[edit] Translator

The translator is listed here as Garry Stephen; in fact, his name is Stephen Garry, a pen name for Harry C. Stephens. This information can be found here, and elsewhere: http://www.nytimes.com/books/98/01/25/bookend/bookend.html Unfortunately, I don't know how to edit the sidebar.

[edit] Plagiarism allegations

Should be something on the plagiarism allegations... AnonMoos 12:09, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

hey there is wrong information here. how can bondarchuk make an adaptation in 2004? he died in 1994 himself. --Arash red 05:12, 24 September 2006 (UTC)


his son had compiled an adaptation. that was bondarchuk's the worst movie, or maybe it was compiled not the was it was supposed to be compiled originally.

I haven't seen it, so can't comment on the quality, but the film languished in an Italian bank vault for a decade, due to some money feud. AllenHansen (talk) 11:43, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:MikhailSholokhov AndQuietFlowsTheDon.jpg

Image:MikhailSholokhov AndQuietFlowsTheDon.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.

[edit] Vol. 1 Manuscript

Should we mention that the manuscript of the first volume has been found and copies places in the Russian national Library? http://www.1tv.ru/owa/win/ort6_main.main?p_news_title_id=116182&p_news_razdel_id=6 AllenHansen (talk) 01:38, 5 February 2008 (UTC)


[edit] WikiProject Ukraine???

Why is this part of the Ukraine project? The protagonists are Don Cossacks and it mainly takes part in Russia. I know there were a lot of Ukrainians in the area, but the only really tangible connection I can think of is that Sholokhov's mother was half-Ukrainian.AllenHansen (talk) 02:40, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
