Image:Onewhowalkedalone.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.

She was a friend and biographer of Robert E Howard. Ashmoo ( talk) 14:44, 14 June 2023 (UTC) reply

The article indicates that Mrs. Ellis had two children and both of them were named Melvin Douglas. If this is accurate, it demands clarifying. Simply mentioning such an unusual occurrence without comment makes it seem like a factual mistake. 2601:601:9280:77A0:B5F8:236F:33B2:E4F7 ( talk) 04:26, 9 March 2023 (UTC) reply

Apologies, the name shared by the two children is Marvin Douglas, not Melvin. 2601:601:9280:77A0:B5F8:236F:33B2:E4F7 ( talk) 04:29, 9 March 2023 (UTC) reply

None of the biography is sourced; it correlates so closely, even down to the description of her relationship with Howard, to the biopic The Whole Wide World that I question whether the movie was the source of the information. I would like to see a reliable source noted—movies take too much artistic license, and this one didn't even claim to be based on a true story.
