Cover
How do I insert the cover art into an infobox? Also, I just finished "The Last Thing I Remember" today (started yesterday). I tried to find reliable and accurate summaries of the book online to cite, but couldn't. What should I do or use to cite? Thanks Diligence 5960 (talk) 01:44, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Steven Erikson question
Hi Alan! I've just stumbled across a Steven Erikson interview I hadn't read yet and I've added a little more the bio section of the article. I have a quick question: in the interview Erikson states the books he wrote as Lundin are out of print. Is that still true? If not, then I'll change the sentence. Thanks.

Rollback is faster although it should normally only be used on vandalism. I will revert all the not already reverted edits. With multiple tabs I can do this OK without rollback and using proper edit summaries. I suggest you stop so we don't spend time checking the same edits. PrimeHunter (talk) 13:34, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Re: Tom Waits/Dr Parnassus
The lede should list only films for which Waits is well-known, which is why numerous other films in which he has appeared have been removed. He is certainly not well-known for his role in Parnassus because the film has only been seen by a very few people. Yes, it is arguably his biggest role to date, and it is very likely to become his most famous, but that is not the current state of things. The bloody film has not even been released in the United States yet. ---  RepublicanJacobite  The'FortyFive' 01:47, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Hi Alan16! Thought I'd touch bases regarding the deletion of Founding races from the Malazan Book of the Fallen series. It occurred to me that it might have been better to convert it to a list, and I should have just gone ahead and done so a few days ago. At any rate, I think you should move copies of other such articles to a sandbox to preserve and then consider converting to a table/list format to help prevent the same fate to other such pages.
