Rentjong Atjeh

Dimohon untuk memberikan suara di sini. Untuk di Wikipedia bahasa Inggris, mengapa artikel Rentjong Atjeh belum diusulkan sebagai AB? Padahal artikelnya bagus 'lho... Hanamanteo (talk) 06:40, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

Haa... lah... Idemu gila, bung Hanam. Wong artikelnya saja (terlalu) pendek, masa mau dicalonkan sbagai AP? yg bner aja? klo id:De Stem des Bloeds dan Djaoeh Dimata sy masih stuju, tapi klo klo Rentjong Atjeh? --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 06:31, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

• Kalau Rentjong Atjeh saya belum mencari data di arsip Belanda, jadi belum bisa dikatakan lengkap. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:33, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

Adi, tidaklah gila saya mengusulkan artikel Rentjong Atjeh menjadi AP. Sudah memenuhi syarat-syarat AP. Kecuali jika tidak memenuhi syarat-syarat AP, mungkin tak apa jika anda bilang saya gila... Hanamanteo (talk) 12:29, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

Lagipula, jika cukup rujukan, maka sudah siap untuk diusulkan... Lain kali, jangan asal ucap! Hanamanteo (talk) 12:30, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

Memang sih sudah cukup ref.nya tapi, bitanya itu terlalu pendek (7.900 bita), artikelnya. Lagipula, om Woodrich juga bilang klo sumber2 berbahasa Belanda masih kurang. Jgn pula kita (terlalu) mudah utk terpesona akan artikel2 yg ditulis dgn tdk menyalahi peraturan. Artikelnya itu kurang panjang (7.900 bita); De Stem des Bloeds (12.000 bita), Allah jang Palsoe (18.000 bita), dan Djaoeh Dimata (19.000 bita) saja lebih panjang artikelnya. Jgn-lah terlalu sering utk memudahkan sesuatu dlm Wikipedia! Itu namanya mempermainkan sistem. Adalah "dosa" dlm Wikipedia, utk mencari celah yg (katanya) utk kebaikan, eh.... tahunya utk sesuka-hati perutnya. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 03:56, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Coba lihat id:Taman Nasional Gunung Halimun Salak dan id:Nama orang Minangkabau. Artikel itu pendek, namun lengkap. Lagipula ada perbedaan antara "Artikel pendek namun lengkap" dengan "Artikel panjang namun kurang lengkap". Lain kali, jangan cuma pikirkan isinya yang anda anggap pendek itu, pikirkan juga rujukannya, gambarnya, lagipula kata-katanya sudah dimengeri karena yang menulisnya sendiri ialah Farras... Hanamanteo (talk) 04:45, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Itu jelas beda zaman. Taman Nasional Gunung Halimun itu dijadikan AP pada masa2 awal Wikipedia (antara 2006-2008), jadi masih pas dgn keadaan/standar yg ditetapkan oleh Wikipedia. Klo Nama orang Minangkabu itu jelas kentara perbedaannya itu, 13.000 bita. Beritahukan/kasi lihat kpd sy, adakan artikel en.wp yg panjangnya hanyalah 8.000 bita saja! --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 05:27, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Apakah karna Farras & Woodrich-lah yg mengusahakan artikel sejarah ini, anda lantas mati-matian membela Rentjong Atjeh jadi AP? Tdk! Tdk bener klo dijadikan AP! Nah, coba anda nilai artikel ini, Astaman dan Noesa Penida. Sdh pantas belum sbagai AP? --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 05:30, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Aduh, mengapa 'ya orang ini suka mempermasalahkan orang yang mengusulkan suatu AP? Saya lihat, anda suka memperhatikan panjang suatu AP, padahal, panjang dan pendek suatu artikel bukan termasuk kriteria AP, yang ada, lengkap. Lagipula, sumber dari Belanda yang disebutkan Tn. Woodrich itu sebenarnya bukanlah keharusan, cuma saran saja. Coba anda berpikir untuk tidak menghalang-halangi seseorang tanpa alasan yang jelas. Anda 'kan editor, jadi gunakan jabatan tersebut dengan bijak, jangan suka berbuat kurang bijak... Hanamanteo (talk) 15:51, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Saya tidak akan mengusulkan 2 artikel yang disebut anda karena artikel itu masih belum memenuhi kriteria AP. Ingat, asumsikan niat baik! Hanamanteo (talk) 15:55, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Sy rasa bukan begitu masalahnya. Selain pendek, artikel pilihan juga harus memasukkan pendapat yg umum/mayoritas (yg masyhur) dan minoritas. Nah, artikel Rentjong Atjeh dlm hal ini juga hanya memuat pendapat dari sisi org Indonesia saja. Nah, bagaimana sumber dari org Belanda? dari De Sumatra Post, Java Bode, bagaimana pula dgn De Indisch Courant atw Soerabaijasch Handelsblad? Jadi, slain pendek, sumber daripada minoritas itu sendiri -yakni sumber berbahasa Belanda- saja belum dicantumkan. Sy mengutip kata om Woodrich, "Kalau Rentjong Atjeh saya belum mencari data di arsip Belanda, jadi belum bisa dikatakan lengkap". Oleh sebab itu, jgn melupakan apa kata "tuan rumah" (yaitu om Chris Woodrich itu sendiri) sbg. pemilik user talk. Yg kedua, anda memanfaatkan celah dlm kriteria AP, yakni "pendek tapi lengkap atw panjang tapi kurang lengkap." Inikan namanya mempermainkan sistem, yaitu dgn jalan itulah artikel2 yg lengkap, memenuhi syarat artikel dlm Wikipedia, yg dibuat oleh org terkenal pula, anda jadikan sebagai AP. Itukan namanya mempermainkan sistem. Sy sdh beritahu sjak awal: dosa mempermain sistem Wikipedia itu! --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 06:39, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Sudahlah, jangan berkelahi. Setiap orang punya hak untuk mengusulkan AP/AB,'kan? Lagipula, sumber dari Belanda itu saran dari Tn. Woodrich. Dalam syarat-syarat AP pun, tak ada poin yang menyebutkan bahwa harus ada sumber dari luar negeri, yang benar harus ada rujukan yang terpercaya, tak pandang ia dari dalam/luar negeri. Yang anda sebut mempermainkan sumber itu tidak tepat, karena itu merupakan tuduhan yang tidak berdasar. Mempermainkan sistem Wikipedia itu, contohnya vandalisme di Wikipedia dan jangan pula anda bilang pengusulan ini merupakan vandalisme. Saya sudah mempertimbangkannya dengan baik. Lagipula, tak mungkinlah bagi saya untuk mengusulkan artikel id:Mega Mendoeng karena kurang rujukan. Hanamanteo (talk) 10:25, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Menurut kriteria, AP harus punya pendapat mayoritas dan mengetengahkan pula pendapat minoritas. Yg terakhir, jgn-lah skali2 anda undang sy utk memilih artikel Rentjong Atjeh. Pendapat sy sdh clear? Klo sdh, sy tinggalkan dan takkan sy bicarakan lagi masalah ini ibarat ksatria yg masih punya harga diri. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 12:02, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

DYK nomination of History of Chincoteague, Virginia

Hello! Your submission of History of Chincoteague, Virginia at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. I'm never sure whether I should post queries on the DYK nominator's page or the main contributors but hopefully you won't shout too loudly at me if I'm making a silly mistake on this and just not seeing it? It's a fab article and I don't understand why it's languished without being DYK reviewed for so long. SagaciousPhil - Chat 09:26, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

22 minutes and no queue to promote

I managed to throw together one full prep and two mostly full ones, but that won't do any good if no admin shows up to get the first one into a queue. If you're around and can do it, we won't get off schedule. Unfortunately, it's past my bedtime, so I can't stay around to see what happens...

