I've made all the changes to the prose. Which white background are you referring to? If you mean the book cover, I'm not sure why there is all that space in the infobox. I removed the sizing parameter, but would be willing to hear other suggestions. Thanks for the review! Ruby 2010/2013 15:42, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, the image could be cropped to remove the white space. But hey, I can't see any real issues, so passing. Regards.--Kürbis (✔) 13:53, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
