[edit] why is there so much meaningless nonsense?

why is there so much meaningless commentary (plot information), sections (trivia, individual characters), etc. in an already long article about an equally meaningless film? this page looks like some fanboy wrote it and just wanted to include every possible mentionable in the covenant universe. 76.118.71.19 (talk) 02:37, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. This article needs serious attention. It takes longer to read the article than it does to watch the movie. The plot outline needs to be trimmed by about five paragraphs, and the character breakdowns are completely unnecessary. This was a terrible movie, but it appears to have gained a cult following among "net nerds" (apologies for the negative connotation), and they've gotten a bit out of control editing the article.

[edit] How come there is no mention of it being based on the Image graphic novel. =

I was reading in a issue of Wizard and it said that this was based on the image graphic novel. Amazon.com also has a description of it and the main people in this movie have the same name.

[edit] charater articles =

each individual son of ipswitch or whatever doesn't need an artile. in fat, each article is just their excerpts here pasted and a profile template added. i think they should be deleted.68.226.132.77 03:56, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Steven TC.jpg

Image:Steven TC.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.
