[edit] How are they vital?

Notice how I didn't take out all of the morphs; I left Rachel's preferred battle and flying morphs. And how they vital, anyway? A pure list by itself means nothing to anybody who has not read the series. Hbdragon88 22:22, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

I still think...hmm...the morphs are covered in the book chronology articles, though. If they were to stay, how would you recommend that they be tweaked? Hbdragon88 08:21, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I rewrote the portion on morphs of David. If that looks okay to you, I'll try to rewrite all of the bios in a similar style. Hbdragon88 08:47, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I actually think that bolding each morph is very distracting...all of them already have blue links, so it stands out even more and looks even uglier. Also, what is that "random male Controller" that David morphs? I dont't recall that scene... Hbdragon88 16:36, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, I guess you could bold the non-linked ones, but a bolded blue link sticks out like a sore thumb. I also can't remember that scene, but as I haven't read the book for seven years, I won't argue about it. Hbdragon88 17:37, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Animorphs books

Sure, that would be a good idea. I think the covers qualify as fair use, so they'd be appropriate for illustrating articles on the respective pages.--Lkjhgfdsa 15:12, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

I like the Invasion page. My only suggestion (I just implemented it) is to use the {{spoilerend}} template after the plot summary.--Lkjhgfdsa 22:46, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Optional paramaters

I managed to get some help on Parser Functions. I added a "Preceded by" and "Followed by" paramater into the {{Animorphs Books}} template, which eliminates the need to use {{neighbors}}, which I thought stuck out like a sore thumb. The image paramater is also nwo optional, so it doesn't look as bad for articles that don't currently have a book cover image. Hbdragon88 05:32, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Added note: I created Category:Animorphs books. I'll start populating the category with all the articles on the books that you've already written. Keep up the good work - I like the plot summaries a lot. Hbdragon88 06:48, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Animorphs bk51.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Animorphs bk51.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Animorphs_bka01.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Animorphs_bka01.jpg. 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. 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. Videmus Omnia 23:05, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Image:Animorphs bka01.jpg, by Videmus Omnia (talk ยท contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:FlindersUniHallSharks.GIF

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:FlindersUniHallSharks.GIF. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Animorphs bk05.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Animorphs bk05.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

The following images also have this problem:
