:"'''''As citizens we have to be more thoughtful and more educated and more informed. I turn on the TV and I see these grown people screaming at each other, and I think, well, if we don't get our civility back, we're in trouble.'''''"
:'''Emmylou Harris'''


'''Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux''' ([[May 11]], [[1827]], [[Valenciennes]] –[[October 12]], [[1875]], [[Courbevoie]]) was a French sculptor and painter. His early studies were under [[François Rude]]. Carpeaux won the [[Prix de Rome]] in [[1854]], and moving to [[Rome]] to find inspiration, he there studied the works of [[Michelangelo Buonarroti|Michelangelo]], [[Donatello]] and [[Andrea del Verrocchio|Verrocchio]]. Staying in Rome from [[1854]] to [[1861]], he obtained a taste for movement and spontaneity, which he joined with the great principles of [[baroque art]]. In [[1861]] he made a bust of [[Mathilde Bonaparte|Princess Mathilde]], and this later brought him several commissions from [[Napoleon III]]. He worked at the pavilion of [[Flora (goddess)|Flora]], and the [[Opéra Garnier]]. His group La Danse (the Dance, [[1869]]), situated on the right side of the façade, was criticised as an offence to common decency.
==RfC==
Just wanted to let you know that I opened an [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User conduct|RfC]] on myself in response to the concerns raised during my [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Cla68|RfA]] over my actions in the [[Gary Weiss]] dispute. The RfC is located [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Cla68|here]] and I welcome any comments or questions you may have. [[User:Cla68|CLA]] 09:40, 2 June 2007 (UTC)


He never managed to finish his last work, the famous Fountain of the Four Parts of the Earth, on the Place Camille Jullian. He did finish the terrestrial globe, supported by the four figures of [[Asia]], [[Europe]], [[North America|America]] and [[Africa]], and it was [[Emmanuel Frémiet]] who completed the work by adding the eight leaping horses, the tortoises and the dolphins of the basin.

== Ok ==
==Neapolitan Fisherboy==


Carpeaux submitted a plaster version of ''Pêcheur napolitain à la coquille'', the Neapolitan Fisherboy, to the [[French Academy]] while a student in [[Rome]]. He carved the marble version several years later, showing it in the Salon exhibition of 1863. It was purchased for [[Napoleon III]]'s empress, [[Eugénie de Montijo|Eugènie]]. The statue of the young smiling boy was very popular, and Carpeaux created a number of reproductions and variations in marble and bronze. There is a copy, for instance, in the Samuel H. Kress Collection in the [[National Gallery of Art]] in [[Washington D.C.]]
Sure, but it will be hard. Im on a [[Wii]]. [[User:Lazylaces|Lazylaces]] ([[User_Talk:Lazylaces|Talk to me]] 03:38, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


Some years later, he carved the Girl with a Shell, a very similar study.
==Thanks==
Thanks for the smile. Thats a good philosophy to have, and i will pass on the greeting to other editors. [[User:IP198|IP198]] 21:31, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


Carpeaux sought real life subjects in the streets and broke with the classical tradition. The Neapolitan Fisherboy's body is carved in intimate detail and shows an intricately balanced pose. Carpeaux claimed that he based the Neapolitan Fisherboy on a boy he had seen during a trip to [[Naples]].

== Dayton, OH edit ==

Greetings. You recently reverted one of my edits to the Dayton, Ohio, entry. What I had done was merely include the year of Wright State University's founding, which is already noted in the WSU Wikipedia entry. As someone who lived in Dayton for several years and attended UD, I have an interest in that community, and I believe my edit was constructive. Hope this helps explain the edit. Kind regards, and keep up the fine work with all of your work to better Wikipedia.

==TheRingess==

Hi. I noticed that you have volunteered to mediate between TheRingess and Ganesham re their apparent disagreement. I would like to give you my perspective.

Ever since I started doing articles, I have found that TheRingess has been following me around and turning up at my articles and chopping chunks out of them. She denies following me but manages to turn up ''immediately'' I finish an article and even before. With the last article, [[Gurudev Siddha Peeth]], I could not finish it in one sitting, so I put a notice on it saying it was still being written; The Ringess turned up the very next day and started chopping the article up before I had even finished it.

I discussed these things but she either denies things or just ignores them. Then I got a message from [[Ganesham]], saying that he has had the same problems with TheRingess and had to change his name to shake her off. Ganesham reckons TheRingess watches people's work if she doesn't like the person, and follows them around, chopping up their work.

Perhaps you could keep this in mind when you are mediating between them. I am taking further steps with coordinators. Just thought you might like to know more about TheRingess's activities.