Picture cropping

Two of my DYK nominations have a picture that is overly long or broad, Jahrhundertring and Wilfred Byng Kenrick. As you know, the two editors whom I would ask to crop are not available. Can you do it? Or tell me how to learn to do it myself? In both cases, the cropped version should not replace the original. The former could be cropped mostly at the top, for the other I suggest a detail from the center. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:03, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

I have a Windows operating system and Firefox as the browser, and this is what I do.

1. Click on the image to open it.
2. Right-click and choose "save image as".
3. Save the image on your computer with an appropriate file name (I tend to keep the original file name and add "crop" to the end e.g. "Wagner.jpg" becomes "Wagner crop.jpg"
4. Find and open the picture on your computer, and open it (I have Windows Live Photo Gallery, but other software will be much the same)
5. Find the "crop" tool, and play around with this until you have got rid of the bits you don't want. Then save it.
6. Where the image page for the uncropped image says "This is a file from the Wikimedia Commons. Information from its description page there is shown below.", click on the words "description page" to go to Commons.
7. Click on "edit" at the top of the page, and copy everything
8. At Commons, in the toolbar on the left hand side, find "upload file" (under participation) and open this in a new tab or window for ease, then click "Back to the old form" (at the top), then "use the basic upload form" (at the bottom), and you end up here
9. Click "Browse" and find your file e.g. "Wagner crop.jpg"
10. In the summary box, replace everything that's there already with the material you have copied from the original file (description, licence, categories etc). Adjust the description as necessary
11. Add a note to say that the file has been cropped from [[:File:Wagner.jpg]] (don't forget the ":" before the word "File"
12. Click on "upload file" and it should be uploaded
13. Enjoy!

Crisco may have some better ideas but that's the general approach, I hope... If you're cropping to show one particular person from a group, then you may want to think of a better filename than "X crop.jpg" and you may need to find one or two more appropriate categories, but the upload's the main thing. Bencherlite^Talk 19:23, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Thank you, will try, but not now, - still on vacation, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:37, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

• Thanks Bencher. That's pretty much all I do when cropping, unless I'm also trying to clean the background at the same time (and that takes a bit more work). I'll see if I can help here Gerda. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:26, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

• Thank you both! Now I have a new situation to solve: someone else cropped the image for Jahrhundertring and replaced the original. I would like to have both, one for stamp size, one for articles, namely Patrice Chéreau who is on the Main page now. I would prefer the original name for the cropped version because "File:Gwyneth Chéreau.jpg" seems also cropped :) (short for Gwyneth Jones in staging of Wagner's Ring Cycle by Patrice Chéreau) - The other might be File:Centenary Ring.jpg or what you think is good. Ideas welcome. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:30, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

ps: the other article went to prep without the picture, - I will follow the recipe above some other day, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:10, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

• If the image is not on the MP yet or protected, I'd download the crop, revert the upload, and upload separately at Commons. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:31, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

• I don't know what you mean, the image was on the MP and is archived, also in my memories (and the DYK statistic), - what you suggest sounds good anyway, I will take care of the articles when you tell me what you did, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 00:16, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

Fractional currency FLC

Hi Crisco 1492- I believe I've addressed your comments. Thanks.-Godot13 (talk) 21:36, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

• When possible could you have another quick look. I had not explained something adequately: shinplasters (as an alternate word for fractional currency) was issued by the federal government (the subject of this list), and also by local merchants and municipalities (i.e., script). I have clarified that the laws against shinplasters was leveled against script, not federally-issued fractional currency. Thanks-Godot13 (talk) 23:09, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

• I got that after looking at the Shinplaster article, but this needs to be clear for people too lazy to click as well. I will check your additions when I get home from work. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:12, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

• Many thanks.-Godot13 (talk) 23:24, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Main Page appearance: Frank's Cock

This is a note to let the main editors of Frank's Cock know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on December 1, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask Bencherlite (talk · contribs). You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/December 1, 2013. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Frank's Cock is a 1993 Canadian short film written and directed by Mike Hoolboom (pictured). The eight-minute production stars Callum Keith Rennie as an unnamed narrator who discusses his relationship with his partner, Frank. The two met while the narrator was a teenager and spent nearly ten years together. Frank has since been diagnosed with AIDS, and the narrator fears his lover's death. The story was based on the experience of one of Hoolboom's friends at People With AIDS, which Hoolboom adapted after receiving a commission to create a short film about breaking up. Shot on a low budget, the work is shown in a split-screen format with interspersed scenes from popular culture, gay pornography, and human creation; this format is meant to symbolise the "fragmentation of the body" experienced by AIDS sufferers. Produced by Alex Mackenzie, Frank's Cock was critically acclaimed and won several awards, including the NFB–John Spotton Award for best Canadian short film at the 1994 Toronto International Film Festival. The script has been republished several times and has inspired a short on LGBT issues in Canada's native community. (Full article...)

61st Oscars (1989)

Hi there.

I was wondering if you will be could proofread 61st Academy Awards regarding featured list candidacy since you have done several film awards lists. I understand you may be busy, but I just want some feedback on grammatical errors or contents and I would be grateful for the extra help. I also pledged that this will be the final Oscar ceremony list that I hope to promote for 2013 (I resume college this January so I'm not sure if I have time to keep up with further nominations until I know what happens). Thanks.

BTW: Thank you for promoting the 1996 Oscars. Very grateful.

• Emang kenapa? Pada tahun2 itu banyak orang percaya bahwa AIDS hanya dapat menginfeksi orang homoseksual. Lagi pula, dalam budaya Barat (apalagi yang avant-gard) tidak ada masalah membahas sexualitas (baik yang heteroseksual maupun homoseksual) secara eksplisit dalam film yang dituju kepada penonton dewasa. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:06, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/Karađorđe (film)

Crisco, what would you recommend for this nom, which had extensive close paraphrasing issues. I pinged Yoninah, who reviewed it, and got a reply on my talk page that when the editor had made a couple of minor edits that didn't really address the close paraphrasing, Yoninah took care of it for the English sources, but can't deal with the Serbo-Croatian sources where—it seems likely—further close paraphrasing exists. Yoninah doesn't feel comfortable approving an article under these circumstances, which is very understandable.

If you could either take a look at the article yourself or make a suggestion about the best way to determine an outcome, that would be great. Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:51, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/BBC First World War centenary season

Crisco, does this run afoul of WP:DYKSG#D7, on the "unexpanded headers" point? It's an article on BBC programs for the centenary of WWI, and many of the programs are named, but without explanation of what they are. I was wondering whether this could be considered complete enough for a new article, or if it isn't. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:01, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/No Love Allowed

Crisco, I was wondering if you could do a review of this one. I had to withdraw after losing patience with Tomica, and BaldyBill engendered a hostile response—though I do wonder at the criticism of the Vibe source, since the Wikipedia article on Vibe (magazine) seems to give it reasonable bona fides, at least for a review under their auspices, though I don't know their online standards. (Unfortunately, online typo correction seems to be a rare thing, even at normally reliable sources.) Thanks for considering it. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:41, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

• I've generally treated Vibe as reasonably reliable, particularly for reviews. It is a fairly major publication in its field. Yes, online typos rarely get fixed... digital world possibilities with a print-medium mindset. I don't feel comfortable with this nomination and think a spotcheck of sources needs to be carried out. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:20, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

• Good to have another view of Vibe. I also didn't feel comfortable with the nom, once Tomica failed to make that fix. I can call for another reviewer there, but I've already taken myself out of doing anything more; if we can't get anyone to review it, what happens? We're asking for a major investment of time with the spotchecks, and I know we'd be reluctant to promote without them. I could ask Nikkimaria, but I feel like I'm imposing on her a lot, lately. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:45, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

• I say if it fails, it fails. I don't have the time to invest in full spotchecks right now (starting an international seminar later, and I have to teach) but maybe someone will pick it up. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:57, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

Tn. Woodrich, saya lihat di artikel Kami, Perempuan, pada bagian referensinya 'kok ada kata "Woodrow, Chris"? Bukankah itu adalah nama asli anda yaitu Chris Woodrich? Jadi, anda juga membuat buku?

