Boulez
editLook at the talk page for Pierre Boulez before you make your edits. We've already discussed the matter, and reached the conclusion that there's no evidence that he belongs in the Category of gay composers. CRCulver 04:24, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Is that a private message?Einapfel 07:00, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
- No. Anyone can read and edit your talk page. Also, please end your messages on talk pages with four "~" tildes (see: Help:Talk_page), which will automatically insert your username and the time. Rainwarrior 05:21, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
I'll admit from the manner in which you responded to me that you probably know more about conducting than I do, but I still want to argue the point. The line that you object to states that "To encourage a particular accelerando or rallentando, a conductor may use additional body language... etc." That is not to say that this additional body language is a means of changing the speed which, as you said correctly, can only be done in certain, specific ways. All the line says is that a conductor may use techniques like "making circling motions" to encourage a speed change, sort of like a "get ready" signal to the orchestra. From my experience, simply as a concert-goer, this is true.
And also, I noticed that it was about time you got properly welcomed to Wikipedia, so I posted the above message as well. Have fun, and continue to contribute! --DLandTALK 01:36, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Replaceable fair use Image:Kaipanen1.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Kaipanen1.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Quadell (talk) (random) 13:44, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
