Draft:Duncan Barber - AfC

edit

Hello everyone. I have created the draft Duncan Barber (businessman). Barber is a welsh engineer and latterly a businessman specialising in aeronautics. He lives in Penarth, and is also a car enthusiast. If any AfC reviewers have the time or inclination to review the draft, I would be most grateful. Thanks - Mac Edmunds (talk) 22:00, 23 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Now reviewed - perhaps someone might be interested in assessing Barber’s Welsh importance? Mac Edmunds (talk) 09:30, 24 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Draft:William Owen (composer)

edit

Project members may wish to assist this article in passing a draft review (it failed). Here is the subject's entry in the Dictionary of Welsh Biography so the subject is clearly notable. Best.4meter4 (talk) 03:10, 29 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Have added a couple of sources, and tidied up a bit. As we have an image, thanks to Jason NLW, we should use it, and the addition of an infobox may help at a subsequent review. Is there anything that could be taken, with attribution, from the existing article on Wicipedia, [1]? Regards. KJP1 (talk) 07:47, 29 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Logos - Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales sites

edit

We currently have logos at the top of the infoboxes for:

We have images for:

The Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales article doesn't have an IB, but does have its logo as the lead image. A question. Do the four sites where we haven't got logos actually have logos? If they do, we don't seem to have them in Commons. KJP1 (talk) 06:48, 4 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

@KJP1, all the museums used to have individual logos based on the pre-2022 logo (except Waterfront which had a unique one). See the archived page museum.wales/branding. But since the rebrand to Amgueddfa Cymru in 2022, and the subsequent deletion of that page soon after the rebrand, I assume all the individual museum logos were dropped for just one "Amgueddfa Cymru" logo used everywhere. (except Waterfront which still shows pictures of it on their Facebook). Haven't found any new post-2022 logos for the other museums.
So best to demote the old logos on those three, and prioritise the building on all of them? (and add Waterfront's?) DankJae 10:25, 4 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
DankJae - many thanks, and sorry for the delay in getting back. I will do that. Personally, I don't think the logos work that well as the lead images, but I see that the practice is followed on other cultural site articles, e.g. British Museum, National Gallery, although the logos are a bit less "radical".

Done - I checked the National Museum/St Fagans/Big Pit websites, and couldn't see those logos in use anymore. They all head up with Amgueddfa Cymru. KJP1 (talk) 18:34, 10 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