• Riset asli kan riset yang belum pernah diterbitkan sebelumnya (alias menjadi "asli Wikipedia"). Yang ini sudah diterbitkan. Abstraknya juga bisa dibaca di situs penerbit, yaitu Universitas Sanata Dharma. Kalau merujuk karya diri sendiri, saya merasa hal ini boleh asal tidak melewati batas yang wajar. Di sini artikel tersebut hanya digunakan untuk satu paragraf saja, sementara paragraf-paragraf lain di artikel ini dari sumber lain sekali.

Pattimura

Crisco, sebenernya saya mau bilang ini dari dulu cuman baru keinget hari ini. Saya lihat artikel id:Pattimura di WBI rada berbenturan antara versi Kristen (Thomas Matulessy) & versi Islam (Ahmad Lussy). Padahal saya ingat kalo dulu versi Ahmad Lussy ditolak di artikel Pattimura di Wikipedia bahasa Inggris dengan alasan This text is based on one very biased source: "Api Sejarah", AM Suryanegara. Tolong donk benerin artikel Pattimura yang di WBI tersebut. --Erik Fastman (talk) 12:50, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

• Bukannya "Be Bold" juga berlaku di WB Indonesia? Sumber ilmiah tidak jelas apakah Pattimura itu seorang Kristen atau Muslim (Kristen, Muslim, dst.), jadi lazimnya dinyatakan bahwa sumber tidak setuju. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:17, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

Steeplechase 2013

Hi Crisco 1492- I try to avoid making assumptions - in FP, specifically the set of fractional currency that was just promoted (and the set of FRBN currency which might get enough support), am I correct in believing that each individual image of the set counts as a piece of featured content for the Steeplechase? If this is the case then I will officially enter. I have three more days to nominate eligible material. Thanks in advance for your input.-Godot13 (talk) 06:30, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Gender

[1] Yes writing out "(female)" is awkward, but her gender *IS* important because the Wikipedia article and its references explain that "She also gained notability as she was the only woman, other than Hillary Clinton, in the photograph." While reading the whole article makes it obvious which depicted person on the photo is associated with the "Audrey Tomason" name in the article, not writing out her gender creates two difficulties that are worse than putting the awkward note "(female)": first, I had *great* difficulty understanding who "Audrey Tomason" is looking at the photo and at the list of people in the photo: the description says "standing" and "from left to right" and if someone closely looks at the photo it's possible to identify her correctly in the first instance, but the chance of mistaken identification is quite high, and I actually misidentified her (I actually thought she was a male standing near her, only much later reading the whole article I understood my mistake). I regularly interpret English Wikipedia articles in Greek to other people, which means I read the English text and I say aloud the Greek translation as I tranlate the text on my head in real time, and I regularly make mistakes regarding the genders of people as I don't know what names are associated with which gender, I actually was reading aloud interpreting this article and I announced to the other people who were listening to me that she was a male near her, then I wondered who this young woman is and I assumed she were probably a low-ranking employee like e.g. a cleaner or a random journalist as I didn't see the list of names containing any other female than Clinton, and then I looked closer in the photo and found out the person whose shoulder is visible and with the list of names I understood my mistake and corrected myself. Because she holds an apparently high-ranking office, someone not being able to understand genders from foreign names would immediately assume she is male because males are more often associated with high government positions. So, the mistake I did could be done by other people as well, some of whom may be interpreters who read articles aloud to other people who listen. Problem is, interpreters can't know that in the next paragraphs the article specifically refers to her as a woman, so such a mistake regarding her gender could go unnoticed for some time. Of this problem regarding genders isn't only in this article, but it's a good case here, so I think we need some way to give the gender info in the encyclopedia, as the English language isn't good at giving the gender info (in Greek it's virtually impossible to refer to any person without giving out the gender info, nearly all words carry the gender information). While the inclusion of gender after names may seem awkard, allowing such gender mistakes to happen seem more of a problem to me. Cogiati (talk) 12:25, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

• TL; DR. Short version: if it is clear in the body of the text that Tomason is female, having to indicate that she is female with a parenthetical could be downright insulting, as if saying "yeah, this person has a fairly high position even though she's female", clearly a position we shouldn't be taking. That the individuals' positions in the photograph are numbered in that list also makes where she is perfectly clear.12:50, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
  • (Talk page stalker: C's talk page happens still to be on my watchlist). Cogiati (I speak as a retired woman French professor): Crisco is right. The reason is that English and the gendered languages have gone in opposite directions on the question of indicating gender when talking about a person's profession. The bottom line is that in English we strive for gender neutrality unless there is a compelling reason to specify gender (first woman president, only male midwife, etc.); I see none in this instance. Personally, I also deplore the recent move towards using "female" instead of "woman" in contexts like this. I'm a woman not a female. Ideally I'm a retired French professor, period. If you have to specify, for example you want to say that professors who are women get screwed if they take time out to raise their kids, then that's "women professors" not "female professors" get screwed. Hope this helps. Awien (talk) 18:38, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your point you made recently at Ian Rose's talk page. It's just I'm heading out of town soon and will have limited Internet access for a while. But I understand your point, Crisco 1492, and I'll give it a rest for a while. Thank you, — Cirt (talk) 01:04, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Komik Si Juki

Om Woodrich, boleh tdk aku membuat artikel komik Indonesia/dlm negeri yg baru terkenal setahun blakangan ini. Ini rancangannya. Boleh tdk, om dan sdh bisa dijadikan artikel blum? Sbab, sy skali-skali -sbagaimana pesan Faza Ibnu Ubaidillah/Faza Meon- harus [punya semangat] "anti-mainstream" sedikit. Jadi, ap udah boleh dibuatin artikelnya blum? --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 02:09, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

• Kalau sumbernya memadai, mengapa tidak? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:00, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Minta review-nya, om. Satu lagi om, tlg jelaskan kpd beta ttg perilaku "anti-mainstream" secara luas. Atas penjelasan om Woodrich, sy berucap trima kasi. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 08:16, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

• Sepertinya sudah cukup, tapi hati2... jangan sampai bahasanya terlalu promosional. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:38, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Promosi? Ide yg bagus, om Sy kira sy tdk promosi. Tapi, "anti-mainstream" itu [kabarnya] artinya itu adalah di luar kebiasaan, kan? --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 08:51, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

