[edit] Critical response

Writing in The New York Times, critic Vincent Canby called the film "harmless", adding that the writers "stretched the fable without mercy, largely to accommodate a whole bunch of forgettable songs by the Shermans", and that, as the Prince and Cinderella, "Mr. Chamberlain and Miss Craven have impossible roles that are less like characters in a fairy tale than pictures on a jar of peanut butter." Vincent Canby - "Screen: Glass Slipper Into Sow's Ear", The New York Times, November 5, 1976. Retrieved December 1, 2006

The above POV comment has been moved to the talk page because the linked page is not available to unregistered readers of the newspaper. Figaro 19:37, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

I've restored the passage to the article (adding the notation that it does require registration). Drawing on response from critics is appropriate and does not violate NPOV. Excluding a citation because it comes from a limited-access site is like saying that citations from books are not allowable because not every editor or reader has access to every book. Based on the half-dozen or so reviews I have seen, Canby's critique is representative, and he was at the time of the film's release a major presence in film criticism.

[edit] Songs - merge proposal

An article as been created for each song in the story - but I think as these are doom to be stub sized articles forever they should be merged into the main article and redirects left. Any opinions? Madmedea 11:26, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:The-Slipper-and-the-Rose-CD.jpg

Image:The-Slipper-and-the-Rose-CD.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.
