Trivia

That this book was subject of education on a school where the author worked is really trivial. This should not be part of a encyclopedia. --85.179.111.80 19:01, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

spoiler start

For some reason which i cant work out the start spoiler thing isnt working, i checked and it is done correctly but it just doesnt show up on the page...so basically there's no warning of approaching spoilers. not a stop-the-presses kind of a problem but puzzeling none the less.Trottsky 20:53, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like there isn't a {{startspoiler}} thing, just {{spoiler}}. Did {{startspoiler}} once work, then? Anyway, it doesn't matter now as {{spoiler}} is working.--A bit iffy 07:48, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:AngelaAshes.jpg

Image:AngelaAshes.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 Wikipedia articles 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.

If there is other 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.BetacommandBot 20:31, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Controversy

So Richard Harris, whose parents owned a mill, didn't have the same memories of Frank, who grew up dirt poor. Wow, how shocking. Wouldn't it be more honest to mention the differences in their social economic positions. Sorta like growing up inna squat in NYC then haveing someone who lived in a pent house saying NY was nothing like that.69.154.138.223 (talk) 09:30, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't Harris have an underlying grievance with McCourt from years back when the latter punched the former in the face in a bar in NY and then ran off?