• Maksudnya yang seperti "belum bulat setahun" dsb. Kalau anti-mainstream, boleh dianggap anti-popular atau anti-hal-hal yang disukai orang awam. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:55, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Klo Phineas and Ferb (sering nonton d RCTI jam 7 pagi) termasuk anak2 yg "anti-mainstream" gx kak? Sbab, mereka sring mengada-ngada. Mulai dari membuat benteng yg menjulang hingga sekian puluh (atw bahkan ratusan) kaki, membuat roket, membawa sapi k bulan, dll. Habis itu, d Indonesia film utk anak2 pertama itu dibuat pada thn brapa sih? Thn '50-an sdh ada gak? --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 07:55, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

• Film yang ditujukan terkhusus untuk anak sudah ada pada tahun... 60-an sepertinya. Tapi baru booming akhir2 ini. Kalau Phineas and Ferb rasanya tidak masuk bagian dari counterculture yang menjadi tandanya "anti-mainstream". — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:28, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Di kranten ada 'gak koran2 yg menerangkan berita2 ttg film anak d Indonesia? Misalnya, dari De Sumatra Post, Java Bode, atw Bataviaasch Nieuwsblad? Kmudian, sayang skali film kartn yg sy sbut d atas rupanya tdk termasuk "anti-mainstream". Soalnya gini, kak, membawa monyet k luar angkasa itu 'kan udah biasa. Nah, skrg sapi yg dibawa k luar angkasa. Itu 'kan luar biasa. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 08:46, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

• Pada tahun 1960an sudah tidak ada koran berbahasa Belanda di Indonesia lagi. Orang2 Belanda udah lama diusir dari Nusantara. Adegan yang tidak logis tidak mesti anti-mainstream (dan soal sapi di luar angkasa, sudah lama ada "Hey Diddle Diddle"). Anti-mainstream mengartikan diri sebagai oposisi yang disengaja terhadap hal-hal yang dianggap "mainstream". Apakah tidak ada artikel counterculture dalam berbahasa Indonesia? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:57, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Tidak. Tapi, skali2 boleh dicoba oleh para antariksawan d negeri Amerika. Lalu, masalah koran. Kan kata om, "Orang2 Belanda udah lama diusir dari Nusantara" tapi kayaknya baru mau akhir thn 50'an lah org2 Belanda itu semua pada diusir kcuali org2 yg keukeuh (kukuh) hatinya, sperti Fritz G. Schadt, André Joseph Guillaume Henri Kostermans, dll. Tapi sialnya, tiada org Indo (atawa Belanda) yg mau kerja d pers (thn. 60-an) --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 09:11, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

• Maksud saya memang bukan setiap individu yang merupakan orang Belanda (Zoetmulder dkk. masih di Indonesia pada tahun2 itu). Tetapi mereka tetaplah kaum yang tersingkirkan, yang tidak menduduki posisi kekuasaan, dan karena itu tidak dimungkinkan untuk mengembangkan pers tersendiri. Soal orang Indo tidak masuk pers lagi pada tahun 1950an, aku merasa mungkin cenderung seperti itu... tapi masih ada yang ikut pers. Dekker, misalnya. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:33, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Aduh, kok pembicaraan kita malah makin ngelantur, 'ya? Baiklah, Dekker. Dekker itu kerja d pers klo gak salah pada awal-awal abad ke 19. Om lihat pada De Expres dia, dan bagaimana dia sering berdebat dengan Karel Zaalberg yg sdh jelas lebih mendukung orang Indo ketimbang bangsa sy sendiri om, bangsa Indonesia. Lalu, waktu Dekker masuk Islam, dia kan banyak nulis di majalah Hikmah, majalahnya Masyumi. Tuan boleh baca di Douwes Dekker:Sang Inspirator Revolusi (Tempo:November 2012). Lalu Kostermans, sepengetahuan sy, org ini pernah kerja buat LIPI d bagian botani. Artinya, masih ada org Indo yg mau kerja buat pemerintah (Indonesia). Tapi, ngomong2 ttg nasibnya org2 Indo itu, memang sungguh memprihatinkan. Ada yg sampe k Belanda, langsung dibeda-bedakan, sbab ada yg org Belanda tapi kulitnya sawo matang. Sbenarnya, sy ini ngomongkan nasib org Indo, sebab sy masih punya keturunan Belanda -kata bpk sy, om. Makanya, sy prihatin melihat nasibnya org2 Indo. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 11:24, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

• Wekek, ngelantur dikit gpp, kan? Memang ada orang Indo yang bekerja untuk pemerintah, tetapi pada awal revolusi semua orang Indo itu dipandang sebagai mata-mata atau calon mata-mata. Bukanlah kebetulan kalau perempuan penggoda dalam Darah dan Doa itu perempuan Indo... dan memang banyak yang dibunuh pada periode Bersiap (akhir tahun 1945) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:20, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Klo kaka ingin cari populasi org Indo terbanyak di Kalimantan Barat, carilah di daerah Kabupten Bengkayang dkat Malaysia. D sana, waktu jaman perang revolusi hingga thn. 60-an, org2 Belanda yg gx bisa pulang k Belanda yg padahal kelahiran Kalimantan, pada akhirnya banyak yg lari ke itu kabupaten. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 02:36, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Kak, sy mulai jenuh membicarakan asal-usul diri sy (org Indo). Ada yg sy hendak tanyakan, sbentar lagi sy mau menulis artikel Mohammad Natsir dgn memakai buku otobiografi org lain, yakni buku Douwes Dekker yg sy sbut di atas. Masalahnya, penulis & kontributor itu buku mencapai lebih dari 30 org, jadi gimana? Apakah sy menulis para penulis beserta kontributornya itu "Setiadi, Purwanto (Penanggung Jawab), dkk." atw "Setiadi, Purwanto (Penanggung Jawab), et al."? --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 05:40, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

• Et al. boleh, atau juga boleh berdasarkan penulis artikel atau bab. Ada pula biografi Natsir yang dapat diperoleh... saya pernah lihat satu di Gramedia. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:08, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

Jadi gimana? Ap penulisannya harus "Setiadi dkk. (2012), hal.150-51."? Atw bagaimana? --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 06:12, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

Soekarno: Indonesia Merdeka

Dalam waktu yang tidak lama, akan tayang film Soekarno: Indonesia Merdeka mulai Desember depan. Teringin rasanya saya membuat dan mengembangkannya hingga menjadi AP di WBI, karena film ini mengisahkan bapak proklamator Indonesia, Ir. Soekarno. Namun, saya kebingungan mencari sumber yang berkaitan. Bang Woodrich, saya ingin bertanya, saya lihat, di artikel ?, terdapat banyak sekali sember, nah, darimanakah anda mendapat sumbernya? Apakah di Google atau apa? Soalnya saya ingin mencari sebanyak-banyaknya rujukan mengenai film ini dengan harapan bisa menjadi artikel yang berkualitas. Nah, kalau seperti ini, peluang artikel ini untuk menjadi AP di WBI menjadi terbuka lebar. Terima kasih. Hanamanteo (talk) 05:06, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

• Google. Tapi tunggulah, sampai filmnya keluar. Awal Januari mungkin... banyak sekali resensi film yang bisa didapat. Kalau DVD-nya sudah keluar malah lebih baik lagi. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:29, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Yet another DYK related Q from me

Hi Crisco, sorry to keep asking you questions about DYK; but I have another. How many DYKs would you consider a reasonable number in regard to helping format the hooks for prep areas? Thanks again for all the help; Matty.007 16:09, 23 November 2013 (UTC)

• For editing the prep areas you don't need a set amount of DYKs. You need to know the DYK process, however, and be sure that you check the pages for issues before promoting them. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:35, 23 November 2013 (UTC)
  • I'm not planning on doing anything like that yet, probably when I am closer to 50 DYKs, but I was wondering what you felt a good amount of experience was. Thanks, Matty.007 08:58, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Prep 4

