[edit] Setting

I don't think you can actually claim that a text is "set" in a certain place if the text doesn't actually claim that place. As you say in the second sentence, the setting of the novel is Garradrimna, a fictional town. Therefore, that is where the novel is set. It might be useful to observe that the geographical landmarks indicate that the fictional town of Garradrimna coincides with the real-world town of Delvin, but the novel itself is set in Garradrimna. See if the change I am about to make is satisfactory. Applejuicefool 19:44, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:BrinsleyMacNamara TheValleyOfTheSquinting Windows.jpg

Image:BrinsleyMacNamara TheValleyOfTheSquinting Windows.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 Wikipedia articles 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 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.BetacommandBot 16:37, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
