Fair use rationale for Image:RingworldThrone(Niven).jpg

[edit]

Image:RingworldThrone(Niven).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 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.

Only Louis Wu returns to the Hindmost

[edit]

"Eventually he and Chmee return to the Hindmost and are healed..."

What I read, only Louis Wu returns from WeaverTown and Chmee never returns. Acolyte immediately joins as he returns from WeaverTown. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.99.49.98 (talk) 04:49, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Crucial dating error?!

[edit]

Is it just my edition or does Niven really mess up the crucial timing of the Fist-of-God impact? Louis tells the Weavers it happened 3,500 falans ago, or 1200 AD - but 3,500 falans ago corresponds to ~2100 AD as of 2900; 1200 AD would be ~7,000 falans ago. --Roentgenium111 (talk) 21:24, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
