Unclear on the concept[edit]

I'm finding that this category is hard to pin down, as to what should be included - it looks like it's a catch-all stub category for Category:Science fiction short stories, Category:Science fiction short story collections, and Category:Science fiction anthologies. I started a discussion about the {{sf-book-stub}} vs {{sf-novel-stub}} distinction over at Stub sorting/Discoveries; please feel free to weigh in there. I would like to propose either a rename of this category or new stub categories for the cats named above, rather than this nebulous (pun intended) grouping.

Or maybe...I think it would help to revise the category description for Category:Science fiction books sf-book-stub to read: "This category is for articles about [science fiction] books which are not novels - for example, anthologies, [short stories, novellas], etc." and leave "reference works" out of it. Maybe refer users to Category:Literary criticism. ♥ Her Pegship♥ 04:23, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
