. 10 years ago he edited Corrado Parducci. He still watches over it with care.
Thank you everyone and all who stumble across this. It will eventually make its way over to my User Page. First tho, I have cataract and glaucoma surgery in a few weeks to get through. Buster, in his generous note, mentions our list. For me that project was a god send because I could do a lot of work using a magnifying glass - since what I was engaged in was essentially data entry from one or two sources to wikipedia. However more complex editing is sort of out-of-reach for a bit and so receiving this very meaningful award is a very gratifying way to slip into semi-retirement until surgery, recovery and then new glasses have done what they are going to do. Few of us (wikipedia editors) do what we do for the recognition involved so when something like this comes along it is - for me at least - doubly or triply - significant. I did recently order and receive a dictionary of American Women artists of the twentieth century, and have discovered perhaps 7 of the 70 or so muralists that Buster and have lined up for articles, a disappointing number, but some movement forward and something to look forward to in the foreseeable future. An much as such a thing exists. Carptrash (talk) 19:16, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ha-ha. Within seconds it is up for deletion 'cause it has no references. What a load of crap. How do new editors deal with this insulting way of informing them that something is a miss. There has to be a better way. . Buster Seven Talk15:20, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"They" are doing what they always do, look for articles that don't belong. it is nice when they take the trouble to research both the subject and the article authors, but if they are doing many of these a day,ime becomes an issue. here Violet left this morning, heading back to NM and she should be about at Winslow, Arizona (home of the "standing on a corner" statue) about now. Mostly if we give these folks what they are asking for they will go away. And yes, she needs a default sort because WE need to add some categories.

I just found this reminder that I made to myself in my sanbbox : Here is a neat trick to avoid a reprise: never put up a new article unless you have all of your independently confirmable sources in place. The problem is that these appear to be works in progress -- that will open you to tagging. I never put up a new article unless I have my references and links in place. Ecoleetage July 2008.

Sculpture art
Thank you, Einar, for quality articles about sculpture as part of architecture and its people, beginning with Corrado Parducci and not ending with Stripped Classicism, done in collaboration, for excellent images including Phallic architecture, for your indisputable collection of POV phrases, for missing, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!
I had surgery on Monday and my eye is almost back to where it was before the proceedure, which is to say, translucent but not transparent. Typing is still a pain in the ass, which is better than a pain in the eye. I cancelled by today and tomorrow's drumming, but am inclined to do it Friday. And so it goes. Nice to hear from you, what's up? Carptrash (talk) 18:44, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing at all urgent. Give your new eyes and ass a break!! No pain should exist in either. Next week is fine. your recovery is most important. Ive been busy with so much else plus RL. Next week...week after...no rush. . Buster Seven Talk22:15, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Glad the pro-SEE-dure is going well and recovery continues. I was thumbing thru my new Directory of Native American Painters (DNAP) by Lester and found myself creating 3 new articles on the same day. I used an existing article (of course I forgot which one) as a template. I copied the whole article, created a sandbox, pasted and transposed and replaced info and data and prose, etc. Moments after they went "live" an editor showed up and tinkered with the refs which was fine....a learning moment for me. And I owe it all to a chance meeting with you. I used to get caught up in the daily drama which is easy to find for a wanderer like me. I still defend myself from criticism but it's different. I feel stronger and more confident as an active, working, participating member of WP. TRA!. Buster Seven Talk12:55, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I am one of those folks who does not really believe in "a chance meeting's", believing instead that there are other forces at work - a sort of gravity that pulls people who need or should be together, together. In any case I am very happy if I was a catalyst in your development as an editor.My "new" eye still is not that focused but I can tell that colors are going to be much brighter. I am putzing away at User:Carptrash/Earl Palmer's hits, a process that I fine tuned on our murals, so that's a tip of the hat to you. Carptrash (talk) 17:02, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Pretty Girls Everywhere, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mike Vernon. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
can you take a look at T. C. Cannon, an article I worked on this A.M. instead of sleeping-In. (:~) I'm not happy with the other references (called Frederick I think) and feel the "Notes" should be "references" and vice-a-versa and the Frederick ref should be displayed and used like the "Lester" ref. If you decide to make the changes I can "look over your shoulder" and learn how to make the changes. I have been conferring (slightly) with editor User talk:Unbuttered Parsnip about increasing my knowledge about refs but he uses a different way (Harvard) and I think I'm just getting confused which seems to be my normal state when dealing with making changes and adding new references to existing articles. I don't want to mess up someone elses work or come across as a novice. . Buster Seven Talk13:58, 11 March 2015 (UTC).[reply]
Another editor (with limited experience) has now changed my reference to coincide with the previous references which I think were not properly in accordance with the MoS in the first place. I'd change it back but I don't want to edit war and I'm not actually sure which way is best. . Buster Seven Talk22:54, 11 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm from Russia, so please excuse my rusty English. I found, that Miss Hilda Ward helped to translate Nabokov's essay Mademoiselle O from French to English. It was one of Nabokov's first English publications. But it's not clear, is Hilda Ward from you article the same person who helped Nabokov? Nabokov's biographer Brian Boyd wrote that Hilda Ward, a translator, was introduced to Nabokov by Elena Mogilat, a teacher of Russian in Colombia. May be it could help to find the answer.

