You can view the TFL blurb at [[Wikipedia:Today's featured list/August 5, 2013]].

If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of [[Wikipedia:Today's featured list/requests/instructions|the suggested formatting]].

The series of novels and short stories centre on the exploits of the fictional protagonist [[Harry Flashman]], a cowardly British soldier and [[wiktionary:cad|cad]] who is placed in a series of real historical incidents between 1839 and 1894. While the incidents and much of the detail in the novels have a factual background, Flashman's actions in the stories are either fictional, or Fraser uses the actions of unidentified individuals and assigns them to Flashman. During the course of Fraser's novels, Flashman goes from his expulsion from school into the army. Although he is a coward who tries to run away from any danger, he is involved in a number of notable military episodes from the 19th century, often taking actions that cause or affect subsequently infamous events. Flashman is a minor character in the 1857 novel by [[Thomas Hughes]], ''[[Tom Brown's School Days]]''; a bully who is expelled from [[Rugby School]] for drunkenness. The character was then developed by Fraser, and appeared in a total of eleven novels and one collection of short stories featuring the character. Although chronology of the main series finishes in 1894, Flashman lives on until 1915 and he is also found in his late 80s in another Fraser book, ''[[Mr American]]''. - -</div></div> - -::Brill! -- '''<span style="text-shadow:7px 7px 8px Black;">[[User:Cassianto|<font face="Papyrus">Cassianto</font>]]^{[[User talk:Cassianto#top|<font face="Papyrus">Talk</font>]]}</span>''' 19:38, 22 July 2013 (UTC) - -== More Bond look alikes in music == - -Hehe pause at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkX6rZgR1qI 9:39] the guitarist could almost pass for the guy in Goldeneye Famke Janssen "squeezed" in bed screaming "yes".[[User:Tibetan Prayer|<span style="font-variant:small-caps;color:#832">Tibetan Prayer</span>]]^{[[User talk:Tibetan Prayer| <font size="-4"><font color="#C5B358">''᧾''</font></font color> ]]} 08:55, 23 July 2013 (UTC) -:He he - nice one! - [[User:SchroCat|SchroCat]] ([[User talk:SchroCat#top|talk]]) 10:46, 23 July 2013 (UTC) - -[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWO-34S4eas] One of the most irritating films I've ever seen.

The other required points all have separate parameters. -*Don't use "n.a." or "none" for any fair-use parameter - ''all'' NFCC-criteria must be met for fair-use. Most standard arguments like "replaceable" can be copied from similar non-free images. "Purpose of use" should ''not'' be copied from anywhere, but stated as detailed as possible in your own words. -I'll try to add a full review in the next days, but there should be no major issues left.
