Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Henry Hope Reed Award Laurates


A tag has been placed on Category:Henry Hope Reed Award Laurates requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Herrikez (talk) 13:18, 17 February 2020 (UTC) Okay, do it.

Rafael Manzano Prize‎
Hi, I had a look at your draft:Rafael Manzano Prize‎ following our conversation on New Classical Architecture and tweaked the intro a bit. However in the English Wikipedia "Articles require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject": see WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Reviewing_instructions. As all the references about the award are to the award website, I think you will need to find several additional reliable independent sources to get through Articles for creation review. Also Reliable_sources says that "the great majority of any article must be drawn from independent sources." I am happy to (try to) answer any questions or you could also try the Help desk. TSventon (talk) 15:14, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Herrikez (talk) 15:32, 20 February 2020 (UTC)Hey hello! Thanks, I didn't know that, first time creating a page. I can easily get external sources but they are most probably going to be in Portuguese or Spanish. Let's see if that is not a problem. Cheers.


 * Different Wikipedias have their own rules so you won't know everything at first. Spanish or Portuguese sources are not a problem, but the article needs several sources with significant coverage of the subject (at least a paragraph each). And they need to be high quality and independent, as explained in the reviewing instructions I linked to (you need to click "show" to see the details). TSventon (talk) 16:35, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Herrikez (talk) 16:43, 20 February 2020 (UTC)Thanks, I already changed the article to have many news sources, couldn't find anything in English, but in Portuguese and Spanish there is plenty. Fingers crossed. Thanks and take care!


 * Herrikez, good to see your article has finally been published! TSventon (talk) 22:39, 20 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Yes! Thanks for your help TSventon! Cheers


 * I have also linked the English article to the Spanish and Portuguese ones and merged the two versions of the Spanish article. TSventon (talk) 15:18, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I noticed the 2 Spanish versions bu didn't know how to fuse them.Herrikez (talk) 15:30, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

Are you hoping to add articles for some of the winners? Until then it would be possible to add interlanguage links like Ignacio Medina y Fernández de Córdoba. TSventon (talk) 20:38, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
 * That is a good idea, I do not know enough about the winners to be confident in doing a page for them. I did a page for Antonio Maria Braga because he has worked in some public buildings listed on Wikipedia, so I had something to add to his page. Herrikez (talk) 07:00, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited European Urban Renaissance, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hammamet ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/European_Urban_Renaissance check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/European_Urban_Renaissance?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Neutral point of view
Hi, I don't want to derail the conversation at WikiProject Architecture‎ so I am posting on your talkpage instead. You are putting in a lot of work into finding sources for "New Classical architecture", so I strongly recommend reading Neutral point of view to focus your work. It is fairly short and one of Wikipedia's three "core policies". (The other two, No original research and Verifiability are also useful.)

For example the section on Due and undue weight, WP:UNDUE, is relevant to whether we should use Robert Stern's book "Modern Classicism" as a template for the article. The section says "If a viewpoint is in the majority, then it should be easy to substantiate it with reference to commonly accepted reference texts".

The section on Explanation of the neutral point of view, WP:WIKIVOICE, is relevant to using Demetri Porphyrios' book, "Classicism is not a Style" as a source.

The section on article names, WP:POVNAMING, links to Article titles which is essential reading when discussing article names.

My interest in the article is to see how it can improved, which means applying the three core policies. TSventon (talk) 13:43, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
 * TSventon, look, I have made my arguments, I just find a bit pointless to have page called "New Classical architecture" and write it simply as a page about "Classical architecture" that is new. If your evaluation your correct, then our best thing course of action is to delete the page. We don't have a page about "Islamic architecture" that is new, or about "Gothic architecture" that is new, then why should we have a page about "Classical architecture" that is new?


 * I admit that I like the page because it made me interested in architecture, and interested in participating on wikipedia, so I cannot be neutral in this case.
 * My proposals was simply an attempt to maintain the contents in a way that makes sense bibliographically. It was an informative research anyway, so worth it.


 * Herrikez, are you saying that you are not interested in Wikipedia's policies on Neutral point of view and Article titles? (Or am I misunderstanding you?) NPOV does not mean that editors should not have their own opinions (if it did it would be difficult to write an article about Donald Trump). As it happens, I am fairly neutral on "New Classical architecture", but would prefer to have an article based on reliable sources.


