 +A: Usually we delete the Cover Page image (as there's usually no content other than title and author, which is often already on the Title Page). In the case of A Boy Named Queen, the Cover Page is on a book jacket that has a summary of the book. We can keep the summary and put it at the end of the book (before Terms of Use) with a Heading 1 called **Book Summary**. See also [[public:nnels:etext:back-cover|Back Cover]].

 +Q: We Rise Again has a title page with a bunch of images on it. 
 + 
 +{{:public:nnels:etext:thorium_-_we_raise_again.png?400|}} 
 + 
 +Two questions: 
 + 
 +1) The subtitle is above the title on this page. Should I instead put it in the Title Page as "We Rise Again: More Stories of Hope and Resilience from Nova Scotia During the Covid-19 Pandemic" ?  
 + 
 +2) What should I do with these images? Since they don't seem entirely decorative, I'm thinking of cropping out the four images and inserting them into the Title Page (with alt-text). I've never seen an edited title page with images like this, though, so I'm not 100% on this move. The logo I would replace with text and I would not include the plaid background. 
 + 
 +A:  
 +  - Yes! 
 +  - They are all decorative. So you can remove them. And yes, replace the logo with text.

-A: Usually we can just delete the Cover Page image (as there's usually no content other than title and author, which is often already on the Title Page). In the case of A Boy Named Queen, the Cover Page is on a book jacket that has a summary of the book. We can keep the summary and put it at the end of the book (before Terms of Use) with a heading 1 called Book Summary. We don't need to keep the Cover Page (as the book title and author are already in the Title Page section).
