spoiler warning
editive just added the spoiler warning thing (template) --WalterHumala 05:24, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Why? It's only a synopsis (which in and of itself does not give any imperitive information about the book away), and the book has no "plot" to be spoiled; it does not detail a story of any kind. - Ecksem Diem 15:52, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Hegemony or survival.jpg
editImage:Hegemony or survival.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.

Hello! I will be reviewing this article. --Cerebellum (talk) 03:13, 20 October 2013 (UTC)
- It is reasonably well written.
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- Good coverage of the main ideas of the book without getting bogged down with excessive detail. In the Background section, consider removing the sentence "They agreed to publish with Metropolitan because it was co-run by Engelhardt and Sara Bershtel," it doesn't add much and makes it sound like Engelhardt is agreeing with himself.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- It follows the neutral point of view policy.
- Fair representation without bias:
- I like how you attribute controversial ideas to Chomsky instead of putting them in Wikipedia's voice. In the caption for the picture of U.S. soldiers in Iraq in the Synopsis section, consider saying just, "Chomsky considers the 2003 U.S.-U.K. invasion of Iraq as an attempt to secure lucrative natural resources and global hegemony" or phrasing it differently, since the bit inside the dashes is controversial and it sounds like you are asserting it as fact.
- Fair representation without bias:
- It is stable.
- No edit wars, etc.:
- No edit wars, etc.:
- It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
- a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
- a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
- Overall:
- Pass/Fail:
- Good work, I'm happy to pass this article. --Cerebellum (talk) 04:31, 20 October 2013 (UTC)

Contradiction between lead and Reviews section
editIn the lead of this article, it says that "Mainstream press reviews in the US and UK were largely negative" but in the "Reviews" section under "Press Reviews" it says "Views in the U.S. press were mixed." Since the latter statement seems more accurate given the contents of the "Press Reviews" subsection, I have changed the sentence in the lead to be consistent with this. Sourcewatcher (talk)
