[edit] Dec 20 Rem the plot synopsis

Because it's exactly the same as the dust cover. See the original HERE. Anchoress 13:58, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Other works references

I cleaned up this section a bit. About the Kingdom Hospital reference: could someone fill in what it means when the nurse gives "Kingdom" as an option? I'm not familiar with the Kingdom work/miniseries. Also, I removed the spoilers from the references section - that involved taking out the parts which set the exact place of the reference, but I think that it was necessary since they were pretty huge spoilers. -Elizabennet | talk 22:13, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

That's all sortof a glorified trivia section isn't it? Is it really notable? It takes up the majority of the article... - 142.167.78.37 (talk) 04:52, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Didn't King write a story containing Lisey?

"Lisey the madman" - is it the same main characters, or are they different somehow? DocRocks1 12:42, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Lisey and the madman was basically just a chapter from Lisey's story with some slight changes.--CyberGhostface 13:13, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

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

Image:Lisey.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 ensure 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.

[edit] Can't Get Through It

Sorry, I'm a big fan of King's works, but I'm barely past the third chapter and it almost seems as if I should be consuming large quantities of illegal substances just to make it further in the novel. It reads great and all - I just can't understand what the hell is going on. And since this is Wikipedia, I of course do not trust any plot elements provided on this site. I think I'll sell my copy on ebay and at least give myself some peace of mind that I got my money's worth off the book. --Guvmint Came And Took Mah Baby Away (talk) 05:11, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Meager plot summary

I haven't read this one myself, but it's still a very thin, under-detailed summary. Anybody who's read it want to volunteer? --MwNNrules (talk) 19:21, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
