[edit] US- UK confusion
The ealrier editor of the entry took most info from the UK expected publocation. the picture is th eUK one. I guess the ISBN, too.
The publicaiton date was corrected to the US one. But the piucture is still the UK one.
See on [www.fooledbyrandomness.com over here] links to amazon in the US an UK, if someone wants to rectify the confusion.YechezkelZilber 01:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Began Refactoring Page
I updated the book's description paragraph. I plan to start on the arguments section next, as it would be more appropriate to stick with how Taleb lays out his idea in the book rather than reinventing the wheel.--Herda050 07:30, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed, about using his own definitions.YechezkelZilber 15:00, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:The black swan taleb cover.jpg
Image:The black swan taleb cover.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.