Hi Crisco, I just noticed you are working on the queues and prep areas at the moment. Sorry to be a complete pain but did you see I had posted a note at WT:DYK about the hook for Wellington Suspension Bridge presently in Prep 4? Perhaps it's not possible to change it though .... SagaciousPhil - Chat 10:42, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

• I didn't do Prep 4 and was just intent on getting something to queue. If there is a date request and you (or the nominator) have an issue with the article running now, there is no issue against pulling it from prep. Just make sure to move the template a bit further south (to the special holdings area) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:44, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi Crisco, thanks for the prompt response - no, it wasn't a specific date request, per se, it was simply it is scheduled to run during the night and I would be in the land of nod while it was appearing (and also it's about a bridge in Scotland so probably of more interest during UK day time). I did also leave a note on Gilderien's page but I do appreciate there aren't many approved hooks to work with just now. SagaciousPhil - Chat 11:02, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

• I don't think there is an issue if you move it to Prep 2 (evening in UK, I believe). Prep 1 is full, but you could probably trade an American hook. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:05, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

I didn't think I could do that as I'm the nominator - and article creator? SagaciousPhil - Chat 11:12, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

• Fair enough. I've done it (switch to prep 1). — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:23, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Crisco, I was hoping you could weigh in on my talk page; Cwmhiraeth has a question about a joint nom with another user, who just had a nom rejected due to attribution issues with material copied from CC sources (and the consequent huge reduction in text that could be considered "new").

Delisting feature picture

You have voted on the delisting of US Postal Currency 5 cent 1862 1863. Some new information has been presented. Would you consider reviewing your vote?

The deletion request was started because it was assumed that File:US-Fractional (1st Issue)-$0.05-Fr.1231.jpg was the same currency as File:US Postal Currency 5 cent 1862 1863.jpg. The Fr.1231 currency was in better condition so it should replace "US Postal Currency 5 cent 1862 1863" as the featured image. They are not the same. The older file is of type Fr.1230 because it has an ABC monogram on the back. As a security measure, the US Post Office had the front and back of the bills printed by two companies. The back of the Fr.1230 was printed by the American Banknote Company and their ABC monogram appears in the lower right corner. The Fractional currency (United States) article explains the difference but does not show an example. -- SWTPC6800 (talk) 18:41, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Image question

As you're an image minded sort of chap, I thought I'd check this with you. This version of an article I've been working on has several images. I've removed quite a few of them as I think they are dubious. They're probably PD in their place of origin, but I think they fall foul of US Copyright under the 1996 thing (whose name escapes me and I haven't the patience to chase it up!). Yet they are on Commons. But I'd like a second opinion. Also, on that article (D'Oliveira affair), is there any scope for a fair use image such as B. J. Vorster or Basil D'Oliveira. I suspect it's not justified, but again I'd like your opinion as you are rather better than me at this kind of thing. Thanks! Sarastro1 (talk) 21:07, 27 November 2013 (UTC)

Alhamdulillah dan....

Bung, sy bersyukur karna klo d sini, AP harus diperiksa panjang lebar (lebih2 dlm hal bhs.) dan apa sebabnya, faktor ke-tatabahasa-an itu [klo dilihat] paling penting dlm penilaian/syarat satu artikel sbelum menjadi AP? Toh di id.wp aja, syarat ke-tatabahasa-an aja gx penting2 amat?

Yg kedua, film suara yg paling awal d dunia itu apa judulnya, dan kapan diciptakan? Dan waktu awal-awal penciptaan film suara, bagaimana cara memasukkan suara k dlm film yg kita target? Lalu, ap sbabnya daerah2 sperti Kalimantan Barat itu yang sejarahnya masih "gelap" itu ref. nya harus dirujuk memakai koran-koran Belanda (terutama waktu zaman Bersiap hingga rentang thn. 50-an akhir) gak seperti sejarah org2 d P. Jawa yg "terang boelan benderang"?

Hmmm.... tuan mulai menyindir.... sy rasa nggak. Buku2 botani [yg 1/4-nya itu sy pinjam dari perpus sekolah] itu ejaannya bagus semua, kok. Tatabahasa-nya sy kira bagus, lalu, huruf. Huruf dlm buku2 sy tdk kurang, tdk pula lebih melainkan semuanya sudah di-edit dgn baik, walaupun buku2 yg lain, sy tak tahu nasib mereka. O ya, satu lagi. Ap beda bhs. Inggris (yg ada d Britania) dan yg ada d Amerika? Atas jawaban tuan, sy berucap terima kasih. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 06:37, 30 November 2013 (UTC)

• I don't think so. Should be all OK as it is - there's not much from her time we can use, as she's too 'new', and didn't get into any US productions, so the opportunities for finding free images are very slim. - SchroCat (talk) 09:34, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/The Carpet from Bagdad/archive1

I looked over the article structure in light of your suggestion to merge the fairly stubby Marketing section and indeed did so, although in a slightly different manner than you'd proposed. I'd love to see what you think of the current state of The Carpet from Bagdad, especially if you've got time to give it a closer examination. Your silent film articles may hail from the other side of the Pacific from mine, but I've certainly noticed your work on Indonesian arts and culture topics. Hopefully, I can start getting some of the lost American films of the 1910s to join them at FA. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 16:20, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

A few things

Crisco, I would appreciate your help with a few things, if at all possible:

• I got this reply from a ping to Maury Markowitz on a couple of QPQs he owes. I'm at a loss for what to say: perhaps you can think of something?
• Template:Did you know nominations/Roman Putin – can you please take a look at this one and see whether the X is appropriate, and if not take whatever next step ought to be done?
• Template:Did you know nominations/Elizabeth (BioShock) – as Victuallers and I seem to be coming from completely different positions (and neither of us is actually reviewing this), might you check it out or even finish the review or give your opinion of the hooks?

Hi Crisco. You previously pitched in on this article and I was hoping you could provide some fresh perspective here. The challenge, or so it would seem, is to create a section title besides "Controversies" per WP:Criticism, but that is not as watered down as "Pricing and performance."

image status on DYK nom

Hi Crisco, if you get the chance would you mind having a look at the Lilian Bland DYK nomination, please? I'm not sure about the image as although it has a US PD tag, it also has a 'possibly un-free' template. SagaciousPhil - Chat 17:34, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

• Have replied at the deletion discussion. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:33, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, much appreciated! SagaciousPhil - Chat 23:57, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Crisco, I can see you've been uploading some other images for this (I always seem to manage to give you more work to do!). The DYK nominator appears to have just been indefinitely blocked [2] but I guess I can try contacting the article creator Andrew Gray? Or can the 'main/alternate' account take over? I was going to suggest either holding the nomination until the image concerns are clarified or running the hook (once I've double checked the rest of the DYK criteria) without an image - or maybe substituting one of the others you've found ... but would they reproduce well enough? SagaciousPhil - Chat 09:21, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

I drafted most of the article but AD moved it to mainspace & added the image. I'll have a look at this tonight when I've some free time. Andrew Gray (talk) 12:44, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

Okay, here's my conclusion: I have no evidence at all but I'm really quite confident that image was published around the time of the flight. Bland faded from public attention very fast; nothing was then written about her until the 1960s. It seems quite unlikely these photos were taken, not published, and then unearthed for the first time in her eighties.

