[edit] Exhibition

The use of the word 'recently' should be avoided, since it gets outdated soon... I'm replacing it with the exact dates in the article. Ninja neko 14:39, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Film work

I'm moving this

Giraud also shared "Story by" credit on the animated film Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland.

The image with the caption "A panel from Incal" is not a panel from the Incal-Comic but an single drawing with no relation to that comic. It may have been published in an (American?) edition of the Incal-Comic, but it has nothing to do with that story, exept that it, like hundreds of other drawings Moebius made, features a crystal. I wouldn't know what to write below that drawing, so I didn't correct the mistake.

It does look like an Arzach panel. Anyone know? MURGH disc. 00:05, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Blueberry Giraud.gif

Image:Blueberry Giraud.gif 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 03:26, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Major works

The present Major works section is quite incomplete and skewed towards the English translations. The preferable encyclopaedic approach would be to list the original French titles together with their original publication dates and the English translations (when available) together with the publication dates of the latter. A good starting point is could be this French website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stca74 (talkcontribs) 16:47, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

I agree, there is some overlap: The separate albums Stel & Goddess for example are part of the 'Le Monde d'Edena' series. The listing on Jodorowsky's page is pretty good. Ninja Neko, 9 May 2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.177.83.221 (talk) 09:13, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
