Someone needs to make a seperate entry for "The BFG, Roald Dahl"

Yes they do:). It was here first, and there's already articles elsewhere for the other BFGs. --Paul A 07:39, 23 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I'd like to mention although the BFG is a giant and therefore bigger than most people. On giant terms he is really quite small, so he shouldn't be known as the BIG friendly giant, but technically the Quite Small for a Giant Friendly Giant or the QSGFG. (203.208.69.48 03:17, 25 February 2006 (UTC))

This should lead to a disambiguation page. The BFG is more well known as the Big Fucking Gun from Doom and as the many other things BFG stands for. Just because this page was supposedly created first (which it wasn't) doesn't mean that it should lead here. Armyrifle 04:14, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

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

Image:BfgCover.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 01:30, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The fourth wall.....

I think that this article should have something about the "fourth wall" as seen in James and the giant peach.... This is due to the fact that at the end of the book, Sophie theachers the BFG to become literate, and then, he writes an book about his adventures.... Do you agree.... im just afraid of screwing up since im not too sure about this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joeltan111 (talk • contribs) 11:25, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