The article is an unfinished mess, though (it was a userspace draft) and really needs some cleaning. I'll see if I can do some before it goes live. Andrew Gray (talk) 22:29, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

• Sorry, you caught me just before flying out to Jakarta. I will try and take a look. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:32, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

Uncle David FA

Hello there Crisco. Given your previous work on Frank's Cock, I was wondering if you might be interested in having a look over at Uncle David, a similarly LGBT-themed avant-garde film that is currently undergoing FAC.

All the best, Midnightblueowl (talk) 12:34, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/Vardges Sureniants

Crisco, I know you're in Jakarta right now—I hope you're having a great time—but I'm hoping that as someone who works from foreign language sources and does his own translating, you'll understand the issue here and whether it even is an issue. For some reason, NinaGreen and/or Proudbolsayhe have decided that I'm an expert, but you'll know what the issues are here, if any are indeed germane. Thank you very much. (If it just isn't in the cards, please let me know and I'll try to find someone else to handle it.) The original request was made on my talk page. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:34, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

Possible POTD and a question.

Hi Crisco- I was thinking about putting up a $1,000 1882 Gold Certificate for POTD January 11th (Alexander Hamilton's birthday). On commons there is Media of the Day, which does not appear to require any featuring process. There is a 5 minute video, a rap song written about Alexander Hamilton, that I was thinking of submitting, but I wanted your opinion if it was too long, not appropriate, etc. Many thanks.-Godot13 (talk) 02:11, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

• Re: MOTD (Commons): That's perfectly fine. They've shown 15-minute works before. POTD should be fine. Do you want to do the honours yourself (i.e. write the blurb?) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:47, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

• I'll take a shot at the blurb... Spent 4 hours scanning Indonesian bank notes today (at 800dpi). Just grabbing every different type and will sort out later (so far 1950's and 1960's). Some beautiful designs...-Godot13 (talk) 00:21, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi there, I understand you are busy with your thesis but I just wanted to ask you if you find this piece of information added by User:Korny O'Near acceptable for inclusion for the 61st Oscars. I am wondering if it sounds too gossipy or sensationalistic for a featured list.

Bowman herself has claimed that she was made to sign a gag order the next day prohibiting her from speaking to the press about her performance for the next 13 years.

Hi Crisco- I made the request for a higher resolution image of the Star Spangled Banner. I had no idea what I was in for... The request needs to go through their publicity office as it is classified as an iconic national treasure. I will follow up with them as it is crazy that the English Wikipedia article does not even have an image of the entire object.

Edit warring at Talk:Claude Monet

Sorry, didn't notice the WikiBreak message

Hey, Crisco, would you mind handling this, or pointing it to another uninvolved admin who could? User:Modernist is editwarring at Talk:Claude Monet. I gave him a 3RR warning, which he deleted from his talk page within minutes and continued with another revert at Talk:Claude Monet. Sorry to be a pain in your ass. Curly Turkey (gobble) 11:53, 16 December 2013 (UTC) For what it's worth - he started an insulting thread attacking me and another editor regarding a dispute at the Monet article - which I've been working on since 2006. He's contributed 1 edit (yesterday) to the article - I've contributed many hours and more than 350 edits there. Please settle this dispute; appreciated...Modernist (talk) 12:00, 16 December 2013 (UTC) (talk page stalker) I don't want to get embroiled in this, but Modernist, that sounds a little like the ""I have spent hours editing this article. You are vandalising my work!"" example given on Wikipedia:Ownership of articles. Just my personal opinion though, I appreciate that you have significantly helped the article. Best, Matty.007 12:06, 16 December 2013 (UTC) Yeah, I can understand what you're saying - but it's not about the article it's about the personal attacks on the talk page...Modernist (talk) 12:09, 16 December 2013 (UTC) Just to be clear---I'm not asking for any admin to waste their time wading through Modernist's personal attacks, I'd just like to see the editwarring dealt with appropriately. Curly Turkey (gobble) 12:22, 16 December 2013 (UTC) There wasn't any editwarring only inappropriate accusations...Modernist (talk) 12:27, 16 December 2013 (UTC) (talk page stalker) Like Matty.007, I do not want to get embroiled in this either, but yes, there has been edit warring too (over the title) - as well as a lot of personal attacks going in various directions. - SchroCat (talk) 12:53, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi,

I saw that this was closed. I still thank you for supporting it. Meanwhile, I made a new version of this document, which is of much better quality than the previous one: File:La Cosmographie de Claude Ptolemée.pdf (PDF format this time, because I didn't manage to make a DJVU file as good as this PDF). Do you think I can renominate it? How so? Thanks, Yann (talk) 13:13, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

I'd like to use it for Wikipedia:Today's featured article/December 26, 2013 but I'm always a bit wary of taking images from places other than the FA in question without getting a second pair of eyes. Thanks, Bencherlite^Talk 19:41, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

• I wouldn't use it. That's a fairly professional looking image, from an editor with very few edits, and no EXIF data. Suspicious in the best of circumstances. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:14, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

AV-8B FAC

Hi Crisco 1492, due to your extensive FAC experience, I'm wondering if you are willing to have a look at McDonnell Douglas AV-8B Harrier II and provide some comments and insight at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/McDonnell Douglas AV-8B Harrier II/archive2. Regards, --Sp33dyphil ©^hat_ontributions 05:25, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

• I may, once I have time, but I am still in Jakarta and do not have a regular connection. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:27, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

Another image question ...

Hi Crisco, sorry I know you're really busy and sort of on a wiki-break at the moment but if you get the chance could you tell me if the license on this image [3] is okay for DYK? I sort of got my knuckles rapped over another image license recently so I'm weary of being in trouble again SagaciousPhil - Chat 16:54, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

Weary or wary? :) Matty.007 17:36, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

Wary - and now suitably chastised for brain and fingers on keyboard not being fully in synch (I guess I must also be too weary to think straight) SagaciousPhil - Chat 17:55, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

You'll be more wary next time. Matty.007 18:36, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

• File:Prince James Francis Edward Stuart by Anton Raphael Mengs.jpg is certainly PD. Mengs died almost 250 years ago, and this is a 2D reproduction of a 2D object (and thus the US does not recognise any new copyright for the photograph or scan). — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:58, 21 December 2013 (UTC)

FAC for Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey

You do rather solid, detailed, insightful FAC reviews. If you have the time in the next few days, could you take a look at the FAC for Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey? I'd appreciate your comments and suggestions for improvement.--ColonelHenry (talk) 20:56, 21 December 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/Chain Reaction (sculpture)

Crisco, I have no idea when you're returning from Jakarta, but in case it's relatively soon, there's a disagreement over a picture of a fairly recent public sculpture in the US and whether a picture of it is valid for use on DYK. Regardless, have a wonderful time—and, if you're still there, holiday—while you're there; I hope you find everything you need for your research. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:15, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

• Done, though Masem seems to have gotten there first. Lots for my thesis, and lots for Wikipedia. I think I now have the sources to bring Roekiah and D. Djajakusuma (at the very least) to FA. God knows I got another dozen pictures of Roekiah that we can use. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:09, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

• Great! Thank you so much, and glad the time in Jakarta has been very productive. Best of luck with the future FACs! BlueMoonset (talk) 01:12, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Meng-update arsip di archive.org

Om Woodrich, sy tadi meng-update situs Pemerintah Provinsi Kalimantan Barat d Archive. Cuma, itu "kudet" (kurang update), mau sy update per-23 Desember 2013, sebagaimana d kalbarprov.go.id, kok sy gak bisa mengupdate versi 23 Des. 2013, om? Pertanyaan sy, bagaimana cara meng-update situs d archive.com, utk memperbaharui situs itu yg pernah ditulis sebelumnya. Ini adalah versi yg "kudet"-nya, om. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 13:00, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

