RVW Symphony Names

Roger, on the RVW article, symphonies listings, you removed the designations of No.1, No. 2, No. 3, and so forth, and I don't disagree as a technical issue, except that to be consistent in this did RVW, HIMSELF, name his other symphonies with the use of numbering, (4, 5, 6, etc.)? I am of the impression that he actually named those by their KEY, ie, what is frequently called Symphony No.4 was named by him "Symphony in F minor", what is called No.5 was named "Symphony in D", what is called No.6 was named "Symphony in E minor", and the same pattern for Nos. 8 and 9.

I'll look into it also, but thought you might have specific references ready. Thanks, JackME 15:00, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay Roger, I see some anonymous editor has reorg/renamed the categories, and in the process has added back Symphony Number 1, etc. I support you, in changing those designations to reflect their actual names as used by RVW. But I'm not opposed to using the sequence numbers in parantheses to add clarity. Kennedy is quite the authority on RVW and then of course there is the RVW website too, so we should be able to get a definitive answer to RVW's own usage. JackME 13:54, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of John Davies (sculptor)[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on John Davies (sculptor), requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
It appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement of http://www.johndaviessculptor.com/. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