 * There are sections on recent Classical (Neoclassical architecture), Gothic (Gothic Revival architecture) and Islamic (Islamic architecture) architecture and any of those sections could be spun off into a separate sub-article if there was enough material. TSventon (talk) 11:21, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
 * TSventon And yet none did.
 * BTW, I found this ref, so it seems that New Classical architecture is actually a thing, and is more or less what you describe. Now that I have a reliable source for what New Classical architecture actually is, I will provide no further opposition to your review.
 * I just thought that there could be something on those books that described "New Classical" architecture as something different, and as I don't have have access to those books, I trusted the original authors more than I trust you.


 * I am sure there is plenty of scope for an article on Contemporary Islamic architecture, but I don't have the knowledge to write it.
 * Thanks for finding The Oxford Dictionary of Architecture's section on New Classicism. (I notice that Craig Hamilton and Thomas Gordon Smith don't seem to have their own articles yet.)
 * I am quite happy that you don't trust me as much as published sources as Wikipedia is based on published sources. TSventon (talk) 15:16, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Welcome to wikipedia, but
I don't think adding the category 'bibliography articles without infoboxes' to Jaquelin Robertson is controversial. i find it a convenient way to mark articles that do not have the template 'infobox architect' yet. Can you explain why you rejected the change? Thanks Fred (talk) 23:09, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

P.S. Maybe you are interested in the wiki project for architecture [].
 * Fred I just saw that the list of pages in that category and most of them where talkpages, not mainpages, so I thought that it was a mistake. Also, I find it bit weird to have that information in the page that is most accessible to the public, since it is mostly a category for internal organization and communication, not really related with the content of the page. If you check it, you can see that I didn't delete it, I just transferred it to the talkpage. If you really confident that you are doing it the correct way, I will not oppose you putting it back.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Pueblo Revival architecture into Indigenous architecture. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 17:21, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Apollo1203. Your recent edit(s) to the page Swaminarayan Akshardham (New Delhi) appear to have added incorrect information, so they have been removed for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''The edit regarding Vikram Lall as the architect is not referenced in the sources used. Please ensure proper sources are being used when making such claims/edits.'' Apollo1203 (talk) 02:45, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Please review Wikipedia policy on RS and secondary sources Apollo1203 (talk) 15:59, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Apollo1203

"Say where read it" follows the practice in academic writing of citing sources directly only if you have read the source yourself. If your knowledge of the source is secondhand—that is, if you have read Jones (2010), who cited Smith (2009), and you want to use what Smith (2009) said—make clear that your knowledge of Smith is based on your reading of Jones.

When citing the source, write the following (this formatting is just an example):

"John Smith (2009). Name of Book I Haven't Seen, Cambridge University Press, p. 99, cited in Paul Jones (2010). Name of Encyclopedia I Have Seen, Oxford University Press, p. 29."

Or if you are using short citations:

"Smith (2009), p. 99, cited in Jones (2010), p. 29." What about secondary sources? Herrikez (talk) 18:36, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
 * The sources you have cited are not secondary academic sources. They are news outlets. I think this is something we will need to have a discussion about on the Akshardham page as I believe Vikram Lall was not the one/only designer of the monument. Till then we will keep the information off as it is not accurate or given by an accurate/reliable sources. Apollo1203 (talk) 23:56, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Newsources are considered reliable sources in every Wikipedia page (unless there is something clearly wrong with them). If Vikram Lall is just one of the designers, we can had the other ones when we have the information about them (we can instead had the name of his company and team, if you prefer). I can agree that we need someone to mediate this, because otherwise I will keep reversing your edits and vice-versa. But I prefer to go to consult with the architecture group because there are plenty of people interested in the topic Herrikez (talk) 07:38, 6 June 2020 (UTC)

Category:Neo-Historism
Hello, Herrikez,

Please do not remove all of the contents of a category and then blank it. This is called emptying categories "out of process" and is extremely discouraged. If you believe a category should be deleted, renamed or merged, please make a proposal at Categories for Discussion and state your reasons for your opinion there where they can be seen by other interested editors. Please do this in the future. It is easy to make a proposal using Twinkle, a popular editing tool or you can find information at WP:CFD. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 01:28, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
