Drawings/Converting this section12 messages

As of today it is only allowed to place real drawings and paintings in this section.
That is why the name has been changed to “ Drawing / painting ” and the long name has been changed to “ Drawings and paintings catalog (no printed matter) ”
We added that “no printing” to avoid misunderstandings.
We will remove the strange line after drawings later. (hm, but not then)

In the left column is still “visual art”
This is to leave it in its place in the overview for the time being, and also to let people get used to the fact that this section has been adjusted.
In a few weeks' time we will adjust this further, and this section will be placed next to the sugar sachets in the overview.

The reason for the conversion of this section is not only because the scope was too broad for a section, but also because art is too general a term. Everyone has their own opinion about what is art and what is not, and that causes problems on a wiki site,
This led to duplication, and too many items were placed in this section that had nothing to do with art (for example, I just added item 2607709 transferred)

In the coming period, this section will be further adapted to the more limited content.
The closed lists will also be further stripped of information that does not belong there, so that the classification will become more logical.

We will remove the strange line after drawings later.

What kind of strange dash? The dash it says is correct, isn't it?

Nothing but praise.

Really?

So "Drawings and paintings catalog" is not better?

I am also terrible in Dutch ...

No, that's much worse.
Hopefully, in 2012 we will finally get rid of all those unnecessary and annoying spaces in Catawiki ... (;-) Whatever depends on the quality of the new search engine.

Paintings really don't belong in the category of drawings. Sometimes Catawiki is really bad in that regard. For example, CDV and cabinet photos do not belong under photos. Hope that the owners ignore these categories as much as possible and therefore place them under the correct ones (in this case under others).

Also, when adding a painting, for example, you cannot do anything with "material". Technology, period (art deco or style) artist, school (Amsterdam, Laren) would be much more important ... Hope that we grow up again in that respect ;-)

Under Other they will be disapproved, as you noticed, as there is a Drawing / painting section for them, so I wouldn't recommend anyone to follow your advice. (;-)

What are cdv / cabinet photos, by the way?

Hopelijk komen we in 2012 ook eindelijk af van al die overbodige en irritante spaties in Catawiki... (;-) Valt of staat met de kwaliteit van de nieuwe zoekmachine.

Het is wat later geworden, maar de nieuwe zoekmachine lost dit probleem ook niet op.

Bijv. de zoekterm tijdschriftblijlagen vindt Tijdschrift bijlagen niet.

En omgekeerd wordt bij tijd schrift ook niet gevraagd of je misschien tijdschrift bedoelde.

P.S. CDV / Kabinetfoto (CDV = carte de visite)

Hopefully in 2012 we will finally get rid of all those superfluous and annoying spaces in Catawiki... (;-) The quality of the new search engine stands or falls.

It has become a bit later, but the new search engine does not solve this problem either.

E.g. the search term magazine attachments does not find Magazine attachments .

And conversely, with magazine you are not asked whether you meant magazine .

PS CDV / Cabinet photo (CDV = carte de visite )

Okay, Peter, but isn't that just some kind of photo?

From the source quoted by Boekenmagazijn :

The carte de visite is a type of photo that was mainly used in the 19th century.

So it seems like a kind of photo. So move everything from the Object CDV / Cabinet photo to the Object Photo with the type CDV or Cabinet photo.

An object description says it all, it is a Photo of the Type CDV or Cabinet photo. A kind says something about the properties (or type) of an object.

Just the idea I had. But then someone will first have to manually add the Type to more than 40 items, because there is no tool for that.

De definitie van "foto" is niet bepaald eenduidig, als je de inhoud van de rubriek Foto bekijkt.

Deze verknipte ansichtkaart mag alvast afgekeurd worden: 3429889

The definition of "photo" is not exactly unequivocal, if you look at the contents of the Photo section.

This cut-up postcard can already be rejected: 3429889

Film cell, limited cell or series cell.

These very similar shapes do not all fit well in this section.

The original film cell does have its own category and can therefore be used well placed.

a limited edition cell is also a manual product, but not an original film cell. Where should it be placed. Perhaps a new section is needed for the limited edition cell and the serial cell?

Please suggest how these 3 shapes fit well in a (own) category.
