Johann Praetorius (composer) moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Johann Praetorius (composer). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. TheInevitables (talk) 04:04, 25 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Many Praetoriuses :)

Thank you for your effort in getting this large group organized on English Wikipedia. It wasn't very helpful of the family to name half of their boys Hieronymus and the other half Johann. :) TooManyFingers (talk) 16:08, 29 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, these 16th- and 17th-century organists are a constant worry : ) Thanks for catching my mistypings. Masato.harada (talk) 16:58, 29 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You may wish to tell us about heliocentrism in the Talk page of the article entitled "Galileo Galilei". You might tell us what the sun is the center of. It is not the center of the solar system, our galaxy or the universe. G6m823hl (talk) 11:50, 31 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think you have the wrong person. Masato.harada (talk) 12:26, 31 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sources for Richter (surname)

Hi, I understand why you reverted my unsourced note about the German surname “Richter” referring less to the current concept of a judge (“Richter” in German) and more to the medieval concept of a mayor (“Schultheiß”). The German article has this reference: U. Hagner: Die Amtsschultheißen und Amtsrichter in den preußischen Dörfern vom 16. bis 18. Jahrhundert. In: Jahrbuch des Museums Hohenleben-Reichenfels. Hohenleben 1985, S. 21–46. Does that help? --~2025-40244-79 (talk) 11:35, 1 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Anne Bronte

Hello Masato.harada: I know we share an interest in the Bronte sisters; I was looking at the editing history of Anne Bronte and it looks as if there is a copyvio issue: I've been back along the history of the page, and it looks as if the issue is long standing, although it's complicated, and I can't be sure which sources are mirror sites and which may be copyvio material. I'd appreciate your eyes on the page, if you have time, and your thoughts on what to do: it looks like it might need a complete rewrite if the issues turn out to be at this end. Anyway, any advice you can offer would be welcome. ArthurTheGardener (talk) 20:12, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@ArthurTheGardener, Happy New Year, and congratulations on becoming a new page reviewer! Sounds like a lot of work...

I'll try to look at it in the next few days. Can you be a bit more specific? Are you concerned about images, quotes, or the text? Any particular sections? Since I don't have any of the reference or further reading material, I can't do a line by line comparison. If you've got concerns or intend to do a rewrite, I suggest you voice those on the talk page first. Masato.harada (talk) 09:32, 6 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

It's mostly the text, which according to Earwig's copyvio tool overlaps a lot (97%) with one specific website (but there have been issues throughout the page's evolution, and I don't have the experience to say for sure which are mirror sites, and which have been used to actually help create the article). According to the talk page, this would seem to have been going on for a while. If you have time, I'd appreciate it if you could have a look-see. ArthurTheGardener (talk) 10:31, 6 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I've never tried doing an investigation like this before, nor have I used Copyvio Detector. I assume your concern is the 97.5% similarity with the Scarpanto Lady website http://www.scarpantolady.com/anne-bronte-remarkable-women-17/.

Scarpanto Lady's page is dated January 17, 2021. The Wikipedia version of the Anne Brontë article immediately predating this is revision no. 999693178, dated 11 January 2021.

If I use Copyvio Detector to compare this version with the later-dated Scarpanto Lady page, I get a 98.4% similarity. So, my conclusion is that Scarpanto Lady largely based her page on the existing WP article as at that date, and she is the one potentially in copyright violation.

Haven't look at the lower similarity websites. Interesting tool. Hope that helps. Masato.harada (talk) 16:10, 6 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks: I appreciate your thoughts on this. ArthurTheGardener (talk) 18:52, 6 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
