Missing painters from Alsace[edit]

I've created a sandbox list of painters born in Alsace who are missing on Wikipedia as of now: User:Edelseider/Alsace red links#Painters. Some of them are Germans, some of them are French, depending on when they were born. I intend to "bluelink" some of them some day but feel free to pick and choose any of them for your own pleasure! --Edelseider (talk) 09:38, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The painter Claude Lorrain (biography in Wikipedia) is missing from the list[edit]

I've discovered that the French painter and engraver Claude Lorrain (1600-1682) is missing from the list.

However, I was not able to find out what I should do for his name to be included in this dynamic list.

The wikipedia article includes the following Catergories:

I finally realized that the reason Claude Lorrain was not included in this list, likely was that his article was missing the simple category "French painters" which likely is the key that this dynamic list searches for. (So I've added said category to his article.) Perhaps this could be stated somewhat more clearly to be the case. 146.192.143.221 (talk) 17:25, 15 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
