[edit] Dead Roads

The article currently says that "dead roads" does not use the cut-up technique. I think that is inaccurate. The chapters aren't numbered so referencing this is tricky but, for example, see the early chapter that begins "No mistaking that gray shadow moving up the face as the gray lips move." The chapter ends with a sex scene that, like several in the book (as I recall) fade into cut-up. The effect is quite lovely and poetic and it seems wrong to deny it in the wikipedia article. -t

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

Image:PlaceOfDeadRoads.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 ensure 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.
