Fair use rationale for Image:Endymion cover.jpg
Image:Endymion cover.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 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.

British Fantasy Award
The lede says that Endymion was nominated for a British Fantasy Award in 1996. The problem is that it isn't listed as a nominee in any of the usual references sources for science fiction awards, including Locus, Worlds Without End, or the BSFA site itself. The source for the claim is the author's own website. My guess is that it is either an error on the part of the webmaster at Dan Simmons' own site, or Endymion was longlisted and didn't make the actual shortlist nomination. If I can't find some independent source that Endymion was nominated, I'm leaning toward deleting the reference. Thoughts? --Icowrich (talk) 20:26, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

UPDATE: I deleted the reference, since there don't seem to be any objections. If anyone does confirm a presence on some sort of BSFA longlist (they didn't release the longlist back then), please let me know, and I will reinstate the claim. As of now, the only source is the author's own page, which may be in error, as it contradicts other authoritative nomination lists.--Icowrich (talk) 20:32, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
