message: :Image:ArsenalOfMiracles.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 Wikipedia: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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title: Kothar

message: I can't right now, and it would be perhaps frustrating considering the circumstances (ex: a thousand bloody pen names), but if Fox really is Rod Gray we probably need to clean up the article regarding the Lady From L.U.S.T. work. It definitely doesn't belong in section 3.3, for example, and isn't cited anywhere in section 6. Kell (talk) 20:22, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The article includes two lines:
* Comic book historians estimate that he wrote more than 4,000 comics stories, including 1,500 for DC Comics.
* During the course of his career, Fox can be definitely credited with about 1500 stories for DC Comics
The first suggests that 1,500 is an accurate-ish estimate, whereas the second isn't only claiming what he was "definitely credited with." I believe the first needs an "at least 1,500" in it introduction is probably needed to get them to match. How exhaustive is the source used ("Mike's Amazing World of Comics") because from it Fox only wrote 113 comics for other companies, which isn't the 2,500 suggested in the intro.
While it's worth knowing how high his numbers are, a source that only has a very low estimate may not be very helpful. If he really did, say, 3,000 stories at DC, saying "definitely credited with 1,500" doesn't seem fair to him. Duggy 1138 (talk) 05:59, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
