  • ... that Father Chrysanthus (pictured) was a Capuchin friar and arachnologist? Source: "Father Chrysanthus died at his 'home', the monastery of the Capuchin Order at Oosterhout, Netherlands" "His career as an arachnologist began as a scientific lecturer to the general public" [1]

  • Okay - new enough, long enough, incredibly well-sourced, neutral and well written. Very good work which could well achieve GA status with some additional work. As for the hooks - ALT0 just states the obvious, but ALT1 is very hooky and also gives a better presentation of the subject. ShahidTalk2me 11:29, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Shshshsh: thanks for the review; I'll strike out the other two then since you prefer the other. Do you have thoughts on if the image should be used? Umimmak (talk) 06:11, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I believe it chould be used. It's not the clearest image without its caption, but it is quite relevant and contributes well to illustrating the content of the hook. ShahidTalk2me 09:20, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Title

[edit]

@Medusahead: Per your rationale that there may be many more "Father Chrysantus"es elsewhere, we can deal with that when another Father Chrysanthus gets a Wikipedia article written about them, and if that's the case the solution would be to use a parenthetical like Chrysanthus (arachnologist). The solution is not to flout WP:TITLE by selecting a name which the vast majority of sources do not use for him (the common name is clearly Chrysanthus, Father Chrysanthus, or Pater Chrysanthus -- you have not even bothered adding a citation showing a reliable source referring to him by this conglomeration of his religious name and birth last name), nor is it to make a controversial page move without any discussion beforehand. I think the solution would be to move it to Chrysanthus (arachnologist) instead of this name which is decidely not the WP:COMMONNAME, but again you should discuss moves before doing something this bold in the future.

@Medusahead: This move will require an administrator because of the pre-existing redirect page; before I make the request please make sure this compromise works for you. Umimmak (talk) 20:36, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just to show there is broad consensus for not using this made-up name "Chrysanthus Jannsen" and also that of "Father" (or "Pater" in non-English sources) is also exceedingly common. Umimmak (talk) 21:41, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 24 September 2023

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Moved back to Father Chrysanthus. There is a clear consensus that "Chrysanthus Janssen" should not be the title of the article, but no consensus between "Chrysanthus (arachnologist)" and "Father Chrysanthus" (and both options are backed by reasonable arguments). I have chosen to revert it to "Father Chrysanthus" because that was the stable title for over a year, but this is simply a WP:NOTCURRENTTITLE decision so anyone who feels strongly about the arachnologist disambiguation is free to open a new RM.

Chrysanthus JanssenChrysanthus (arachnologist) – Chrysanthus, although born Wilhelmus Egbertus Antonius Janssen, is hardly ever referred to by the "Chrysanthus Janssen" with a combination of his monastic name and birth surname. None of the sources used as references for this Wikipedia article use this name (see #Title above), and there are only four Google hits, all in Dutch and three of which are trivial mentions, for "Chrysanthus Janssen" unrelated to the Wikipedia article's new name after it was changed without discussion from Father Chrysanthus (courtesy ping Medusahead). English sources routinely refer to him as "F[athe]r Chrysanthus" or just "Chrysanthus", but as he is notable for his arachnological research and Chrysanthus already exists as a disambiguation page, Chrysanthus (arachnologist) would work as a new name for this article; it already exists as a redirect here. Discussion at WT:D#Can a (religious) title be used to disambiguate? (courtesy ping: Cullen328, SMcCandlish) confirmed that the parenthetical (arachnologist) would be preferable to use of the title in the article name. Umimmak (talk) 01:44, 24 September 2023 (UTC) [Edit: just to clarify my own position, I just don't want it to be at Chrysanthus Janssen, but I don't have strong opinions between the article's original title Father Chrysanthus and Chrysanthus (arachnologist) — it just initially seemed there'd be more support for the latter so that's how I formulated the move request discussion.