:Hello, I requested that they bring their discussion back to [[Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2007-03-28 Guru Gita|this discussion thread]]. FYI. '''~a''' ([[User:Arichnad|user]] • [[User talk:Arichnad|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Arichnad|contribs]]) 17:47, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

::I noticed that this mediation has been accepted, and am unsure how to ask the following question about it, so I will just ask it here. Can you provide links to any specific Wikipedia policies that seem to apply to the charges of stalking? I have not followed a case involving charges of that nature before and so look forward to learning more about the issues that apply. The Wikipedia procedures outlined at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam]] and [[Wikipedia:Recent changes patrol]] specifically recommend checking a user's contributions once one problem edit has been spotted. I am a member of WikiProject Spam and also a Recent Change Patroller, so as a matter of habit I always examine the edit patterns of a user when I identify a problem edit. Since these are standard procedures, I assume that the behavior being referred to as "stalking" must have some other defining factors. Is that correct?

== Mediation case ==

I want to thank you once again for agreeing to mediate my case back in March. Apparently the other involved editor has chosen to discontinue editing Wikipedia permanently rather than engage in an informal mediation. You can see their final reply to my requests [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AGanesham&diff=136919206&oldid=136871830 here]. I am perplexed by my fellow editor's disregard for Wikipedia's formal dispute resolution process. I respectfully request that we leave the mediation case open for another 3 months. All questions of whether or not I am engaged in disrupting Wikipedia through stalking another user aside (which probably could be resolved through another case or different means altogether); Ganesham's contentions that I have deliberately used Wikipedia to harm the subject of [[Sharon Janis|this article]] have not been addressed (in their words, I carried on a personal vendetta against the subject of that article). Since those allegations are of such a serious nature, I wish to keep the case open in hope that Ganesham might return and allow yourself to review his case. I would understand fully if you wish to remove yourself as a mediator but hope that you might stay on. Once again, I thank you for agreeing to mediate.

I have a degree in English and a degree in American History. What makes you more qualified than me to expound on Hordak's powers? I eagerly await your response.

== About that revert ==

My apologies for reverting that. Went a bit far with that, at least it was a legitamite question from a vandal hehe. [[User:Momusufan|Momusufan]] 00:06, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

== Unnecessary Revert That Was Not Vandalism ==

If you are using a bot that reverted my simple edit it should be reworked and reprogrammed. If you reverted it yourself then please spend a little more time thinking about what you are reverting. This is a trivial thing to complain about but the principle of it stands. Not only was my edit helpful and more grammatically correct but it also was clearly not vandalism and labeling it as such is dentrimental to the community. Thank you.

I'm not trying to be a jerk about it specifically to you but I've seen this kind of thing a couple times to other people's edits so when it happened to me it got a bit frustrating, but no hard feelings.

== Coats of arms of US Infantry Regiments ==

Hi-- I really appreciate your vigilance against vandalism, but the changes you reverted to the subject article should not be considered vandalism. I created the page in question (not claiming ownership, of course), and it was soon filled with galleries of things that don't properly have anything to do with "Coats of arms of US Infantry Regiments." It's really great that they're there, though, so I created "Division insignia of the United States Army," "Corps insignia..." etc, to move the galleries to a more appropriate space. I waited a little while to see if it would take, and apparently an anonymous user tried to move them to the proper page last night. Hope you'll understand and let the pages be separate. No content is lost, just reorganized. Thanks! [[User:Hammon27|Hammon27]] 05:13, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

:Hello Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington. If you take a look on the users talk page, it says that he can be blocked without further warning. I believe that if a user gets a warning like that, and he decides to vandalise again, he should be blocked from editing.

I was wondering why you keep editing what I write about MJHS back to the small paragraph. Everything I write can be verified and hasn't been cruel or intended to be harmful. Could you tell me what parts of it you think are vandalism? I haven't mentioned any names or been hurtful. Our name is changing, our administration is changing and we were drastically surprised by teaching positions being cut. If this is inappropriate, could you please tell me what I could possibly write that wouldn't be "vandalism"?

Thank you, any explaination would be greatly appreciated.

== Thanks ==

Thanks for agreeing to take on this case [[Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2007-03-28 Guru Gita]], but I have decided to close it. The only participation from the other editor, in the months since I opened it, has been to leave a rather vitrolic, accusatory note on the page, harassing not only me, but a fellow editor. I've concluded that this editor is probably not going to change his mind about polite discussion. So I've decided that if they continue to harass me, I will simply have to file incident reports. I was hoping that it wouldn't come to that, but I think 3 months is long enough to wait for someone to discuss their concerns politely.

Hi, you send me this message: Please do not add unhelpful and unconstructive content to Wikipedia, as you did to Richard Rorty. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted.

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make any unconstructive edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant warnings.

What I did was to enter the death date to the article from Richard Rorty (in fact taking the information from the German Wiki); and somebody else reverted it. (for whatever reasons; and some ours later somebody made exactly the same changes which are no longer deemed "vandalism")

== Query re: reversion ==

Thank you for your message regarding the reversion my my recent edit to [[:Michael Savage (commentator)]]. However, I would like some clarification as to the grounds of the reversion.

