Fair use rationale for Image:The Big Four First Edition Cover 1927.jpg

Image:The Big Four First Edition Cover 1927.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.

Summary

Edited. I have yet to complete it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.27.165.246 (talk) 15:29, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Spoilers

The third paragraph from the beginning features three major spoilers:

The book also features Achille Poirot, Hercule's twin brother (later revealed to be Hercule Poirot himself in 'disguise', though this is debated by readers) and Countess Vera Rossakoff, an agent of the Big Four that Poirot has met back when she was a jewel thief. It is implied that the Countess is Poirot's love interest, or at least something so close to that that it makes no difference.

First the revelation of Achille, then his real identity, and also the appearance of Countess Vera. Surely this paragraph is unnecessary? SplinterCell37 (talk) 13:19, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please read Wikipedia:Spoiler. The comment should remain somewhere on the page however the spoiler section just referred to does advise that items should be in sections marked "plot" or somesuch. Unfortunately the plot section on this page is not yet complete.--Jtomlin1uk (talk) 15:14, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
