Palladio (Jenkins)[edit]

  • Reviewed: Rosemond Mountain
  • Comment: One could almost say ... that you know Palladio? - so famous ;)

Created by Gerda Arendt (talk). Self nominated at 12:18, 10 February 2015 (UTC).

  • Created by Gerda Arendt on February 9, 2015 with 1656 characters (268 words) of readable prose. Well written and supported by inline citations throughout including the hook. However, there is a problem with this particular image uploaded to Commons with the Source: en.Wikipedia (!). No author from outside user space mentioned, no OTRS ticket provided, and not further proof that this portrait of a living person is free. Good to go without it.

  • I have nominated the image for speedy deletion on Commons as an obvious copyvio. The chances of a Wikipedia user having rights to an image first used by Boosey and Hawkes are nil. BencherliteTalk 08:05, 12 February 2015 (UTC)

Plan of La Rotonda

ALT1: ... that Karl Jenkins derived Palladio, a concerto grosso for string orchestra named after Palladio (plan pictured), from his TV commercial for De Beers diamonds? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:01, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
I must admit I don't see the point of that picture here, because it's not of Palladio and the hook would otherwise give the impression that the plan is of a building called Palladio. To explain it, you'd have to say "named after Palladio (drawing by Palladio pictured)", and that then shows the irrelevancy of the image. If it was my decision, I'd unpipe the hook for clarity so that it said "a concerto grosso for string orchestra named after Andrea Palladio". BencherliteTalk 15:37, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
