3 Kings
The Three Kings - I wonder if an image of Cornelius is a good idea. Cornelius composed a song for voice and piano. The article is rather about the arrangement for voice and choir. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:07, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
 * As the original composer, it seems appropriate to depict Cornelius; and the greater part of the work is his. If you wanted to, you could add an image of the arranger as well - the article discusses both musicians. I don't think it helps to be excessively precise about image usage - the article's lead image was not painted by Cornelius and is over 200 years older, but doesn't seem out of place.

File:Pebble Mill at One titles.jpg
Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Criticism of the Catholic Church
Hi, thought you might be interested in weighing in on the Criticism of the Catholic Church talk page as to which information should be included.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 02:14, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

Article about aviation services companies
Because You have updated information on aviation topics, I thought maybe it would be interesting for you to have cooperation writing articles about well-known international aviation services companies which do not have their Wikipedia articles or have lack of information there. I have prepared texts and all needed secondary resources. Now I need Wikipedia experienced editor to review these articles and successfully post it.

Could You help me with this freelance work or maybe you have someone to suggest?

Thank You in advance for Your help. I am looking forward to Your answer.


 * Hi - I'm sorry but I think my interest is too peripheral to offer any topic-specific advice. I could comment very generally on style, referencing etc, but it's not really my subject area. Maybe try asking at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aviation or cast your net wider at Teahouse. Hope that helps - good luck! Cnbrb (talk) 12:43, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

Maspalomas Station
While we're trying to figure out the Apollo 11 bit, the ESA article at looks like it might be quite useful for expanding the rest of the article, as it covers quite a bit of the history/evolution of the station. I'd add the info into the article myself, but I'm a bit busy with other things right now. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 08:50, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks - I've made an effort anyway! Cnbrb (talk) 10:27, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that! I'm actually now living on the next island over from the Maspalomas Station, so I'll try to visit it at some point to get some better photos of it for the article. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 19:23, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * How fantastic! Tenerife? More photos would be great - I meant to get some pictures when I was there but I didn't take a good camera. Next time! Thanks for your input anyway, appreciated. Cnbrb (talk) 19:26, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Yup, Tenerife - it was the combination of my pending move to the island, and my love of radio telescopes, that led me to review the DYK. If you're in the area again sometime, ping me! Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 19:54, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Just to let you know, I asked around some local experts here, and they confirm that Maspalomas was not the first station to receive the EVA transmissions, that was Parkes and Goldstein. So it must have just been a bad reference / misunderstanding by a journalist at some point. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 08:41, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's beginning to look like the specific claim was maybe an urban myth that propagated itself in the media and has made its way into some fairly reliable sources. I think it might actually benefit the article in future if we could add something that confirms the Parke/Goldstein role and explicitly refutes the Maspalomas claim, but it's hard to do that without straying into the forbidden zone of original research! Thanks for your input again anyway, very interesting. Cnbrb (talk) 10:59, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

Update
Hello Cnbrb. I'm sorry you didn't get more response to this. Participation in that project has slowed in the last few years. I wanted to let you know that I did change the classic series articles back to the way they were. Thanks for your question and please don't be discouraged by the lack of response. Cheers. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 16:55, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi - thanks for getting in touch! It's not really a problem, I just wanted to question it as a matter of naming convention as I wasn't sure it was a good idea. Also wasn't sure if your changes had come about as a result of some consensus that I was unaware of. But sadly Wikipedia can be a bit of an empty chasm sometimes, when you ask a question and the only reply is tumbleweed!  Oh well, happy editing anyway.Cnbrb (talk) 17:08, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

Tallis
I did not find any at Commons which I liked. I mean, the one you added isn't horrible but the production quality is not great and tuning is off. I sing with a number of choirs, next week I'm performing at Exeter with the English Cornett and Sackbut Ensemble, I do feel strongly about this. But the answer is to buy some sound recording gear and learn how to make better ones :-) Guy (help!) 17:11, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * That was quick! I agree the quality of the DWSchorale recroding was poor. The Coro Santa Pazienza recording I inserted may not be exactly the Tallis Scholars, but I'd consider it acceptable for now. It would be lovely to have really high quality choral works, but unfortunately this is the price we pay for being limited to Creative Commons media content! If you do find a better free recording, do please replace it. I'm happy to look around for something better. I think that it's important for the Thomas Tallis article to carry some exemplary works by Tallis, even if we can't quite find exemplary performers! Cnbrb (talk) 17:18, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * , yes, it will do. My standards are high (I prefer the Hilliard Ensemble in fact but am biased because I was at the same school as Rogers Covey-Crump and know Sarah Tennant-Flowers, their former manager). Guy (help!) 17:29, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
