Hello! I'm new to Wikipedia and I noticed that an ISBN needs to be added to this article. As I read it, I also noticed that the introductory paragraph has some external links (which are supposed to go at the end of the article?) Would anybody have a problem if I made these changes?

I just realized that all of works are hyperlinked to other websites. I also realized that they are not there as cited sources but as selected works of David Lyon's so they shouldn't be formatted like a cited book. From what I have gleaned from other other author articles is that books are not hyperlinked to outside sources nor are ISBN's given if they are listed in the selected works part of the article. For this reason I don't think that the ISBN requirement is necessary. Citations for the body of the text might be necessary, however and in this case they should be completed in the cite book format. Is this correct? DenyerG (talk) 22:02, 23 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