I was wrong, Nabokov wrote nothing about Hilda Ward in 1951. But in 1966 he wrote "In America, whither I migrated on May 28, 1940, "Mademoisele O" was translated by late Hilda Ward into English, revised by me, and published by Edward Weeks in the Janaury , 1943, issue of The Atlantic Monthly..." 37.190.50.157 (talk) 07:48, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
...which I shall upload upon my return home from my travels. I was in Williamston, North Carolina this morning, and managed to snag a photo of the mural in the post office there. (Also the post office building, which is part of the local historic district.) It's by someone called Philip von Saltza, who as yet lacks an article (not surprising, given its quality, I weep to say)...if you want to try and work something up I'll be happy to contribute the illustration in a couple of weeks If I come across more murals in my travels (which to be honest seems rather unlikely) I shall point them your way. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa.03:50, 31 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
there is a spot for the picture already at List of United States post office murals and I'll look and see what, if anything, I have on Saltza. As you might or might not know, I tend to do articles that I can source out of my home library and murals of North Carolina is a weak spot. One of . . . . ........ several.

As an art historian this is something that I have stumbled across many times over the years and finally decided to collect this information, so created this category.

I have not thought much beyond the art world, but I see no reason to limit a list as long as the "teacher" is someone notable, as defined by "having wikipedia article about them."

Speaking of which...I picked up a couple of books on the subject of art in the southern United States, including a nice little volume on women artists. I expect to make some good headway using those, and I'll let you know what I'm working on when I start it up. Speaking of which...do you have any interest in colonial artists at all? --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa.01:34, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I know very little about colonial artists, though might have some info on some if I have a name to go by. One theory of American art (which I sort of buy into, but am always willing to change) is that there was not such thing as colonial art if you leave out folk art. I have some stuff on early tombstones but . . . ... tell me more, tell me more. I am interested in women artists and recently picked up a (used) Women artists of the West, so let's do it. 04:42, 9 April 2015 (UTC)Carptrash (talk)
Right - I'm home now. Let me get sorted and see what I can start doing, hopefully in the next day or so.
Regarding colonial artists, I've been doing some work in that arena of late - have a look at John Mare (painter), for instance. I take your point, about folk art, but I don't entirely agree with it; there was some work of very high quality being done in a couple of the urban centers, especially Boston, for at least a couple of decades before the Revolution. I have an excellent resource which I am using to close some of the gap I see around here. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa.00:25, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I've liberated the book from my packing, though I won't have time to delve into it in any detail in the next few days. It's the catalog of an exhibit titled Eight Southern Women which was shown at the Greenville County Museum of Art sometime in the 1980s.

Yeesh, $63? I bought my copy in the museum store for ten bucks - primarily as a Wiki source. (I must confess that in perusing it I didn't find much that I cared for, though there are a couple of pieces I wouldn't mind hanging on my walls.) If you're interested you can try writing them and see if they'll sell you one by mail - their shop prices were quite reasonable. (I bought another book, also as a source, titled Impressionism and the South - two dollars. Also a third catalog, which I intend to use for articles but which is also a memento of a lovely little exhibit I saw there, for ten bucks again.)
Greenville is an interesting museum - it specializes in art of the South, about which I don't know very much. There was an exhibit of paintings from the Johnson Collection (http://thejohnsoncollection.org/) on display, and another of work by a fellow named Sidney Dickinson. No article (yet - ha), and I'd never heard of him before, but his works are most fascinating. And quite disturbing, some of them. If you ever go to the Carolinas, it's well worth a visit. I'd love to get them involved in an edit-a-thon based on their collection.
Actually, Greenville is worth it for the museum and gallery at Bob Jones University, too, which has a fine collection of Old Master religious works. There's also the Columbia Museum of Art in Columbia, SC, and the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh - we hit all four on that trip I just came back from. I'm told there's also an excellent collection of Southern art at the Morris Museum in Augusta, GA, which I'm going to put on my list for a future visit. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa.02:35, 13 April 2015 (UTC)\[reply]

Yesterday I attended above at the University of Chicago Regenstein Library with a few other editors. The Special Collection section was open for our use and the staff had selected some Women that were historic to U of C for editor developing. I got lucky with Maude Hutchins. Her article was pretty much a stub, only mentioning her later years as an author. But her early life, as an artist, was completely missing. Right away I found a great article from 1928, The Chicago Sunday Tribune, from which I gathered loads of wonderful info. It was a treat to handle the actual document, in this case a weathered copy of the article and other notices and ads for shows, and little blurbs from the Chicago Maroon, the school paper. Not all of it was usable but it was a gas to read, and, I say this with a straight face, fondle. Also, I JethroBT pointed out the "Named references clipboard" which I never knew about. It was like hearing the Beetles for the first time. Hope all is well. The ANI case I was focussed on is over and we await the ARBCom proposals. TRA!. Buster Seven Talk 01:13, 17 April 2015 (UTC)

Dear Sir,
.
Yes I am the family archivist, mostly because no one else is very interested in the "dead people" in my family. Because of that disinterest, I secured a pretty good library of papers relating to many of the successful members of the family.

What is it you would like to discuss? As it turns out I will be traveling through New Mexico mid May 2015. Perhaps we might exchange information as to where it is you are verses where it is I will be traveling.
