Are these novels? Poems? Songs? What?
Short stories. Check the bottom. Liz 03:06, 19 September 2006 (UTC) [reply ]
Can we change the title of the "quotes" section to "quotations"?
Fair use rationale for Image:RichardFordbookcover.jpg
Image:RichardFordbookcover.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 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 05:13, 6 June 2007 (UTC) [reply ]
Improvements, February 2009
I've added a number of footnotes to this article, where previously there were none, and have generally tried to improve the substance and clarity of the article. I hope to add some more material in due course, and shall also have a go at improving the pages relating to RF's major works.Macphysto (talk) 10:44, 25 February 2009 (UTC) [reply ]
incomprhensible sentence
What is this sentence trying to say?
Since the Rock Springs collection, Ford's fiction, particularly the "Frank Bascombe" novels (The Sportswriter, Independence Day, and The Lay of the Land), enjoy material affluence and cultural capital not associated with so-called "dirty realist" style and subject matter.
