Image:The Mysterious Mr Quin First Edition Cover 1930.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.

JTomlin put a fair use rationale with the image. No artist name is available to him from the image used, included in Details (after one clicks on the image in the article, this option shows). -- Prairieplant ( talk) 10:57, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
Actually, I own the original. The drawing is by my grandfather, Thomas Derrick – who died in 1954 and is identified as the artist on some recent reprints. I have added his name here and also to the entry on The Big Four, which is the other Agatha Christie cover he did. I have no objection to the use of the image and I am sure that it would be considered fair use by the publisher. 88.2.225.36 ( talk) 07:59, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
I have both originals, but more to the point he is named on the published dust jackets. You can also see his name on The Big Four cover (in the corner). 88.2.225.36 ( talk) 10:29, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
I have removed the statement in "The man from the sea" that the wife prayed for her husband to die, not to live. From the book: "The Spanish servants thought I was praying for his life to be saved. I wasn't. I was praying that I might wish him to be spared. I was saying one thing over and over again, 'God help me not to wish him dead. God, help me not to wish him dead.' But it wasn't any good. All the time I hoped - hoped - and my hope came true." The plot section is too long anyway, so I thought removing would be better than correcting.

I created a separate small article about the character without realizing that some facts about him are also mentioned in this article. I have done right though, I just wish it wouldn't redirect from Harley Quin (character) to this article about a book. :) Li 16:46, 3 July 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lilange ( talk • contribs)
Official article name should be The Mysterious Mr Quin, not The Mysterious Mr. Quin (see below). Quis separabit? 21:46, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

The Mysterious Mr. Quin →
The Mysterious Mr Quin – -- There is no period in book's title per original cover and UK MOS custom at the time.

It is noticeable that this extremely long article makes no mention of the antisemitism in the "The Soul of the Croupier", antisemitism that was denounced by the Anti-Defamation League. I think her description of "men of Hebraic extraction, sallow men with hooked noses, wearing rather flamboyant jewellery" deserves mention. Bohemian Baltimore ( talk) 10:45, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

@
EurekaLott: you mentioned when there's a primary topic, the hatnote should point there
. But what is the primary topic in this case? The DC Comics character is the primary topic for the "Harley Quinn" (two n's), while the Agatha Christie character is the primary topic for "Harley Quin" (one n), yet each of these can be reasonably confused not only with each other but with every item listed at
Harley Quinn (disambiguation), because we don't know what the reader meant based on just the typo. --
