Leafkit and Squirrelkit
editJust to let you guys know, Leafkit and Squirrelkit were bor in FQ, not Midnight. I didn't change it, because I didn't know if there was a reason for it, but you might want to change it...

Fair use rationale for Image:NewProphecybook1.jpg
editImage:NewProphecybook1.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.
Plot issues
editI've removed the tag and readded the plot. If you object, please provide some evidence that there is any kind of consensous that removing material like this is a good thing. Hobit (talk) 12:58, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
- I added the plot tag, but the effect was not what I expected, I was hoping to attract some people willing to help with adding more non-plot info. Thanks--Res2216firestar 22:21, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
- Overly detailed plot summary is against Wikipedia policy. Doctorfluffy (robe and wizard hat) 18:05, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
- Support removal of disputed plot tag per [1], i.e. as the recent RfC has demonstrated that the community does not sufficiently support including "not" as part of plot. Sincerely, --A NobodyMy talk 18:26, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
- Indeed. A plot summary is like a film summary, and is allowed by precedent and guideline. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 06:20, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- Overly detailed plot summary is against Wikipedia policy. I find it interesting that whenever one the rescue squadron shows up, more of you soon follow to simply reaffirm each other standpoints on articles that you have never edited before and appear to have no interest in. This is no way to build consensus or improve the project. Doctorfluffy (robe and wizard hat) 16:18, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- Actually it isn't. A recent RfC has determined that Not#Plot lacks consensus; hence the disputed tag. Anyway, indiscriminately removing content while never attempting to reference it does not improve the project and nor does edit warring with multiple editors, including some of those who actually have been working on the articles in question. Sincerely, --A NobodyMy talk 19:02, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- And aside from lack of consensus, deleting information from a plot calling it "overly detailed" is a judgement call... one with which others are in disgreement. Length of plot detail bears direct relationship to what is being described. A short story might require a paragraph. A long novel would logically require a longer plot summary. All in direct relationship to what is needed to best inform the average visitor to these pages. Not for me... not for other editors... but for those who read wiki and expect to be informed. This one might require use of a delicate scalpel perhaps, but certainly not a machete. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 02:24, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
