[edit] The Dreams Our Stuff Is Made Of

Hi - just found your article on this fascinating book. As some other editors have pointed out, this needs a lot of rewriting for neutral point of view; right now it's more of a review than an encyclopedia article. Describing the scope of the book and summarizing Disch's arguments: good. Calling anything "brilliant" or "highly amusing" or "eminently readable": bad. ←Hob 15:55, July 13, 2005 (UTC)

I like the new version, and I made a few more tweaks for format and flow. By the way, it helps if you log in with your username before you make edits to articles or talk pages, and sign talk page comments with ~~~~ - I had to look back at the history of the article to remember who was talking to me. Anonymous edits are OK too but then it's harder to tell what's going on. ←Hob 10:43, July 27, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks a lot - you've been a big help :) Euchrid 06:28, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Citadel of Chaos

Hiya, I've added the infobox to The Citadel of Chaos to begin with. Hope you like. Keep up the good work. Cfailde 16:13, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Skyfall

Skyfall is also the name of a novel by Catherine Asaro. I'm building it up. Can you help. Like, can we resolve this conflict of name together? It would help me learn. Thanks! JamieJones 01:30, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

The thing to do here is to change the Skyfall page from a redirect to Legend of Skyfall to a disambiguation page which provides links to both entries. I've done that, but feel free to change it as I know nothing about the Asaro books and you may want to alter the details. Euchrid 07:06, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fighting Fantasy

Hello Alex — I thought I should write you a note since you seem to be one of the major protagonists in the Wikipedia Fighting Fantasy pages. I'm interested in contributing to this collection of pages and it seems sensible to have some discussion with people about this.

First off, I've made a rewrite of Moonrunner and added Legend of the Shadow Warriors to Wikipedia, and I'd really like to have your comments.

Second, it's noticeable that the pages for the different gamebooks are very uneven in style and content, and it might be worth rewriting a lot of these to bring some sort of uniformity. Of course, some books' wikipages will have to have extra sections or details, but I think we can bring a lot of improvements to what's there right now.

The basic form I have in mind would follow what I've done for those two books: (i) an intro along the lines that you provided, giving the technical info, followed by (ii) a spoiler warning; and (iii) an overview of the book, not in a separate section since it will be short. This would be followed by the "See also" section containing the usual links, and if necessary a Notes section to give footnote references. All books would also have a Fighting Fantasy infobox. A possible additional section, where necessary, could be Errata (one or two books have misprints and errors in them).

What do you think? —WebDrake 18:28, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Format of articles

The resemblance to the format you used is not coincidental: I saw the way you'd laid out Moonrunner, liked it, and decided it was worth extending to the rest of the articles. :-) I probably should have credited you in my comments on the FF Talk page but I wasn't sure if the format was your invention, or somebody else's. Anyway, I'm glad you like the work — Stephen Hand's books are some of my favourites as well! —WebDrake 17:39, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Dead of night.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Dead of night.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:35, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Creature of havoc.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Creature of havoc.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 03:32, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
