	Wow you did a heroic job on the Kindly Ones. A quick glance leads me to say an excellent job. My one quibble is that with so many small edits, it is hard to hard to react or particpate as you go along. In any case a big bouquet, you really improved the article on an important book.--] (]) 13:53, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
	: Thanks for the Le Débat ref. I do read French, but hadn't seen it. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be on line and I am traveling during the next 5 weeks, mainly behind the Great Firewall of China, but will look it up when I get back to a library in June. Likewise, I will try to read the two pieces but may find it difficult to give much of a reaction before June.--] (]) 13:58, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
	:I am not sure how to answer the question of references in other languages. I believe that there a certain resistance to that in general on Misplaced Pages--but maybe that happens when editors use a reference in language few know to justify a statement. One possible solution would be to see that the French references appear in the French Misplaced Pages version and the German etc. Then it might be useful to put a note in the English article that for those who read other languages, they might want to consult the references in the other language versions. Anyway, just an idea.--] (]) 09:41, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

	== Stephen Greenblatt photo - re: query ==

	I have another question. I've contacted ], and his assistant sent me a professional picture, saying that ''"Dear André, Please find attached a photo of Professor Greenblatt. If you need one with a higher ppi ration, I have one. The credit line should read Bachrach. Best wishes, Emily".'' The problem is, the picture was taken by "Bachrach", so I guess that I'll need to ask him for the license, not Stephen Greenblatt or his assistant. Is that correct? ] (]) 16:29, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
	:Perhaps or Perhaps not. I would say that Bachrach is actually the company in Boston. If the portrait was done as a ] then the copyright is with whomever paid the photographer. Often the photographer sells their services but retains copyright—as is usually the case with studio work I've come into contact with. Emily would need to check this out at her end - it should be covered in the contract with the photographer - ] ] 03:22, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

	== Credit on Lévi-Strauss picture ==

	Done ! I was looking at the ] picture with a view to nominating for a featured picture—basically because it is a wonderful portrait. Unfortunately there is lots of dust on the image (which can be fixed) and some weird jpeg related compression artifacts in the background....I'll see what I can do though as we have far too few images of people like this and should celebrate them more - ] ] 04:59, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

	You continue to do a great job on this article. I am particularly impressed with the internal links between the footnotes and the references.

	== Revision history of List of oil spills ==

	Mr Evenfiel,

	I'm sorry you do not understand the chart. You seem to be very experienced at providing Wiki content. I however am not. I did that chart for my own interest to summarize the incident frequency of oil spills. I did another one to summarize the amount of oil spilled per year. It was interesting to see the perspective and I thought I'd share what I did.

	The graph is certainly missing an explanation, there's no doubt about that. It wasn't clear to me how to put it in and already just adding the chart took more time than expected. I would be happy to write a description and even have you critic it.

	The chart does make sense, it's called a ] and it represents the frequency of incidents per year (1 every 5 years would be 0.2 incidents/year). You'll see that there has been a gradual increase over the past 50 years, with a few surges. The same information could be represented as a histogram with discrete bars representing, say every 5 years. I simply prefer the kernel density for its continuous form, but I must agree that the average user would maybe better understand a bar chart style histogram.

	As a more experienced Wiki content provider, what would you suggest I do?

	A) Add an explanation to the chart

	B) Just do a histogram and an explanation; simple for the simple user

	C) Leave it, nobody cares anyway
