Mitch Cullin
Hi, I'm a bit perplexed as to why the author Mitch Cullin's notability was called into question in the first place, and, by default, his collaborator Peter I. Chang? I know Cullin isn't a household name, but as a writer he's hardly an unknown entity either (at least for us literary folks). The fact that Terry Gilliam turned one of his books into a film alone should be notability enough. In any case I've done some work on the page to bring it up to snuff, so hopefully it passes muster. I do think, however, that the notability tag is sometimes thrown around a bit too casually, especially in this caseBenderEnder (talk) 14:42, 28 January 2008 (UTC).


 * Hi, BenderEnder! I'm sorry you feel like that.  I tagged the article because the version I came across said, in a nutshell:


 * Here's someone who wrote seven books. He was friends with some notable people.
 * The current version is better - it seems to satisfy Wikipedia's Notability policy - "multiple substantial sources about the individual from reliable sources."
 * I appreciate the effort you put into the article! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 15:46, 28 January 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm a bit worried about Chang's article, though. He doesn't seem to meet the Notability criteria? -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 16:07, 28 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the welcome cookies, SatyrTN. Let me see what I can do for Chang's page.  I fear this might be a case where someone is notable but not all that googleable (is that a word?).  Perhaps editing down the page would make more sense. Anyway, I'll do some homework and see what I can do to make it satisfy the notablity requirement.  Thanks again.

 * Don't worry - Google isn't the be-all end-all :) If you can find reliable sources, it doesn't matter where you get them from.  They do have to be available in some form - see WP:RS, I think.  Good luck, and if you have any questions, please feel free to write me! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 01:48, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:The Post-War Dream Cover.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:The Post-War Dream Cover.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Courcelles 03:41, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
