Talk:Incident at Vichy

spoiler tags
Oops! Sorry, didn't mean to rollback your removal of the Spoiler warning tag. I thought there was a Wikipedia bug of some kind. Can you explain why we don't use Spoiler tags there? - glasperlenspiel 21:56, 7 July 2007 (UTC)


 * In general, if a section of an article is entitled "plot", "characters", "story", "themes", or something like that, the reader can expect that plot information will be revealed in that section, so the spoiler tag isn't necessary. (There is no way to write an encyclopedia article about fictional topics without giving away plot details.) There is general consensus that the section title alone is enough to warn the reader, since the Content disclaimer, available from the bottom of every page, already explains that our articles have spoilers in them. &mdash; Carl (CBM · talk) 22:00, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Incident at Vichy.jpg
Image:Incident at Vichy.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.

"one-act play"
Removed this misleading descriptor from lede. Incident is a full-length play designed to be performed without an intermission. Not at all what is implied by "one-act play"E.M.Gregory (talk) 02:25, 15 December 2015 (UTC)

Title spelling
Shouldn't the title of this article be spelled Incident at Vichy, with a lower-case "a"? -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 06:22, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

But is it true?
I have just seen the revival at the Finborough Theatre, London and my first reaction (setting aside the moral lessons of the play) was 'But is it true?' It seems a very inefficient way of 'dejewification' for a Nazi racial purity scientist to cruse the streets picking up lone random people and examining them - he even says at one point 'avoid crowds, we don't want to start a panic'. I don't see the point from the Nazi point of view; historically did it happen? 109.144.213.89 (talk) 08:16, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
