::::Yes, but I would worry that no one was interested if it was not vandalised at least a few times - just think all the little children while inserting interesting facts about themselves and their friends' bodily functions must read, if only by accident, at least, one informative fact before pressing save.

Carabosse

Hi Giano, the picture Image:BakstCarabosse.jpg you have updated is really smart. It's from the great Leon Bakst and depicts beautifully the wicked Carabosse. I unfortunately can not use it to illustrate my article fr:Fée Carabosse because the license doesn't allow it (unlike other works by Leon Bask). I'm a bit desappointed because I can not find any other relevant image on commons and because I like this one so much. Would it be possible to use a license that fits wikipedia versions in other languages ? Thanks aforehand for your help. Best regards. --Jibi44 20:27, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

I uploaded it as Public domain, but my very good friend Ghirla seems to have changed the tag, which implies he knows something I do not. He is not a copy-vio-fiend so he probably has a very good reason - I suggest you ask him, I'm sure he will help you out if he can. Giano 20:36, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
Well, {{PD-art}} demands from the artist to have died more than a century ago, while our poor Bakst passed away in 1924. --Ghirla 21:54, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Mary Martha Sherwood

I believe that I have addressed all of the concerns you raised for Mary Martha Sherwood. I have also copy edited the article two more times. Please indicate on the the FAC review whether or not it has your support yet. Thanks. Awadewit | talk 21:59, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Porta Alchemica

Could you tell me in a nutshell what this page is about? I'm searching for information about Borri the Alchemist and Bandiera the Astrologist who entertained Christina of Sweden in Hamburg, while she expected in dismay some bad news from the papal conclave. They both seem to be mentioned in Italian Misplaced Pages, no? --Ghirla 22:04, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Oh it is a load of rubbish basically. A door in a the villa Palombara that has a load of hebrew mumbo jumbo, and other things that people think are referrring to the journeys of the argonauts among other things.One of those things people like to speculate about, in a way similar to the inscription on the obelisk at Shugborough just a lot of hype to drag in the tourists I expect. Giano 22:21, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. I have found some details about Christina and the quacks here. --Ghirla 23:49, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Nothing new

Another day another Giano FA on the Main Page ... Paul August ☎ 05:54, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Paul. I have not checked it out yet, is it still in one piece? Giano 06:19, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Don't look: the usual. Give it three days and check it against the last serious version. Congratulations once again, Giano!--Wetman 06:39, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

I fell asleep after reading "the house is long and rectangular"... Only joking! :-) Very interesting article. BTW, what happened to the Prince's Palace of Monaco one, did that ever get FA or Main Page? I see not, as it is A-class. I also see one of the images got deleted from Commons. Seems it was a Flickr image with too restrictive a license. See here. Carcharoth 13:00, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
