Lengthy quotes

Are these lengthy quotes from his novels really necessary? Philburmc (talk) 14:27, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No. And the whole article is unsourced and reads like fanboi spam. It's of note that Cook's literary executor is carefully namechecked in the text, which you wouldn't particularly expect in an article about a pulp author. Khamba Tendal (talk) 17:57, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Surely there is a copyright issue? The extracts go far beyond what the law allows (“fair use”) about which Wikipedia is known to be strict, see WP:CV 31.124.106.73 (talk) 09:01, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
