User talk:Daniel C. Boyer/On other wikipedias
As well as the English Wikipedia, articles on Boyer-related subjects also appeared on the French and Korean Wikipedias, and Boyer (Boyerja)'s Tailgating Spinster is mentioned in the 2003 article of the Slovenian Wikipedia, the list of painters on the Polish Wikipedia and the Redirects article on the Japanese Wikipedia.
Korean
[edit]There is no article on Daniel C. Boyer on the Korean Wikipedia, but there is a page on The Tailgating Spinster.
- This page has apparently now been deleted. --Daniel C. Boyer 01:06, 19 Sep 2003 (UTC)
French Wikipedia
[edit]In may, Daniel Boyer created an encyclopedic article page on the french wikipedia. The page was initially moved to a user page, later restored. After User:anthere asked information on en, and to Daniel himself, an extensive discussion took place ([1], [2] and on votes for deletion)
This page is proposed for deletion since the 08th of may.
Maori Wikipedia
[edit]There is an article on Daniel C. Boyer in the Maori Wikipedia.
- And the chief contributor (so far) to that Wikipedia is pleased to have the article and now to have a "matching" User registration (the 26th). I would be even more pleased to see some interwiki links and other detail on the User page for that member. As for the article - we have an article on a somewhat obscure 19th-century English poet, so I don't mind having one on a modern painter (backed up by external sources). Kia ora.

Moved from the Village pump
A user called Daniel C. Boyer has created a page for himself on the french wikipedia. I saw he also has a page here, and saw mentionned the pump about this article, but did not find it. I would like to know exactly how much well known is that man, for he is absolutely unknown from french people, and I think his article will likely be deleted. Any advice please ? user:anthere
- I have nothing against Daniel, but I agree with ant. Googling reveals only 2 pages on Daniel in French. --Menchi 18:58 May 7, 2003 (UTC)
- I am getting four. --141.219.44.46
- Well...I made his personal user page myself, before the article page be deleted (but after it was blanked nevertheless). We frequently suffer free advertisment on the paint topic (pages about very new and unknown artists are created, with links towards their personal sites, or gallery). It has become quite burdensome recently. So, new artists are currently not very welcome. I think Daniel will be welcome, provided he proves one or two of his books have not been published at his account, plus one or two articles in serious and famous books or other publications. Articles on his grand father will not be welcome I guess. ant
- I can't remember where but I have heard of Daniel C. Boyer a few times before I edited Wikipedia. He seems to be a minor celeb and therefore deserves his own article and maybe a few articles on his best work. --mav
The current version of Daniel C. Boyer is written by me. I did this because I think if he's important enough to have several articles about his works included in Wikipedia, he should have a proper article about him in the main namespace. I made my case for this on User talk:Daniel C. Boyer. And I would say that just because he doesn't have a large French following doesn't mean he should be excluded from French Wikipedia -- although I guess that's not for me to decide. -- Tim Starling 02:56 May 8, 2003 (UTC)
- I restored the page for now. But if others disagree, it will go. I will add the link to User talk:Daniel C. Boyer. I hope though you would understand if tomorrow a person called Françoise Legrand made herself an account on this wikipedia, wrote *no* article whatsoever, except one dealing about her unknown artistic works, you would perhaps be a little bit surprised. I don't give more than 5 mn for the article to be deleted for self-promotion of an unknown (for english people) artist. There is a point it is very tough to judge of the fame of a person.

Hello Daniel.
Since noone seems to be willing to speak for you (ie, to keep the article associated with your name) on the french wiki, it is very likely it will be deleted in a couple of days.
However, note your user page is just fine. You may write it just as an encyclopedic article :-)
User:anthere
I thank you Daniel. I put the information on your article talk page, and see what will be done about that. The sad thing is that none of us is even the beginning of a knowledgeable person as your art is concerned :-( Does not make it easy to be tolerant :-) Anthère
Well, through his webpage you _could_ check out some photos of his works; http://www.vapa.com/gallery/danielcboyer/ Just a thought.. -- Sigg3.net
