[edit] Discussion

I'm not sure that it's quite accurrate to refer to BR as a thriller or a crime story - I doubt it would be listed as either in a bookshop.

I know it's been the subject of book discussions/readings that were about crime fiction. I just checked Amazon, and it's true that Amazon doesn't appear to clasify it in crime fiction... Interesting point, but i think overall it's a good description ofthe plot. Amo 19:20, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

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

Image:Brightonrock.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 16:38, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Film

I have split the article, moving the information about the film to Brighton Rock (film). Count de Ville 01:59, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Still stub

This article is in real need of more content - particularly referencing. But more on the novel content and notability it is woefully inadequate for the importance of the work of literature it is. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:40, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

But not a stub, because 90% those who access it will find out what they wanted to know by reading it. Deb (talk) 12:30, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
And absolutely "None" of it verifiable (see WP:VER) as there no references, footnotes or even extrenal links. Very poor Wikipedia article. Even allowing for the fact there are quite a few words here. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 16:05, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
