[edit] Continuity

You might want to look at where you place this story in the timeline. Buffy specifically mentions in the first issue of season eight that her decoys are underground, one of them literally, i.e. dead. So this takes place before issue #1.

The Slayer in question was actually living underground, so there's nothing to indicate this story doesn't take place after The Long Way Home. --Jeff-El 19:43, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Page Created

I've created the page for the comic, and posted what little info is available at this time.--Jeff-El 22:45, 10 June 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Location

Where exactly does this story take place? Is the Underground cavern the Clevelend Hellmouth?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.129.52.24 (talk • contribs) 23:04, August 7, 2007 (UTC).

I don't have the issue with me right now, but I don't think it really says where the underground entrance is. It's almost certainly not the Cleveland Hellmouth (Faith is supposed to be there in the next arc) or any other place like that. It's depicted more like an underground kingdom of sorts, with its own unique races that havnen't been seen above-ground before. --Jeff-El 03:02, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use image galleries

The use of images not in compliance with our fair-use criteria or our policy on nonfree content is not appropriate, and the images have been removed. Please do not restore them. Durin's essay on this is an excellent reference, but I'm happy to discuss the issue with anyone who needs clarification on the policy. -- Merope 23:47, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

...I'm pretty the use the the cover image would be fair use WITHIN the guidelines though, considering the article's specifically about this comic issue. Really, I'm getting annoyed with people putting things like cover images up for Speedy without considering the GASP! SHOCKING! notion that simple logic should show that even if there's no rationale put in the form, it's obvious that an article about a comic book issue, could feature the cover image of said comic book issue in a low resolution, under Wikipedia guidelines. I mean, I understand about wanting to be "strict" on Fair Use Overuse... but this is just taking it to some ridiculous extremes here. :\ 4.235.21.113 (talk) 21:18, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

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

Image:BuffyTheChainCover.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 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.
