Second Impressionist Exhibition edit

Just saw that you had created the page for the second. Nice. Lots of work and a very good result. Randy Kryn (talk) 01:51, 18 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Those are the same bad sources as last time edit

History of the chair - I'm very tired of having to deal with the same bad edit over and over. Simonm223 (talk) 16:37, 17 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Those are not the same "bad sources" that were previously removed. The source mentioned on the talk page as being bad was a page on the Brooklyn Museum website that only briefly mentioned the subject (This page). The only other source was The Wilson Quarterly, which is reputable journal, though it only covered African chairs in a couple of paragraphs. I added three published book sources that were no there before. Two of those sources cover African stools and chairs significantly, and the other is a more general history of the chair.

At least the first of those sources does not actually support that chairs were absent. The portugese introduced European-style chairs and "elbow chairs". That's different from introduced chairs. Simonm223 (talk) 16:59, 17 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
I did not say the Portuguese introduced chairs. I said the Portuguese introduced European-style chairs, as the source says. GranCavallo (talk) 17:01, 17 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
I have also removed the word "backed" from the sentence in the lead to better reflect the text in the sources. GranCavallo (talk) 17:03, 17 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
And also from under the "Sub-Saharan African chairs" heading. GranCavallo (talk) 17:05, 17 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you kindly for your adjustments there. I've no further complaints. Simonm223 (talk) 18:42, 17 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Draft:A Modern Olympia edit

What a nice article, thank you. Randy Kryn (talk) 15:17, 30 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

I looked at that article now as well. I think it is good enough to submit for review and continued work can be done in the main space. Iljhgtn (talk) 19:26, 1 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Justice Waits edit

I was doing my usual book cover addition work today and I looked at the Justice Waits page. It is my opinion that the page now sufficiently meets WP:GNG to not be deleted after the changes that I made to it. Iljhgtn (talk) 18:24, 1 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

That article was written by the author of the book, so it isn't independent of the subject. WP:BKCRIT excludes promotional articles by the author for the purpose of establishing notability. GranCavallo (talk) 19:13, 1 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
I really have no interest in the book one way or the other, I just wanted to say that it appeared to have met the criteria after another passing review. If after an exhaustive search you feel that it still does not meet WP:BOOKCRIT then leave your nom as originally posted. Iljhgtn (talk) 19:24, 1 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
