Did you do a proper move on the page, or just cut and paste? Also you will see there are some double redirects, which it is your responsibility to fix. Johnbod 19:19, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- I should have been clearer above - I think the best thing to do now is to put things as they were just now & ask an admin to check it out. It's better to use the Move button than cut & paste, but I forget exactly why. It's about keeping the history in one place I think. Please remember the Frans version is now more up to date than the Franz - I made a number of changes.
You might also be able to add to my new Guild of Romanists. Johnbod 22:10, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks. I'm learning all of this a bit too late now, aren't I? Thanks for the additions, I'm making sure they don't get lost in the mess I've created here. --Stomme 22:15, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
New articles
Excellent work there! I don't think you've put them up to Template_talk:Did_you_know for WP DYK on the main page, for which the longer ones would certainly qualify. A lot of people look at it & it gets them publicised a bit. I've only looked at them quickly; I'll have a long look later. I've redirected painter's guild to the St Luke article - there are LOADS of uses of thee words that could be linked (search on "painters guild")Johnbod 18:08, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks. We've been needing the St. Luke page for a while, and it has been on my mind since I started editing. I finally decided to just sit down and get some information posted. I'm going to step away from it for a while (unless I see something just calling out at me) and see how other minds can shape it a bit. I will start looking for possible links, and all of the "Lukasgild" and similar things. I'll also look into the Did you know info. I'm not familiar with it. --Stomme 18:37, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
- I can do the DYK nominations for you - let me know if you want that. Johnbod 22:33, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
- You're more than welcome to do so. It's a part of the Wiki I haven't gotten around to figuring out yet, and I don't think I'll have time to do anything about it in the next couple days. --Stomme 22:55, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Early Renaissance painting
Hi Stomme! About that page... I just loooked for
My suggestion is that we return Early Renaissance to
I've just reorganised (with a little help from my friends...)
- I just took a look. You're right, all of the Renaissance painting links go to Early Renaissance Painting. Very strange that such a major topic got lost in the details. The categories and time periods for Italy look good, and I think it will help manage some of the clutter. -Stomme 10:27, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for edits. I agree that the references I use are out of date. With regards to Pennacchi, confusion seems to about between this painter and
Well done - I've put it up for DYK. Does Vlieghe have a general ref for the definition of cabinet painting? I've had susrprising difficulty finding one. Johnbod 13:13, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks - just anything that can ref the general definition. I have lots of refs, but none that I can really use for the definition. Loads of red-links in the FB article - although some EB 1911 efforts may be lurking under slightly different versions of the names, based on past experience. Tell the class well done on Marie de M!

Perhaps you could kindly cast an eye over this shortish newbie. Thanks! Johnbod (talk) 02:30, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
- Hi, I'll take a look. The last edit I saw was yours for Cornelis van der Voort. He was born in Antwerp and died in Amsterdam if I'm correct. In modern Dutch one will often see "Van Der Voort" in Flanders while the Dutch will write "van der Voort". Either would probably be okay for him, I think, but your edit is more in line with English usage so it wins out. It's good to see so much info added about such artists. --Stomme (talk) 04:57, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

More for the long term, is there any chance of you starting the process of getting iconography up to a proper article (on that subject)? Johnbod (talk) 18:14, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- Hi, actually, I was indeed thinking of making an Illusionistic painting (it went through my mind earlier today while I was feeding my brain with coffee). I think that would be really helpful. Next, I'm scared to death of that iconography article. I follow it, but it would definitely be a project, wouldn't it? I'll think about what to do, and try to find a few good printed sources that could really argue the art history meaning rather than the "icon" meaning that seems to overwhelm it. --Stomme (talk) 19:44, 20 March 2008 (UTC)]
- Thinking more, and having read your proposal. I think Illusionistic painting as Illusionist ceiling painting and go from there. --Stomme (talk) 20:15, 20 March 2008 (UTC)]
- Thinking more, and having read your proposal. I think
- I'll comment on the merge there. On Iconography, I think most of the current stuff can & should be moved out, probably along the lines I suggest here, & I can do that when we have more there. It then needs a general introduction, which I don't feel able to do properly, as I don't have the sort of theoretical books needed, or their textbook redactions - Panofsky is too individual here I think. After that, brief sections, with lots of links, as portals to various traditions or subject areas, which I can do several of. I think the thing to do is to get it started, even with a little material, just to gain traction. Once the article has been set on the right lines, it may well attract new editors. I tried to interest User:Javits2000, who did Vienna School of Art History & is doing an art history doctorate; if we get it going he may join in. Johnbod (talk) 21:06, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- I added a couple brief historiographical paragraphs to Iconography. they aren't much, but they might give people the incentive to take the article in that direction. Now, I'm too tired to think about it more. --Stomme (talk) 22:27, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Great photo! Johnbod (talk) 19:06, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks. I had it on my computer (I have others on some hard drive somewhere that I took that same night), and couldn't resist uploading it when the topic came up.--Stomme (talk) 20:25, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- Congratulations! You are now the author of the lead pic on Kitsch - a subject we seem to have difficulty illustrating. Got any more? Johnbod (talk) 23:45, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Pieter de Ring
Hello Stomme, have you ever been in Holland or Flanders, did you mention your alias? But you seem to me an expert in Baroque painters. Do you have some information on Pieter de Ring, a 17th century Flemish painter from Ypres who died in Leiden? He lived around (1615-1660). May be we can cooperate again.Taksen (talk) 08:40, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hi. I don't know too much about Pieter de Ring. At the moment I don't have time to write any articles, but I would be happy to work on it in the future. That said, he painted pronk still-lifes very much in the manner of, and sometimes confused with, those by Cornelis de Heem. He's certainly an artist worthy of a short article in any case. --Stomme (talk) 08:54, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
Had a good vacation, I hope. I recently added to Tronie, I hope acceptably. Cheers, Johnbod (talk) 21:43, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- I'm all over the place. Thanks for working on that shell of an article, for which I think there's still a lot of potential. It's one of those great topics that's always discussed but very inconsistently described in the literature. Unfortunately, I'm busy enough right now that I don't have time to do the big stuff. Keep up the good work. --Stomme (talk) 00:53, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi, I started this just now - I must admit I had forgotten about your draft until this second when typing your name in the search box. I'm glad to see we have the same section headings! Work continues - I have more on Fontainebleau, Rudolf, and I have Slive in the Yale history for the Haarlem etc gangs. Also Shearman & Craig Smith or whatever. But please take a look, & I hope you will return to the draft of the main article. Johnbod (talk) 04:24, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
- Hi. It looks good! I've been a bit busy (and off the 'net, in fact, for a short while). The Mannerism article is definitely something I'd like to work on at some point. Keep up the good work. --Stomme (talk) 15:08, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
I'm giving this a revamp, as it was hugely outclassed by your Flemish Baroque painting. Please give it a quick checkover when you can. With so many of the artists having crappy EB etc bios, these overviews are important I think - I've also done Medieval art, romanesque art & Gothic art if you're feeling keen. Are you planning another class effort here? All the best, Johnbod (talk) 18:02, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
- Great work! Much, much better! I'll take a closer look when I've got some time. --Stomme (talk) 23:57, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
