Capilla Flamenca

Hello PrimaVista, and welcome to Wikipedia. I notice you recently added a paragraph about the Pueri who appear on some of the Capilla Flamenca recordings, e.g. Lumina. Then you removed it. Any particular reason? I think it would make an interesting addition to the article. And there's a reference for it here.[1] Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 14:00, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello Voceditenore,

I added the paragraph on the pueri and subsequently removed it at the request of Capilla Flamenca, because the pueri project is currently inactive and will not be started up again before 2 or 3 years. I will elaborate the page further, however, and may add a reference to the pueri in the section on Capilla's educational efforts. PrimaVista (talk) 18:46, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:AgricolaBelleSurToutes.ogg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:AgricolaBelleSurToutes.ogg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 13:23, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Simply stating that it meets our requirements does not constitute a rationale. I recommend you use one of our fair use templates, so that all relevant information is included, or at least a list- blocks of text don't really work well as rationales. You provided no information in the rationale about minimal use- how long the clip is, what the bitrate is, (as well as comparing both to the original so as to prove that this does not limit the value of the original) nor did you explain why this could not be replaced by a free sample. That may be obvious, I didn't look into it, but that's not the point, I shouldn't need to look into it. Furthermore, you did not explain explicitly why the file was critical to the article it would be appearing in, nor did you even say what that article was. J Milburn (talk) 13:41, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

I uploaded it again, using a fair use template. Hope it is OK now. PrimaVista (talk) 14:26, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:AgricolaBelleSurToutes.ogg

Thanks for uploading Image:AgricolaBelleSurToutes.ogg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 15:07, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Capilla Flamenca (new version)

Hi PrimaVista, sorry I couldn't get back to you in more detail yesterday. The article looks very good! Just a couple of things you should change. The Sources section should come at the end, just before before External links and better to rename as References. Generally speaking, it's better to avoid adjectives like "renowned" (replace with "well known") and "prestigious" (leave it out). I also notice that some of your references are external links inside the article. Generally it's better to have them as footnotes like the other references. But this isn't a major problem. I'm leaving for Italy tomorrow, but I can help you with the formatting when I get back. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 18:02, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi Voceditenore, thank you very much for your comments. I will make the "easy" changes (delete "prestigious", change the titles and the order etc.) and then wait for your help with the technical stuff. It is very difficult for me to figure this out on my own. I already learned a lot this week, but I'm aware of the fact that my wikipedia experience is still close to zero. I'm planning further contributions regarding early music groups (Psallentes, Oltremontano, Cappella Pratensis, Flanders Recorder Quartet, La Caccia etc.) and early music composers. First I need to be more familiar with wikipedia's rules, otherwise it will be a frustrating exercise. I'm very happy with your assistance. Looking forward to hearing from you soon, tanti saluti dal Belgio e buon viaggio, PrimaVista (talk) 07:30, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Ars nova

Hi PrimaVista. You recently placed a note in hidden text on the Ars nova article, "Please show me how to credit the translator. It doesn't seem to fit into the template." A frequent problem with templates is that the template designer has failed to foresee needed categories or formats, which is why many editors (including myself) prefer not to use them. Because I don't use templates, I assume that editors who do use them know better than I how to fit data into them. In this case, I attempted to add a "translator" field, but it didn't work. My advice, if you would agree, would be to replace the template with ordinary formatted text, like the other entries in that References list.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 19:36, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

OK, that is fine with me. I will do so. PrimaVista (talk) 20:08, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Oltremontano page tested

Oltremontano is an early music consort based in [Belgium. The name “Oltremontano” is a reference to the Flemish polyphonists, which dominated and defined the European music world of the 15th and 16th century and were know in Italy as the “oltremontani” or “those from across the mountains”.

Members

The core of Oltremontano consists of Wim Becu, the group's artistic director, and Adam Woolf, Adam Bregman, Robert Schlegl, Doron David Sherwin and Adrien Mabire. They play sackbuts, cornetti and double reed instruments, which correspond with the old alta capella formation of the municipal bands.

For some performances, the core is enlarged either with a complementary bassa capella of string instruments and/or an organ or with singers, according to the needs of the genre. Among the singers, Capilla Flamenca and the Gesualdo Consort Amsterdam stand out. The bassa capella consists of violin-players Veronika Skuplik and An Van Laethem and chitarone-player Christoph Barth. Kris Verhelst is the group’s organ player.

Repertoire

Franco-Flemish Polyphony

Oltremantano specialises in Franco-Flemish polyphony, focusing on the music of the 15th and 16th centuries. Recently, the group has expanded its scope to include music from the 17th century.

Cross-over

Oltremontano has made cross-over productions with artists from other artistic disciplines. Side by side with the dancers of Les Ballets C de la B, Oltremontano toured with VSPRS, directed by Alain Platel.

Festivals

Oltremontano was a guest at festivals such as the Laus Polyphoniae Festival in Antwerp and the Early Music Festival in Saint-Petersburg.

Replaceable fair use File:AgricolaBelleSurToutes.ogg

Thanks for uploading File:AgricolaBelleSurToutes.ogg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria.
