Bibliography of S. E. Hinton[edit]
My third list for the FL contest. I've had it reviewed on the talk page, and now feel it is ready. Any concerns will be addressed, as usual. iMatthew 19:50, 3 November 2008 (UTC) [reply]
- Comment The image has no fair use rationale for this list. Gary King (talk) 20:05, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I see what you meant, now. I'll ask the uploader later, thanks. iMatthew 20:07, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- There is a good chance that the image is unacceptable for this list. The rationale needs to explain why this image will significantly improve the reader's understanding of the list; I don't think the image provides this. Gary King (talk) 20:13, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The image needs a seperate rationale for each article it is used for. Furthermore, I'm not sure how having an image of the book is essential to the list and thus doesn't meet WP:NFCC. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 19:20, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Removed. Do either of you two have a suggestion for a better picture to use? iMatthew 19:25, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- A picture of the author. Whether or not this is feasible, I do not know, though. Gary King (talk) 19:48, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- There are plenty of images of the author out there, but you'll have to do some hardcore emailing and such if you want to get permission for free use of the images. Then you just upload the image with the proper license and forward the email to OTRS. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 19:00, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments - sources look okay, links checked out with the link checker tool. Ealdgyth - Talk 17:56, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Arrrgh-you-beat-me-to-it-Support: I don't think I've seen a more engaging intro on a list, even one of mine. --Slgrandson (How's my egg-throwing coleslaw?) 10:50, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from Dabomb87 (talk · contribs)
- You might want to add a parenthetical note that says she is referred to as S.E. Hinton.
- "Susan Eloise Hinton is an American author, best known for writing young adult fiction."-->Susan Eloise Hinton is an American author who is best known for writing young adult fiction.
- "Hinton released her first children book"—I'm pretty sure it should be "children's book".
- "Hinton's third children book" Same here.
- "Hinton has also won a "School Library Journal Best Books of the Year Award" for Rumble Fish (in 1975),[5] and Tex and Taming the Star Runner (in 1979)." No comma needed.
- "Hinton's first and
currentlyonly award" Dabomb87 (talk) 01:23, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comments I would split the publisher and the year in the first table and I would also add an entry like "Number of awards won". Then the second table would make much more sense. Nergaal (talk) 06:36, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
