[edit] Image licensing for Image:Sne.jpg

Hi, I've added a fair use dispute tag on an image you uploaded, Image:Sne.jpg for a couple of reasons.

  1. Copyright owners don't "allow" fair use. Fair use is when copyright owner has not granted permission to use the photograph, but the image is considered important enough for educational or informational purposes, and no free alternatives can be used.
  2. Unfortunately, I can't read Hebrew, so I can't tell if the copyright disclaimer on the original page is different from the standard "all rights reserved" language. But originally, you had added a license that only allowed non-commercial use, and Wikipedia doesn't allow non-commercial licenses.

Please go to the image page and correct the license, and add any fair use rationale that's appropriate. Thanks. Mosmof 15:14, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Joyce, Beckett and Userboxes

Fair enough, if you want to change Joyce's "preceded and succeeded by" tags, it makes no odds to me. I can see where Wikipedia's guidelines make sense for describing Star Wars or Harry Potter, but I'd have thought it more useful and more interesting for Joyce's work to see how it progresses through his life. Do people really pick up Ulysses to find out what happened next to Stephen Dedalus? Are they really disappointed when he doesn't show up in Exiles? (Of course, he's disguised as Richard Rowan in that play, so that would fool them.)

Good work on Dream of Fair to Middling Women, by the way - I'll maybe give you a hand with that when I've got a spare minute. --Quywompka 08:22, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Yaakov Shabtai title in translation

I'm presently doing some Wikipedia editing between the English and Hebrew editions on the topic of Israeli theatre, and have read some of your edits on the English-language page on the playwright Yaakov Shabtai. My question: What's the provenance of the title "The Spotted Tiger" for "Namer havarburot"? Was this Shabtai's choice? No English translation is listed in the US Library of Congress online catalogue, so I thought to ask you before seeking elsewhere. -- Thanks, Deborahjay 23:11, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
