Toulouse image gallery edit

Salut, Balmario! I've been doing some work on the captions of the images in the Toulouse article, but there are a couple of yours that I don't recognise: Terracotta façade (19th c.), and 14th-century house. Would you happen be able to add a more specific title, such as the name of the buildings? No big deal if you can't, though. Cheers, Awien (talk) 16:37, 16 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

    Hi Awien. I did it on the article. Thank you for your work!

It's been fun - fond memories! Awien (talk) 19:24, 16 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Jacobins: Southern Gothic article and link edit

Thanks for the link, Balmario, and for creating the article. We needed it. Would you like me to proofread it for you? (I also notice a stray def. article in the English title of your web page, which would be better "Toulouse and brick"). Amicalement, Awien (talk) 19:33, 13 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

=> hi Awien, oh yes it would be nice, but the article has been deleted... :(

What?!? Why? Surely an important enough topic, when every version of every tuppenny-ha'penny video game has its own article! Sheesh. Awien (talk) 23:18, 13 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
Ok, the draft's still there. Maybe you're not allowed to link to it till it's accepted? So I'll still give it a quick proof, maybe later, more likely tomorrow. Bonne nuit, Awien (talk) 23:22, 13 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thanks a lot Awien :) --Balmario (talk) 08:01, 14 October 2018 (UTC)BalmarioReply

Southern French Gothic copyedit edit

Bonjour, Balmario. I'm stalled at the Octagonal "Toulouse" bell tower section because I don't understand it well enough myself to tweak the wording. Can you give me (or add to the article) a reference to your source? French is fine, of course. Or you could amplify with a fuller explanation since you're the knowledgeable one, and I'll tweak the English if necessary. (Your English is very good, btw, in spite of a few Gallicisms that creep in). Cheers, Awien (talk) 12:01, 15 October 2018 (UTC)Reply


Bonjour Awien. Thank you for your precious work, my english is bad and I have to rely on automatic translators. As for the section you are asking for, I didn't find a source in english. In french, there is for example this link : https://www.jacobins.toulouse.fr/le-clocher The title of this section is not very good, the fact is that style of octagonal tower bell was created in Toulouse, so in french it is called "toulousian bell tower". And by "spire" I mean only the arrow-like roof (some tower bells don't have), and not the entire tower bell... but I'm not sure this is the best translation. Again, thanks a lot :) --Balmario (talk) 23:02, 15 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

You're welcome ... and another request. Can you explain / amplify this bit: "there are also bays ogive". I changed that to "ogival bays", but that's not good either. Do you maybe mean that the roof of each bay is a rib vault?
The title looks fine to me, btw, and "spire" is also the mot juste for the pointy doodad on top.
Best, Awien (talk) 17:36, 17 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
Well, ogival bays looks fine... I've seen also "lancet windows" or "pointed windows" for this translation. --Balmario (talk) 22:16, 17 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Toulouse edit

Hi, Frédéric. I've glanced at your article, and see virtually no actual mistakes with the English. Congratulations! What I will try to do, though not all at once because of time constraints, is subdivide some of the long, complex sentences to simplify the structure. This is obviously a question of style rather than an actual problem, but modern English readers are just not used to navigating this kind of prose, not to mention that WP frowns on it. *sigh*
