Talk:Shadow Divers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I have completely rewritten the article because the original one sounded like a publisher's review blurb. While accurate it is not what is expected of Wikipedia articles. I personally own and have read the book so I felt I was qualified to write a better article than what was previously here.
I did not give extended plot details as some book articles do. I do reveal that three deaths occurred, the ending/near ending of the two men's marriages and the discovery of the U-Who's identity does indeed happen, however I have not included any information or a link to spoil it in the article, outside of the mention that the Nova special "Hilter's Lost Sub" was about the U-Boat.

- I added a redirect for U-Who to point to the appropriate U-Boat. I'm torn whether to make the U-Who references in this article links, since that won't give anything away unless you actually follow the link, whereas a direct link to the appropriate U-boat would show which one it was in the URL. -- Fordan 07:58, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
Quick question about the last paragraph in the synopsis. It says that the mystery ultimately almost ended Chatterton's marriage. I thought that Chatterton and his wife Katie got a divorce. I lost my copy of the book, so I'm not completely sure.
I believe you are right, it had been a little while since I had read the book when I rewrote the article, I will update it with that info, thank you. Draknfyre 20:20, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Shadow Divers Exposed
Should we reference Gary Gentile's book SHADOW DIVERS EXPOSED: The Real Saga of the U-869 ISBN 978-1883056247? The title would give away one of the secrets of Shadow Divers, but it does seem relevant. - Fordan 08:13, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
- Methinks it may be relevant too. I have read Kurson's book but not the "expose," so I don't know how much credibility the latter has or whether it is just a capitalization on the fame of the former book. Perhaps just listing it in the Extrenal Links would suffice. (?) Softlavender (talk) 04:20, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Shadowdivers.jpg
Image:Shadowdivers.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 this Wikipedia article 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 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
