Middle Name[edit]

The article lists Robert Sabuda’s middle name is Michael. One of the books in the article, The Christmas Alphabet, Orchard Books, ISBN 0-531-09492-8, is attributed on Amazon to Robert Clarke Sabuda. A google search on Robert Clarke Sabuda returns a Japanese bookseller’s site which attributes many books to Robert Clarke Sabuda which are elsewhere (Wikipedia and Amazon, for example) to Robert Sabuda. A google search for Robert Sabuda yields his website, which lists books elsewhere attributed to Robert Sabuda or Robert Clarke Sabuda. So I think his middle name is Clarke, not James. However, I am new to Wikipedia editing and don’t know if the above information is enough to justify changing the article. If so, the list of books may be incomplete as well.

I changed his middle name to Clarke. --Phillicia Cattertails 20:33, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Sabuda was credited as Robert A. Sabuda in The Search for Kä published by Bantam. An ISFDB editor e-mailed him about this with the reply being that his middle initial is "J." and that the publisher made an error with one book in the series where "A." was used. I've corrected the middle initial in main article from "Clarke" back to "James" based this. He does not state his middle name on his web site and so it's assumed he'd rather be known as "Robert Sabuda" without a middle initial/name meaning the article title Robert Sabuda is fine.

I took a look at Amazon to understand the Robert Clarke Sabuda credit. This is apparently in error as he did several joint projects with Clement Clarke Moore and somewhere along the line the names must have been merged as "Robert Clarke Sabuda" when importing the data into Amazon. The cover images clearly show either "Robert Sabuda" or "Clement Clarke Moore & Robert Sabuda." See [1] Marc Kupper (talk) (contribs) 17:10, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Illus sabuda.jpg[edit]

Image:Illus sabuda.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 ensure 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.
