File:Natalia Dudinskaya by M.Sherling.jpg

Здравствуйте. Если считать, что на обсуждаемой фотографии действительно изображена Наталья Дудинская (1912–2003), то снимок надо датировать периодом от конца 1920-х до начала 1940-х, а никак не 1910-ми, когда героиня снимка была ещё девочкой в Харькове и по возрасту не могла знать Мирона Шерлинга (тем более — ему позировать). А поскольку работы Шерлинга, кроме исполненных до Революции 1917 года, ещё не подпадают под public domain (Шерлинг умер в 1958 году, положенный срок копирайта истечёт в 2028-м), то данный снимок, исходя из вышесказанного, в принципе не может быть на Складе.

File:Fyodor Tyutchev.jpg

Вы можете объяснить целесообразность существования на Складе текущей версии файла? Насколько я вижу, она полностью идентична предыдущей, за единственным исключением (не считая размера файла) — в нижнем углу репродукции присутствует вотермарка www.lirika.biz. Gleb95 (talk) 07:33, 21 August 2025 (UTC).

обожаю, когда меня спрашивают о файлах, загруженных 10+ лет назад "что вы думали, когда его грузили". Вероятно, предыдущая версия все-таки чем-то была хуже. --Shakko (talk) 08:56, 21 August 2025 (UTC)

«Вероятно, предыдущая версия все-таки чем-то была хуже» — тем, что на ней не было вотермарки. Правильно я понимаю? Gleb95 (talk) 08:27, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

то есть вы обвиняете меня в том, что я это сделала с целью промо чужого сайта? вам не стыдно? --Shakko (talk) 14:31, 23 August 2025 (UTC)

«то есть вы обвиняете меня в том, что я это сделала с целью промо чужого сайта?». Нет. А раз не собирались ничего продвигать, тогда объясните, чем по-вашему предыдущая версия файла была действительно хуже текущей. (Правда, никаких отличий я не вижу, как не вижу и вашего примечания к текущей версии. Рожкова, по понятным причинам, уже не спросишь). Gleb95 (talk) 19:52, 24 August 2025 (UTC).

Athena Lemnia

Hi Shakko. I hope you won't be offended at this, but I have removed the long descriptions you added to the category pages for the two versions of the Athena Lemnia in Dresden. First, some of the information you provided was incorrect or out of date. The recent re-examination of both statues in Dresden and their publication in the catalogue of the Dresden sculpture collection in 2011 have clarified the previous history these pieces (both of which are from the Albani collection in Rome, and before that in the Cesi collection), confirmed the relationship between the head and body of Hm 49, and led to somewhat different conclusions about the dates of the works (1st century rather than 2nd). More importantly, however, the Commons is not really the appropriate place for content like this. You don't need me to tell you that detailed descriptions of objects and discussions of controversial art historical topics are better suited to carefully sourced Wikipedia articles than to Commons category pages. I revised the enwiki article on the Athena Lemnia earlier this year, briefly summarizing the evidence, the history of Furtwängler's reconstruction, and the challenges to it; if you have things that you think should be added, I'd be happy to discuss them. But let's do it at the Wikipedia article, not here at the Commons, OK? Thanks, Choliamb (talk) 19:18, 30 October 2025 (UTC)

hi, so you don't like those 2013 catalogue atributions? --Shakko (talk) 19:20, 30 October 2025 (UTC)

The work you cited (C. C. Davison's Pheidias: The Sculptures and Ancient Sources) was originally compiled in the 1990s and published in 2009 as BICS supplement 105 (most easily consulted on JSTOR, here). I have no idea why the Oxford site dates it to 2013, but that date is incorrect; it was written and published some years earlier, which is why it contains no reference to the Dresden sculpture catalogue published in 2011. Apart from that, however, it's an excellent source: a very thorough, detailed discussion of the ancient literary testimonia and the controversy over Furtwängler's reconstruction. I revised the English Wikipedia article when I uploaded my photos of the statues to the Commons, mostly because the existing article was so bad, but I intentionally kept it brief and avoided going into too much detail. If you'd like to expand it with more information from Davison's book, feel free to do so; I won't object. But I do think anything substantial should be added to the Wikipedia article, not the Commons category page. Cheers, Choliamb (talk) 20:27, 30 October 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for details. No, I prefer to do it in my language wiki. --Shakko (talk) 20:28, 30 October 2025 (UTC)

Disambiguation categories

Hello, Shakko. I saw that you created Category:Saint Michael (disambiguation). Please note that the disambiguated items need to be listed in the category. They are not members of the category. I have fixed those things for this category, so please look at what I did so you know how to set them up in the future. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Thanks. -- Auntof6 (talk) 15:01, 28 November 2025 (UTC)

Greek icons

Hi, thank you for your work on the categories of Greek icons. I write you because I think there is a mistake in a few files you categorized, such as this one for instance. You added the Category:Icons of Saint George and the Dragon from Greece, but the icon was actually produced in Turkey by Greek people, and later brought to Greece following the events of the Greco-Turkish War of 1919–1922. So I think is not appropriate a category that say "from Greece". The objects are "in Greece" now, but are originary from elsewere. What do you think? --Phyrexian ɸ 12:12, 4 December 2025 (UTC)

hi, this file also is in category "Saint George and the dragon in art of Greece", so the point "in" is satisfied. My task was to place this in the " Greek icons of George", as opposed to the "paintings". I could't know about its provenance, it isn't written in the descrption, sorry. Plus, there's the eternal philosophical question that arises when using categories at Commons. What's the difference between "in" and "from"? Should the "from" category include only files that previously resided in a specific place (not now), or also those whose reproductions from that place right now?

I'm not saying you did something wrong or blaming you af anything, I just noticed that the result was probably a misleading category. I'm not sure what should be the best solution in this case, that's why I'm asking. For the philosophical question, some category trees for artworks use both "in" and "from", take a look for instance at Category:Sculptures of Italy and its name explanation: we have "of", and then "in" and "from". My best guess in this case is to change "from Greece" to "in Greece", and keep the Category:Icons of Turkey you already added. Do you agree? --Phyrexian ɸ 03:45, 5 December 2025 (UTC)

"of" is perfect solution! --Shakko (talk) 17:30, 5 December 2025 (UTC)

Thanks / apology

I wanted to thank you for the work your are doing on icons, and apologize for my skepticism about you plunging into this without discussion. I can see that there is no doubt what you are doing is a strong net positive. - Jmabel ! talk 17:06, 5 December 2025 (UTC)

Category:Major prophets (Bible)

You've populated this category with items for people (Biblical prophets). However, the term "major prophet" in Christianity refers to the five books that are longer Latin maior) then the twelve shorter (Latin minor) books.

Wrong categories

Hi!

1. 14th-century is Middle Ages, not Renaissance. Cimabue, Giotto, Dante, Petrarca belong to the 13th and 14th century.
2. Prints and drawings are not paintings. (example)
3. Works that could belong to the 20th century should not be categorized as 19th century. (example)
4. The category "Giotto and Cimabue" may also contain files that are not works of art, such as books, documents, cosplay, etc. For those, you should create the category "Giotto and Cimabue in art". I didn't create it because it doesn't seem necessary to me at the moment.
