User:Emigré55 has added a large amount of copyrighted material to this article from Pieter Pourbus, Master painter of Gouda, 2018, Catalogue of the exhibition Feb.17 - June 17 2108 at Museum Gouda, ISBN 9789072660121. On p. 84 of this publication, it is stated: "all rights reserved". For examples, this edit is an apparent word-for-word copy of pp. 31–32; this edit, pp. 11–20; this edit, pp. 20–26; and this edit, pp. 26–27. I reverted the article to the version before this editor began making changes on 7 March 2020 [1] with edit summary "remove what appears to be a copy-paste job", a change which the user promptly reverted. Since so much of the article is affected and very few edits by other editors have been made, I feel it is best to revert to that version again. --Robert.Allen (talk) 22:08, 4 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

The following email was sent today at my request to the Wikifoundation, as requested:

"Geachte heer Allen,
Hierbij bevestig ik dat ik, Marc de Beyer, directeur Museum Gouda, de maker en / of enige eigenaar ben van het exclusieve copyright van de publicatie Pourbus, meester-schilder uit Gouda (Pourbus, Master painter of Gouda)
zoals hier gebruikt: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Emigr%C3%A955?markasread=186487124&markasreadwiki=enwiki#Copyright_violation_at_Pieter_Pourbus, en ik heb de wettelijke bevoegdheid om het copyright van dat werk vrij te geven.

which translates as follows:

"Dear Mr. Allen,
I hereby confirm that I, Marc de Beyer, director Museum Gouda, am the maker and / or sole owner of the exclusive copyright of the publication Pourbus, master painter from Gouda (Pourbus, Master painter of Gouda) as used here: :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Emigr%C3%A955?markasread=186487124&markasreadwiki=enwiki#Copyright_violation_at_Pieter_Pourbus, and I have legal authority to release the copyright of that work.

I acknowledge that I cannot revoke this agreement and that the content may or may not be permanently stored on a Wikimedia project."

I will of course continue to edit the article to eliminate any controversial issue, and in particular rewrite sections which might be too close to the originally cited articles of this catalogue, which is the most complete and comprehensive source to date for this painter, who was the most important painter of Bruges during the 16th century.

The following email was sent today by the copyright holder to Robert Allen, in order to confirm that there is no copyright violation:

"Dear Allen,
The publication that is quoted from on the Pourbus-wiki site is a publically available, scholarly publication.
I have never ever before had to grant permission to quoting from a widely available publication.
Especially not if the author refers to the book and the specific text parts, as was the case.
So please, let the author quote our publication in the normal way.
Many thanks,
Marc de Beyer
Director
Museum Gouda"

Unfortunately, this email is insufficient, since it does not grant the required license. If the museum director has indeed granted a suitable license by sending that information directly to Wikipedia, then, it is my understanding that someone from OTRS will post a notice of it here. --Robert.Allen (talk) 17:03, 23 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
I will also leave a response at Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2020 April 16. --Robert.Allen (talk) 10:37, 23 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

(Copy of the entry witten here)
Contrary to the above statement (of Robert Allen), Museum Gouda granted copyright permission according to Wikipedia requirements.
This permission was sent to wiki@wikimedia.org by the director of the museum in 2 emails:

  • the first email concerns the painting "Annunciation", and is dated April 16,2020 at 11:19.
  • the second email concerns the text of the exhibition catalogue, is dated April 16,2020 at 11:20, and sent to wiki@wikimedia.org (I was cc'd in this email).

I took the time to include this second permission in the talk page of the article on the same day at 16:37.
I forwarded the second email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org on April 21, 2020 at 18:18, after having received the following request:
please make sure the copyright holder sends an email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, preferably using this template. --MrClog (talk) 09:11, 20 April 2020 (UTC)(see above)
My email was received as evidenced by the following reference in the header if the automatic response: [Ticket#2020042110009381] Confirmation of receipt (Re: Pieter Pourbus - Pub [...])
I find it very unfortunate, to say the least, that Robert Allen :

  • did not check first on the talk page of this article,
  • did not send any email to me, at any stage of the controverse he raised, and still is raising, simply to alert me beforehand,
  • did not merely answer to me, whereas I also had the courtesy, and took the time, to write to him 3 times on the subject on his talk page, and again today at 8:15.

As to allegations that the present text does not meet copy requirements, I have already stated, and repeat here, that the text is under new editing now, which can also be seen by numerous new amendments brought since the page was reinstated.
This work is time consuming, and as I seem to be the only contributor so far for this, I ask time to complete this task.
I wish to conclude that this article is an important article on this painter, which is the most important painter of his time in the city of Bruges, which in its turn is known world wide.
This article replaced a very poor and very short entry on this painter, and now offers to all readers the most complete information and iconography on this painter, according to the most recent and most complete source.

Guild(s?)

edit

Qoute from the article. "Pourbus was also a very active member of the Bruges Guild of Sculptors and Saddlers." Yet, Guild_of_Saint_Luke#Bruges states that Saint Luke in Bruge was the guild of painters and other artists, as well as of saddlers. This would mean that Pourbus wasn't "also" member of "Bruges Guild of Sculptors and Saddlers", but that it is one and the same guild. Also, the article doesn't say Pourbus was a sculptor or a saddler, so why would then be part of such guild? I believe there is a mistake introduced here.

Review

  • The lead is very short. It needs to be expanded, at least 2-3 paras.
  • Add an infobox. {{Infobox person}}
  • The images are way too big. And there a lot of them. Resize them to 220px (default) and reduce them.
  • Image captions aren't clear. Avoid using allcaps.
  • Multiple unsourced sections and sentences. Each of them needs to be properly sourced.
  • Avoid using external links like wikilinks.

Pass/Fail:   As per the first criteria of good article immediate failures, an article can, but by no means must, be failed without further review (known as a quick fail) if, prior to the review: It is a long way from meeting any one of the six good article criteria. The biggest issue here is the unsourced parts. Sections like Birth and origin, Portrait of a Noble Young Lady and other portraits, Religious paintings, Influence and fame etc. are unsourced.

A lot of work required to make it GA compliant. Refer to the related good articles and featured articles. Also, I would suggest submitting the article for a copyedit at GOCE. When these issues are addressed, the article can be renominated. If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to have it reassessed. Thank you for your work so far.— ❯❯❯   S A H A 20:00, 2 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Vexations, CaptainEek, Thanks to Vexations. My 2 cents just to add that this is according to Paul Huvenne; and that the detail of this figure is on page 8 of the catalogue to the exhibition of Gouda, and presented as such. --Emigré55 (talk) 15:22, 7 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
