Fair use rationale for Image:Telzey Amberdon by James H Schmitz - cover.jpg[edit]

Image:Telzey Amberdon by James H Schmitz - cover.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 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.

Portals[edit]

In "The Lion Game", Telzey gets trapped in a series of rooms and other spaces connected via portals. The portals may be visible or camoflaged as parts of walls, floors and other surfaces. It bears many similarities to the game Portal, predating the game by 36 years. Such portals are used in several other stories set in the author's "Federation of the Hub" series of short stories.

Fix-ups[edit]

Surely The Lion Game is not a fix-up; it was a serial that became a short novel. What makes any of the other two supposed fix-ups a fix-up? I hope for some information from those who know. Zaslav (talk) 04:51, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Having no reply, I am changing the article to be more accurate (as best I can tell). Two are collections and the third is a novel. Zaslav (talk) 06:54, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
