[edit] Use of American Magazine art
As the contributor who uploaded the American Magazine illustration that's recently been added here (as well being as the person who created this article), I'd rather not see this non-free 2D art used outside of the Nero Wolfe article. I wrote the fair-use rationale language on the image page to restrict its use to the Nero Wolfe article, where I've argued that its fair use is justified. It is an informational image there, since that particular novella is discussed; and it is a significant representation of the fictional character Nero Wolfe, the subject of the article. On the radio article, the image appears to be decorative. I wish I could assert that it's free of copyright, but lacking the authority of the research to back that up I've simply contributed it as a non-free image and provided that limited fair-use rationale.
What really seems to be needed is a photograph of Sydney Greenstreet, the most notable of the Wolfes on radio. I've seen such a photo in a book — Jon Tuska's The Detective in Hollywood (1978) ISBN 0385120931 (page 60). The photo is captioned, "Sydney Greenstreet, surrounded here by beer and orchids, playing Nero Wolfe on radio." The photo credit reads, "Photo courtesy of Views and Reviews Magazine." Tracking that image down and uploading it would contribute to this article significantly.
For now, I hope there's consensus that using the Carl Mueller illustration on this article is pushing it, and that you understand why I'm removing the image. Thanks. — WFinch 02:16, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
