Fiction Books[edit]
Should we make articles on certain fiction novels? Please chat me at my talk page. My talk page-Editor028
Best source for date of first publication[edit]
For the article Icebreaker (non-fiction book), I'm interested in this book: Suvorov, Viktor. Le brise-glace [The icebreaker] (in French). Translated by Berelowitch, Madeleine; Berelowitch, Vladimir. Olivier Orban. ISBN 978-2-85565-478-2. OCLC 461996651.
A 1990 translation/republication says it was first published in 1988. All other sources, such as Amazon, Worldcat, Google Books, and a 1990 review article say 1989. What's most reliable? I wouldn't care for the purposes of citation, but I wonder what year should be specified in the article text itself. Daask (talk) 18:16, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Daask, I'd use 1989, though there is a case for listing both (or creating a footnote that explains the discrepancy). WorldCat alone is the source most often referenced on Wikipedia for dates like this, though WorldCat can potentially miss earlier publications. A good next step would be to request a copy of the title and/or copyright pages (if they exist) to corroborate the date. I try to use reviews where possible. This one uses 1989. czar 18:15, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
FAR for The Slave Community[edit]
I have nominated The Slave Community for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets the featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" in regards to the article's featured status.
