Re: Ellen Thesleff

Hi, the hook was specifically designed to avoid placing the name of the artist first so that the painting gets the most views. Do you have any objection to restoring the original wording? It should read: "… that art historians believe Self-Portrait may have been drawn by Ellen Thesleff in a trance-like state?" I am also open to alternative wording that preserves the name of the work or links to it in the first position and does not place it next to any other link. Thanks. Viriditas (talk) 06:15, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

One possible solution that both preserves the link and names the artist is to fold it into the title: "… that art historians believe the Self-Portrait of Ellen Thesleff may have been drawn in a trance-like state?" I want readers to focus on visiting the link to the painting, not any other link. Thanks. Viriditas (talk) 06:34, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

Why is my hook the only one in the queue that doesn’t have the link to the article in the first position? Viriditas (talk) 07:00, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi Viriditas, I found the original phrasing to be a little awkward. I've now modified the hook to place the bolded link first, by folding Thesleff's name into the link text. Hope this is fine! — RAVENPVFF · talk · 11:39, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. I greatly appreciate it. I agree that the original phrasing was awkward, and I should have put more time into it. Viriditas (talk) 12:00, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

Mount Edziza

I see you fixed the respelling key in the Mount Edziza volcanic complex article. I've done the same in the Mount Edziza article but I'm not sure if the respelling key for the indigenous name needs any capitalization since I'm not really familiar with this stuff. Volcanoguy 21:32, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

@Volcanoguy: The capitalization in the respelling key indicates the stressed syllable. Regarding the Tahltan pronunciation in Mount Edziza, it should really be written using {{IPA}} instead of {{IPAc-en}}, since it isn't English text. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 16:16, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

I wasn't the one who added the Tahltan pronunciation so if you or someone else can fix that then please do so. Thanks. Volcanoguy 16:25, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

@Volcanoguy: I've added the Tahltan IPA with a citation to a relevant paper. I tried to mimic the citation syntax in use in the article, but feel free to adjust it if required. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 17:26, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

What was your reason for deleting the respell for the Tahltan name? Volcanoguy 18:42, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

@Volcanoguy: {{respell}} is specifically intended for English words and pronunciations only. It doesn't work with other languages, and trying to approximate an English pronunciation for the Tahltan word would not be appropriate – see MOS:RESPELL for guidance. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 21:11, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
