[edit] importance

Boneyard (comic) is currently tagged ".. lacks information on the importance .. If you are familiar with it, please expand .. or discuss ..". How Boneyard is important in a comic-book-important way: (1) published 22 individual issues so far, 5 black-and-white collections and a colorized version of the first collection which is impressive because it is published by a small publisher and one guy does all the writing and art. (2) scriptwriter and producer John Rogers has said he is interested in being a producer of a film-adaption of Boneyard. (source: chud.com interview of John Rogers) (3) awarded ForeWord Magazine's Book of the Year Awards - Gold Award for best Graphic Novel 2005. --EarthFurst 09:35, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

I am also curious as to why the title is of questionable importance. Is there a criterion upon which a given title should or should not be listed on wikipedia? If Optic Nerve or Operation: Zero Tolerance have received the blessing of Wikipedia, why would this title not receive same?Sipfan 05:53, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Heh, Well, I'm glad there's more Boneyard fans out there becides me :-D I was worried for a bit, it was marked to be deleted a day after it was put up.

By Richard Moore, that makes it notable among comics. RJFJR (talk) 13:23, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

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

Image:Boneyard.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.

I am going to move this to Boneyard (comic), as I believe that makes more sense. Mynameisnotpj (talk) 03:43, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
