[edit] Relations to Norman Bates

Maybe Harris got his inspiration for Dolarhyde from Norman Bates in Psycho? There are one clear resemblance, which is the bizarre relationship with their grandmother... --83.91.25.155 20:16, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Painting confusion

The article states that Dolarhyde was inspired by the painting "The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Cloaked in the Sun" but no such painting exists. There is "...the Woman Cloaked in Sun" and "...the Woman Cloaked with the Sun," two completely separate (if similar) paintings. The article on the paintings themselves states that the painting in question is "with the Sun" but I can't be sure since I have not seen or read Red Dragon myself. Can someone fix this article so that we don't have this mistake? 70.153.136.63 05:59, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

In the book it is "...Cloaked in Sun". This painting is real in the novel, but no such painting exists is reality. At least that's what I got from the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.236.132.180 (talk) 04:10, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Francisdolarhydereddragon.jpg

Image:Francisdolarhydereddragon.jpg is being used on this article. 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 there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. 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 09:02, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] MPD/DID

so is he or is he not a multiple? my personal opinion is that he's deeply psychotic but not DID; but the article itself goes both ways. which is it?Metanoid (talk, email) 00:20, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, its not like the dragon completely takes over. Its more like a voice in his head that tells him to commit murder.--CyberGhostface 00:52, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