• Sudah pernah menggunakan http://www.webcitation.org belum? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:05, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Pernah, om Woodrich prnah trangkan hal itu pd sy, cuma,,,, sy mmbca prmbritahuan bhw situs Webcitation.com itu mau ditutup gara2 kurang biaya. Makanya, om, sy bralih pake archive.com. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 02:28, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

• Pemberitahuan tersebut sudah hilang dari situs mereka. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:06, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Oooo..... jadi, WebCite sdh "kaya" lagi, tak "hidup kekurangan" lagi? --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 07:35, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

• Nah, itu tidak bisa saya jawab. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:37, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Makanya, sy justru menghindari itu WebCite. Khawatir nanti jadi ditutup, eh.... rupanya situs2 yg dulu sy pernah arsip di situ malah hilang "ke laut", dan tak pernah kembali. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 07:39, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Banknotes

Hi Crisco-

The first batch of "earlier" Indonesian banknotes (1946-1948) can be found here. I've got about 80 or so to process. Not all the series are complete (the two posted are), but a nice assortment from most of the issues from the 1940's through 1970's. - Godot13 (talk) 03:49, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

• Those are beautiful. We really should have an article on the Java Bank (I think I started something in user space, but I'm usually drawn more to military history and popular culture). — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:58, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
  • If you've got a draft going we can work on it... I can turn the images into a table to accompany the article... Just a thought.-Godot13 (talk) 20:39, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
    • I've got User:Crisco 1492/Java Bank. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:38, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
      • Looking around a bit. Take a look at De Javasche Bank (section) of this article and let me know if developing a separate article (without going into significant detail) would be duplicating effort...-Godot13 (talk) 23:02, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
        • That section is long enough that it would be best split (or merged into the article in my user space). — Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:00, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
          • Okay. A few references which may cover most of the bases: 1) A book on the De Javasche Bank, dated (1918), but good background; 2) official website of the bank containing an 8-file history; 3) a website giving the history of the bank officers; and 4) from the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank archives, a 1930 Bank of Java Annual Report (brief). When you get a chance (I know you're doing thesis research...), let me know what you think of these sources.--Godot13 (talk) 04:49, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
            • Very cool, all of the sources look useful. Here's hoping a stalker or two (or a stalkee perhaps) sees this. The Batavia (Jakarta) branch is now the Bank of Indonesia museum... if the weather clears up I may try and get a photograph. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:26, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
              • What have you ever needed my help for, Crisco? Drmies (talk) 13:11, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
                • LOL! Only when I went to leave a message did I understand why Drmies replied... There is also an article on nlwiki, but it's very brief.-Godot13 (talk) 19:21, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
                  • My good doctor, of course for reading Dutch! Well, you or Google translate...
                  • Godot: Yeah, I noticed. But something is better than nothing. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:07, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
• Hi Crisco- I'm working up a draft of a banknote table that could possibly accompany an article. It may be over-inclusive right now but there is a 1947 series (Republik Indonesia) I haven't worked up yet that shows how currency was being issued by two banks simultaneously prior to the 1949 Java Bank nationalization.--Godot13 (talk) 06:14, 26 December 2013 (UTC)
  • Quite nice. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense, as from 1945 to 1949 both the Republican government and the Dutch colonial one (often as the Netherlands Indies Civil Administration) were vying for power, and both claiming sovereignty over the archipelago. It's particularly fun for writing articles like Djaoeh di Mata. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:36, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Welcome back!

Hope you had a wonderful holiday and are heading into an excellent New Year! Very glad to have you back among us. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:05, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• <spooky voice>Among the living</spooky voice> Thanks, glad to be back... though yesterday I got to thinking the house spent the whole three weeks I was gone planning how to have its revenge on me. Electricity is still touch and go. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:07, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• Yikes! I wouldn't want to be touched by electricity! (I would want it to touch the lights and the computer and keep the internet connection running, though.) Do you have a backup power supply that helps smooth out power availability?

I suppose now wouldn't be an ideal time to ask you to take a look at Template:Did you know nominations/Women in Philippine art, but it's been sitting for about four weeks, apparently waiting for a second opinion from an experienced DYK reviewer, so I'm hoping you can give an opinion when you get the chance. Thank you very much. (I had already asked Orlady for a similar favor a few hours ago, so with you back, I didn't have to ask her again.) BlueMoonset (talk) 04:21, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Crisco, when you've got time, would you mind taking another look at Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of currencies in Europe/archive1 please? I would quite like some action on the page, so that I can have more of a chance. Thanks, Matty.007 20:19, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Checkers speech

See footnote 58.--Wehwalt (talk) 09:12, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• Alright. However, you seem to have taken more than you were supposed to... -1400 characters? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:37, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

I noticed a couple of badly sourced things that slipped through, and that really had no place in the article. Fairly POV.--Wehwalt (talk) 11:54, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• Alright, fair enough. Was just curious to see that disappear without a mention — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:08, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• I was more concerned about addressing your point, actually, the others I quickly saw as junk stuff. I try to keep up with all edits to articles I'm concerned with, but it's an imperfect science, especially when I'm out of touch for a few days or stuff gets covered over on my watchlist by subsequent edits. Haven't noticed much film stuff moving, how's that going?--Wehwalt (talk) 12:31, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• Three weeks with very little access to internet will do that to a person (i.e. not much time online). However, I have an absolute wealth of photographs from the 1940s through 1950s that I digitized, so our articles will be a lot better illustrated. I also think I have enough to bring Roekiah and D. Djajakusuma to FAC, once I utilize the new sources. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:33, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• Excellent, archive delving is a joy indeed. Amazing what is out there that no one had any idea was PD.--Wehwalt (talk) 23:20, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• Indeed... just getting access to magazines from the period is a blessing, considering how few libraries seem to stock them. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:24, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

POTD January 11

Hi Crisco- Would you mind having a look at this description just to make sure that it is okay/appropriate. The statement about Hamilton being the only non-native member of the Founding Fathers is cited in the article, and I verified the source article directly for accuracy. I'm open to making any changes you suggest. Also, do I need to put this info into another area? Thanks.--Godot13 (talk) 19:58, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Yup... somehow I've already messed this up by putting a commons POTD template on it... oops.-Godot13 (talk) 20:16, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• LOL. I've copyedited the blurb a little. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:27, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Very much appreciated.-Godot13 (talk) 23:37, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Template:POTD/2013-12-28

Hi Crisco, and welcome back. I (hopefully) improved the caption on tomorrow's POTD (actually just before you created the protected version) to replace trivial measurements with a better summary of the article. I don't want to break anything, so could you check the new caption and copy it to Template:POTD_protected/2013-12-28? Many thanks, ~HueSatLum 01:19, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

• Sure, makes for easier reading. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:29, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

