Venus de Milo and The Thinker (what, are they dating?)
Two questions that could use input at the talk pages. Should Venus de Milo be italicized and how many (both during Rodin's lifetime and after) casts of The Thinker were made? Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:06, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
Help with Buffalo Center for Media Study article that I started from the to do list
Hi. I had found the request to create Buffalo Center for Media Study article through WikiProject Visual arts and WikiProject Sculpture > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Visual_arts/Things_you_can_do I chose the article based on that. However, once I started to research this group I do believe this group/deparment does meet notability requirements because of what they established together: The notable people worked together to create this department/group at a time that there was not any other program like it, and it is currently the oldest and longest standing media arts program in America. Those individuals became notable because of it, and the program/department continues to produce notable artists in New Media to this day. Suggestions, additions, and edits to improve the page are welcome.ArtistWatch MuseumSurvey (talk) 22:16, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

A Monument to Peace: Our Hope for the Children
I could really use help at A Monument to Peace: Our Hope for the Children. This monument has so many different titles, and some sources consider the work more than one sculpture. The current title is based on the International Peace Gardens website, which I considered the most 'official' of the sources I could find, but I'm definitely open to page moves if editors can argue why another title is better. Truly, any article improvements or talk page contributions would be helpful. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 02:27, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

Filippo Sgarlata
- On the Olympic Art competitors, my review of Category:1901 births just came across Filippo Sgarlata. He was a sculptor who was in the 1948 Olympic Arts competition. That is all our article says. The article was created by Lugnuts. the one source listed, Olympedia, has 3 paragraphs on Sgarlata. From the Olympedia article we learn that Sgarlata lived in the US from 1926-1932. We learn that he was a professor of sculpting in both Palermo and San Luca. He crfeated a gate for a notable building in 1961, and created some works that somehow were deemed to be "in line with fascists ideology". Is this one source enough to have this article survive? Porbably not? Was Sgarlata a notable sculptor? I am not sure, but really wish there was a way to get people to look into it more. I know there is a well developed set of notability criteria for artists, but I am less than sure what it is.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:46, 3 June 2022 (UTC)

James Lee Hansen
I was looking for information about the Lincoln statue at the old Los Angeles federal courthouse, which the building article says was by Hansen, but there's no page about him.

- Be bold! James Lee Hansen ---Another Believer (Talk) 05:51, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
- It turns out, there are two sculptors by that name! The one responsible for Young Lincoln was born in Fresno in 1917 (per the LA Times), and not the same person as the Washington-born sculptor you wrote about. I've made the link from Spring Street Courthouse a redlink to James Lee Hansen (1917–) to make it clear that these are different people. The older one has presumably died by now (he'd be 105) but the GSA web site doesn't say. 121a0012 (talk) 22:34, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

- The Smithsonian knows about the Fresno Hansen but gives his birth year as 1918; there is a Wikidata record for him (apparently imported from the Smithsonian database). The Smithsonian American Art Museum has his Family Group (commissioned for the Lisbon, North Dakota, post office) in storage. Finding anything else about him may be challening given that the Washington artist is much better known and still alive. 121a0012 (talk) 22:46, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

- oof this is a bit of a doozy. I feel like the description from an unnamed Twitter user of the sculpture as a "troll" probably isn't the best example of popular opinion. Would make more sense in my mind to list the fact that people were upset on the internet, and then include a quote or paraphrase from a news article/critic that sums up the popular reaction. Thoughts? 19h00s (talk) 22:17, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
- @19h00s I don't disagree, but I would recommend having this discussion on the article's talk page so other editors can weigh in there. ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:20, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Project-independent quality assessments
Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.
No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.
However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.
