Can we please start making a list of references (books, journal articles, newspaper articles, etc.) that are cited by the book? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Walrabbit (talk • contribs) 21:37, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to clean up this page, particularly to condense the chapter summary. i appreciate the additions of chapter synopses, but it’s an article about the book..it should discuss ideas, themes, reception, similar works etc. Creating a chapter summary for each and every chapter is kind of a spoiler alert too. Not what Wikipedia is about. AdamTSWiki (talk) 12:08, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

After much consideration, I intend to change my approach.

I intend to

- NOT condense the chapter summary as I previously stated

- find more recent articles if any

- test that all citations links are still live and verify that the citation comports with the article

- Reduce the citations (if possible)

- Roll up categories in the "See also" sections into a higher level AdamTSWiki (talk) 23:10, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
