Talk:Saint Joan of Arc (biography by Vita Sackville-West)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Wikipedia guidelines for book pages

First off, there is a need for Wikipedia articles on the major works related to Joan of Arc. But, I can't say that I am entirely satisfied with this, even though it is my own effort.

Other Wikipedia pages on books, after the introductory material related to the book's nature and publishing history, might provide a plot summary. In the case of a biography, this makes little or no sense. Therefore, I have attempted at least the beginnings of a synopsis of the book's reception as seen in published reviews or critiques of historians and other scholars. This, rather than a review per se, seems appropriate. I just think it could be improved.

Are there any Wikipedia guidelines for such things? I couldn't find them.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Sackville-west joan.jpg

Image:Sackville-west joan.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 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.
