[edit] Dungeon scene

• After the Queen takes the potion, she runs down to the Dungeon and comes upon a skelaton trying to reach through the bars to a jug of Water just of of reach. With glee she kicks the bones around. {Skelaton-is Humbert?}

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:73b4.jpg

I found Image:73b4.jpg and noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. Someone will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If it was obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If there are other files on this page, consider checking that they have specified their source and are tagged properly, too. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 04:21, 26 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:73b4.jpg

Image:73b4.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.

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.Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 04:21, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Another TV version?

I remember little about it, except that it was animated. It may have been from wannabe-Japanese company Saban. (They have adapted other fairy tales) Nonetheless, what stuck out to me about it was that the Queen tries to kill Snow White by crushing her chest/suffocating her with a bodice lace she sells her. It knocks her out like the apple in the usual versions. Anyone have further information?

[edit] Lead image

Every image this article has gets deleted. We need a new permanent image. I want to get this article up to Feature Article status because I feel it has potential. --Jupiter Optimus Maximus (talk) 18:47, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

The article has quite a few problems that need sorted before FA - no citations, the odd handling of the Grimm brothers (they didn't adapt it, they collected it; and the 'German version' is the Grimm version, but they get separate sections?) In any case, an image from an early illustrated Grimm's would work, eg [1] (the Franz Jüttner ones are great, but I his pictures of the queen are less recognizable than the other characters. There's 3 of the queen:[2] [3] [4]). There's this on Gutenberg: [5] (thats in [6], a reprint of a work published 1886). They also have this Dutch edition with fantastic drawings, no queen but worth a look: [7]. I'll add one to the page. Bazzargh (talk) 20:35, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, Bazzargh old friend. I was of the impression that the German version was a varient of the tale which was adapted by the Grimm Brothers. If not I'll remove the section on the original German fairytale. Thanks for downloading that image though if I may say so I don't think it's an ideal representation of the queen. After all it depicts her in her "hag" shape rather than her true form. --Jupiter Optimus Maximus (talk) 21:30, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

No, they collected the tales from storytellers. The first edition was a scholarly work; though they changed the tales a little when it took off as a kid's book (even the edited stories are much more bloodthirsty than the versions in kids books today!). I've just updated the Grimm section, I had a copy of the complete tales next to the computer, handily enough. As for the image; yes, well there's quite a few mirror-mirror pics on the commons, but they're not as pretty as this one, and the mirror doesn't look especially magical in any of them; the poisoned apple pic is a bit more identifiable I think. If you want to change it go ahead, but at least you're not cursed with non-free images now Bazzargh (talk) 21:54, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
