Image query[edit]

You uploaded this image with a claim that it was published/registered before 1928. What is your source for that? Nikkimaria (talk) 03:31, 13 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hello. Thanks for pointing this out and my apologies. I was unable to find the original publication source for this image. While looking for it, I came across a different photo of Samuel Atkins Eliot and the original publication source.
I found multiple instances of this new photo being published. One being published in 1925 (source) and the other in 1927 (source). I also found the exact image included in an article on JSTOR which was published in 1950 (source). The JSTOR claims copyright on the image within article despite it having being first published in 1925 by a separate source.
I would assume this photo is now in the public domain since it was first published in 1925 (before January 1, 1928), but wanted to see your thoughts on this before replacing/updating the photo. RGKMA (talk) 04:50, 13 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Yes, given the 1925 publication that seems reasonable to upload. However, would you mind reviewing your other uploads to ensure they too are appropriately sourced? On a quick look this one also seems to be missing evidence of pre-1928 publication. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:40, 14 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Of course, I will look through those and be sure to include the correct sources. I just updated the image source for Roscoe DeWitt that you linked, looks like I just forgot to include it originally. RGKMA (talk) 20:46, 14 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Peabody & Stearns-related work[edit]

Hi RGKMA, I see that there is some overlap between some drafts that both you and I have been making. Since I have been neglecting mine and do not know if I will return to them, I wonder if they have any material that may be of use to use. First I have a very brief draft for W. Cornell Appleton as well as my own list of works by P&S and a start of a draft of Little & Browne. If you do want any of the material here, I don't know what the process would be- I don't know if there is a way to move a user page to another user, if that is what would work.

I also have a draft of Joseph D. Leland and his partners, and I see Leland is on your list but not started. The Leland draft is the only one I have been actively working on and will continue to.

Let me know if any of this would be useful to you.

Hello! Thanks for the info! I'll be sure to look at those pages and see if any of it will be useful. I have been primarily focusing on my list of works by Peabody and Stearns lately so haven't done much with the other pages I have started. I plan on going back to them when I finish the P&S page. I'll let you know! RGKMA (talk) 15:18, 8 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
First, apologies for not responding to this until now. Second, if there are any projects I have on my P&S list that you do not have, feel free to copy them. Third, forgive me for noting two errors. The Old State Mutual Building (1870) in Worcester is a work of Charles B. Atwood, and is is noted as such in several of his obituaries and in the Macmillan Encyclopedia of Architects and Grove Encyclopedia of American Art. Felton Hall (1877) in Cambridge is by L. Newcomb & Son. I think this is an error of Moses King or his own sources, as the Newcombs published the building under their own name in the AA&BN in 1879, it's also included on the page for Edgar Allen Poe Newcomb as his.
Best,

No worries at all! Thanks for correcting me on those two buildings, I'll go ahead and fix the errors now. RGKMA (talk) 21:07, 22 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

, Jr.[edit]

Hello. You are probably aware but just in case, names of fictional characters with ,Jr. etc. keep their commas (as fictional creations, not biographical material that MOS covers). Lot of work to do those Jr. edits, thanks for doing so. Randy Kryn (talk) 07:15, 9 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hello! Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I was unaware of this difference between biographical and fictional uses. I'll keep an eye out for this going forward. RGKMA (talk) 11:35, 9 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
