[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:SuitefrançaiseIrèneNémirovsky2004.jpg
Image:SuitefrançaiseIrèneNémirovsky2004.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 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.

[edit] Case of Title > Upper or lower?
Why is this article, and the title of the book have the second word in lower case:
- "Suite française"
Should it not be:
- "Suite Française"
What's the scoop?

[edit] First book: Typed or handwritten????
In the article it says:
- :...was written in microscopic handwriting in a single notebook..."
At this website, http://pagesperso-orange.fr/guillaumedelaby/3_pi_telegraph_041023.htm, it says:
- "The first novel, Storm in June, was typed. The second, Dolce, written as paper became scarce, was in minute handwriting."
Which is right?

[edit] The manuscript and its rediscovery
In the article is says:
- "The notebook containing the two novels was preserved by her daughters but not examined until 1998."
&
- "Ironically, her elder daughter, Denise, kept the notebook containing the manuscript of Suite Française for fifty years without reading it, believing that it would indeed be a journal or diary too painful to read. In the late 1990s, however, having made arrangements to donate her mother's papers to a French archive, Denise decided to examine the notebook first."
But, this website: http://pagesperso-orange.fr/guillaumedelaby/3_pi_telegraph_041023.htm, says:
- "Not until the 1970s did she open the book "properly", after her Paris home was flooded and she decided to move it to the safety of a shelf.
- Over the next 20 years. Miss Epstein painstakingly read and transcribed, over and over again, her mother's text."
Which is it wizit?
