[edit] Citation Please

I haven't seen the game and I am not well versed in the culture of Interactive Fiction, but any claim that a work contains the best character ever implemented in a computer game needs to be supported with citation. If it is "widely regarded" as the best, it should be easy to find an outside source which says so. I am sure it is a great work, but a list of awards it has won should indicate that very well.

Well, the claim was actually about the field of interactive fiction, not about CVGs in general, but the point is valid, of course. I've went forward and reworded the statement to be a clearly attributed quote. I also plan on adding several quotes from reviews and mentioning the sheer size of the game--it's 260 Kb of Z code, which is BIG by Z code standards (Curses is smaller!)--but that will have to wait until I get some much-needed sleep... ---Vladimir V.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Galatea computer game screenshot.png

Image:Galatea computer game screenshot.png 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 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.
