Peer Review

edit

This page originally has solid information , most of the advance work would be adding greater detail about Corita. Line 27 doesn't seem to be revised but more unnecessary wording added. The basis of the original article does have fluent grammar. Her “artistic style” piece is extremely lengthy, several lines can be contributed to “Career” section. The article is missing her family background, if that information can be located.

All of information seems to be neutral and historical. If it is difficult to find much more information, I would organize the information in a way that the reader has a better understanding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lexichristina6598 (talkcontribs) 19:05, 5 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

To quote or not to quote

edit

The change as follows is mine, as I forgot to login before posting:

    1. (cur | prev) 06:59, 20 November 2014‎ 24.56.124.204 (talk)‎ . . (10,460 bytes) (+239)‎ . . (Source was needed but a trusted educational institutional source said nothing of being "friends" and, even though this source quoted her classes inspiring such prominent artists, it did not say they attended them or even met her. Changed to be correct.) (undo)

She may or may not have been "friends" with them but, according to Skidmore College sources quoting an interview with Tang Dayton, "her classes were an avant-garde mecca" for the named Artistic figures of Alfred Hitchcock, John Cage, Saul Bass, Buckminster Fuller.

If someone can word this better, aller de l'avant. I looked through many sources but most incorrectly quoted from the previous version of this Wikipedia page; I finally found the trustworthy source I quoted and, thus, changed the page to reflect factual information to the best of my knowledge.

This erroneous practice is tainting human knowledge faster than the Illuminati rewriting history books. People don't quote their sources on Wikipedia and word it wrong, giving it the wrong meaning and then causing others that quote and trust Wikipedia to also have a non-avant-garde source.

It is no wonder a former history professor of mine said we cannot use Wikipedia as a source for anything! I am out to change this where I can; however, please remove the quotes from the Wikipedia page of discussion if I was not supposed to encapsulate my change in them. As an English Professor, I have known to use quotations on literal quotes, word for word, when writing a research paper.

I will use Wikipedia's double italics(' ') encapsulation to make it in italics, as an alternative format of quotes, thus revising it once again. Johnakabean (talk) 07:19, 20 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

The italics were extremely confusing:
Her classes were an avant-garde mecca for such prominent, ground-breaking artists and inventors of Alfred Hitchcock, John Cage, Saul Bass, Buckminster Fuller and Charles & Ray Eames.[1]
Italics are not a generally understood "alternative format of quotes". I have revised that ¶ somewhat, to make it a paraphrase rather than a quotation. --Thnidu (talk) 07:59, 20 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

No Inuit Reservation in British Columbia

edit

174.93.212.55 (talk · contribs) added (?) with the edit summary Inuits are on the Arctic coast. There are NO Inuit people in British Columbia. While that statement is somewhat untrue, as there are Inuit people in BC,[1] there are no Inuit reservations there. Please see List of Indian reserves in British Columbia.

Silkscreen print Stop the Bombing

edit

The article says:

By the 1960s, her work started becoming increasingly political. For example, her silkscreen print, stop the bombing (1967) is a large piece protesting the use of nuclear weaponry in bold, blue letters against a white and red background. 

But this is not correct. The silkscreen print, stop the bombing from 1967 was a protest against the ongoing bombing in Vietnam (Operation Rolling Thunder 1965-1968)

Here is the transcribed text of the screen print:

I am in Vietnam--
who will console me?

I am terrified of bombs,
of cold wet leaves and bamboo splinters
in my feet, of a bullet cracking through
the trees, across the world, killing me--
there is a bullet in my brain,
behind my eyes, so that all I see is pain

I am in vietnam--
who will console me?

from the sixoclock news,
from the headlines lurking on the street,
between the angry love songs on the radio,
from the frightened hawks
and angry doves I meet
a war I will not fight is killing me--

I am in vietnam--
who will console me?

Stop the Bombing

Of course, she did oppose nuclear weaponry, but this print is about conventional warfare and herbicidal warfare in Vietnam.--2003:CF:3F30:1914:75AF:4FBE:762C:31B8 (talk) 10:56, 18 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