In your explanation, you describe my edit as "not constructive". Reference to the Wikipedia help page on [[Help:Reverting|reversion]] does not yield any such terminology, and so I am currently lacking a useful definition that would permit me to understand why the present action has been taken.

Instead, the help page on Reverting lays out several core principles, including the following:
"(1) Reverting is a decision which should be taken seriously.
(2) Reverting is used primarily for fighting vandalism, or anything very similar to the effects of vandalism.
(3) If you are not sure whether a revert is appropriate, discuss it first rather than immediately reverting or deleting it.:"

If "vandalism" (or conduct with similar effects) is the touchstone of a proper reversion (and particularly one that has been undertaken without meeting the principle of pre-reversion notice and discussion), I fail to see how my edit comes anywhere near meeting that threshold. [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|Vandalism]], according to Wikipedia, "is any addition, removal, or change of content made in a ''deliberate'' attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia." (emphasis in original) Moreover, "[a]ny good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism." Thus vandalism, by Wikipedia standards, requires deliberate detrimental conduct, and a charge of vandalism can be wholly rebutted by an affirmative good-faith defense.

I assure you that the aforementioned edit was certainly made in good faith, and with no intent to deliberately harm the integrity of Wikipedia. To the contrary, the edit was based on a current development that was (1) truthful, (2) material to the content of the relevant Wikipedia article, and (3) cited to accurate references as well as could possibly be done for this particular development. My characterization of the development as a "controversy" may be viewed by reasonable people as a "controversy" involving Michael Savage, given that Michael Savage's actions stimulated a reaction from his radio audience, and a counter-reaction from C-SPAN, that objectively could be viewed as "controversy."

Reasonable people can disagree about whether this development was de minimis in the larger scheme of the article, or whether sufficient sources yet exist to fully flesh out the nature of the development. However, these disputes should be matters for discussion, and certainly under Wikipedia's standards are not grounds for unilateral reversion without notice or discussion, particularly given the "seriousness" with which Wikipedia urges its users to regard this rather severe form of editing.

Thank you for your time, and I await your response.

==Comment==
First of all, I am using a one user laptop, and I am the only one who uses it. And FYI I have no interest in Singapore, and I didnt even enter that page. Please check your sources before accusing people. Thank you.
:You did edit [[Singapore]] here --->[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Singapore&diff=prev&oldid=138523273], so he was right to revert your edit. If you wish to make test edits, please go to the [[Wikipedia:Sandbox]]. [[User:Momusufan|Momusufan]] 14:50, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

== Wow ==

I just vandalised [[Smart and Smarter]]. If you look in the edit history you can't even see a difference in the time when I did that and the time you reverted it. If I had an account, I would definitely support your RFA. Too be honest, I just wanted to see what would happen if you made a page redirect to something that redirected to it.

Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux's marble sculpture 'Ugolino and his Sons', Metropolitan Museum of Art
La Danse (The Dance), Opera Garnier in Paris

Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux (May 11, 1827, ValenciennesOctober 12, 1875, Courbevoie) was a French sculptor and painter. His early studies were under François Rude. Carpeaux won the Prix de Rome in 1854, and moving to Rome to find inspiration, he there studied the works of Michelangelo, Donatello and Verrocchio. Staying in Rome from 1854 to 1861, he obtained a taste for movement and spontaneity, which he joined with the great principles of baroque art. In 1861 he made a bust of Princess Mathilde, and this later brought him several commissions from Napoleon III. He worked at the pavilion of Flora, and the Opéra Garnier. His group La Danse (the Dance, 1869), situated on the right side of the façade, was criticised as an offence to common decency.

He never managed to finish his last work, the famous Fountain of the Four Parts of the Earth, on the Place Camille Jullian. He did finish the terrestrial globe, supported by the four figures of Asia, Europe, America and Africa, and it was Emmanuel Frémiet who completed the work by adding the eight leaping horses, the tortoises and the dolphins of the basin.

Sculptures by Carpeaux

Neapolitan Fisherboy

Carpeaux submitted a plaster version of Pêcheur napolitain à la coquille, the Neapolitan Fisherboy, to the French Academy while a student in Rome. He carved the marble version several years later, showing it in the Salon exhibition of 1863. It was purchased for Napoleon III's empress, Eugènie. The statue of the young smiling boy was very popular, and Carpeaux created a number of reproductions and variations in marble and bronze. There is a copy, for instance, in the Samuel H. Kress Collection in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C.

Some years later, he carved the Girl with a Shell, a very similar study.

Carpeaux sought real life subjects in the streets and broke with the classical tradition. The Neapolitan Fisherboy's body is carved in intimate detail and shows an intricately balanced pose. Carpeaux claimed that he based the Neapolitan Fisherboy on a boy he had seen during a trip to Naples.
