User talk:Ivan Velikii (2006-2008)
Request for Usurpation[edit]
Hello, Ivan Velikii. A request has been made at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations to usurp, or "take over", your username because another user would like to use it to edit. The changing username guideline allows a username that is not being actively used to be usurped if the user is given an opportunity to object and does not do so.
If you have an email set in your preferences, you should be getting an email from a bureaucrat or changing username clerk explaining how to consent or object to this process.
If you do not object to being renamed to a new username in order for another user to use the name you currently have, please log in and post a reply here saying so (you may also tell us what username you would like to be renamed to, or we will provide you with a generic one).
If you do nothing: the request may be filled shortly, and your account will be moved to a generic username. You may request that it be moved to a new username of your choice at any time.
If you object to being renamed: please log in and make an edit to this page clearly stating that you object to usurpation.
Please note that even if your current username is usurped, you can still edit and your data will not be lost; your preferences, watchlist, and other user settings will be transferred to a new username.
Thank you for your time. 71.111.23.156 (talk) 04:18, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
License tagging for Image:Roman Nose, Fort Laramie, 1868.jpg[edit]

In this article title, his first name is spelled "Arseny", but in the article itself, it's spelled "Arseniy". Which one did you intend to use? Thank you, ugen64 22:31, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Bolding Cyrillic names[edit]
Please stop bolding Cyrillic names of Russian rulers. This does not comply with WP:STYLE. As the project is English, there is no need to shout Russian names. Ask User:Ezhiki for details. --Ghirla -трёп- 10:25, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
The Five/The Mighty Handful[edit]
I'm putting my response on your talk page, as well as at the page's discussion page, so that you see it.
- What would it change if "those Frenchies", as you choose to call them, had been involved? I made the change and I'm an American. I do happen to be a French music specialist. Does this make me unqualified to discuss this article?
- This isn't about how people "prefer" this group to be called: this is about standard English usage as is practiced in English-speaking countries. To quote Wikipedia:Naming_conventions
- "articles should be optimized for readers over editors; and for a general audience over specialists."
- I made the change because this is how this group is usuually refered to in English, as these very "standard" references prove. This is the English lanuage section of Wikipedia. I think that it's perfect that you use "Могучая кучка" in the Russian Language version, but most sources in English use "The Five". You will notice that after I made the name change, i also added the other names by which this group is known, as translated into English. Most English speakers will find "The Five" and then they will find the knowledge that, in Russian, this group is known as "The Mighty Handful". It seems to me that this will further people's education, since they won't know to look for the "Mighty Handful", but they WILL look for "the Five".
- What would it change if "those Frenchies", as you choose to call them, had been involved? I made the change and I'm an American. I do happen to be a French music specialist. Does this make me unqualified to discuss this article?
- The change was made almost a month ago and no one has noticed before. Perhaps you might want to bring this point up for discussion at the discussion page of the Wikiproject for composers and see what the general reaction is. Cordially Musikfabrik 19:16, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Can you help? Someone today changed occurrences of "Rimsky-Korsakov" to "Rimskiy-Korsakov" in the article Boris Godunov (opera). This is probably just another way to anglicize that name. The problem is that Rimsky-Korsakov is the version used elsewhere on Wikipedia.
I couldn't find any other time where "Rimskiy-Korsakov" was used in Wikipedia, except in one edit of yours back on 20 August 2006.
Anyway, since you do so much on this article, you should know which way is the correct way to do the name. Could you check this? Shenme 06:19, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
DEAR IVAN, can you write me at bagnoli@pendragon.it ? I need information about BORIS GODUNOV thank you