The imagemap on Template:POTD protected/2013-12-28 contains a wrong link to the firs file. It should be "File:Arborophila_brunneopectus_male_-_Kaeng_Krachan.jpg" instead of "https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Arborophila_brunneopectus_male_-_Kaeng_Krachan.jpg". Could you fix this? Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 01:39, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Crisco, I'm sure you've seen that I've got Bibliography of E.W. Hornung at FLC at the moment. All the images on the page are newly uploaded to Commons (by me), and I wonder if you wouldn't mind running your eye over them to make sure they are all OK? Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 09:13, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• What's the status in Britain? You'd need to know the cover artist for that, usually. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:28, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• Should be OK: they are all old enough to pass in the UK (I think), and I've tried to use US editions wherever possible to limit the double status clearance. - SchroCat (talk) 09:49, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• Also, make sure the date parameters are filled in correctly. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:29, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• I thought they were—unless I'm missing something obvious (which is highly likely!) - SchroCat (talk) 09:52, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• Well, some of them say "2013-..." for instance (File:Notes of a Camp Follower.png) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:44, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• Ah - that was dropped in by the upload wizard (and I thought that meant it was right). They'll all be wrong on that score, so I'll tweak accordingly (and presume that just a year is sufficient, rather than a more specific date). Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 12:06, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• Right, just the year. The date is probably from EXIF data or something, but that's certainly not what you're looking for. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:10, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• All sorted - it's the top ten uploads on this lot. The most recent book was 1919 and all bar one (I think) are the US editions. The single British work is A Bride from the Bush – 1890.PNG: does this also need a UK tag too? - SchroCat (talk) 12:17, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia featured picture / File:Burj Khalifa.jpg

Hi Crisco, Could you let me know how I can find when the Wikipedia featured picture / File:Burj Khalifa.jpg will be listed in the Wikipedia Today's featured picture? Warm regards --Donaldtong (talk) 01:21, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

The following message came from Armbrust talk page;

Hi Armbrust, Would you give me a tip of how I can find the Wikipedia featured picture / File:Burj Khalifa.jpg will be or will not be selected in the Wikipedia Today's featured picture? Thanks in advance --Donaldtong (talk) 07:14, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

The featured pictures for the Picture of the day panel of the Main Page are selected (mostly) in the order they were promoted. I don't see any reason, why this picture shouldn't be selected, but I have no idea, when this will happen. The selection of the images is done by Crisco 1492, so it would be better if you would ask him about this. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 08:43, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

• Thanks Armbrust for letting me know. The ping didn't work, for some reason. If it goes in accordance with order of promotion, sometime in 2015 is most likely. However, if you want it run earlier just let me know. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:57, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Thank you Crisco for your replied answer. Would it be possible if this image File:Burj Khalifa.jpg can run earlier in the Wikipedia Today's featured picture? Thanks in advance --Donaldtong (talk) 13:46, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• Certainly. Any particular date in mind?14:00, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
  • Would it be possible to be listed on 2 November 2014? Many thanks --Donaldtong (talk) 23:27, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
    • Sure. It's scheduled here. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:38, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
      • Awesome! Thank you so much Crisco! May I take this opportunity to say, Wishing you to have a great and happy new year! --Donaldtong (talk) 09:00, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/Supreme Court of the Republic of Texas

Crisco, it looks like this one is turning toxic, and there's been a call for an admin. Maybe I shouldn't be the one to go looking for one, but I'd like it to be someone familiar with DYK. Or should I have gone directly to WT:DYK with the admin request? Please let me know. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 08:32, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

• Likely... hope it's not ruining your night. Happy new year to you too! I had a fun enough one, though 2014 has been boring so far. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:32, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

• Thanks for stepping in. That hook was pretty much what I had in mind when I made my suggestions earlierbut he was damned if he'd listen to me. (I'm so tired of it that I'm going to ignore that December 1836 to January 1840 isn't what I'd call four years, but it doesn't surprise me that he doesn't care.) I don't know why I'm butting heads with people this week; Victuallers has his knickers in a twist over an approval he made that I went to promote but found I couldn't when I checked the article. Maybe I need to take a break from DYK—I can't believe I was typing this while 2013 turned to 2014 here and I didn't even notice. Not really how I wanted to start 2014, but I'm definitely hoping it gets better and better from here. Come to think of it, being free of that mess is a good augur...

• Three years it is then (I was going by years alone, but you're right... it's much closer to three). Get some sleep, rest, watch some Glee... you deserve it. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:04, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

DYK

Thanks for the DYK review. Any reason for the AGF tick? Thanks, Matty.007 10:31, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

• None in particular, no. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:32, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

Happy New Year, and thanks for your help.-Godot13 (talk) 08:27, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

• Thanks Godot. Now that is a very nice scan. Wow. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:29, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Agreed, well worth waiting for.--Wehwalt (talk) 11:16, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for all of your work

Thank you very much for all of your work on Indonesian films, &c. I love your seemingly regular DYK articles on these topics. and congratulations on getting Article of the Day for Gagak Item. Keep up the good work. —  AjaxSmack  22:51, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

• Thanks Ajax! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:43, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

Your nom

I see it. I am holding off on reviews until at least this weekend. I wind up not that far from you on this trip, globally speaking, as I will be in Canberra and Sydney at the end of Feb/beginning of March.--Wehwalt (talk) 10:43, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

• No worries. Have a safe trip (and if you are in the area [a bit closer than Oz], feel free to drop by! I have plenty of coins if you want to collect 'em, though probably too damaged to be worth anything later). — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:06, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

I don't think I own very much in the Indonesian sphere, there might be a couple of aluminum pieces in my "junk bag" (sorry). I think I have a Netherlands East Indies 1 cent with the hole in it somewhere around, but I'd have to hunt for it. I'll be in Singapore in April 2015, that's in your ballpark. Lafayette dollar, the first of the two coin articles that person from Porlock on my talk kept distracting me from, is in mainspace, if you want to do the DYK, which should probably be about it being the first US coin to feature a US citizen.--Wehwalt (talk) 22:41, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

• Yeah, I know, they aren't very good quality. But the 1,000 rupiah piece is pretty decent, and the pre-2000 stuff seems to have been made out of something other than aluminium. Will take a look. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:45, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

• I think it was from the 1950s or 1960s. I think they sold a lot of them to companies that marketed them to kids, like the Littleton Coin Co. Low denomination. On my one very brief visit to Indonesia, to an industrial island near Singapore, I saw no coins, everything was paper money.--Wehwalt (talk) 00:47, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

• Really? If it was Batam, I can kinda understand that (it's a relatively expensive place to live, and the coins used to be a maximum of 500 rupiah [5 cents, give or take]). Interesting! I rather like the old 50-rupiah coins (this one)... nice design, I think, though quite small. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:57, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Congrats on the TFA Crisco and Happy New Year!!♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:50, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

• Thanks Blofeld! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:06, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
• From me too, Crisco. Looks like a fun flick. Have you seen all those movies you've written up? Have a great 2014, Drmies (talk) 14:51, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
  • Sadly, no Drmies. The ones I've been writing about are lost (or at least none of the sources I've seen know where they are). Djaoeh Dimata is at Sinematek Indonesia, but when I asked they told me it wasn't in viewing condition. The last film FA I wrote on something I've seen was Pengkhianatan G30S/PKI, which was a... lengthy... work. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:53, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
    • Oops, yes, I forgot about your ongoing fight against oblivion. Your efforts are greatly appreciated. I hope to get back to our bird at some point; I got the sources in my office, but internet access at home has been spotty: the cable guy is coming this afternoon. Drmies (talk) 16:15, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
      • Thanks, Dr. I really wish I could help more than I have so far. At least I'll be able to copyedit for y'all. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:45, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

UK signatures

Hi Crisco, just looked at File:Sheridan Smith signature.png: I thought signatures from the UK were not allowed? - SchroCat (talk) 20:38, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

• Since it is uploaded on the English Wikipedia, UK copyright law doesn't matter too much. The important thing is that it's public domain in the US. Now, as to whether it is or not... that's not my expertise. I suspect so, though. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:11, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
