[edit] John Grogan page

John Grogan himself does not yet have a Wikipedia page. If you type "John Grogan" into the search box, you get a different John Grogan. Perhaps some disambiguation is needed now for this name. RSLitman 04:14, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Based on the link text in this article, I've created a stub page for the author entitled John Grogan (journalist) and have tried to fix all appropriate links going to the wrong "John Grogan". There seem to be three or four John Grogans and I think a disambiguation page is needed, but creating it is beyond my comprehension at this time. Ronald W Wise 23:42, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyvio?

[1] - the Synopsis section there is VERY similar to the Plot section here.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Marley & Me book cover.jpg

Image:Marley & Me book cover.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 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 04:57, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] POV/Unverified statements

I noticed some pretty POV statements and some unverified claims in the article (which I have tagged as such). I'm just letting people know here; it isn't overly imperative that it be fixed, there is no deadline, but it would improve the article. D4g0thur 07:48, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mark Pina

Who is Mark Pina and why does it matter that this film is being shot behind his house in Miami, FL? I don't think this qualifies as notable data. I only mention this because it's been re-added to the info over and over again. Flibbert (talk) 21:23, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
