[edit] FLCL

Do we really need the FLCL episode mentioned here? The connection to King's book seems like misinformation. Having read the book and seen the movie, and having watched FLCL, I see no relation between the two other than the name. If someone doesn't have a good explaination for what the connection is, I'm deleting this "information". -- LGagnon 12:14, Aug 24, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Pointless move

There was no need to move this; we could have made a link to the disambiguation page from the top of this article. After all, this is what is normally referred to when "Firestarter" is mentioned. -- LGagnon 21:41, August 30, 2005 (UTC)

A net search using google and yahoo for firestarter gives the firewall as the top result. Just what makes the book the "normally referred" one then? Please revert so the Firestarter page is a disambiguation page once again. --Ambar 04:14, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

As I said on your talk page, search engines don't determine everything. Honestly, what do you think people recognize better, a well-known novel by the world's best selling author or a firewall for an OS used by 1% of the population? The way I put it is pretty standard now and fits what people would be more likely to look up. I am going to move the article back here again. -- LGagnon 21:30, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

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

Image:Firestarter.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 [[Wikipedia:Fair == use rationale guideline|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. == i ;ov

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 07:08, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
