Notable?
editI am not going to flag the article for killing but... do we need this article?- sinneed (talk) 13:42, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
- Hi, I saw the list of books of Nicholas Sparks and this one is the best (to me) as the author has left his standard approach. So the other books have a good description and this one was missing.--Ruedi33a (talk) 08:33, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
- So, yes then! Add the citations to the article please. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 17:07, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
- Hi, yes the citations are a basic problem. The content of the book is not available in the internet. I have cited other reviews that are consistent with the summary I wrote. Give me more details, please Ruedi33a (talk) 05:27, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
- You have, as yet, cited no sources at all. I added the citation to the book. Please give wp:notability a read.- sinneed (talk) 13:06, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
- Now I have got it, thanks a lot!!Ruedi33a (talk) 04:58, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
I do not like the way Wikipedia violates the Copyright of the book covers just by reducing the number of pixels of the photo. I have added a suggestion in the info box: a direct link the to the cover in amazon.Ruedi33a (talk) 10:27, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
- I believe that if you look at the image, you will find a "fair use rationale", or the image should be deleted. If you find images that are in violation of copryright, I encourage you to flag them, as WP takes such very seriously, and they are simply not allowed. I am removing the link to the advert, and if there is a wp image for it, restoring that link.- Sinneed 19:31, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
Improving this article
editThis article still is a start class because:
- The number of sources don't really prove WP:Notability
- It doesn't deal with real world information (See Wikipedia:WikiProject Novels/Style guidelines)
To improve these I would suggest finding sources, on or offline, which deal with themes, publication history, critical review etc. Sadads (talk) 18:33, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