Four minimal stubs for Smetana operas[edit]
I see you have started four articles for Smetana operas, each a matter of six or seven words - no other information, no sources, nothing! Are you intending to develop these articles? At the moment the Opera Project is working on Smetana operas so we would be interested in knowing your intentions. (Normally minimal stubs are deplored if they are not developed.) -- Kleinzach 14:19, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
- In fact why don't you come and join us in the project at WP:WPO? I notice you've done a lot of work on the Russian opera repertory and we would appreciate having you as one of the people involved in our discussions.--Peter cohen 17:21, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Reply to your message[edit]
Hi, Ivan. I've seen your message on my page and see you're stil polishing it. It's very late here. So I shan't give a detailed reply now, but may come back again later.
My invitation to you to join the opera project was meant to be an acknowledgment that your work on Boris and other Russian operas was valuable. Some other editors can be a bit abrupt and I wanted to add something encouraging after Kleinzach's remarks. Most people who commented on whether the re-orchestration material should be included in the main Boris article or not were positive and I had got the impression already that you had done most of the work. You've just confirmed my suspicions that the IP edits were by you as well as the ones under your own id.
It is easy to get upset by what some people say on Wikipedia. I have got so myself on occasions. But I hope that in a few hours, or a day or two at most, you'll be feeling happier again. As I said elsewhere, a bit more referencing etc, and your article should be able to get through the good article process.
Wikipedia projects aren't that formal. You could have joined without an invitation. It would be useful if you did join, because that way we could co-ordinate work better. I was going to write something on [[Libuse (opera)] anyway before you started it. If you took part in our discussions it would make it easier to split up who does what. We are having a drive on Smetana, Janacek and Dvorak this month, so there is plenty of work to go round. Co-ordinating saves two of us from duplicating effort (both reading a libretto, say). I shan't pretend that people don't argue in the project sometimes. But it would be useful at least for you to watch our discussions so you have an idea what other opera-oriented people are up to.
And please don't leave Wikipedia altogether. Because of your work, the Boris article is so much better than it was, and we need as many good editors as we can get.--Peter cohen 00:56, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
- Something I should add is that, if you don't like someone else's edits ot an article page, you can revert them or improve them. But then you need to provide an explanation. What Wikipedia as a whole doesn't like is edit warring where people keep on reverting each other's changes. It probably is better to say in advance that you don't like these changes because of x and y, therefore you are changing them. Hopefully a discussion would then resolve things. Of course, if it is a matter of changing things inline with Wikipedia policy, then the policy wins out. If two fo you can't agree, then the advantage of thing like the opera wikiproject is that it is a place where you can find several other people who know about the opera and they might be able to make suggestions that you are both happy with. Anyway I hope you will in the end to be happy to join us. A diligent editor who can work on articles steadilly is a valuable resource.--Peter cohen 15:32, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi Ivan, As you can see, I've added some more material to the Prince Igor about the Mariinsky edition. (I've only recently acquired the Philips recording as my first version of the opera. I don't know why it's not better known in the West.) I'm happy to work in cooperation with you on the article whether or not you join WP:WPO. --Peter cohen 13:34, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- I've just done a few edits to the article, mainly copy-editing towards uniformity. We had multiple spellings of "Polovtsian", "Nikolai" (Rimsky-Korsakov), "Alexander" (Glazunov). The variations are all valid transliterations but not sticking to one looked messy. I've settled on the the majority spellings in the article or ones that match the articles on those subjects. I have also made the footnote style more uniform, converging on something in between what you and I had done previously and put the main book details in the references.
- It's good that you have access to the Grove article. What we have now is an article bordering on B class by the opera-project's marking scheme. (See the table giving the points scheme for opera articles at Wikipedia:WikiProject Richard Wagner/Assessment. As we're currently pilotting it, suggestions on gaps or wrong emphasis in the scheme are particularly welcome.) Before you got involved, the article wasn't much more than a stub. And at the rate you're now working on it, it will soon be a clear B. In my opinion, the biggest weaknesses at present are the skimpiness of the synopsis and the lack of discussion of the critical reception of the opera, of when and for how long Borodin worked on the opera, and the lack of musical examples. Improvements on one or two of these would make the article a clear B. To go for Good Article status, we should address all these point and need to continue to increase the level of inline referencing.
- Please, let me know what you think.--Peter cohen 10:15, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the note, Ivan. I've started work on the synopsis, as you suggested. I'm basing it on the libretto from the Gergiev recording, the only one with libretto that I have This is fine for its first three scenes (Prologue, traditional act 2, traditional act 1 scene 1) but the material diverges thereafter. Do you have a libretto of the Rimsky-Korsakov edition, so that we can record the differences in the contents of the versions for Act 2 Sc 2, Act 3 and Act 4? I'm trying to control my Wikipedia time. So I'm intending to just do one scene a day.--Peter cohen 22:08, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- Hi, Ivan. I have now finished the synopsis. Please check it against your libretto for the Rimsky edition. I believe that it is the last three scenes where there have been changes in the Faliek edition.--Peter cohen 14:32, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
Glad to see you back[edit]
Hi Ivan. I was worried that you might have left Wikipedia. I'm glad to see you editing again. --Peter cohen 10:49, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

My Compliments[edit]

The Original Barnstar | |
| Thankyou very much for your marvellous work on Mussorgsky, especially Boris. Can we have the picture of Chaliapin from the Paris 1908 Boris too? - so moody! I hope to see something similar from you on Khovantschina (if you haven't yet done it). Please accept this paltry tribute of admiration. Eebahgum (talk) 16:19, 11 February 2008 (UTC) |
Prince Igor again[edit]
Hi Ivan, I see you're back working on Prince Igor. I think that if you're talking about things as beign "better explanations", then you had better reference a source that describes it as such.
And Congratulations on the barn star.--Peter cohen (talk) 19:55, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Automatic opera class-rating[edit]
Hi Ivan, Just to let you know that as a preliminary step in evaluation WP:WPO is classifying all non-stub opera articles that have not been previously assessed as good or features as start class. So this is not someone saying that anything you have contributed to is poor. Please bring our attention to ones that should be assessed higher.
Bear in mind that out trial on Wagner articles has been commented as being rather strict. So some pretty decent articles may still come out as Start. The criteria are at Wikipedia:WikiProject Opera/Assessment. --Peter cohen (talk) 13:58, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Golenishchev-Kutuzov.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

File:Glazunov 1896.jpg needs authorship information[edit]
The media file you uploaded as File:Glazunov 1896.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.
It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.
Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).
- If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which:
{{subst:usernameexpand|Ivan Velikii (2006-2008)}}will produce an appropriate expansion,
or use the {{own}} template.
- If this is an old image, for which the authorship is unknown or impossible to determine, please indicate this on the file description page.

Files missing description details[edit]
are missing a description and/or other details on their image description pages. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the images, and they will be more informative to readers.
If the information is not provided, the images may eventually be proposed for deletion, a situation which is not desirable, and which can easily be avoided.
If you have any questions, please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Theo's Little Bot (error?) 10:50, 14 April 2013 (UTC)File source problem with File:Bilibin - Tsarevna Swan-Bird.jpg[edit]

Image source problem with File:Tsar Saltan Window.jpg[edit]
Thank you for uploading File:Tsar Saltan Window.jpg.
This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.
If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 02:11, 13 November 2015 (UTC). If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
