Untitled[edit]

I added the cleanup-rewrite tag for the impartial language used in the article. Further, the article should be expanded as the subject seems to be of some importance. J Martin 20:18, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category Error[edit]

Goonan is not a British SF author. She's American. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 63.138.45.98 (talk) 00:14, 1 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Has been corrected shortly afterwards in this edit. --Oefe (talk) 21:27, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Literary criticism[edit]

Wikipedia is not a venue for literary criticism. This biography should limit itself to biographical details and a very short, neutral description of her genre. Text like:

Her work rewards the careful reader with passages of great descriptive power and beauty.

is entirely inappropriate. All unsourced material will be removed shortly. -Will Beback · † · 21:08, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Has been removed in this edit. So I think we can consider this as resolved. --Oefe (talk) 21:21, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Place of Residence[edit]

I think she and her husband sold the Lakeland house a couple of years ago and that they now split their time seasonally between Taverner, FL and Pigeon Forge, TN. --69.124.56.44 11:57, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography[edit]

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section:

Cite templates will be used where possible.
Tables may be used to organise short stories, poems and/or book reviews.
I prefer capitalization and punctuation to follow the standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, rather than "title case".
Links (either direct or indirect) to potentially unreliable or incomplete digitised copies and to booksellers may be removed.

This is a work in progress; feel free to continue. Sunwin1960 (talk) 05:10, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
